Questions On Mods

ChrisWindisch · 12-23-2015, 04:50 PM

Basically, if I were to line up with another 370z with Full Exhaust/Intakes I want to have an advantage on them. But I don't want to pay 2000 to have a very very small advantage.

I do not believe I am going to go FI on this car..It is a daily and I have seen FI kits put people out of their cars for much too long haha. I know of the diminishing upgrades but I have done quite a bit of research on these items and I am still in the air with them. As you said that pulley is a eh eh mod.

Thanks for the quick input!

Like it was said. Skip the pulley. Finish up your mods, then go for a tune. Tune last. Why tune it twice.

It looks like you practically have a full build NA setup. Why did you not go for the manifold/TBs?

The M manifold doesn't thrill me. Thinking about the Z1 set-up. Maybe spring. Waiting to see other options for the throttle bodies. I match ported my upper and lower manifolds myself. Just never did a write up on it.

Do you see much of a difference with the upper/lower manifolds ported? I am also reading on a debate between 3.9 and 4.08 gears.

Going to have to upgrade the gears soon right

?

I did all of my mods then dynoed. So everything was together. Couldn't tell if one mod did good or not. If you do gears. Get a good LSD.

Any recommendations on the LSD? ATM I am rocking a VLSD due to Sport model.

EPs tuning are coming out with 70mm TB's and rjm has an R35 manifold conversion but you have to get rid of the strut bar. Couple other companies are in the "process of making an billet piece. WIsh CJM would create an manifold similar to the badass DE manifold.
