Raj's 370Z BUILD

Dragon_Ball_Z · 12-18-2014, 03:52 AM

I'm not sure if this even counts as a mod, but I installed O2 extenders. Awhile back I installed my berk HFC's and they kept throwing a SES light pretty much every time i got past 5k. I did a test run and the extenders seem to work. 35$ from ebay shipped.

Glad to see the O2 extenders solved the CEL issue. I'm about to install some HFCs and have the same concern. Let us know if the problem pops back up.

Will do, I would advise going ahead and buying O2 extenders. I got the ones with a 90 degree angle so it might help trick it better. I can send you a link in a pm if need be. They work great so far.

Done. They actually came with the HFCs I ordered, so I should be in good shape. I was debating as to whether or not I should install the extenders, but seems like a no-brainer at this point. Again, thanks for posting this info and good luck with your ongoing mods!

OP, did you get that airbag issue resolved?

Dragon_Ball_Z · 12-19-2014, 01:46 AM

No MJB I haven't, my car is down to get some goodies painted

I'll post pics Saturday/Sunday upon reinstall

in going to look into the connector under the seat first before I take it in. I hope the connector is loose so I don't have to take it in.

Well. I'm throwing codes for high flow cats left and right. Not even pushing the car throwing a code every 20 miles or so. O2 extenders didn't work for me. Not sure what to do next.

Man, sorry to hear that. Seems like it may be time for a tune?

Dragon_Ball_Z · 12-22-2014, 07:42 PM

Yea, I'm trying to get an exhaust, intake plenum, and headers before that. I'm not sure why HFCs throw a code so easily.

So recently I took my door handles, tail lights, fog light, and spoiler light to a paint shop and got them blacked out. The door handles are color matched to G41 Magnetic black. The rear end is painted black a little darker than my liking but they still look great. The removal process was simple for the fog light and door handles. A little bit of work for the tail lights. The spoiler light was an absolute PITA!!! It took me about two hours to reinstall because of the double sided tape and an hour to get it off. Yea I know, I take a lot of pictures. I also went ahead and replaced the reverse lights from Superbright LED's. They look 10x better. Left is old, right tail is the new LED installed.

The process was really simple to remove and reinstall, just the keyless entry bolts were a little tricky not to strip. They look great overall. If anyone does this process, you can roll up your windows and lock your car, to unlock it just hold down the unlock button to roll the windows back down.

These new lenses just look a lot better than the factory ones. They also let more light through

Did you ever get this sorted out, or is it still throwing codes?
