"you can get a net of 5-10hp with SUPPORTING MODS"

 

If you don't feel like reading all of it, this is an excerpt from the link which sums up the CAI myth on the VQ -->"Without tuning and calibration the ECU cannot adapt to a MAF housing that is a different size than the stock one. Whether larger or smaller, the ECU will likely have issue with adapting to a MAF housing that isn’t the same size as the stock housing" If you cannot grasp this concept, then insisting CAI's w/o SUPPORTING MODS (e.g. retune etc.) are effective without knowing the operating tolerances of the ECU and MAF sensor is just plain ignorant.

Also, if you look at the data sheet link on his thread you will realize that putting in a NEW OEM filter yields the best bang for the buck. Go figure, the real engineers at the engine design section of nissan know a thing or two

 

look were not gonna give any advices to certain point its your damn car and your money. do what you wanna do it seriously, if you wanna know our opinion part, its cost you 50 bucks, we did our research and all the stuff we need to know about the cars. we tell you things to get or what not the result from OUR research, and you question it? what ever man do what you want. like i said its YOU MONEY...we might not agree to your choices but does it matter? its YOU choice..................... got some thing to say LMK... and if you do best bet is to sell your car and bounce............... go look at the DIY threads learn from it, you cant learn from what we tell you, you learn from EXPERIENCE............

now for sunday....11 am, PM for the address

 

I will admit that most aftermarket intakes do sound awesome on the VQ! But that's all you would gain really.

 

Stay away from the underdrive pulleys. They are lead to a fuc<ed engine

I when to ATL. You got to pay to play.

I never owned a Honda in my life.

For $900 I would find better coilovers

I have a fidanza flywheel

I installed them on my G way back in 2006. All you need is a heat gun (which I have), soapy water, and squeegee, its not that hard.



If you add more air, you also need to add more fuel. Our ECU can only do so much before you need a reflash/tune

Yup



The welds are what you are paying for. I had them with my HKS, I like HFC's better, plus if you have VA tags you will NOT pass the VA state safety inspection with test pipes.

I would sell the rims you have and looking into nicer set. Look here http://https://g35driver.com/forums/...al-photos.html

Z-tubes are the stock intake tubes from a 350Z.

Also please lay off the Navy stuff, we understand you love your job, but this is a car forum.

 

Munky!!!!!!!!!!!!!! let them know

 

Hey buddha, having computer (my doo doo blackberry) problems. Did you receive PM.

 

Did i miss something.. Or are we fighting?

 

No.

 

no fighting here....just a little frustration going on. people ask for help and when given help they seem to want to question it. when i first got my g35 i was clueless. i got on here and searched for info on what mods i wanted. i learned how to install all my mods by myself from the dyi treads. i am willing to help people to choose and install mods, but when people ask for help and then question it...well all i can say is there is a search feature on this site, youll find info to support what i said...i spent hours researching for what mods i wanted to do, the g35 mods are expensive and i wanted the best bang for the buck...i came form the honda seen like buddha, and one thing i can say...the vq does not work like a b/k series motor...if you have a question that i cant answer, ill be fast to give you "i dont know". ask munky, buddha, cabad, all our install have been done with the help of the DYI treads

 

I mean I trust you guys input, no questioning here. Just didn't really understand why it was that way. You guys have been doing this a lot longer than me. I also came from hondas, like a month ago lol. So just still learning. I am very greatfull for all you guys help, and for not being short with me and just telling me to find out for my self and search, as I don't have a lot of time on my hands. And apologize for my ignorance on the matter.
On that note, I'm probably still going to eventually get an intake, understanding no gains. However, I am partial to the sound and looks, and have plans of tuning in near future as soon as I get all the other little things I want and figure out what program to use.
I appreciate all the help and input you guys have kicked my way.

 

Gonna be bringing my car here from california next month. lookin forward to joinin the group. Any other CB's in the mix?

 

Anyone trying to meet up later? Candi is having a girl party later and I am not trying to be there. Hit me up and let me know.

 

Thanks. I was reading up in the pulleys and most people say the same thing. Coils should be coming next month I just need to ask around to see which ones are giving a nice ride.
