Wrong section and post pics of your car, instead of another website with one picture of it.

[Ed]

and welcome btw.

[thomas1168]

How do you post pics

[thomas1168]

The website posted is the company that built my car for me and this is the car they posted the entire build on their website because turbo mag featured my car

[Ed]

That's cool. those are some nice numbers.

Do you have a photobucket account?

You can upload your pictures to photobucket, or you can upload it to our site. Click on Go Advanced (Underneath the box where you type to post), Scroll down and you will see Manage Attachments. Click on it, select pictures of your car on your computer and it should upload it. Then you post and it will be posted as an attachment.

Lmk if that helps.

(AAM) and Turbo XS (TXS), our fuel delivery and engine management. I was one of the first to receive the AAM return fuel solution and race duty swirl tank fuel system. This system eliminates the OE in-tank fuel pressure regulator to provide reliable boost induced fuel needs.
With hungry 750cc RC engineering injectors clamped tightly in the AAM billet fuel rails, one fuel pump simply won’t get the job done. A Walbro GSS342 HP in-tank pump feeds the AAM swirl tank. From there, a race duty BOSCH external fuel pump sends the fuel to the engine.

The AAM team helped again when they discovered an exhaust “bottle neck” in the design of the Greddy waste gate placement. For up to around 14 psi, it wasn’t an issue, which is more than enough for most users. Once we dialed the pressure to 18 pounds, the gremlins appeared. The way Greddy has the exhaust recirculation path entering back into the stream at a 90 degree angle, caused a very strange boost response. The two exhaust flows were fighting each other. To eliminate this issue, we completely replaced the turbocharger outlets with full 3” down pipes and relocated the waste gates. The waste gates now have atmospheric outlets and command attention under full load. Imagine a jet flying by you at about the head level. Problem solved!

The TXS UTEC fuel management system is very unique. It’s a “plug and play” parallel computer that takes over all functions of fuel and ignition timing while allowing the factory computer to remain happy in control of all other functions. With newer technology and drive-by-wire throttle control of the VQ35, keeping the OE ecu in place in a necessity in road going cars. The 350z UTEC was just making its way into a few select cars across the country. We begged and begged and bribed the guys at TXS until one showed up at our door step. After a co-op session of working out the bugs with TXS tuner extraordinaire Jermain and gaining our UTEC prowess,

Car V2 is a Turbo XS certified UTEC tuner, which explains the daily drivability of the 350Z your reading about.
Tuned on the Car V2 Dynapack dynamometer, the boosted 350Z put down a healthy 500 WHP and 500 ft/lb TQ at 15 psi on 93 octane pump fuel. A twist of the BLITZ SBC-id dial and more UTEC keystroking produced a whopping 565 WHP and 576 ft/lb TQ at 18 psi still on pump gas. With VP Fuels C16 in the tank and the 18g’s at full song, this white 350z puts down an amazing 624 WHP and 674 ft/lbs TQ at 24 psi. This is over 700hp engine horse power. Understand, these power levels are realized on the stock crankshaft, cams, and no machining at all. To reiterate, the cylinder heads have not been touched. No plenum or throttle body modifications exist. The VQ starts on the first crank and runs lean and clean under normal driving duty. It's a rather well mannered vehcile, at least until you pass 50% throttle.

[AlliRae]

[AirMax95]

Now that is nice!

[_Christian_]

Not too fond of the way it looks, but it sure is a mean mafucka:goodjob:

[thomas1168]

The only downfall right now is at a nopi show we had 08 stock z rims on for the drive up and the Volk racing wheels in the truck while we were getting our spot someone had broke into the truck and stole the volk rims.

So the tires on it right now can not handle the power it really need race slicks on the rear at all times unless I want to drift the back end will kick all the wat to 5th gear

http://i120.photobucket.com/albums/o163/thomas1168/DSC00010-1.jpg

[fivex684]

Other than the seats, great looking car. The seats just don't go with anything. :goodjob:

[Captain-Obvious™]

yo....all that money in the car and you're still reppin' the stock rims???

