  1. Will be coming with my son,weather looks ok for tommoro,no snow being the main thing,see you there. ;) Tony
  2. Nice one Eddie,at what PSI did you make 300bhp at,sure is another 60bhp in there at least if not more,nice amount of torque,better than mine at my first Thor run when i had 300bhp and det. Tony ;)
  3. Well i keep putting meets/shows on my calender and its filling up,now have some weekends with more than one event,so some will have to be ditched,seems this year that there are even more Jap shows etc on,would like to go to Santa Pod when the ZClub drag challenge meets are on but even 3 of the 6 rounds clash with other events etc. As for coming up to the North west meet,was thinking of maybe coming,but its a bit far,not to much of a problem, but its this weather i am not to sure about,might be nice on way up,then change later in day and snows :mad: dont fancy coming back in that,we all know what Zs are like in that shit,would like to pop in and see my nan in Golborne though :) Will check the forcast for tommoro up there,infact this morning we have had a small amount of snow here! Tony
  4. Here's a pic of the location of the FSE. As for the ecu,now that was not touched,i will see if its worth going down this route later,maybe different chip mapped for mine. I get your drift andy about the VTC,will ponder over that. The SAFC sorted it nicely,lovely kit. One thing,the revs come up so bloody fast,so so much improvement with the Z ,still getting used to it :D Tony
  5. The price was £362,after members discount of course :D,i will post pic of the FSE location later today. Tony
  6. Ok the big day finaly arrived,as i pulled into the farm road at 8.30am Petes behind me in his Supra,he commented 5 mins later how impressive Z looks when behind one,off to a great start then :D The fuel regulator was ditch for a FSE Powerboost Valve,after a few headaches as to where to fit the thing were off and running with the Apexi SAFC II,wired up,checked out,now for Pete to sort his magic on Dyno,come 3pm all done,to say i was mentaly knackerd would be an understatement,after a total of around 10 runs or more to tune up who would'nt be!!. Results, At last Dyno 294.9bhp rwhp,detting at 10.46,Torque 272ft/lb. :( Now,360.1 bhp rwhp,Torque 369.9ft/lb :D what you see is a gain overall in torque of 107ft/lb,Pete and his partner were well impressed and excited about this,and when driving home i could see why,bloody brilliant,so much more grunt,pulls like a train,as for the bhp,i decided with Petes advice that 360 was enough,and without Optimax and timing adjustment it was not worth the extra stress,but it should reach 400bhp going down this route. On the graph for PSI you will notice that to maintain 16psi i have to have the controller set for 17.4 which it reaches then tails off slowly to 16 psi,this is down to the EVC5,aparently to cure this the Apexi boost controller is capable of sorting this,but its not realy a big problem.Very impressed with my SAFC II though,very clever kit. Spool up of turbos start at around 2000rpm,reaching 360.1bhp at 4000rpm,like it ;) So i am very happy,The Z flies,its well within its stress points,Pete and his partner did a excellent job,very proffesional,and the price was brilliant,especially with my 10% 300zx.co.uk club members "DISCOUNT"(thought i would throw that in for the non paying members :D )Top Work,Top Recomendation :cool: Tony

  23. I see,sorry to hear you selling,but why no reciepts,your losing money becouse of that :( and as i stated below,it seems strange when reading the add on ebay,bound to put people off,becose end of the day there buying blind on the work done.Worth a lot more IMHO than £6500 :(
  24. Well not sure,but you get that feeling dont ya :( one thing,why does the interior look rough(what bit you can see.)Why no reciepts,who did engine work!if it was mine i sure would have every scrap of paper to show whats been done,like we all would,sod phoning round to speak to god knows who to get the history,PITA,and to be honest if it was in great condition i would ask a lot more,.There again i could be wrong,needs looking at closely!
