fairladyzed Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 I bought my Zed already modified. It had exhaust, induction, coilovers, speed defender, bodykit and wheels. My question is, is there any way to check/tell if it has had an uprev remap already done to it. Since owning the car i have added a plenum spacer and voltage stabilizer. Quote
GMballistic Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 Have you checked all the history (receipts) with the car to see if there is anything from one of the UpRev tuners such as Horsham Developments or Abbey Motorsport? Any dyno sheet with your cars paper work? If you've added a plenum spacer then to get the benefits from that you'll really need an UpRev anyway. Quote
spursmaddave Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 You would probably have to drive a standard Zed to tell, an upRev normally gives you WOT so should be easy enough to tell from that really Quote
GMballistic Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 You would probably have to drive a standard Zed to tell, an upRev normally gives you WOT so should be easy enough to tell from that really Could try going over 155mph to see if the limiters been taken off. Probably best not done on the M25 though or similar. Quote

Just a thought but as upRev requires a license couldn't you contact them and see if there is a record http://uprev.com Edited April 9, 2015 by spursmaddave Quote

Might work contacting some UpRev tuners as you say Dave to see if they keep the cars registration in some sort of data base. Quote

Ken Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 Does the Fairlady zed get more than 1 map, if so how do you change the map setting as i don't think it has cruise control. If someone knows how to change map setting on a Fairlady you could try this, a light should flash on the dash when changed. This would indicate if it has been maped. Quote