[thomas1168]

THe car is for sale all my toys must go we have it on ebay for 36995 Carv2 spent 90000 on this car the pistons are a special proto type low compression high output you can google Car v2 350z and click on the link 700hp achieved and all of the specs are there OR go to ebay and type Twin Turbo 350z
This is a 2003 and it only has 20K miles It was a show car most of its life.

[Ed]

You spent 90k on this car?

[Mr. Clean]

wow this thread delivers after you get past the OP lol... looks good man.

[thomas1168]

yo....all that money in the car and you're still reppin' the stock rims???


Someone stole the VOLK wheels at a nopi show the rims are from a 08
PLease it make me sick to think about about it the rims and tires were 5800
I am going to leave and go cry for awhile...............

[thomas1168]

Other than the seats, great looking car. The seats just don't go with anything. :goodjob:

Man these seat are comfortable as hell! You have to see it in person the red while and carbon is hot I was going to get red flame graphic on the hood that is what started the red.

[thomas1168]

very nice... did you just move to ga? or did you just get the car back? have you come to any meets?

No we have been here for years The car was used by CARV2 they were taking it from car show to car show BECAUSE this thing with so much power is still tuned to be a daily driver on pump gas which your tuner/SHOP has to know their stuff to do this.

LET ME KNOW WHEN THE NEXT MEET IS IT WOULD BE FUN THIS CAR IS FOR SALE SO THAT WOULD BE GOOD TO GET IT SOME EXPOSURE I AM GETTING READY TO WORK ON A SKYLINE

[EJ25RUN]

I like the setup. Good choice on the wheels btw.

[thomas1168]

Not too fond of the way it looks, but it sure is a mean mafucka:goodjob:

Yea I was going to go with a full body kit and custom paint but I wanted to keep it a sleeper. I has the same kit as the 2006 fairlady 350.

With the stock hood on the car It was great everyone one would think that I just had a pipe on the car until I got on it and the 3inch 2in1 pipe and turbos start screaming

[Ed]

What model skyline?

[boosted b]

nice ride man

[thomas1168]

What model skyline?

R34

The One that is racing my car Now dont get me wrong the car is still sick fast

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=si1CCtsZUq4

[Dwisforme05]

sick z!

[thomas1168]

Any one whom has been a part of the LA underground racing circut know that a sleeper is the most lethal weapon you can have when racing for money you get alot of the external racers. They figure wow he does not even have aftermarket rims on the car (it cant be that upgraded) mean while my 7000 rims are home in the garage so they do not get a mark on them before the next car show. It has been alot of fun destroying pretty cars. But one thing that is a must is very very good tires that will grip in cold and hot weather

[Dwisforme05]

well i think your BIG ASS INTERCOOLER gives your secrete away, just a little bit lol.

[Josh...]

The car looks very well put together, but is it just me or does that seem like a hell of a lot of power loss?

[thomas1168]

well i think your BIG ASS INTERCOOLER gives your secrete away, just a little bit lol.

LOL Let me know If you hear of a meet this weedend You are right the sound of the engine gives it away also..

[thomas1168]

The car looks very well put together, but is it just me or does that seem like a hell of a lot of power loss?


YES But CARV2 the way they set the new suspension it is not as bad as you would think for a light car also when I put the 3000 tirs back on to race it grips good but they are too expensive to drive around on just to show off

[Christopherr]

I'm orignally from Newnan.

Sweet 350...looks beasty.

My brother still lives in Newnan (Homer Simpson - User Name) with a S2K.

[Kyle]

Outside looks like complete ass.

What were you thinking?

[G.C]

I like how it looks. nice.

[Ronsam2006]

Very nice car man! Lot of work put into it I see..

[CHADbee]

nice car, not really sure how i feel about the owner.

i like to see some people on this forum race you 1/4 mile from a dig cause i bet as it sits it runs 12's

[nismo_b14]

nice and clean z33

[RL...]

I love it!!! badass car:goodjob:

[Tommy_T]

niceee Z. im in newnan, but dont think ive ever seen you around.

