Ken's z31 I wanna go fast build

[Zrbsliding]

Finally was able to reserve some time to work on the z31. Working on this jem.

[Zrbsliding]

I spray painted the back side of the cluster face so that the original digi dash face plate markings would show as the gauge back ground.

Finally mounted my power steering res and fit my hot side piping as well as turbo intake and z32 TT maf sensor.

Had to extend my tps looms to reach my new throttle body location on the plenum.

Little progress has been made.

Fabbed up a new accelerator cable bracket to mount on the throttle body flange. Stock lhd z31 cable was to short so I sourced a unit from a ka24de 240sx.

Let's see now, since my last update I have configured my iacv and aacv hose from my new intercooler piling. I trimmed my bumper to clear the piping as well as the radiator hose.

I have also been working on my heater which includes reusing the oem blower motor but fabbing a new air to water chamber utilizing a z32 heater core because of its cost being $50 compared to the $135 for a z31 unit.

The hvac system in the z31 uses an absurd amount of vacuum lines to do climate control and since my chassis is non turbo model I do not have a vacuum pump nor so I exhibit any desire to install one.

Had a An-6 feed line made up and the Aem uego showed up yesterday.

[Zrbsliding]

love it! but using the digital dash breaks my heart  keen to see it finished!

[Zrbsliding]

I promise the digit dash will live on in memory haha I was having issues with it anyway. Got some fresh paint on the belt cover and cam covers 

[Zrbsliding]

Ok so heater core box was junked infavor of a new design.  Still using the z32 core.

[Zrbsliding]

Also wired up the efan to an oem Nissan relay in my relay box and uses a coolant switch as well as an override into the cabin.

[Zrbsliding]

Hvac ducting finished. Time to get the dash in and finish gauge wiring. It's getting close!

[Zrbsliding]

Dash is back in, cluster hooked up and water temp and oil pressure located in the dash. Also wiped the dirt off that's been collecting on the windscreen the last 3.5 years.
