A pic of The Beast in new surroundings!;)

It looks good but it would be better if with me:) have you seen jiz300 z it looks good but he dont know how much. I had a look at that one you sent me but i want a modded one like yours.

Thanks,and no its staying with me for a long time i hope!:D :D :p ,will keep a eye out for one for you!;) am waiting for a pic from jiz300 to oogle over!

I think you might have to wait a long time for your pic hes been trying to send them all night? worrying thing he is an aircraft engineer i hope hes off on a sicky when i next fly. would be nice if you can mail me if you see anything seen one of hes pics looks ok

Thanks Adam:)

LOL!:D :D :D :D :D :D

Very nice Tony. Unfortunately it's black = slow. LOL!

It is impossible to do a 'bolt on power figure' for almost any mod. Different mods will work very differently with each other. Another point is that while some mods don't actually increase power, they allow the engine to rev more freely, so improve acceleration in that way - this will not show on a dyno as increased power though. Anyone who tries to say a filter is worth xxxbhp and an exhaust worth xxxbhp is talkin crap imo ;)

Duffer, your talking crap again, everyone knows that a Magic Tree adds 100bhp! Apparently Zeds can wheelspin at 100mph in 4th with 2!:D

Thanks guys,thinks me will call it around stage IX to X looking at what Pete posted,not got a Boost Controller on(as yet),no ported throttle bodies/machined intake.no upratd cams,and no Nos,appart from that got everything else so cant be far off:D

Hmmm that would put you at about 500bhp???? What mods do you have?

Well Andy i will try to list the things that i think make it faster than stock,as follows#

JWT ecu

555 injectors

JWT Sports 500 Turbos

Stillen Induction

Stillen underdrive pulley set

Mogoose exhaust with de-cat pipes

Large Custom Intercoolers.

 

Cheers,Tony

Ok, depending on what boost you are running, you will be around 400hp at the crank. At full boost your turbos will be good for 500 at the crank - get a boost controller ;)

 

HTH

 

CheerZ,

 

Andy

Will do,cheers

Stage bollocks, its just all crap that the flipping computer game freaks have made up, my cars a stage 3, cos I dont know what the **** ive got, so ill say that and itll sound good. What crap.

I hate people who use stage denominations.

I am stage pissed off with crap terminology.

Not gettin yer oats then??? LMAO Thats basically what I said - stages are just a way of selling the next mod. If I fit better brakes does my car go a stage higher? Probably :D Get your car rolling road tested - the only real way of knowing... make sure they blow the intercoolers though ;)

 

CheerZ,

 

Andy

Hello Mate,

 

I believe Stillen do a Stage chart, it may be on the Aus site or AndyP's site, can't remember!

Don't shoot the messenger - I pasted them from a post I found searching for "stage" :rolleyes: :D

 

Pete

20 horses for a performance cat back exhaust!!!!!

OOOpppppsss, best tell the insurance compnay next time I speak to them then!!!!:D :D :D

Nick

:cool:

And the original Stillen sheet http://www.netcomuk.co.uk/~webster/gio/graphics/90-95_300zxtwinturbo.pdf

What I wanna know is if stock boost is about 9psi how does it get up to 10.5 with an intake and exhaust if the ecu knows nothing about it and the blow off settings are unchanged?

 

see the Stillen stage charts