[b13isme]

nice ride

[Nissan Sean]

Z looks great man! you should come out to one of the 350z/g35 meets...pm me for more info. btw you intercooler looks kinda small? especially for 600+ hp. good numbers though..post a dyno sheet please?

[FlyingStroke240]

I've seen this car in person, great guy and good looking car.

p.s: i saw u at the aap in palmetto and also in newnan.

[Tree]

looks damn good

[Nerdsrock22]

dang. I've got a buddy looking to get a Z right now...but not for 36k...

For the record, there is a warrantied stage 2 350z for sale at Larry Rich Nissan in Newnan right now for 22k. Its a beast...

[Atlblkz06]

I would have kept it as stock looking as possible, but thats just me.

Nice setup!

[Jonflip29]

Very nice Z. Come out to our Z/G meets.

[thomas1168]

Thanks to everyone that is cool enough to say something nice only a true dick head would ever say something negitive about someone eles car on this kind of site I do not care if your car is worth 5000 or 150000 your car means alot to that person, I put alot of work it to this just like anyone that spend the time to build any car.

THIS IS G+FOR THE MEMBER THAT ASKS FOR A DYNO NOW THIS IS 17 PSI with PUMP GAS 93

[thomas1168]

2004 that is all that was really out there it will be changed I am waiting for my boty to finish this program for my mac power bbok to hook straight up to the CPU

[BTEC]

im definitely digging the car but thats an awful lot of claimed power out of such small turbos and 8.5:1 compression.

*edit* and 750cc injectors

i disagree about magazines lying. But anyway, u could post anybodys graph. i could post a graph saying my car makes 700whp with pics on a d-series turbo kit with home depot intercooler pipes. I just said kinda high claims with those parts. if ur car does make that then cool and congrats. Just for shits and giggles bring it to Mainstream for a run on the dyno. If it puts down 699.999 whp ill pay for the dyno.

WHY CANT ANYONE BE PROUD OF THERE CARS ?????? WHY ARE THERE SO MANY HATERS ON THIS SITE HOW IS IT THREATING YOU THAT MY CAR HAS 718HP WE ARE NOT RACING

THIS IS MY CAR ON THE COVER OF TURBO MAG AND WHY IN THE HELL WOULD I POST SOMEONE ELSES DYNO

OR BETTER JET SMART ASS MEE ME AT z1 motors sports tommorow
OR ARE ANOTHER YOU OF THOSE DUDES ON THIS SITE THAT LIKES TO TALK SHIT ON YOUR KEYBOARD
and bring the money for the Dyno email and let me know what time I would love to get my car tuned for free...... And call Chris 770.838.7777 first thing in the morning and make a appointment for tommorrow tell them that you are coming down with thomas and the white turbo mag z for a dyno they know the car very well.

i thought he only claimed 624@the wheels.

[thomas1168]

i thought he only claimed 624@the wheels.

I did only quote 624. This is my first thread that what gets me going... I am not mad........ ;) I just hate dude who talk shit...... I am not the only one whom puts tons of money and work into a vehicle.
I thought this site would be cool to talk tech and mods and different ways to get more horse without giving up drivability ect.

But you have a bunch of dudes here that just act like assholes because they do not have the car you have or what ever reason.... it took me 7years to get this car and alot of money and work.......

[OUTLAW]

CONGRATS ON YOUR BUILD. WOULD LOVE TO OWN A R32 ONE DAY. BUT YOU BETTER GET USE TO THE SHIT TALKIN FROM IA. AS LONG AS YOU HAVE SOMETHING NICER THAN SOMEONE ELSE THEY WILL HATE YOU FOR IT.

[thomas1168]

CONGRATS ON YOUR BUILD. WOULD LOVE TO OWN A R32 ONE DAY. BUT YOU BETTER GET USE TO THE SHIT TALKIN FROM IA. AS LONG AS YOU HAVE SOMETHING NICER THAN SOMEONE ELSE THEY WILL HATE YOU FOR IT.

Thanks man :D

I noticed that quick. But please tell me that these same idiots do not go to the meets??????

