Makes sense to me, however when you look at member on the forum with the cans they look to be different than those seen on some sites. Do you know anything about this?

As for the dress up bolts, solid choice I contacted dress up bolts a few weeks back and like you said their service was less than stellar. Ended up buying some Password JDM bolts and well, let me just say the quality is about that same as I hear about their other products

. May have to go with moddiction when I buy replacements.

see this was my original problem... the first time i asked daytona racing about this... he told me they dont make it, after i persisted that they DID make it and i sent him pics he talked to top secret and then they said its a custom set up thats why it takes "2 months delivery time", im pretty much at 3 months.... my guess is that they probably made a few but it didnt sell much cuz realistically a oil catch can set up for $500 plus bucks is outrageous.... so they stopped advertising it in japan....

Check out 370Ztune.com or japanparts.com and you'll see what I mean. I think its zuperman 370 that has the TS catch cans im looking for.

the 3 inlets are what make it 370z specific..... zuperman370 indeed does have the top secret oil catch cans... ive actually begged to buy them from him because he said he took them out after the install of the FI system.... at first he said definitely

after i asked him to take pics first to make sure there was no damage before i send him the money and then he started ignoring my pm's

i waited about a month before i said faq it im going direct to top secret japan.....

hey thanks for the link bro... but i think ill wait still for the top secret ones.... i think its to late to turn back....for some odd reason i was thinking the overflow tank.... my brain just farted when i read your post... haha

simota1 · 06-08-2013, 10:06 AM

so heres the pic of my PS reservior tank....

.... sorry it took long to post a pic... i had the cap machined..... it use to say "Z" but it was a 350z "Z" it had the dots on it...... so i told one of my machinists to machine off the engraved z

i think it looks great and matches my coolant overflow tank cap....

i just placed the order about 5 minutes ago for 10 burnt titanium bolts from moddiction and also 2 burnt titanium strut flanged nuts.... ive contacted him on FB to try and find me some strut tower bolts

im pretty stoked!!!!

ANNNDDDDD!!!! i swapped out my grounding kit... took out the red and bought some 4 gauge wire.... the color i chose is graphite

freaking looks so much cleaner then the red wires before and pulls in nicely with my top secret set up...

ill probably swap out all my red radiator hoses and overflow tank hoses to all black samco hoses

its not JDM but i think its the best quality hoses... after all they only make hoses

after i install the varis hood imma leave the underside black and only paint the top part red that way when i leave my hood open people wont get distracted by the shiny red underside of the hood.... i think itll make all the titanium in my bay POP like crazy... ive been also debating on changing back my black couplers on my intakes to the baby blue ones.... i feel that ever since i changed out the couplers to black ones the intakes dont pop out as much... i think itll be a great accent and pulls in very nicely with the TI strut bar from top secret... well see...

anyways ill take pics tomorrow morning of my grounding kit...i am really happy how it turned out

scZdc · 06-08-2013, 10:25 AM

Wiggins3377 · 06-08-2013, 11:18 AM

hi iwan

its pretty much like a stillen one... BUT i use better bigger wires and made it less spaghetti wire status by taking out the excess

its a 6 point grounding kit that i make my self

ive had a stillen one in the past and the "red" wire faded like hell in less then a year and it was sooo long in some areas....
