some more info on the UTEC TurboXS UTEC This is going to be the engine managemen to turn Z tuning around forever! Plug and play engine management that retains the factory ecu for things like cold start, idle up with air conditioning, cruise control, VDC, and traction control. However, this unit will allow full user control over the fuel and timing curves. In basic form it allows control over Fuel and Ignition Timing. Each control gives you 250 rpm resolution from 500 rpm to revlimit with over 10 different load sitesPlus, it is fully compliant with the OBD2 diagnostic software, so inspections are no problem. Ignition Timing Control The 350Z UTEC has its own injector and coil drivers. Unlike a pure piggyback, the 350Z UTEC actually drives the car. When you decide that you want to run 10 degrees of timing advance at 4000rpm, the UTEC fires the coils at 10 degrees BTDC. This level of timing control is impossible with a pure piggyback. Most piggybacks "control" ignition timing by modifying the crankshaft and camshaft position sensor signals before they enter the ECU. You don't actually program a timing value but a timing offset value (positive or negative) that is than applied to the timing that the ECU wants to run. That works fine in a car with a static, unchanging timing map. Unfortunately, today's cars have highly variable ignition timing maps. So you are applying a static offset value to a changing timing map. The result is, you never actually know what timing you will run. The UTEC eliminates the guess work and gives you the control you need without making you jump though hoops. Convenience The UTEC has the ability to hold 5 different user definable map groups. Each map group can contain a different fuel, ignition timing, and boost map. All of these selections are available at the flick of a switch. One of the key benefits to this system is the ability to run different mapping strategies for different gas conditions. Typically, you'll setup your primary "daily driving" map in position 1. You can then use maps 2-5 for various levels of boost or for optimizing the motor to run on race fuel. The UTEC allows you the flexibility to take advantage of every situation. Usability The UTEC software is incredibly easy to use. It is engineered for compatibility with almost every laptop or PDA you can find. All you need is a spare communications port and windows 3.1 or higher. Once connected to the UTEC, the text menus are simple to understand and easy to navigate. All key strokes and their features are clearly explained on every UTEC screen. Editing the maps on the UTEC is as simple a reading the directions at the bottom of your screen. This ECU will not take you months of study just to learn to move around in the software. It lets you get down to the business of tuning your car quickly and efficiently. In fact, after a just a few uses making changes will becomes second nature. Datalogging Modifying your engine's performance requires the proper information. The UTEC provides that information in spades. You don't need a second laptop or an OBD2 logger system to know what's going on with your motor. The UTEC provides all the key parameters in its own simple to use logging interface With the addition of our TXS Tuner, the UTEC will even give you your air fuel ratio in the above log using a true wideband air fuel sensor. Armed with this information, you can tune your car with complete confidence. Ease of Installation Installing the UTEC should take an average enthusiast less then 30 minutes of work using only common hand tools. It comes with a highly detailed instruction manual that will walk you though the process and have you back on the road as quickly as possible. It is important to note that while using the UTEC is easy, the power and control it gives you takes some skill to harness. The UTEC is a powerful tool. To get the most out of it, you must spend time learning the basics of engine management. Installing the UTEC and learning the interface is far easier then the process of actually learning to tune an engine. The 350Z UTEC is shipped with a base map. This base map is meant a starting place. You can plug it in and run this map and expect some decent gains over the stock ECU. However, there is quite a bit of horsepower left for a skilled tuner to extract. There is no "one size fits all" when it comes to engine tuning. Our experience with cars from stock to 500whp has taught us that you will always benefit from tuning your car for your modifications. Don't let the ease of install fool you, this is a serious tool for serious users. Connectivity: By teaming the UTEC with Turbo XS's Tuner or Tuner Pro, you are also able to datalog with a wideband 02 sensor in real time, and have your UTEC tunes based off of a real wideband 02 - just like the pro tuners use! Upgradable software: as enhancements are made to the TurboXS UTEC software, updates will be posted here as well as on TurboXS's website for immediate download.

eh not million miles

603Hp and 327kp/h

you can also buy it, I think from Courtesy IIRC

thanks guys, appreciate it

have you checked in our faq about tyre roar? have a look in there and also in the technical forum about common faults on our car, could be feathering... but yeah thicker boot mat and tonneau cover help in reducing road noise.

!!! careful if it's the first rwd car on the snake pass, car is quick even if it doesn't seem oh and

Other than having to remove the interior plastic panels... interior panels???

thought about that, quite a few active aussie owners too

jeesus, noone seems to have more info on it though

seconded the thanks to Sparkie! imo the new layout looks awesome and a vast improvement on the " blad" subsilver! thanks to all involved !

awwwwww fair enough, I guess he deserves to have the Z with most hp on a VQ35 block (isn't it?)

in fact, very soon a new tool will be available on this site that will satisfy your curiosity about basically everything you need to know about the Z

got rid of your post for you then

you tell em Steve

mate a knowledgeable salesman would make a change (mine acknowledged I knew more about the car even @ test drive stage than him lol) so feel free to learn as much as you like on the car you'll be selling!

loooooooool biatccchhhh that's me spinning aroundddddddddddd

guys may i remind you it's a FREEEEEEEEEE ticket???

usually courtesy is where people get their stuff.... you can ask one of the many US based guys on board here to help you out? i.e they buy it you send them the money and they send it to you in a normal envelope? or you could setup a group buy to see if anyone lese wants other stuff from courtesy?

these need posting..... daaaaaamn!

update from Gruppe-S http://350zmotoring.com/forums/showthread.php?t=36949 "We have dynoed the production verison of the Helix Power 350Z exhaust today on a customer's car. The car has a COMPLETLY STOCK exhaust system with a JWT Popcharger and no other mods. Because of some controversy last time, we decided to take the HIGHEST baseline number and couple with the LOWEST delta number. This yielded a 5whp and 7 ft/lbs gain. There was a run hitting 7whp / 10 ft/lbs gains, but we left that off as to avoid controversy. Again, a completely stock Z with an intake!!! Honestly we feel this is a very nice exhaust system as the system is TOTALLY STREETABLE it's only a bit louder than the Fujitsubo systems, and no where near the loudness of the straight through / dual pipe systems like the RSR, etc. Yet it makes solid horsepower gains, about the same actually as the RSR system. And you really can't beat the price for this type of quality! Our Dyno - Before everyone tries to compare dyno numbers with dynojets, our dyno is a Mustangdyne 4WD chassis dyno. It's a dyno which simulates real-world conditions, which means it applies a loading force (in this case ~3500lbs of load) and spins all FOUR wheels through a connected driveshaft. The force is the same inertial force applied onto your car when accelerating (hence the 3500lbs), and the 4wheels are spinning to keep the VDC systems happy. 210 whp horsepower for a 350Z is completely in line with a 280HP car. The 300HP Subaru STI makes about 220-225whp on our dyno, the 280HP Mitsubishi Evolution makes 210HP, and the 500HP Dodge Viper GTS makes 377whp / 423 ft/lbs on our dyno."

wish they organised some more like the day we had!

they seem to be still in business, thanks for updating me Grant.... maybe someone took them over? PS i quite like their kit for the Z

are you prepared for aches coming from your face muscles for the continual grin of driving the Z? PS