I need to replace the rims and tires re wire the cpu and take out the control panel a friend is working on a touch screen computer for the engine man system other than that the car needs nothing maybe change the body in a couple year.
But I do have it for sale so I can work on my skyline..... so i am holding off the new owner would have to buy rims and tires and would not really have to touch the engine

[DirtyMechanic]

ohs nos....




nice build for 2004. and im glad its still runinng but that car needs some tender loving care and upgrades now. those number seem really high for what you have.




But 18psi twin 18gs and 750 RCs does NOT equal 600whp maybe 550....... and why the FUCK would you have a utec anything above 550whp... that is just plan scarey to say the least... in 2004 there was F-con V-Pro a minium for 550whp Zs and Gs... dont mean to bash but seriously its 2008 almost 2009... ungrade that EMS to haltech or F-con at least. and those injectors are probably maxed out... you have the fuel pump system(AAM:gay:) but not need for anything below 1000cc.


get some 275-305 toyo R888s and that power will hook believe me. it will hook about 75-90% in first and all in second...


Nissan Sean WTF! GTFO noob that intercooler is good for just about anything those stock 18Gs and the upgraded 20Gs can push out. please dont talk about performance about the Gs and Zs please please i beg you.

Dude, i dnt know why ur getting all bent out of shape. i kinda figured me telling u ill payfor the dyno time to see ur car put dwn the power wouldmake u mad but that wasnt what i was going for at all. I said congrdaulations for making that power if u did, i just thought those injectors were too small and the turbos as well. if u dnt want to dyno it that perfectly fine, if you do then like i said ill pay for it. either way im not calling you a liar. it doesnt matter if u make 5 whp or 500000000000000whp.

i know russel at Z1 more than u know. He actually offered me a job back in the days. but ne way, Mainstream is my prefered shop for several reasons. Im not calling anybody til me and you figure out if YOU are just a shit talker or not. I could say alot more shit to piss you off but since i like your car, your new, and i dnt feel like being mean yet ill let you slide this time. But dnt be so quick to think im dogging ur car. Trust me, ull know when im talking shit to you. By the way, im not ur average e-thug. I have no problem driving to newnan to say any of this shit to ur face. Exit 47 close enough to you?

YOU SAID I WAS POSTING A FALSE DYNO
AND THE TAKING SHIT COMMENTS WERE DIRECTED TO OTHER COMMENTS IN THIS THREAD>>>>>>>>THAT WERE UNCALLED FOR
I AM TRYING TO FIND MEETS NOT GET DOGGED OUT ON MY FIRST POST.

What happened to you paying for the dyno you know someone down there it?????? should be easy to get in.

BECAUSE FOR SOMEONE TO THREATEN SOMEONE THEY DONT EVEN KNOW AFTER THEY CALLED THEM A LIAR..
THATS JUST DUMB YOU DONT EVEN KNOW ME....
BUT THAT SHOWS ME HOW YOUNG AND IMMATURE YOU ARE
INSTEAD OF BEING A MAN AND CALLING Z1 MOTORS SPORT
AND AFTER THEY TELL YOU THE CAR IS THE REAL DEAL POST A COMMENT


I CALLED YOUR BLUFF ABOUT THE DYNO AND YOUR GOING TO COME TO EXIT 47 BEAT ME UP...... IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH YOU
GO TO Z1 I WANT MY DYNO FIRST........... AND THEN YOU CAN TALK SHIT IN PERSON OR TRY AND DO WHAT EVER YOUR SAYING>>>>

email me at [email protected]

YOUR dead on you know your stuff here is what I got..

I have it set at 18psi and pump 93 which explains the daily drivability of the 350Z I put down 507 WHP and 500 ft/lb TQ at 15 psi on 93 octane pump fuel. RE dialing the BLITZ SBC-id dial and resetting the (AS YOU SAY PEICE OF SHIT UTEC) produced 565 WHP and 576 ft/lb TQ at 18 psi still on pump gas.
With VP Fuels C16 in the tank and the 18g’s at full, this white 350z puts down 624 WHP and 674 ft/lbs TQ at 24 psi.


