Any chance this crash bar would be capatible with BP's kit? Would like that option as well

I am going to talk to Tony after thanksgiving to get some measurements to see if it will work with the BP kit. We will know if it fits soon.

Uh...Maybe. We would need a local *** customer to bring us their car for prototyping and fit.

If you know a local guy with the aforementioned "other" twin turbo kit, put him in contact with me. If you only need the car for a reasonable amount of time, I'd consider bribing him.

Just got back from Cali and spending a little time with the crew of FI at the Motor4toys car show on Sunday and at the shop yesterday. First off if you have not been to the Motor4toys car show and live in SoCa, you should, there some sic pieces of machinery there and to top it off Tony and his crew all there. His booth was hoppin the whole time I was there. Tony was just as Tony always is... awesome nothing like seeing my brothar from anothar mothar! I also go too meet and chill with Terrible and RoyaltyB, both their cars were on display. It was a pleasure meeting both these fine gentlemen. They both were grinning ear to ear as enthusiast eyeballed their fine looking rides and wanting to know about FI's TT kit. For Mr. RoyaltyB he was full of anticipation as he had not had a chance to drive his newly equipped car yet. He did get to drive it later that day I'm told and can't believe he hasn't posted yet!!!

It was also like going home when dropped my Nismo at SZ for the Fast500 fuel system upgrade. I always enjoy talking to Seb as he is incredibly knowledgeable. He provided me with a possible option for my ride that I will keep you all hanging on for now. LOL!!!! BTW there was a smoking hot gun metal Zele there as well.

Wishing my friends/family a wonderful Christmas season! :xmas3:

What are the downside of putting on a twin turbo kit to a 2013 370z automatic trans. I keep hearing that the transmission cant hold the power produced by the TT

IS THIS TRUE !!!!

The downside is the transmission can break.
The transmission is factory rated for just under 300TQ, which adding a TT kit will push that well beyond. Now many have had some success with adjusting the transmission lines via Uprev and staying out of 5/6/7 gears.

Now I hear F.I. is finishing up their built transmission. :driving:

Fast Intentions has been working on a 7at upgrade which should be ready soon from what I hear.

*****Fast Intentions "Twin Turbo Kit" is here*****
 
Bob, it was very nice meeting you and Amy on Sunday and again on Monday at the shop. I 100% agree with your sentiments on the Motor4Toys car show. There were some amazing vehicles on display and a great community of people there. Yes, I did get some seat time on Sunday after the car show, but I had very few opportunities to let her stretch her legs. Of the few times I was able to, she did not disappoint.

I will share my first boosted noob moment here so enjoy all :D

After lunch we left the parking lot and after getting stuck at a light right outside, I wanted to catch up to Tony's GTR, all of a sudden there was a total loss of power. I came off the gas, coasted a little bit got on it again and then again no power when I applied the throttle. Boosted noob fail number 1, remember to take the car out of valet mode. Let's just say Tony, Danny and Kevin had a good laugh; as did I. Although maybe I can blame it on the jet lag :P

After picking it up Monday, I had hoped I could get out of Simi Valley soon enough to avoid traffic. Unfortunately that didn't happen. Spent the next 2 hours in traffic. And although I couldn't fully enjoy the ride home, the car ran perfectly and the new SpecialtyZ clutch worked like a champ and wasn't at all cumbersome in the 2 hour stop and go traffic. Although I would have preferred to find out how nicely the clutch worked another way LOL. As soon as I get a chance to take her out, I will def be updating here.

Thanks again to Tony, Danny, the entire F.I. crew and Seb at SoecialtyZ for making my car exactly what it should be.

They did the first startup of the 7AT with upgraded transmission today. Car should be on the dyno very soon. Look for updates on the F.I. Facebook or Instagram page, or here also :)

Maduro 12-09-2014 04:34 PM

Thank you all - I'll keep a look out for updates from F I

Hotrodz 12-09-2014 08:05 PM

The G community should also be getting excited about this kit as well, there just happens to be one sitting at the shop now...:driving:

News of that made it all the way to Canada already. Must be a big deal. :D

Hotrodz 12-09-2014 08:46 PM

Yup, I think it's good to have quality choices....especially when one of them is Fast Intentions!

I personally think the torque converter and drive plates are the weakest parts. Besides that the planetary gears inside and the internal bands should hold pretty hefty horsepower and torque. It is basically the same Jatco 7AT used on the Infiniti QX80 and the Nissan Patrol that has a 8000 lbs towing capacity, Also, modifying the valve body with the Transco kit will absolutely help in shifting speed and response.

Ok, just took the sister for a ride around the town, these were her first words: "that is just retarded!" There was also an "oh my god" after lighting up the wheels in 2nd and not letting off until I got to 4th. Seal of approval from the sister, check. Many more thank you's to follow F.I.
