Tristan, I know it is a trip but come to Nashville Fathers Day weekend and I will buy you a beverage!
While certainly not an IT build this video is pretty impressive and it is a 300ZX at VIR. (Bob Lentz)

I just hope the motor sounds like that! If I get to Nashville I'll look you up on that offer!

I love the sound of a six cylinder!!
I'm not so sure about the sound of that gearbox though!!

Since it's GT I suspect it's a custom odd-fire (common pin) forged crank. I don't think an even fire crank would last to ~8k rpm, there's just not enough meat between crank pins on 90* V6's. Only a 60* V6 would last at those kinds of rpms as an even fire forged crank ( I just loved how my 2.8 german capri used to rev out)

ok here are the log book photos: still need to do some suspension tuning and get some camber on all four wheels. But I plan on doing the March 19th Road Atlanta Test day.

Favorite tool to remove undercoating---- A curb!
"Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car and oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall, torque is how far you take the wall with you."

That may be a VQ35 from a 350z... You see in the description he states it’s a 3.5L. I could be wrong though and its still sounds amazing
Tristan... the car looks great!
