I got the kit and started the install 12/23 and finished it yesterday. It bolts on the sedan without a fitment issue. The only variation was the relief valve inthe fuel pump assembly was different, see poorly focused pic. And the left headlight ballist was in the way. As far as the relief valve, I did nothing. My fuel pressure gauge does not have the trick end and I did not want to chop up the fuel line and throw in a T so I will take it in and have Infiniti take a reading. Also while it's there the can read the error code for the service engine soon light, mite be high pressure. The SES light came on the first time I started it. I reset the ECU and it stayed off for the next 3 or 4 starts then it lit up again and then went out with out a reset, that was yesterday. 7 or 8 starts today with some road tests and no light! Ok the road test, I live in Rochester NY and today the roads were only wet, so in #rd gear @ 5k the tires broke loose, I did try 4th. Its like the old days when I use to race a Speedway bike. That was with out the fans working, I did not get the fuse tap for the fan relay. So maybe tomorrow the roads will be dry and I can go by a fuse tap. Or snow

 

You can call Turbonetics and they can overnight you a fuse tap. I think it might have been left out of the first 2-5 kits that shipped. They have them in stock right now though and it can get shipped. Without a modified FPR you might have fuel pressure as high as 70 PSI at idle...

 

my fuel pressure is 53 psi without modifying the relief valve.

 

Thats pefect then. 53 PSI is what Turbonetics sets the fuel pressure at...

 

Thanks

 

Before going ST, what did you have done to your car? Did you get the Valve upgrade? Also, your car is a 5AT?

 

I have done all the work myself. I am a retired firefighter from the Rochester Fire Dept. and needed something to do in the non golfing season, otherwise my wife would find something for me to do! These are the mods, 1/2 spacer, Z tube like intake w/K&N air filter, blinder xtreme 20 laser jammer, passport 850, some gizzmo that plugs into the sat input on the radio so I can hard wire my mp3 player, and a remote starter that now doubles as a turbo timmer. The car is an 03 sedan w/6mt, second tranny. It would not Shift from 1st to 2nd without using both hands when it got below 20 degs, did I mention that I live in Rochester NY, we beaten Buffalo 9 out of 10 years for annual snow accumulation!

You asked about a valve upgrade, are you talking about the valve body on a 5at?

 

I was thinking of doing this very thing, but havent looked back there to see what is involved in plugging it in. Is it just an RCA to mini-headphone jack adaptor? Did you have to take the whole dash apart to get back there?

 

You have to buy the gizzmo, search AAI-NIS. They go for around $75. and are exponentially better than an fm tuner for a mp3 player.http://www.beachaudio.com/product_in...ducts_id=27865

 

Excellent. Thanks. but looks like PAC is upgrading the firmware on the next generation on these, so everybody has them on backorder until end of January.

 

Congrats on the install and welcome to the club. Did you dyno it already? What kind of power are you making at what boost and A/F?

Have fun.

 

no dynos in rottenchester, I've will have to call a shop in buffaol. Are you running the basic TN reflash and if so what are your numbers?

 

pic request and oil cooler.........
if, and that's big if, you have pic of front of vehicle, bumper level?
oil cooler, did that stay where it was? i would think it would get no air from the fmic being right in front of it? thanks.
getting some octane issues clarified for running car here so-california, so anxious to get this kit!! i'll install the kit myself and a mechanic friend said he'll assit if needed.......

edit: looked closely at your pics,,,and guess what, i too have the 1/2"(MD) spacer, kn panel filter and ztube.....wow, exact bolt-ons......you know what they say, great minds think alike...!

 

if by oil cooler you mean the power steering oil cooler that gets moved. Here is a link to the installation instruction, it is for the 350 z but very similar. http://members.***.net/turbonetics35...icsinstman.pdf
