Interesting read this. @PlanGT

When the synchro presses against the gear it needs friction to speed it up or slow it down to match the speed of the gear. The sleeve and teeth can't lock if the speed isn't close enough. Personally I only ever put in OE / OE spec oil into a gearbox, but I've heard of people using 10W-40 engine oil on old gearboxes.

Appreciate that! Nice one it was defo the way I was leaning towards ordering for the gear box and lsd oils. Can't wait to get driving her again.

Had my first race event last weekend, around 200 road miles plus track time and no issue. If your not sure what to use, I would recommend this over anything else I have used.

Such an easy mod for such a clean result!

How did you get on with this oil any chance of more usage yet? Due a full service on mine and change all fluids.

Hi Andy, yeah i was thinking this, im 8 years late to the party. Just as much as i love the intake sound of the jwt popcharger, i would like to go back to the standard set up with the velocity stack

Hi Darryl, You might be best asking a breaker if they have a Rev-up air box really. I am sure someone will have 1. As you say it might be a long shot to get 1 of these velocity stack devices.

Hello all, Its a bit of a long shot. But any chance these are still available or even if somewhere sells them? Thanks.

Hello all, Bit of a long shot here, but does anyone know if you can still get the 'flyboy' velocity stack kit? Or if you can buy one online anywhere? Thank you.

I think that I have them, let me have a look for you.

Does anyone have a copy of these files?

Bit of a car update on the build thread. I got accepted to display the car at the outdoor section of Dubshed in April in Northern Ireland. So figured it was time to give the car some love. Wiper Delete mod. Really simple and cheap mod. It's not one I'd considered untill recently. But the more I looked the more I grew to dislike the rear wiper. Just upsets the lines on the car. So off she came. (Its easily restored if I dont like it long term)

Display booked, thinking about track session...

Good effort Glen. Looking forward to following your progress this season mate.

2026 Season has started. Cadwell Park was first up yesterday. New Suspension = Better

+1 for adding Kemble as an option; great food, lots of parking, good roads around it, and quite a unique setting being an active airfield still.

Cheers bud, will definitely have a good look at both.

I use a CTEK battery conditioner when the car's parked in the garage. Optima red top AGM battery, been fine so far.

370z is an evolution of the 350z rather than a different car. JMHO 350z is old school, mechanical, raw,...370z is a bit more refined, bit more power, track little wider wheelbase little shorter, so probably a bit sharper, although 99% of road driving you'd struggle to tell a difference. I've seen some stunning builds of both. I'd be happy with either. I'd say focus on a solid, well maintained, rust free, well loved example. I buy a lot from Torqen never had any problems, decent guys; Tarmac Sportz also has a good reputation. I also buy parts online from the US, Japan etc. There is a huge zed sceen in the US. I run an Infinity exhaust, fits well, great tone, not obnoxious.

I have one in stock. Just drop me a PM if you still require one.. Alex

Just use a regular lead acid battery designed for our 350z

Ok good to know, thanks for that! Would there be any reason to go 350z over a 370z, or are they basically the same car? I've found a decent amount on AutoTrader so far of both. Also found the torqen website as well, this a good one that you know of? Probs just buy most of my mods from there, starting with the infinity exhaust. Very new to this so if you have any advice would be greatly appreciated!

That budget gets you either. They are fun, raw, low tech, decent power (can make big power) Totally opposite to your EV. Easy to work on, reliable, parts readily available. Make great project cars. I've noticed the price of decent 350z is slowly starting to rise now. Most comparable probably a Toyota GR86 / Subaru BRZ with a hint of Ford Mustang.

Shocking that was regarding the main dealer service, I much prefer to do what I can on my own car.
