Is it true you need 19 inch rims to clear these? Been looking at these for a while.... very jealous :)

:yes:

:no:

ADM 370zs have 18" wheels over the brakes. So no, you don't have to run 19s.

I do think you'll have to try hard to get a wheel with offset/ spoke clearance to fit them though, and thats when 19's give you that little bit of advantage.

Damm, that could be the deciding factor for me not getting a bigger set. I think the 355mm Akebono BBK is excellent value, but slim chance of those fitting. May have to print the template one day to double check exactly what will fit.

I thought that they had the Akebono 'Sport option" like the 350z did with the Brembo upgrade... with 18's, non Akebono but they get 19's if you select the Akebono option

Hmmm.... would appear that they were standard an all 370z's over here. Oh well, there ya go. Get a set of 370z rims Leon... have seen them advertised under $1k on other forums

Yes they are a great value BBK. Just be aware that the stock rotors are bloody heavy. I dunno if PMu stuff is lighter but you would have to sell your kidney to obtain PMu rotors I'm guessing ($$$) . I think there has been some 2 piece rotors brought to market by someone to try to lighten the kit up a bit- but the source evades me ATM.

I think the sizes are teh ghey. Their staggered for a start, and I think the fronts run a really high offset? like +47 or something?

Nice placement Leon, that's where I was hoping to fit the wideband. Have you got some better close up pics?

Ask & you shall receive. PM sent.

Thanks mate, much appreciated.

I think DBA do a 5000 series T3 multi piece rotor for 370Zs - worth looking into.

nah caltex eflex. when ramped up it did crack 300 but it averaged it to 297-298 cant remember scott will be getting the graphs, just hypergear turbo full exhaust n dump and intake (made by scott) and 1000cc injectors n emanage ultimate, we drove it up there untuned on scotts old map and it drove it a standard car, still does very nice to drive

fitted a new cooling pro return flow cooler nd jjr front and dump pipe to my car last week. not exactly direct fit for the Auto's, but managed to get it squeezed in without cutting front reo bar (twisted lower part slightly) nd front and dump pipe slightly short so from cat back all had to be moved forward nd trans bracket removed.

got car booked in for shift kit on tuesday. nd then got it going on for a dyno run at the SAU dyno day then get it tuned after that some time as i need to start saving money for trip

Nice work - good numbers! But how the hell did you get Hypergear to do your turbo so quickly? Mine took nearly a month to get back to me & I know when Scotty dropped yours off..... Must be who you know I suppose :)

Did you get the engine cover on and hide the Emanage away yet? It should look as stock as it came in. :)

I guess it helps that I dropped it off and had him under the pump to pick it up. The Easter holidays wouldn't have helped either. I'm fairly sure he outsources his machining work so time can blow out as you know. Is it on yet? What wheels did you end up with?

scotty engine cover is back on ur intake pipes r black so is the drivers side cooler pipe, emanage is hidden and painted the cooler black today nice and stealth :P been driving it alot today the mrs drove it she loves it, i launched it today hard..... well yeh u can guess how that went hahaha

Brief run down of the mods that obtained the above?

Auto Box messed with?

Shift kit

Full 3 inch exhaust with custom dump/front pipe

Hypergear highflow

HDI cooler

3 inch intake

Xspurt Bosch 1000cc injectors with plug in adapter

Emanage ultimate

300lph Deatschworks fuel pump @ 14v

Looks completely stock and legal with the engine cover back on.

So the speed limiter isn't defeated? And what's with the boost control, Thought it'd be flatter than that?

I have given Marko my SLD, as long as the Fcon gets rid of speed cut...

Boost curve isn't too bad, I like the power curve, its like a V8. (Stao didn't open up the wastegate so it spikes to around 21psi or so.) We could have bumped up the midrange a little to flatten it off but it drives great either way.

    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.      
    • Onto the android unit. You need to remove the top screen because there is a daughterboard to put inside the case. Each side vent pops out from clips; start at the bottom and carefully remove upwards (use a trim remover tool to avoid breaking anything). Then the lower screen and controls come out, 4 screws, a couple of clips (including 3 flimsy ones at the top) and 3 plugs on the rear. Then the upper screen, 4 screws and a bunch of plugs and she is out. From there, remove the mounting brackets (2 screws each), 4 screws on the rear, 2 screws top and bottom and 3 screws holding in the small plates on each side. When you remove the back cover (tight fit), watch out for the power cable for the fan, I removed it so I could put the back aside. The mainboard is held in by 1 screw in the middle, 1 aerial at the top and 3 ribbon cables. If you've ever done any laptop stuff the ribbon cables are OK to work with, just pop up the retainer and they slide out. If you are not familiar just grab a 12 year old from an iphone factory, they will know how it works The case should now look like this:
    • Switching the console was tricky. First there were 6 screws to remove, and also the little adapter loom and its screws had to come out. Also don't forget to remove the 2 screws holding the central locking receiver. Then there are 4 clips on either side....these were very tight in this case and needed careful persuading with a long flat screw driver....some force required but not enough to break them...this was probably the fiddliest part of the whole job. In my case I needed both the wiring loom and the central locking receiver module to swap across to the new one. That was it for the console, so "assembly is the reverse of disassembly"
