Ok ive been having a think about the air filter set-up and was wondering if anyone has done this or could find any problems with this idea. I was thinking of cutting down the pipework of the air filter system by just connecting silicon hose straight from the turbos to behind my bumper. I would then make air ducts direct to the cone filters for direct air feed. This would be alot better for air flow being practicly direct and alot less heat soak from the mile long standard pipework. Can anyone see any problems with this or should i just stick with the Doolz? Cheers Dan

The ones ive used fit fine

I always forget and im only down the road ill pop down too. No zed tho :(

Erm.... thats a tuff one because ive got a tub full of nuts and bolts that ive gained from two engines. I could try and measure the thread for you if you like? Im hoping they will handle the heat of the down pipe! As for the ceramic coating and heat wrap ive covered most things that are prone to get very hot including oil lines exhaust and down pipes aswell as the manifolds and turbos. The less heat transfer the better :tongue_smilie:

Result thankyou :rockon:

Yea it turned off at Rainham! I havent seen it since :(

Great :) Thanks for your reply ill get on to it straight away! The last thing i want is for the engine to be no good after all this time and money

Thats shocking!

Thanks for the info! Im really worried now i hope its not to late. My engine is stored at my lock up which used to be a refridgerated unit for mushrooms im hopeing its insulated enough...But it has been cold lately :(

He sure is hope he replys to my PM :drool:

Hi, Ive had my engine rebuilt about a year ago now its just sitting on an engine stand. I just havent got round to fitting the turbos etc. Ive been turning the engine over now and again at the crank, I know when it was built it was well creased etc! But do you think i should fill the engine with engine oil to prevent any damage? Thanks Dan

So confused about this system its not as straight forward as i thought it would be

Thats the one :)

Great cheers for your reply

From what i understand as i have the same to fit when im finished. The MAP sensor has to be fitted as close as possible to the throttle body either end. No MAP sensor as standard. AEM temp sensor either fitted just after the air filter or throttle body. My AEM just plugs into the original loom socket?

Hi all im after abit of info if poss, I know the N/A gear ratio allows the TT to excellerate quicker at a loss of top end. But is the mid range better or worse? Also how much is lost at the top end Cheers Dan

Red uk spec zed with what looked like a high level Bomex spoiler with twin single exit exhausts on the A13 today coming out of London. Anyone?

Ive got a great wet nos setup for sale with controller if interested?

Hi, Has anyone got or using the UEGO guage of any type? Im hoping somebody can help me as one of my gauges hasnt came with a spare silver bezzel. Has anyone got 1 spare they can sell me or know where i can get one fromotherwise my new dash is going to look abit odd:taz: Thanks Dan

I've got a snap off on my zed had it for years with no problems

The turbo is to close to part of the block at the rear of the tub. If i remember right i think the gearbox bolts to the part that sticks out. Im thinking of shaving abit more off the block hopefully not enough to weaken the block

Hi Jimmy my turbos are ceramic coated all ready plus putting jackets on i would need to gring more off the block to fit them

Hi all, Does anyone know if or how much approx the rear of the the turbo expands by when hits hot? Not sure how true this is but after thinking about it as well most things expand when they are hot.....so it got me thinking because the right hand side turbo sits about 1 to 1.5mm away from the block in one area. Do i have anything to worry about? My turbos are ceramic coated if that helps in anyway! Cheers Dan

Im not a fan of the 370z it may grow on me.

Ive got a set of standard ones in good condition