The turbos were modified by carv2 we discovered an exhaust “bottle neck” in the design of the Greddy waste gate placement.
For up to around 14 psi, it wasn’t an issue, which is more than enough for most users. Once we dialed the pressure to 18 pounds, the problems appeared. The way Greddy has the exhaust recirculation path entering back into the stream at a 90 degree angle, caused a very strange boost response.

YES YES I know....i cant do a perfect build everytime.... but this car is for sale and the price is low enough for whom ever buys its to do some small mods.
I want to get back to my skyline..... But before it sells email me some info on those systems your right the utech sucks misfire codes unless your running 110 at all times

The turbos were modified by carv2 we discovered an exhaust “bottle neck” in the design of the Greddy waste gate placement.
For up to around 14 psi, it wasn’t an issue, which is more than enough for most users. Once we dialed the pressure to 18 pounds, the problems appeared. The way Greddy has the exhaust recirculation path entering back into the stream at a 90 degree angle, caused a very strange boost response.
The two exhaust flows were fighting each other. To eliminate this issue, we completely replaced the turbocharger outlets with full 3” down pipes and relocated the waste gates. The waste gates now have atmospheric outlets and command attention under full load.


YES YES I know....i cant do a perfect build everytime.... but this car is for sale and the price is low enough for whom ever buys its to do some small mods.
I want to get back to my skyline..... But before it sells email me some info on those systems your right the utech sucks misfire codes unless your running 110 at all times

Utec is like considered my first EMS to the VQ boards. the interface is .... to say the least is archaic. transition from vacuum to boost can be... problematic, and rough. and as you know misfire codes, and maybe hot start ups. the 16x16 resolution is well... 16x16 a little weak for 500+hp F-Con V-Pro and Haltech is 32x32 which you can lower to 16x16 or 8x8 if need be...which for boost more is better. i highly suggest you dont take those turbos over 20psi they fizzle out anything close to that. your just cooking the air and not really gaining anything other than high intake temps.

The wastegates have been known for about 1 bar before you need open dumps or relocation of the wastegates to further down the exhaust. thats a old old problem, its like common knowledge now. if you havent had a quality tune in the last 6 months or ever really... id just run on wastegate for now. or maybe 12psi depending on your springs.

WHAT DO YOU RECOMMEND>>>> Tune wise
I took it to Z1 last month and they said that I would be wasting money because my air fuel is dead on and after testing it with 110 they said it is running strong. this is a 2003 but keep in mind it only has 20k miles on it it has been treated like a baby. But I do need to dial in the SBC id that I am still learning.

[DirtyMechanic]

it doesnt matter how many miles are on the car. how many are on the tune. but if it looks safe then i dont see a reason for a retune either. but then again its Z1... but thats just me. PM sent too.

[thomas1168]

How do you end these posts.......
please PM me.. to everyone that was cool thank you

Dirty mech thanks for the great info it was badly needed.. still many questions I will PM

[DirtyMechanic]

^ you mean close the thread? i dont think YOU can but i dont think there is a need for it. like you or someone else said they are just jealous you can dump that kind of money into a hobby.

[Motivation]

Love the car man. Looks clean and looks like a lot of hard work and money was put in it. Congrats on it and props to you.

I don't think anyone is trying to be mean to you. When you make a public post on the internet, it's bound to get picked apart by someone. That's just forum life. You should try to get used to it. You just have to learn to roll with the punches and be able to back up your claims with facts that make sense. Not everyone is as tactful as you would like them to be, but I think a lot of the technical questions are inevitable – especially when you post a car with X amount of power, $90k in it and a Utec :) This IS a car forum with a lot of knowledgeable people on it and when something doesn't add up, we all want to know how you did it. It's a discussion board....thus meant for discussion....which is a back and forth exchange. There are a lot of ppl on here with 350's and maybe they want to know how you did it so they can do it to their car :???:

P.S. Our shop has been in countless magazines (Batlground) and we know countless magazine peeps. They don't lie per say, they just take you at your word. It's not like they come out and do an engine pull apart to inspect to see if you are not embellishing. I have had a lot of friends on the cover of magazines.....and it's not always the whole truth and nothing but the truth. That's fact.

