Yea I know about that thread. I was just pretty freaked out though. I'm currently paying for the kit, and the guy tells me 3 weeks.. but now he tells me that's at minimum so I was hoping someone had a clue.
I guess it really depends on when Turbonetics finishes up the fan set up.

There will be a full write up on the install and my car in the next sport z. -jamey

I think I'm in the same boat as you guys about the ST.
I currently have all the internals for a engine build lol. But after putting a down payment for a Condo in Boston, I don't think it was very investing to throw another 6k into building the block for Greddy (especially for tuning etc). I will eventually put the internals in when I settle down with the house etc.
I drove a friend's turbonetics Z and it was a hell of a difference. Best of all, there's no tuning really involved!
I guess the Fan setup they are working on will make it compatible with the stock front end. Which is awesome because I would like to keep my Nismo Front clip
Only issue I will have is I will need to fabricate a reverse Y pipe for my HKS TI's. True Dual isn't compatible with the Turbonetics
I ordered my kit yesterday. I'm in for the 1st batch of Turbonetics G35!
Counting the days till Turbonetics ships!
What I am going to install with the turbo:
JWT Oil Pan Spacer
ACT Stage 3 Clutch
Turbonetics ST
HKS Irdium 1 step colder Spark Plugs
Boost/Oil Pressure/Wideband Gauges
And much needed... SPC Rear Camber arms

I don't know about dual intercoolers since they might cause boost lag..
I believe there's a twin turbo kit that has a dual intercooler set up... TINMAN has it?

So u guys are puttin down that much power on stock internals? I don't understand....it seems like people are only worrieda about doing internals with the Greddy kit...Aren't you guys scared of the stock aluminum block not being able to handle the power???
