No, it is too cold in my igloo.

I actually just got in...started sorting out all the components for all these kits that need to be shipped out. I will probably end up going over everything about seven more times before boxing it up. A bit on the OCD side.

Will have to stop by and pick up a few more small things tomorrow. All the turbos, BOV's, wastegates, fuel injectors, and exa pumps, few more oil pan spacers...ect were ordered today. These are high $$ items that I don't like to sit on, and they are usually only about two weeks out from the manufacturers.

I still have to fabricate a few down pipes to mate up to the OEM exhaust system since some of your chose to go that route. Other than that everything is built, and ready to go.

I am also CDO (in alphabetical order, like it should be). I have nothing but confidence that my kit and everyone else's will ship as ordered.

GaleForce · 01-31-2014, 05:22 AM

I was around 7.5l of oil. I have the V.1 oil cooler.

m3chhawk · 01-31-2014, 09:17 AM

I am at ~7.5L holding steady with the larger cooler.

With all the issues others are having with 'other' kit manufacturers (really just one), I don't understand why people aren't beating down Sasha's door begging for this kit. As a consumer if you are looking for the what you would expect as customer service, Sasha's picture should be next to it on Wikipedia.

Has the fitment been tested/confirned on a g37 6mt yet?

jlo370z · 02-01-2014, 11:56 AM

bp guys, everyone upgrade there clutch prior to installing the kit? i know its a good idea, what did you put in? did you do flywheel same time?

m3chhawk · 02-01-2014, 12:01 PM

Southbend Stage 3 daily with OEM flywheel. Installed well before turbo install to ensure break-in.

I would recommend dynoing with the new clutch with it broken in. Should call up project X to see what they recommend for a clutch. If I had to do it again, I would not go with southbend because of the break in period. 1000 miles to break in...

I did the BP kit install myself then brought it to project X to let them look it over. Then had them put in the new clutch and flywheel.

You probably will experience slipping with the stock clutch at 500whp.

pm me what they charged you for the clutch install.

this was my plan as well. install kit, then take it to them for the clutch/tune

I did it prior.

Southbend stage 3 clutch and lightened flywheel, 24lb i think. I didn't go with the lightest flywheel because I didn't want all the chatter. Also HD CSC and replaced the CMC. The CMC is a must. My car only had 6000 miles on it. The guys that did my clutch didn't bother changing the CMC, it failed before I got home from the shop. I ended up installing it myself and everything has been good since.

Talk to Joe @ Zspeed. His customer service is up there with Sasha's.

I would install the new clutch and flywheel before the turbo install. Then break it in before dyno tuning the car, using the base tune. It's only 800 miles if I recall. Then giver hell on the dyno

jlo370z · 02-01-2014, 12:45 PM

800 miles, is 3 months for me LOL