No I am feeling you. That is exactly what I posted for I had a great disscusiion with dirty mech and he recommended a good shop to dyno that what I am on here for but I am hearing you.. Keep in mind I am not a young kid trying to show off I am just pleased with my new car thats it give me some info on your shop there are some things that need done before I sell it.

I'm glad you understand. I know more than anyone how hard it is to deal with keyboard cowboys. You don't know me, but I am a chick who has been on TV and in magazines and has had a lot of fast cars that sometimes don't make sense to everyone. Every one of my cars have pioneered power and trust me, everyone wanted to try to call me out on it. Sometimes it's just innovation and there is nothing wrong with that. Just keep your cool and don't let the shit get to you. I'm not always one to talk, but in my old age, I have learned it's not really getting my blood pressure up over it. It's totally cool to be excited about your new car. I feel that. Just be prepared for the haters and don't give anyone the pleasure of getting to you. Cap Locks only fuel the fire. LOL!

My shop is www.batlground.com We have a dyno and a very well known tuner. You can go to the gallery if you are interested in what cars we have.

Best of luck to you and congrats on the cover shoot. I hope you enjoy the car!

Very nice car! Now just take some deep breaths, ease off on the hater card, and welcome to the site.

[§treet_§peed]

eh that skyline rapped you car in that vid link you posted

[§treet_§peed]

imo i would much rather have that skyline, no offense i mean your car is still ballin and all... Susann's z is as fast if not faster and she didn't spend that much....

[RUFFIAN]

that's tight. Repped.

[neon_guy]

Great car. I'm not a fan of little intercoolers, but I'm sure it's as functional as it needs to be for you (seriously. I'm not being sarcastic...i just don't liek the way they look. i don't doubt it's relevance to teh car). I love the looks of the car though. It's very unassuming for having 3x's the hp a stock one has.

[§treet_§peed]

i still say susans is faster and she has less than half of what you got. and she is rollin on 20's

[thomas1168]

i still say susans is faster and she has less than half of what you got. and she is rollin on 20's

That is what carv2 put in the car in 04 I am a dealer I didnt pay that much for this car and I do not know susan or her car but cool...... shes rollin

[DirtyMechanic]

i still say susans is faster and she has less than half of what you got. and she is rollin on 20'slol what are you smoking do you have any idea how much Susan has dropped into that Roadster... lol yeah a lot more than you think and a lot more than thomas. any idea how many time Z1 popped her motor, before its current stroker form.... lol:lmfao: :lmfao: :lmfao: :lmfao: :lmfao: :lmfao: :lmfao: :lmfao: :lmfao: :lmfao: :lmfao:

YOU dont even know me dude and your calling me a liar.
YOU SAID I WAS POSTING A FALSE DYNO
AND THE TAKING SHIT COMMENTS WERE DIRECTED TO OTHER COMMENTS IN THIS THREAD>>>>>>>>THAT WERE UNCALLED FOR
I AM TRYING TO FIND MEETS NOT GET DOGGED OUT ON MY FIRST POST.

What happened to you paying for the dyno you know someone down there it?????? should be easy to get in.

BECAUSE FOR SOMEONE TO THREATEN SOMEONE THEY DONT EVEN KNOW AFTER THEY CALLED THEM A LIAR..
THATS JUST DUMB YOU DONT EVEN KNOW ME....
BUT THAT SHOWS ME HOW YOUNG AND IMMATURE YOU ARE
INSTEAD OF BEING A MAN AND CALLING Z1 MOTORS SPORT
AND AFTER THEY TELL YOU THE CAR IS THE REAL DEAL POST A COMMENT


I CALLED YOUR BLUFF ABOUT THE DYNO AND YOUR GOING TO COME TO EXIT 47 BEAT ME UP...... IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH YOU
GO TO Z1 I WANT MY DYNO FIRST........... AND THEN YOU CAN TALK SHIT IN PERSON OR TRY AND DO WHAT EVER YOUR SAYING>>>>

email me at [email protected]
and let me know when your coming, because this time you might think about it before you theaten someone on line that you do not even know .

