  1. Good luck, swb tt's are rare, find one thats 450bhp+ is going to really narrow you down. Most zeds are typically either stock or running around 350-370 fwhp which consists of running a chip and around 14-16psi, this should be fairly cheap. Going to the next stage is where it starts hurting your wallet. Although its not essential to rebuild the bottom end to start heading north of this (the bottom end is apparently good for 500 bhp, with correct fueling and supporting mods) your going to be pulling the block to fit larger turbos, engine out job im afraid, and fitting larger injectors, obviously it would be wise to get things like the cambelt etc sorted before this, where do you draw the line? there is little point is bolting on the supporting equipment to run 500 ponies only to pull it out in six months to have to rebuild it due to a fecked bottom end because a bearing etc was duff. In all honesty there are other cars that are cheaper and easier to pull big number out of, but the z32 makes a true monster when built properly. welcome to the club and I suggest to spend some time floating around reading and learning.
  2. Checked your tps? And all connections?
  3. I agree with mark sounds like youve got a nice boost/vaccum leak.
  4. on reading further its around 112 mph roughly 180 odd kph.
  5. Some jdms had 180kph clocks as they were restricted electronically to a lower speed.
  6. Supposed to but if your spinning or sliding, welll we know how it goes, best brakes in the world wont every crash. - - - Updated - - - Wont stop you I mean
  7. what makes you think your in safety mode?
  8. I think and gaz might be able to say that weve done that, it was set few weeks back.
  9. lol get a 1000 mile son it and I can finally boost it up, ohhh that's gonna be so much fun! still undecided how much boost to run and how to do it :devil2: 19psi outta do it hahaha!
  10. fired her up tonight, had a little check over the bay before I began you know usual checked the oil and coolant levels, let it idle for a minute and popped each coilpack connector just to double check it was firing on all cylinders(yes I'm a paranoid fella) anyways all good, so I progressed over the other usual suspects... temp sensors etc, and hello whats this my cas connection is half hanging off! that may have something to do with it. Anyways im happy to report my car now pulls right through the rev range to redline with just a note of wheel hop at the top of second, it is only 5 degrees c outside today, so cold roads and tyres. Didn't get a go at a 3rd gear pull through the higher revs as it was nearing rush hour and the road was never er... suitable for it lol that's the way im going to choose to put it. Anyho, looks like its done it, and its corrected the low speed juttering on pull away and its less poppy on overrun. overall it seems to have made a bit of a difference.
  11. Yeah thats right smithy plain 11s na plugs, I assume they were fitted asthere half the price.
  12. doesn't matter how big your brakes are if you've already lost traction.
  13. irrc it bolts to the trannie the shell and the block.
  14. After seeing some smashed up zeds, that one must of got it wrong, wrong, wrong, to get itself in that bad of a state. Big crash to do that I recon.
  15. Right well im hoping that these 11c plug will help as the previous were simply 11's do you see thatvas a likely cause orginally?
  16. Cheers jeff. Noz yes stock 9psi I want to get a few 1000 miles on the stock setup to bed in the tubs and throughly test its correct before stressing it. I havent had chance to test drive since sat with all the wet weather :( Is it correct that too smaller gap can create dett? Or have I misread that? Cheers guys.
  17. Id like a proper definative answer to this as theres so much confusion over it. Im running stock boost and syock ecu but full freefliw intake and exhaust, ive had an issue with the plugs beening blown out on wot in 2nd gear runs. Turns out I had na plugs gapped to 1.1mm ive fitted the right plugs now gapped at 0.8m which is a smaller gap than stock, is this right? Could it cause problems?
  18. oh does it I thought that was just the current bid didn't read that bit, dang.
  19. dunno the egr hole is mahosive 23mm or something I think.
  20. long way to go yet mate..... and as we learnt with martins car, there a definite ceiling to the z32 at present.
  21. crazy huh that cars like that fly under the club radar
  22. I did spot that actually obviously youd have to drill and weld the boss into the exhaust preferably in a location where the gases have mixed from both sides. how would it be wired in other than that? its just an idea atm.
  23. sorry to dig up a dinosaur, but is that first link a wideband? and how accurate is it in terms of detecting improper combustion etc, ie dett or lean running.
