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

The kit will fit the aftermarket bumper no problem.. I'm just saying the Fans will help support the intercooler even with the stock front end. Rumors also have it the kit will be slightly more than the Z kit due to some minor changes.

Isn't there an option for a dual intercooler setup? Something tells me this is a more reasonable setup than the fans. Comments?

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???
