Koyo rad off of amazon:
Amazon.com: Koyo Radiator - Hyper V-Series - 350Z - - - VH021568 - ALL: Automotive Amazon.com: Koyo Radiator - Hyper V-Series - 350Z - - - VH021568 - ALL: Automotive

It works pretty good. temps will creep after some idling but other than that it works well.

Fans are just two 12" pullers. Need to make a shroud but as of now it works well.

It's DBW. So its just wires running from the pedal to the TAC module, then from there to the TB. There isn't much to picture, sorry .

You'll get there. Just keep asking questions and it'll all be easier.

In your opinion do you think the Procharger system from a Gto will clear the head light assembly? I know if i use the one I have from the Silverado it will hit the hood. So my other option is to convert to the Gto setup.
