PhilTheForce Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 Hey guys, as I mentioned before I'm eyeing up my first Z very soon. Especially with the prices of early import models at the mo. But after reading a lot about Zed performance mods I have 2 questions: 1. Its been mentioned that some early Jap models can be modded for performance (E.G Filter, exhaust etc) and hold onto the bhp increase without the usual ECU smack-down. Is this proven fact? and if so 2. Which models/years does it apply to? Obviously I'll be on the lookout for one if it's true! Thanks (Sorry if it's been covered before - I couldn't see it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M13KYF Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 only very early JDM Z's does this apply to Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanS16 Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 A very reliable source who isn't around these forums any more told me that some 03 plates have them. Other than that I'd look at an 02/52 plate if that's what you are after. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhilTheForce Posted January 12, 2009 Author Share Posted January 12, 2009 hehe, I'm surprised there is such a Zed presence in the area - I never see any about! Just to clear things up I was living further down the Stratford Road (Towards Robin Hood) but now I'm right by Lighthall School, Shirley. So yeah I'm back in Solihull...and can be a snob again!
