I paid more than that for the exhaust to gain about the same. Do it!

Do you have a lot of e85 stations around there?

GF made corn chowder last night. I have lunch for today. It was amazing. Although she wanted wine and took it upon herself to "buy a bottle".... She bought yellowtail. I was a little sad.

On a happier note, I'll be back in the green by the end of the year. Sets back my mod plans for the Z a little. Oh well, life always finds a way.

only thing i'm worried is that no one has had it for a long time on their Z. idk if there are any after effects or something. i don't want my engine going bad on me

there is 1-2 on my way from and to work... not sure if i've seen one that's a few minutes away from where i live, but i never paid attention to it. but there are a couple 15-20 min from where i live for sure.

eastwest2300 · 09-22-2015, 08:06 AM

If you stick to a consistant 50/50 blend. It won't hurt a thing. If Subarus, corvettes, moostangs, and cobalts can run on it. Our N/A Z's def can without harming anything.

Or go ask some of the GT-R guys. Pretty sure some of them do.

eastwest2300 · 09-22-2015, 08:07 AM

good luck though duuude... go all in, or stay away..

you can go back.. just swap the gtr injectors with the z ones and have a tune again and you're back

eastwest2300 · 09-22-2015, 08:08 AM

Leingod · 09-22-2015, 08:09 AM
