Michael robinson Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Don't no it but it's missing the strut brace in the engine bay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k9l3 Posted January 16, 2012 Author Share Posted January 16, 2012 ok is that a bad sign of not being done properly? or because it wouldnt fit with supercharger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What lag i knew it wouldnt be 350 without t or sc but looks nice but with them mods will it be reliable i see you had supercharger was it reliable?

Ian Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Should be reliable, theres nothing major there that would cause issue aslong as its been looked after. Supercharger was only fitted for about 1500 miles before I sold it, it was reliable during that time though I think you may be getting confused between Revup (Which is the 06+ engine that has had some oil issues) & Up Rev (which is an ECU flash done by Abbey, Horsham & RS Tuning) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtbiscuit Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 i like the stillen setup, proper old school twin screw setup, compared to the other kits which were more like turbo snail shells. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 i like the stillen setup, proper old school twin screw setup, compared to the other kits which were more like turbo snail shells. It makes the most amazing noise, it just doesn't make the power to make it worth while and you have to have that bonnet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 410? Not a chance. Most guys on my350 barely saw above 350 & that was on the stage 4 kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
k9l3 Posted January 16, 2012 Author Share Posted January 16, 2012 i would say a 350 brake 350z is a nice enough power to make it worthwhile Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would 400hp can be done for sub £5K then you'd need to be able to buy the Zed for £3500 to make it a competitor i know they are cheap but they aint that bad yet.

Also as has been said that stuff about the Uprev is just complete bull. OP I wouldn't touch that with a 10' pole. The stillen could be a good buy for 8.5k though, may only be 350bhp but that beats 276. DB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
