  1. Car sold months back. Can somone please remove my contact details from the original post as ppl are still calling up about this.
  2. The kit used to be distributed soley through APS authorised retailers (3 places australia wide) for a set price which included the exhaust and installation (to make it fully adr complient) for $15k. APS no longer produce 350z kits (although they do fully support them) so if you would like to turbo your 350 these days, you must import a kit from the US. Installation of any kit will generally require the engine to be dropped. Im usually a DIY'r, but i was not prepared to wrench this kit. You can do it in the bay, but u end up needing all these custom tools and spend so much time that its easier to drop the engine anyway. So basically if you are interested in a turbo 350, you will save yourself a whole lotta cash and wrenching time pick up this car - which i personally beleive is a bargin. Ive been in some 300kw GTRs, 200sx's, and civics, and would you beleive that the 3.5 V6 (with the lightened flywheel) is a whole lot more responsive and IMO, faster then all. This car makes boost from 1000RPM but will go sideways at 100KM. My background is in turbo Hondas which are laggy, but rev like lawmowers. Im not saying this car is the fastest thing on the roads, my old honda used to have more topend on the hiway. But as far as daily driving goes, i have not been beaten in the 50k ive put on this kit. Simply put, its the most usable 300kw ive ever experienced aside from force fed 8's. Oh and overall my fuel economy improved with the kits installation, go figure. Thanks for the bump. Im a car enthusiest and this conversion was a dream of mine. I purhcased the 350z specifically to install this kit on. When you drive around in a convertible, people automatically think you are a tool who in it for the 'status' and has no clue about cars. Drivers still look at me funny cause this car is so stealth, but a quick flash to 4grand and their smurk turns to curisity and bewilderment. Groups of laughing kids in there show pony rex's shut there mouths when we pull up to the next set of lights after i flutter past there windows. My reasoning for the convertible was that i dont listen to the radio, so i might as well have the best way possible of listening to the engine... If anyone has more questions, im happy to answer. I am not someone with a chequebook who doesnt understand whats going on.
  3. ATM i am waiting for cash as i am going oversea's. But if you do have luck with the sale, let me know.
  4. Ahhh i meant 1% commission. Cant find the edit button. grrr
  5. Hello, This car is now up sale to fund an overseas trip. Its an APS TT kit done by Auto-tech Engineering who are the only authorised people to install this by APS in NSW. The kit has not been modified in any way since that day, and the car is generally stock apart from the tanabe protec-5's which give you the option of stock softness or track stiffness, at the push of a button. This has no special requirements other then running on 98 octane. People in the US run these engines upto 10psi on stock internals. I think the best thing about this car is it gets zero attention fron the cops. ive had rbt's, speeding fines (be warned) and never had even one check my tyres. Ive just given her a very special detail, 100k service (replacing all the fluids) and its sitting in the garage waiting for a new owner (have another daily driver). its got just over 100k on the clock with most of the K's being hiway between Sydney, Canberra and Newcastle. The car is currently located in Canberra, but is registered in NSW and i can organise viewings in either state. No tyre kickers please! Outline of modifications: - APS Twin Turbo kit - APS 2.5" dual exhaust - JWT Lightened Flywheel - JWT Stage 1 Clutch - Tanabe Pro-Five Coilover - Height and dampener adjustable coilovers - TEAS Incar Control - speed sensing dampener controller, automaticlly adjust stiffness depending on road speed - Adjustable control arms + chasis mods (full adjustable camber, toe, can lower it till it scrapes on the guards without tyre wear) - Slotted and drilled DBA rotors Other: - Serviced with Motul 8100 or Chrono 300V, and Redline in the gearbox and diff. Asking $37000. Contact Jonathan on 0413 27 57 97 or weq( at )mooh.org All offers welcome. As an added incentive, Im also offering a 10% commision on the final sale price for anyone who introduces me to the buyer.
  6. Sounds like some payback. Sounds like someones point has been made... Had any _particularily_ pissed off customers lately?
  7. Thank you for trying to trash my sale. Now let me rebut by listing some facts. The RRP of this product is $350USD This sensor is used in OEM applications from manufacturers such as Porche, Audi, Nissan (350z runs two of these) VW, Subaru, and Volvo. As such, these sensors are proven to be reliable at turbo AFR's for over a 100,000kms. If u plan on running below 10AFR, u will foul and destroy any o2 sensor you purchase. Now, final price for this is $380. Will be at your door the day after the money clears.
  8. No onboard datalogger sorry. Although it has 1 narrowband, and 2 wideband outputs. This can replace your stuffed stock sensor, or u can just sell ur stock one and make some money back.
  9. U dont see many of these for sale.. and its for a reason
  10. This has been used for 1500KM's. Its mint condition, not a scratch. Comes with display and sensor! $400 $10 postage Australia wide, pickup from ACT.
  11. get it balanced. there have been no good storys about xs power, period. dont cut corners. shouldnt cost more then 400
  12. Manifold design is a big debate in many car scene's.People have done back to back tests before, ON dyno's. Some with video proof: http://www.honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=925312 otherwise without: http://www.honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=1056249 - sr20det gained 68whp with a equal length manifold. As for stainless steel tubular manifolds being a poor choice between a cast manifold, i think you leave alot to be desired. You must either have a really BAD sample manifold, or are overly exaggerating. http://members.optusnet.com.au/loxy/car/tu...up/manifold.jpg http://members.optusnet.com.au/loxy/car/tu...setup/welds.jpg http://members.optusnet.com.au/loxy/car/tu...p/collector.jpg Thats 304g stainless steel. Its run for 6 months and just had a bead blast. SHow me the cracks. show me how bad the equal length runners will flow.. the main advanatge of these manifolds is the marge collector and smooth flow it promotes. I can drop this off if u wish to test flow it, but i dont have anything to compare it with.. lol..
  13. ive had an offer and it will be going tuesday if no one can beat it. $350 takes it.
  14. in the title dude Harness is complete and in great condition. never hacked up.
  15. Hey guys, i am just pulling this off my car. Ive been using it for maybe 6 months now since i bought it off a guy on here who had it in his GTR. It holds rock solid and comes with everything accept vac hoses. Its a great controller, nothing is easier to setup and holds boost on single and twins like a mofo. Its a Spec 1, exactly the same as the new Profec Type-S, at a fraction of the cost! $350. PM me here or [email protected]. i can deliver to sydney or canberra metro for free on a weekend. http://members.optusnet.com.au/loxy/car/tu...urbo/profec.jpg
