And don't forget guys, this car does a 10.04 sec 1/4 mile according to the owner. It was published in this month's Autosalon magazine, full write up on the car....

Was at Dutton Rally at Sandown and overheard the owner claiming it had done a 10.04 sec 1/4 mile in Japan.... :D

Is it just me or does anybody else find that hard to believe???

500ps + 1500kg = 10.04??? :D

Oh, and why didn't they say what mph it reached??

Still, I'd buy one..... :laugh:

Everyone talks it up... just some go further than others...

It has a lot more than 500ps :/

Really?? Has it been modified beyond Nismo Z-Tune specs?? Or is Nismo underrating the power??

Here's the specs according to Nismo: http://www.nismo.co.jp/Z-tune/data_e/6.html

They also claim it weighs 1600kg, I thought it would have been 1500kg with all the carbon fibre.

Then again all the diff/trans coolers would add weight...

So blacksx, how much power has it got?? I'm curious... :)

I don't find it hard to believe, the data was recorded on Nissan's own test course so I'd be happy to believe it were true.

If it came 4th, who came 3rd, 2nd, and 1st?

P.S. dream car there...

Team Outright

1. Mitsubishi Lancer EVO VI

2. Whiteline EVO VIII

3. Mitsubishi EVO 3

The Z Tune actually scored enough points to place 2nd outright however it was docked points by the officials for some "circular antics" in the pits/carpark

The proto version would run 10,s but the one;s they sold would no way go 10.02.

In plenty of best motoring vids the Proto version is way faster/quicker and looks like a 10 sec car but in videos with the street version the car no where near moves, revs or sounds quick enough for a 10, It was struggling to catch a new corvette down tsukuba and didnt catch it not to metion the S205 Sti that was in front of them both.

See for yourselfs.

There is another video of the Proto at Nismo festival Fisco and it came 3rd the vid isnt on Youtube anymore.

1st was ATTKD BNR34 GAIAX

2nd Mines BNR34

3rd Z-tune Proto

4th MCR BCNR33

The proto had closer to 800ps no cat converter and more agressive tune that would go 10.02, the production one would of never kept up with the mines GTR

Thought so, the specs just don't add up...

The proto sounds like it had no restrictions like the production model has...

Thanks for the info!!!!

I can't say for sure if this Z-Tune could run a flat 10 or not.

However what I can say is that in the Dutton Rally Vic this year the Z-Tune on the Airport run ran a best time of 15.46s.

It should be noted that Mark Berry's best time for that event is 15.76s and Mark has run a 10.4s 1/4 mile. So the Z Tunes drag time was under Marks time and Marks 10.4s was done on R Comps.

Having competed against the car there is no question it's a decent bit of kit.

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