I wil give you my address to our dealership and you can you can

Again u have fail to comprehend the simplicity of my posts to you so let me spell it out for you:

I congradulated you onyour car and said i liked it but the parts used dnt seem like enough to make the claimed power. oh well, if im wrong it wont be the first or last time.

I never said i was coming to beat u up idiot. I was just letting u know that i am not a chicken shit and i would say anything i post to ur face if neccessary.

You didnt call anybodys bluff bc i said id pay for ur dyno run and i still will. but im not calling to ask anybody about ur car. Bring it to the dyno and show me that it does make the power u claim or stay behind ur computer posting pics and phone numbers to call ppl and ask them about the car. As a courtesy for showing up, ill pay for the run. its simple. you either come or you dnt. it doesnt matter to me like i said b4.

I never said the dyno graph u posted was fake. just the fact that anybody can post a pic of a graph and a car but until i see it put the power dwn it could be fake.

And young? im older than you think dude so if you want to start the e-bashing about being immature, shit talking and whatever else we can do that too.

I tried to be nice and even compliment u on ur car but u want to keep taking my posts to be offensive when they arent. Your gonna have a rough ride if you think ive been mean to you already.

Well you cant just throw on a huge ass intercooler on lets say 16g turbo or w.e. If you want ur car to run properly you gotta go by the size of the intercooler that you need.

By the way, sick Z brother.

I tell you what you call Susan and call me on 3 way at 770-838-7777 ext 311. We never blew any of her engines. The car came here in stock form and we installed an APS kit. Stock engine never blew she took it to a shop and had them build an engine. You need to get the story right before posting. You can talk to me at the varsity next month about it I'm a talkative person.

[carV2]

Wow. I received an email from a good freind regarding the where-abouts of our former shop car. Even though it has some less than attractive cosmetic parts on it currently, it still brings back fond memories. I miss that car.

The car was cutting edge for it's time (2004) and would most likely still give most a run for their money. I have to make it clear, back when we were developing the Z33 platform for forced induction, little to no parts were available. We were one of few in the country to spearhead a boosted 350z.

Our 350z was almost entirely a vehicle for demonstration/prototyping purposes. It was not race car. It was designed to be used on the streets (although the high power levels are not for most). 75% of our customers want us to build "street cars".

On one of the many venues where we displayed the 350z, we were approached by cheif editor Robert Choo from Turbo Magazine. He knew about the car for a while and wanted to do a feature asap. Since we already knew Andy Bui (photographer) from other feature cars we've built, it went to print soon after. We sold the car to a young gentleman from Dubai who was enrolled in DC area school. It had ~2000 miles at the time, not 20,000. I don't know where it went from there.

Since then, many advancements have been made for forced induction on the VQ platform. Some of the posters here are correct in their inquiry on the use of certain parts. Keep in mind, the parts we selected were done so mostly on the fact of availability. We played a vital role in the developement of said parts. Of course they are not the best compared to currently available components, but they allowed us to make a break through and achieve our goal at the time.

As far as certain members here not believing the dyno plots, that is simply absurd. I have unaccountable hours into developing the matrix of numbers that direct the UTEC for engine control. CARV2 played a vital role in refining the UTEC for FI'd 350Z's. Consider this, Jermaine (Black Tuner) from TurboXS and CARV2 worked into the early morning hours tuning some of the first ever 350Z turbo maps. The dyno graphs are legit. The numbers are real. It is what it is.

Since the time of the CARV2 350Z, VQ forced induction has reached incredible levels. I feel fortunate to have played a small part in this. The new owner of the car will have many smiles :D.

Thanks for all of your comments.

[Catnip]

YES But CARV2 the way they set the new suspension it is not as bad as you would think for a light car also when I put the 3000 tirs back on to race it grips good but they are too expensive to drive around on just to show off

You supposedly have 90k in the car, but $350 worth of slicks is too much?

[kte324]

that car looks good.
