I have a PWR rad it is 52mm if I recall right. I have yet to get an oil cooler but this summer I will have one installed. I have to get my photo bucket sorted out ( I lost the pass word) or I would go snap a few pictures of the sideband gauges. It is still a work in progress the gauges are just velcroed in.

Personally I dont buy no name ebay stuff for my car, but if you are comfortable with it then go for it. I have seen too many ebay parts that dont even come close to fitting or have other issues. It is your call but the rad looks to have everything in the correct places

I brought it off idrivesti who had it on his G but im 100% sure its a 350Z Koyo as the rad neck is on wrong side, its in middle to right and should be on the left...

But apart from that it fits perfect and other lower and upper rad hoses fit 100%
I was gonna make bracket up to lock in the mounting tabs but honestly ill do it later as the force of the hoses keep it in bay. The aircon rad fits in the slots in front of it perfect also. No mods needed except a longer overflow pipe.

Oh yeah also the front airduct will not fit due to the fill cap being in the way, but as im going FI i dont need it .

Anyone got any ideas how to connect the tubro XS boost solenoid?

When I tried a UTEC several years ago, the shift light and knock light both were not functioning - this is what an engineer at TurboXS told me. Perhaps they have it working now (but I doubt it since I don't think there has been a software update in 5 years).

Shift light works perfect, goes off when ever shift point it set except for 1st gear. I only just brought it so who knows.. I even turned sensitivity up to max and it retarded my power as it was sensing knocks to much.. (i didnt even know it would do this). At first i unplugged it cause i couldnt make it up my drive way and didnt know what was happening. I then realized it may have been due to me turning it all the way up.. have not tested it again.
