    I seem to have lost the plot.
    Somewhere along my zed two journey I seem to have been side tracked and find myself on zed one again.
    I just couldn't help myself, again. I got my hands on this little lot.
    GT600's and 550cc Nismo injectors.

    Chris is going to throw in a shift kit and the hks dumps I have and I was wondering if it would be a good move to throw these on and get another set for zed two later while we have it apart.

    I don't want to go too crazy as I'll leave that to happen on zed two.
    Any suggestions welcome, but not too big please.
    By the way, I'm going to use the re-coned heads off my built motor as their not ported or polished and use the old heads to do up.

    Looking good mate and 555s will give you plenty of fuel for those turbos.

    Are you doing a rebuild or just bolt on upgrades?

    I reckon as a mod platform those turbos/manis/dumps, manual cams, injectors and nistune and leave the rest alone! Oh and good IC's with factory sized inlets/outlets. Go with a good conditon OEM radiator and stay with the factory clutch fan and shroud.

    Ross racing damper or factory harmonic balancer, stock pulleys, OEM flywheel. Get a decent cushion button clutch like Exedy or similar.

    It would be super smooth, easy to tune, easy to drive, plenty of fun....

    If you're going all out on the other car I reckon focus on driveability with this one rather than squeezing every last drop of top end HP.
