Advice Please !


Recommended Posts

Hi there Everyone, My name`s Andy, just joined your website, Had my Zed for about a year now, Do i have to upgrade to upload photo`s as i`ve only 2MB of space and would love to show you my baby, i`m upgrading my exhaust system as we speak, at the back i`ve fitted a japspeed Y pipe connected to a Cobta mid section and Berk Hi Flow Cats, they all fitted together no problem, AND THE SOUND !!! WOW !!!, it sounded lovely with just the Japspeed Y pipe but as soon as i fitted the Berk HFC`s you get an amazing bark at about 3500 RPM, i`ve got a Hi performance exhaust manifold to fit but there a real bugger to fit, ( you have to raise the engine to replace them ) and remove all the coolant pipes, since i`m starting to bling my engine bay i`m replacing them with all new blue silicone pipes so i`ll do that all in one go. i`ve fitted a K&N Typhoon induction system which in hindsight i think was a mistake so i`d like some advice on the best one to fit please. i`m also want to fit a Kinetix inlet manifold as they look amazing and increase air capacity as well as balance air flow to all pots, but i`d like to ask if anyone knows if i can buy them from an English distributer as the postage and import dutys from America are astronomical. after all that i`ll get it re-mapped but i`ve been warned to be careful of where i get this done as your need a specialist with a roling road to get the best results. i live in the southwest ( Torquay ) so somewhere close would be good. Eventually i`m looking to fit a Velocity SC so don`t want to spend loads now just to have to take it off later (i.e. Kinetix inlet manifold) and i`d be grateful of any other advice you could give.

Thanks, AndyMyZED3_zps2fad384d.jpg

Welcome aboard Andy. Sound's like you've got Zeditus pretty bad then like a lot of users on here. :lol:

 

Lot's of places you can go for a re-map but highly recommended on here from what I've read are places like; Abbey Motorsport & TDi North. There are others though that may be closer so try the search button to see if you get more results closer to home.

 

There's also a whole section for 350Z modifying so you may find more of your questions already answered in here;http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/21-350z-modifications/ :thumbs:

Welcome to the forum.

 

Like you, when I first got my zed I fitted Berk HFC, cobra Y-pipe and a japspeed k1. Sounds brilliant!

 

From what I've heard, The best air filter is the standard airbox ('06) with a high flow panel filter.

 

I was also looking at the kinetix plenums, although the look the nuts, they will loose power. They have been proven on dyno to be @*!#. Best of just getting a plenum spacer.

Thanks for the welcome guys,There`s nothing in the front windows, just a reflection,Gutted about the Kinetix Inlet Manifold as they look Amazing, i,m also getting a Cusco Strut Brace so could i get away with a 1/2" inch Plenum Spacer or just a 3/8" ?,

 

It depends on which kinetx plenum you mean. The one that looks like standard with a built in spacer or the one with the 6 pipes? I'm pretty sure neither of them lose you power. The cosworth loses power unless 'charged.
