Yay! Glad the brakes are in. Enjoy them dude, they served me well.

Man go with open dump setup on your TT. I loved it when I had it on my 350.

kkruel55 · 04-15-2011, 08:26 PM

Hey man interested in hearing how the build is going. How is that stage 4 clutch?

Vinny · 04-19-2011, 07:24 AM

Hey man, The clutch is awesome. I have nothing but great things to say about it. It's stiff and can handle the power, but not a pain in the a** to DD. The heavy duty CSC still acts up every once in a while, I'm taking my car back in to the shop that did the install on monday to fix it + have a checkup of the whole kit. At the same time, they will give me a high boost setting on my EVC-6, and hook up my turbo timer (we were missing the module for keyless go)
After I get that taken car of, it's off to the dyno for me! I can't wait to see what my Z can do, it sure feels like a beast already..

Update! Added pics and updated parts list.

modme · 01-15-2012, 05:03 PM

Any reason you ordered the stage 1 short block? Something happened to the stock block?

modme · 01-15-2012, 05:16 PM

Also, how is the electronic exhaust cutout working for you? Any leaks?

Vinny · 01-15-2012, 05:28 PM

Nothing happened to the stock block, just got the shortblock for piece of mind, and because I'm shooting for 600whp. As for the cutouts, they are working great for me, mo leaks whatsoever. When tested on the dyno, they made a small amount of extra power (5-10whp). I do feel that the car is more responsive with the cutout closed when pulling through gears, though.

I do love having them, though. They sound fantastic (extremely loud) and coupled with the turbos, it's really unique. I love stopping at a light and herring the turbos spool down

It's a great option for me, because I rarely like making that much noise, though.

Looking good man! How is the Z holding up in the winter weather?

Vinny · 01-15-2012, 06:33 PM

Thanks man!! It's actually stored for the winter, I took those pictures right when they finished up my bumper. It went straight into storage after that!

blackbird · 01-16-2012, 02:18 PM

I drive my GTM stage 2 in the winter. 13 degrees yesterday. takes a little while for the system to be running at 14.9 on the MAF but it runs fine. No issues. Thank John at Z1 for that.

Vinny · 01-17-2012, 02:48 PM

Props to you, blackbird!!! How are you liking the TT kit? Have you gotten used to the power yet? Any future plans?

blackbird · 01-18-2012, 02:01 PM

With the TT, exhaust, suspension, brakes fascias, hood, clutch, wheels, Tints, axles, LSD and audio updates I think I'm done. I like the TT kit a lot. Had some initial sensor issues. Blew out two of them Blew the rear axle and replaced with a 2010 Nissan LSD and heavy duty axles AND had all the wires tightened. Now runs fine. The sensors said I had been at 104 MPH when I went into limp mode when I was really at 65 MPH. The RPMs would read at around 2500 but the MPH said 104. Problem with the sensors. Like I said with the wires tightened, all is well.
