Did you check the muffler bearings? Also, last time i was in your car; there was definitely a loose nut behind the steering wheel...

Haven't updated for a while not that I've really done much to it lately but did take it out to SMSP South Circuit again and managed to knock off another second off my lap time with a 1:08.26.

I've got the same one theo but my boost gauge doesnt go up high enough to measure properly.

Def didn't get any big increase in power when I fitted it, which I'd probably expect from an extra 4 psi.

What are you using to measure the boost increase? The BOV should make no difference to the boost, thats the wastegate's job. List your mods again?

i have an Auto meter Sport compact II boost gauge. i was sitting on 16PSI last time i checked now im at 19PSI (its still not mounted on the dash so its hidden under the seat atm LOL)

Power duct with BNC filter.

Scotty's Dump pipe, Full 3" exhaust.

Intake spacer and HDi FMIC.

Do you mean how much boost? He said 16PSI. Not bad.

lol i skimmed that post as usual.

scott, almost makes it not worthwhile turning up the boost as it just throws fuel at it

I'll know as soon as I get my Fcon V Pro tuned. But with everything sitting in front of me I have no reason to doubt it wouldn't be the best solution. It is more expensive than the Emanage though.

iamhe77 is currently selling an Fcon V Pro with software and accessories (which you need) and Jetwreck is currently selling the plug and play NM35 harness (which is discontinued). The plug and play harness is great. Emanage requires you to spider the harness to all the necessary inputs.

Only optional items are additional sensors, which I've picked up. I'm just waiting to install everything I've got sitting here, then buy some injectors, then go and get a tune.

yeah i need an piggyback ECU ............. which one is the go ???

The Fcon V-Pro is the one you want... the only reason I am selling mine is because of a lack of harness for the PNM35 (HKS tell me that the Z33 harness will not be suitable :().

It is a standalone ECU, but in the VQ25det it is in piggyback "format". Basically instead of adding/subtracting x values on top of what the OEM ECU does, it sends it's own values based on your tune... totally ignoring the variations that the OEM ECU sends to the engine.

It, unlike the eManage, removed the speed limiter and can (as I have stated before) change how the throttle reacts.

Only thing it can't do is manipulate the cams, but as Scotty may attest, neither can the eManage/Vmanage combo unfortunately.

      Calling all audiophiles

      I'll snap up some photos when I'm back home, in the office today meeting my "in the office" quota. Have 2x Teams calls scheduled in, office culture they reckon.   I've never owned a proper off the shelf sub, I've always made or modified broken ones with Jaycar plate amps and/or car subwoofer drivers. The current (and broken) subwoofer has a proper home driver in it, Dayton driver, thos one https://www.daytonaudio.com/product/118/rss265hf-4-10-reference-hf-subwoofer-4-ohm FS of 25Hz, which is low but not low enough. Yeah, I think they were brought out to the market to compete with SVS. I would love a SVS PB-3000 but they're not cheap, especially after their price hike. From reviews online, it does look like the Tonewinner D6000 would destroy and with good amount of money saved too.

      yeah, that happens too.  I'm really enjoying 4WDing at the moment, seen a few beautiful spots and want to go explore more of this enormous country.  The 370Z got a clutch LSD in it and a track day, great fun.  Getting the back end sorted out really rejuvenated my enthusiasm for driving it hard, the viscous one is poo especially in such a short and wide chassis.  The VLSD unpredictability was more benign in a long and skinny Skyline.

      With my pre/power I use a remote trigger cable(3.5mm jack each end). I turn tv on, it turns both on via ARC. Or, just the pre with the remote or its streaming software, turns on both. Not that difficult at all. Obviously,  you would also want to actually update/upgrade over other factors in your life(bills, family, other hobbies, etc)

      Yeah, nightfall was very "meh". And I'm crap at pvp, so feels like everyone has cheats(it's just my lack of skill). Final shape has been pretty good. New raid and dungeon are pretty good. If you want to give it a go, probably wait until it's on sale. But, as usual, most of it feels very familiar.

      This morning was Kingswood's Microscopic Wars. It is the album's 10 year anniversary this year and we went to see them play the whole album as a special show a couple of months back. Was pretty spectacular.
