Vinh,

I just stumbled across this thread. I don't really check the F.I. forum. Looking sweet bro, I mean really nice.

I'm proud to say that NorCal has two of the baddest coupes on these forums.

areddy-- no, since you would still be using the reducer to mate the intermediate pipe to the mid-pipe.

i picked up the car yesterday

besides a slip and vdc off light staying on (problem to be fixed), the car drives like a dream. good power, great driveability.

the JWT clutch...whether it's the clutch itself or the install, but the engagement point is lower than stock. much easier to drive. i drive my friend's cars, and this new clutch feels like a "std" clutch.

car will go back for the APS TD exhaust in the next week or two.

signing off....

vinh

wow, a thread being brought back from the dead.

no finished photos, yet.

car will be back down at the shop next week to be fitted with a modified 350Z APS TD exhaust. Goal now is to hit 400+ rWHP on 91 oct with stock internals. I'll be putting this on a std dynojet several weeks later so we can get "comparative" results.

will get a couple of other issues ironed out and the car will be complete.

looking at APS TT too. Also, talking to Ted@Scott's Performance, he says that it will apply to my '04 G35X. Which i never thought could happen. first time i've heard that. Thot the only F1 for us was the Stillen SC.

whyd u go w/ the ST instead of TT? was it cost?

i would think that a ST has less strain on the engine than a TT. Plus the cost factor too.
