I have been building this car now since I was 14 years old. Here is what it currently looks like. I am in the process of adding a Aeromotoive AFPR. My fuel pressure currently is a sad 34 psi. Once I get this hooked up and working I am going to raise the PSI up to around 55. That should help with adding more boost as well. The car currently runs 7psi. I have no track times yet. This is my project car. Every once and a while I get the urge to make it faster or just make a new part for it and it works out great. The current motor is a DOHC v6 3.4L. It has Hyperutectic pistons, lightweight lifters, APR rod bolts, Clevite 77 Bearings, Ported head, Polished crank, Bored .020 over, Oil pump mod and a few odds and ends. The plans for the future are Konis on custom coil overs, Front camber plates, Sticky 245 tires, Front and rear STB's, Front Tie bar, factory headlights back in and last but no least a full paint job. The last person that did a paint job was not that great.
Enjoy the pics.

that car is so hawt... 8=======D - - - - -
Looks amazingly clean.
Props on something def. unique.
God damn hot!!!!!
I always loved these Lumina's!
Never seen souped-up ones! Very clean and unique my friend!
very nice and clean, yes lumina's are nice I used to have a 4-door black 92 lumina........
So why did this engine never catch on for GM? We had to wait until ~2005 to get a decent DOHC V6 out of them, meanwhile nissan wipes the floor with us with the VQ
nice clean car. I'll take one with a five speed conversion please!
I have been waiting for more pictures of this car ever since the headlight thread! Was it you or a friend who made those headlights? I really wanted a set for my car
.
Your car is absolutely stunning. I almost bought a Z34 before I got my Beretta, and I still will own one someday! Very nice work!
Also, I noticed you were born 4 days before me!

Lol my name is Mark too. weird.
Anyhow yeah I remember a thread a while back about them, just wasn't sure if it was you or another person. Very cool.
I am currently using BMW headlights which create some gaps that I can live with but still bother me. So maybe someday I'll play around with a set of stock lights.
But yeah, awesome job again! That is one sweet Z34!

Love it my Bro had a Z34 same color an all I loved that car. Yes those motors were awsome but a different technology. and in that car it was tight. Change the plugs yet?
I don't know what it was but I loved the inside of that car
Oh yes the infamous rear plugs. In 91-93 the body was shorter than the 94. In 94 they made the car 6" longer, 3" of that was in the engine bay for more clearance for the spark plugs. Its a shame to see the 91-93 cause they all have a messed up hood support area cause people just take a big screw driver and pry. This is one of 3400, so its pretty rare.

yup it was funny when we changed his plugs no one ever changed the rear 3 because they couldn't figure out how to get to them. The rears were oem with 110k miles lol.
Bootyfull, simply bootyfull.

That is a nice ride.
As for the engines demise...
I'm sure the oil seal that required huge work to get to contributed to the demise of this engine. Bills were well over 1000 for the repair in my area.
Selling an oil change to a typical GM customer was tough. The bill for the belt was enough to give a cheap GM driver a heart attack. SO they`d drive it till itt broke....

this. and maybe some interior pr0n?
Sh!t I had to look at the pics again. Boner of the week.
@!#$ YES. i am glad you listened to me and finally got some damn pictures of this beast up!!! ive always loved the look of this car. z34's are awesome. i really like how clean it is and has the real dark tinted windows. however centerline storms > those rims. do you own the storms? where the hell are more pics of them if you do?
and where are the other pictures i have seen? i know ive seen some different shots in on JBO before... especially some close ups of the turbo set-up... show them beeeeotch.
plus as far as the engine demise goes i heard it takes something like 14 hours to change the damn alternator and you need to remove the passenger side fender to get to it. is that true? if so im sure that had something to do with it.
and wait a tic... the newer z34's were actually LONGER than the older ones?! wtf? you got pics of the differences? this i gotta see...
i am lost though...
