Mark@Abbey m/s

still need to get my JDM car back on the dyno to sort out the speed limiter problem , will endeavour to get it sorted this week Anlid.

Ian, when I am at work tomorrow , I,ll give you the data that we run Mark,s car, i.e start rpm ramp rate and finish rpm ,the we can directly compare the run between the 2 cars. But I do have a ace plan ready for Marks car

I would prefer to just add 35bhp to the hub BHP figure than add a % Mark. But even if we quote it at 305 bhp it is a good gain from a STD car as in the 1st graph ( the GREEN plot is a totally stock motor not even had the Uprev reflash)

Yes it funny Nissan after developing the extra valve control on the Revup motor have actuualy made a engine that has less torque than the early DE motor but they do rev on far better. Such a shame a cam change is such a huge job , would be good to fit some cams in a Revup motor to the same spec as a early DE motor and then play with the cams maps. Lots to still do, had a play with a DE 276bhp car yesterday with a few more mods on the figures where very very good , should be posted up on here very soon.

Same REVUP 06 car fitted with plenum spacer and Popcharger BLUE dyno plot std motor fitted with Nismo exhaust and Y pipe STD air box RED dyno plot std motor fitted with Nismo exhaust and Y pipe plenum spacer popcharger air filter No gains over the car run without the above mods, it is known the 06 STD air filter set up is pretty spot on and it seems the plenum spacer only works if you use a Mrev lower collector. I have a lower collector on order so I should have some more information very soon.

UPREV remap on 296bhp car REVUP spec Motor was rebuilt a few thousand miles ago, car has a Nismo exhaust and Y pipe fitted BLUE dyno plot std motor fitted with Nismo exhaust and Y pipe STD air box GREEN dyno plot std motor fitted with Nismo exhaust and Y pipe STD air box + UPREV remap raised the rev limit by 100 rpm, lifted speed limiter to 180mph. Throttle map set up to allow throtle to be opened 100% in all gears. This car can have multi maps. As per information I have gathered it is apparent that the REVUP motor lacks a little in mid range torque agaisnt other 350Z motors even with a remap we cant regain a lot of torque , as normal we can smooth the torque/bhp outputs , also gain a few LB/FT and BHP. any questions feel free to ask. Cost for reflash is £345-00 inc vat , this includes an hour to tweak the map for your car.

How much do you want for them both? Mark

Is this complete with all electrical parts? maybe you could post a picture up to show me the part? But if it is complete I take it. Mark

It will be cam chain tensioner not tensioning the chain on initail start up ,thicker oil will help thou ,we use a 10W50 oil which does seem tohelp.

Think I never told you lot that we 2 lovely Micra,s as courtesy cars that can be used when your cars are in our hands. just ask Scott when you book your car in, if you require a car.

Well , I gone and brought another one......a Z that is. Yes we have a Import Z as a mule, but I must admit the cars are so nice to drive , I have gone and brought a UK 276bhp Chilli Red car. So now Abbey have 2 to play with as to speak; The JDM car will become a fully blown track car, might even go and play with Steve in the Nippon series next year if all goes well. Lots to do proper cage , lightning work , safety equipment. The UK car will become more a demo car also will be used for some development work , we are trying to get round the problem with the UK ECU not being able to be lived mapped, owning a UK car ourselves will help speed this up. It will be modded ( how can a car not be) got a few idea,s to compliment the awesome Red colour exterior. But engine mods havent decided yet, maybe just a Y pipe and a UpRev reflash for now. But I do have a HKS S/C kit that may find it,s way onto the car. No pictures yet your have to wait and see.

296bhp base car(ish) has been tuned, will get some dyno plots up on here very soon.

Lee, I have a boot mat for the new car........seems me and Jamie are going to come and collect it , maybe a night out on the drink......can you cope with 2 southerners.......

My JDM car fitted with DC headers , Kinetix cats and DC Sports dual system , sounds awesome, not to loud thou , still need time to finally finish the UpRev map thou...

Cheers for that Bennet, been speaking to my friends in the US , and they say the same re Mrev set up and spacer kit can help gain the mid range torque that the 296bhp car lack. Another thing they say is removing the Cats gain a lot of midrange torque , I am worried that the exhaust noise will become obtrusive. But I do have a set of test pipe shere that we will try on a car very soon. Another item they say is that if you remove the Cats the STD exhaust is pretty good re flow and keeping the noise under control. So something to try soon. I have just finished a tune on a 296bhp car , found 10 bhp top end and torque all throught he rev range.Will stick a post on the Abbey Uprev thread very soon with dyno plots. Also have a dyno plot of a 276 v,s 296 v,s a 313 car which is preety good to look at.

okay , better look at a local garage for a cheap deal , best to got to someone that knows the Z thou. Mark

We can do it for 350Z P3 service VQ35DE Service price £297.12 inc vat includes Nissan Consult disgonostic check up and free coffee and we can fit you in tommorow.

Yes I did know about the revisied pistons, but dont know if that is a good thing as the 296bhp cars tend to use more oil than the early 276bhp cars. 296bhp ecu cant cope with 2 AFM,s and 2 x TB,s. Havent looked into if the 313bhp ecu will fit in a 296bhp car thou , to be honest to much hassle , sure we can sort it using the whats the cars has fitted just dot the i abd cross the T,s as to speak. Bottom end of the HR motor is far superior to the early engines thou , takes more rev,s.

I think Nissan may tuned the car to make a lower but wider spread of torque but a bigger push top end, this makes a RWD car easier to drive in my eyes. Torque is what makes a car tail happy.Just like Chris has said above. I will look into cams spec,s later on between the 2 cars , the cylinder head sare the same thou bar the extra cam postion sensor dont know about compression thou , also lower collector is different as most prople already know. We may well come up against a wall with finding torque without major engine work, but I do know the car will make a better smoother spread of torque , better throttle response. The fuelling as a std car needs a lot of work. again thanks for the replies.

thanks for that boys , it answer,s the question I had , the Revup motor although it gives a good blast top end over the 276bhp car the mid range torque is in kind words "pants" against a 276bhp car in std or tuned spec. We have a 296bhp car on the dyno at the moment , mild mods Y pipe and exhaust system ( got 5/16 spacer to fit and a pop charger as well), but the mid range torque is down from even a STD 276bhp car , we can pack it out with some mapping but it wont give the figures like a 276bhp car does. ( I will post some comparision dyno sheets soon thou ) tweaking the inlet cam map doesnt help at all with torque so there must be something else holding the car back which leads me onto; So I have been reading up about the MREV2 so I think I will be trying that sometimes very soon , maybe on MrSteve,s race car as the 1st thing he said to me I want more mid range torque. I have a few idea,s that "may" help mostly in the induction of the 296bhp car. I will be back with some more info after a few hours more on the dyno today. GT4 Zed , where are you based in the UK? thanks again boys

Yes I was speaking to Colin at Brands on Saturday, hopefully he will reply.

Any of the chaps and girls on here had both above cars , can they give me some feedback with regards how the cars drove i.e midrange TORQUE top end BHP,which car was stronger in what area, just trying to work something out.

is the car from the bournemouth area? chap used to have a red 34GTR as well?

sounds likes O2 sensor problem , you need to find out of the correct O2 sensor are fitted to the car. Mark
