    Sup everybody,
    ZCON 09 was a huge success and getting to meet so many ppl from the Z community and other vendors was a real treat. Steve Millen came out and it was pretty cool to see an icon of Nissan Racing mixing it up with the best of us.

    Matt (Matt Z Garage) & I also wanted to formally say it was really nice to meet and converse with all the guys from Z1, Kuah from SPL, Kyle from IPP, the guys from Cobb Tuning, Rick aka Halo, Mike aka collegeboy, Tim aka Woody, All the AMS guys and all the others. I look forward to seeing everyone again at the next ZCON. Hopefully some of you Aussie guys can make it across the pond and mix it up a little with us next year.

    Attached are a few images of the event from my booth area. I didn't have much time to go out and mingle with the car show folks so I snapped a few images from my point of view. If anyone has any questions regarding parts or anything just shoot me a PM/email.

    Is it just me, or did they find the 2 ugliest showgirls in the world and put them in those last 2 photos? Surely it was done as a joke? ... >.<

    If you guys are really interested in obtaining his kit drop him an email. His name is Matt Pool he owns/operates Matt Z Garage. www.mattzgarage.com great guy to deal with and very helpful. I believe he is having 10 sets being made as we speak. I don't know final price but I do know they are under $1000 USD

    I didn't hire the females out there. Believe it or not those were the only two worth looking at honestly. I don't know your taste in women but I can assure you that the redhead was the best looking one out of any of them. Regardless the first image they took with the enigne was for a reason. The owner is in Iraq fighting in the war. I wanted him to get a feel for ZCON while he is out there. Besides...his engine that I'm building will be making in excess of 1500HP.

    Overall though...everything there went really well.

    Actually Z1 only made 836rwhp at 36psi...they made their total number with NOS. The numbers I'm planning on producing is with boost alone. My customer isn't in competition with Z1 or any other company. He wants to do this for himself. he has the budget and the mindset...so I am doing what he wants to do.

    So when you say 'he is fighting in the war', what you really mean is 'he is into contract security' :)

    Looking forward to seeing 1500hp :eek::cool::zlove:

    Ugly?

    The red head is smoking and the brunette is really cute!

    What's wrong with you guys? I guess you're Aussies and only pay attention to blondes?

    You must be blind!

    i'd rather slam my dick in a door frame than touch them.



    + 1 on mikeys statement. is that rail across the plenum to hold the coilpacks and neaten the throttle cables or what? looks amazing.

    That rail hold the fuel rail on so fuel doesn't piss out everywhere :p It's a top feed setup, so unlike stock sidefeeds the injectors don't have little individual caps to hold them on.



    And no dick slamming in the door frame for me :p

    They were running those engines on methanol and paint stripper and were only used for qualifying at 1500hp. I'll be interested to see how long it lasts before it goes bang... Anyone want to develop a billet block? :D
