For the Nismo awesome club- Not really an ideal fitment, but better than stock. good if your std height. Cheap too!

mmm.. they are nice and good value.. :)

they are big enough for me

next time it will be larger rolling diameter tyres

Never met a bloke who'd say no to an extra inch...:ph34r:

nah i wont make it there, but i know one of the guys filming it!

tonight, gave jetwreck a hand doing a shift kit to a 350z. fck me did it shift fast!!! and every push of the + and - performed a gear change.

anyway, the owner was VERY happy with the outcome. as you would be.

removed my front prop shaft, car feels better in corners i rekon!

yeh the series 2 valve bodies are already upgraded.

the gear box also rev matches and does all this extra funky shit.

My sisters one is auto and actually chirps second on change, and its amazing and holding revs going down gears.

So, we have a separate gearbox computer right?

Is there any way it would work to swap with the 350z one despite the 2wd/4wd difference?

I would love it if mine changed exactly when I wanted not when it decided it felt like doing it.....

the Trans ecu's in the two cars talk to the Cars main ecu. so i dont think going from auto 4wd to auto 2wd would work.

going to Manual 2wd on the other hand, should be no problem. as long as the car can be tuned(emanage f-con etc) you should be fine!

but you also have to keep in mind that the 350z is a lighter car, so some of the feel maybe in that.

its funny you mentioned that, i already thought of obtaining a V35 or Z33 TCU and seeing what would happen. Id say a V35 one would be more compatible (within the same years) and may have different programming.

i know the two TCUs i have are slightly different. i might put back my other one

it lightens the drivetrain taking out the front drive shaft. gear changes ARE snappier on mine now

    • I think you're really missing the point. The spec is just the minimum spec that the fuel has to meet. The additive packages can, and do, go above that minimum if the fuel brand feels they need/want to. And so you get BP Ultimate or Shell Ultra (or whatever they call it) making promises to clean your engine better than the standard stuff....simply because they do actually put better additive packages in there. They do not waste special sauce on the plebian fuel if they can avoid it. I didn't say "energy density". I just said "density". That's right, the specific gravity (if you want to use a really shit old imperial description for mass per unit volume). The density being higher indicates a number of things, from reduces oxygen content, to increased numbers of double bonds or cyclic components. That then just happens to flow on to the calorific value on a volume basis being correspondingly higher. The calorific value on a mass basis barely changes, because almost all hydrocarbon materials have a very similar CV per kg. But whatever - the end result is that you do get a bit more energy per litre, which helps to offset some of the sting of the massive price bump over 91. I can go you one better than "I used to work at a fuel station". I had uni lecturers who worked at the Pt Stanvac refinery (at the time they were lecturing, as industry specialist lecturers) who were quite candid about the business. And granted, that was 30+ years ago, and you might note that I have stated above that I think the industry has since collected together near the bottom (quite like ISPs, when you think about it). Oh, did I mention that I am quite literally a combustion engineer? I'm designing (well, actually, trying to avoid designing and trying to make the junior engineer do it) a heavy fuel oil firing system for a cement plant in fricking Iraq, this week. Last week it was natural gas fired this-that. The week before it was LPG fired anode furnaces for a copper smelter (well, the burners for them, not the actual furnaces, which are just big dumb steel). I'm kinda all over fuels.
    • Well my freshly rebuilt RB25DET Neo went bang 1000kms in, completely fried big end bearing in cylinder 1 so bad my engine seized. No knocking or oil pressure issue prior to this happening, all happened within less than a second. Had Nitto oil pump, 8L baffled sump, head drain, oil restrictors, the lot put in to prevent me spinning a bearing like i did to need the rebuild. Mechanic that looked after the works has no idea what caused it. Reckoned it may have been bearing clearance wrong in cylinder 1 we have no idea. Machinist who did the work reckoned it was something on the mechanic. Anyway thats between them, i had no part in it, just paid the money Curiosity question, does the oil system on RB’s go sump > oil pump > filter > around engine? If so, if you had a leak on an oil filter relocation plate, say sump > oil pump > filter > LEAK > around engine would this cause a low oil pressure reading if the sensors was before the filter?   TIA
    • But I think you missed mine.. there is also nothing about the 98 spec that supports your claim..  according to the fuel standards, it can be identical to 95, just very slightly higher octane number. But the ulp vs pulp fuel regulations go show 95 (or 98), is not just 91 with some additives. any claim of ‘refined by the better refineries’ or ‘higher quality fuel’ is just hearsay.  I have never seen anything to back up such claims other than ‘my mate used to work for a fuel station’, or ‘drove a fuel delivery truck’, or ‘my mechanic says’.. the actual energy densities do slightly vary between the 3 grades of fuel, but the difference is very minor. That said, I am very happy to be proven wrong if anyone has some hard evidence..
    • Hey guys I’m chasing a Rb20det complete or bare block need a good running engine as mine has low comp 
    • You're making my point for me. 95 is not "premium". It is a "slightly higher octane" version of the basic 91 product. The premium product that they want people to buy (for all the venal corporate reasons of making more profit, and all the possibly specious reasons of it being a "better" fuel with nicer additive packages) is the 98 octane stuff. 95 is the classic middle child. No-one wants it. No-one cares about it. It is just there, occupying a space in the product hierarchy.
