Hey everyone, I'm new here and I guess I will make an introduction about myself!
My name is Zack, I am from Nova Scotia, Canada! I'm 20, I don't have my license, and probably won't get one for a while... I love cars, I love working on them, and I love being around them.
I skateboard, BMX, play Forza and Battlefield, love beer; drink it everyday whenever it's hot out.
I'm not really sure what else to say as I am new to this!
But the thing with the license...I don't like driving in the city (what I live in), and I don't really like driving in general. I just enjoy building things and making things look good. If you can't understand then think about those who build models, it's just a hobby.
As for vehicles that I own:
1984 Nissan 300zx
1986 Nissan 300zx
2001 Acura Integra (sedan)
2000 Honda Civic (coupe)
Anything else you fellas want to know about me, just ask away!

On the real, I'm just wondering if anyone could help me out with finding dyno sheets showing the power difference between the Skunk2's Ultra Series Street & Race intake manifold?
I'm going all-motor but I'm having a hard time deciding between the both. I'm leaning more towards the Street IM because I'm not finding any dyno charts of the Race IM, plus it'll probably only be a few HP difference. If it's under 5hp then I am not paying $1k for that!
These are the things I've got so far:
B16a2 head
B18a1 block
OEM GSR timing belt
OEM GSR water pump
OEM GSR drive belts
OEM GSR long-block rebuild kit
Golden Eagle LS VTEC kit
HKS Superflow intake filter
Skunk2 Mega Power (can't remember if it's just the MP or MP R, but I believe it's a factory defect because it sounds like no other MP. Best sounding exhaust IMO) cat-back with home-made 2.5" test pipe
Head:
-BLOX cam cap seal
-Speed Factory thermal intake manifold gasket
-AEM Tru-Time Adjustable cam gears (Going to swap them out for Buddy Club)
-ARP exhaust manifold studs
Block:
-ARP head studs
__________________________________________________ _____________
Future parts:
-Buddy Club valvetrain (valves, retainers, springs)
-Buddy Club Spec IV cams
-Buddy Club Racing Spec cam gears
-Skunk2 Lost Motion Assembly
-Supertech valve guides
-Blackworks racing oil catch can
-Skunk2 Mega Power header
-ARP rod bolts
-ACL bearings
-GReddy timing belt
-Walbro 255LPH HP fuel pump
-Mishimoto radiator
Not decided on brand/model or if I should even get:
-Skunk2 Ultra Series IM (Street or Race) - After I post this I'm going to Google what IM's are recommended for N/A
-500cc injectors
-Endyn block girdle
-Low silicon pistons (12:+ compression)
-Adjustable fuel pressure regulator
-Shotpeen OEM rods
-Balanced & knife-edged OEM crank
-Large throttlebody
-Lightweight flywheel
-Password:JDM PowerChamber intake
Missing things but I'm having a bit of a brain fart ATM...
Just so you are all aware, this build will be used in a weekend warrior for drag racing. I would really like to make a track car but theirs no tracks around me that have any classes or any style of races that support this.
