I'm going to make the most of the long weekend to give myself a good start on the black Z.

 

Obviously the main reason is to get rid of the slow NA engine... and convert to Twin Turbo power!! :tt1:

 

Over and above what modifications I had in the white Z, it will also now be sporting a lightweight Fidanza flywheel, lightweight crank pulley, Apexi AVCR boost controller, NA rear diff, new exhaust system, japspeed decats, Apexi multichecker to monitor the engine, Apexi super airflow converter, Apexi turbo timer, Apexi rev-speed meter, Greddy boost gauge, HKS oil temp gauge, HKS oil temp gauge, remapped ECU, braided clutch hose.. and probably a couple of other bits I've forgotten about. :chef:

 

So that lot along with the mods that I already had on the white one - Apexi power intake and ARC uprated side mounts with increased airflow mods in and out of 'coolers it should go quite well now! Any guesses on approx BHP?! :confused1:

 

Oh and theres also an aftermarket front bumper and rear spoiler to go on too... :ph34r:

 

Excited? no didn't think so, but I AM!! :tt2:

some tasty mods there, nice one also pm sent!!

Sounds sweet. Looking forward to progress reports.

Sounds like it will be a good one :thumbup1: Could you let me know how you get on with fitting the apexi multichecker? Just got one last night on ebay cheap!

oooh did you? how much did you get it for?:cool2:

yep would love to see a detailed post on how to link the multichecker up etc (can it be idiot proof for me though) :)

£66 and from a uk seller :cool3: I nearly bought that nissan power meter with the green screen but im so glad I didn't now.

bargain! paid £100 for mine and that was cheap.

 

I did have a manual for it, just went to open it and the file doesnt work? I'll have a hunt around the net for it.

Think I got lucky with it being a holiday and only a 3 day auction.

 

I had a file for the apexi safc that did the same lol!

theres a site that gonzo showed me which has 1000s of files on, you have to pay to subscribe, OR upload a file of your own which allows you temporary access to download what you want! I'll see if I can find the site again. ;)

Good luck mate, sounds like you've got your work laid out in front of you. :hammer:

sounds great. and some tasty mods i bet you cannot wait :dance:

 

bhp guess i would say 350/370hp :)

was at work this morning, had a couple of hours on it but now having a lunch break... most things are unbolted, just the underside to do then the engine will be ready to lift out :)

 

Going to leave the gearbox in place this time though, as its already had a conversion from auto to a TT manual box :thumbup1: Will upload some pics in a bit!
