  1. I am waitting to see your dyno results and if its low then you should come to Cyprus.
  2. Nothing helps. Trust me. Auto transmission sucks. Even if is in good condition, after few high boost runs wont change gears. Find a manual transmission and do a swap. That what i did long time back and was the best mod i did on my car.
  3. I got them from USA from a reputable tt.net sponsor. And not only that, one of the turbos is stack. Its unbelievable. One of the turbos is definetely going back and I want a full refund or a Greddy TD-05H 18G 10cm (external wastegates). I am still looking for the part number and couldnt find it anywhere. Trust web site and Greddy people are completely misleading because they are the ones who indicated me the part number which obvisouly was the wrong one because i got the wrong turbos.
  4. I dont know what the hell happened but i ordered two TD-05H 18G 10cm Part number 11500106 and they send me this. This one is using internal wastegate and is not the one i wanted. I so ****ing pissed. Anyone knows what is the correct part number for the true TD-05 18G that everyone is using?
  5. Thanks guys. One more year heavier. :)
  6. Just opened them and paint them with chrome paint.
  7. I can tell you a bit about SMIC vs FMIC FIRST: I have the 3-row Greddy FMIC installed on my car. I remember when i first put it on my car and i took it for a spin i was like what the hell.... Turbo spool up was bad. I was feeling turbo lag more than ever before. However i eliminate this problem and now my turbo spool up is nearly back to stock by adjusting the Gain settings on my Blitz Boost Controller SECOND: I have an Electronic Water Temp Gauge and there is a raise in temp after the installation. Especially when i am driving at a hot day in the city. But the car never overheats. The solution to this problem is to have a Vented hood and a Vented Center Panel then you will have a drop in temp. This is not an issue for me because there must be a really serious reason to drive the car in the summer middle day. THIRD: Installation of the FMIC it wasnt that hard to do. Just need some fabrication and it fits right. At least with the Greddy one. FOURTH: I can definetely say that my car makes more power. At least it feels more powerfull. Always spins tyres when hit the gas, 2nd gear no matter if the car is hot or not no matter what RPM. Before it didnt. I can say that i really love it. It looks cool and some cons i mentioned above are not that serious to make me regret it. I am upgrading my Turbos soon and turbos spool up is something i will have to experience with or without the FMIC. Also cooling issues is something i will take care with larger radiator and oil cooler.
  8. Its an automatic. Running twin JWT Sports 700. A very well build 300zx for the track.
  9. Well worth the waitting man. Very nice work. Congratulations on your ride. Would you ever spend so much money, ever, for your girl? Its amazing how easily we spend money on our cars. With such an easy. :)
  10. Remove them. I did remove mine. The benefit from it is that when you cruise around with T-tops off you dont hear the wind blowing over your head. With those craps on you hear it.
  11. Get your self some slicks and take off at 6500RPMS and you will definetely run high 10's low 11's. 60 foot and quick shifting is everything. Question: Is that the Greddy type S wastegates you've got? What kind of springs are you using on those wastegates? You mention running 30PSI!!!
  12. Thanks. I will place an order with them today then.
  13. Are they reliable? Planning ordering something from them and i would like to know if anyone knows anything about them. Good/Bad?? Thanks
  14. May i ask how you did the compression test? Reason i am asking is because most of the people do it in the wrong way and they get incorrect readings. Just for the record the procedure you have to follow is to remove ALL the coils and ALL the spark plugs before checking each cylinder. Then release the pressure from the fuel lines by removing the Fuel fuse that is inside the black box (look at the engine from the front and is at the left corner inside the engine bay). However, if you check the compression of your engine by removing one coil and one spark plug at a time and then put back when finish you will get much lower incorrect indications. I took my car for a compression test few years back and the mechanic did the compression test incorrectly and the readings were way off. Thats why i never go to mechanics. My suggestion is that if you are engine is going then get another one and leave this one for a rebuild when you have the time and money.
  15. Can you also imagine turkey entering the EU. 70million!!!! Have you though about that?
  16. Check the fuse box and you will find the problem. You are touching it with your right leg while driving.

    Around 2900 UK pounds (HKS 2530 kit) without fitment. JWT BB530 Around 2350 UK pounds. Same power levels and cheaper.
  18. Also dont make any boost because you will run the car lean. Just take it easy
  19. It should be fine. The only think is that it will take a lot more fuel.
  20. I dont think that TPS has anything to do with gear change. One way to change the gear of the AUTO is to depress the pedal a little and then step on the gas again. You have to practice to learn this technique :) But when you are at WOT the ECU will change the gear depending on the RPM. If for some reason yours doesnt change quickly enough and hits the REV limiter then there must be something wrong with your gearbox. But like i said before if you want to change the gear earlier depress and then press the gas pedal again and it will change gear when you want to.
  21. To check if its turbos: Remove the rubber hoses/pipes before the throttle bodies. If they are oily then is most likely that your turbos are going bad. Block PCV valves can cause white smoke as well as bad oil seals. PCV valves is quite easy to change but oil seals needs $$$ and time.
  22. http://www.stillen.com Choose the 300ZX, then interior and you will find the one you want.
  23. I am pretty sure that you are on a count down mode. :) Post some pics when you get her.
  24. Did you up the boost yet for your car? Are you using external wastegate? We had the same problem at the beginning. Car didnt make any boost and it was the external wastegate fault. Maybe you can give it a look if you havent already
  25. Low milage and previous owner was a woman.
