Hello from lurking Noob


Recommended Posts

I haven't yet got myself a 350z, but have been lurking and reading posts while I hunt down an orange 350z with tan/orange interior. Everyone I've seen so far is either high mileage or the other end of the country. I can't wait to get my hands on one. :D

 

In the meantime, here's a few pictures of my current car, a mk2 Mazda Mx5.

The SC belt was off at the time of the engine bay photo and I'm still tuning my Megasquirt, but my car specs are. - 2000 Mk2 1.6 - Jackson Racing M45 Supercharger - 62.5mm nose pulley - 150mm Crank Overlay - 550cc Bosch EV14's - Jackson Racing Air/Water intercooler - Dual Throttle Bodies - Megasquirt - AEM Boost Gauge - AEM Wideband - Borla Sports Duals.

Thanks, I know the stripes wouldn't be to everyone's taste, but I liked them. The car was making just short of 220bhp when I finished with it, not a bad increase from the standard 110bhp the 1.6 engine was originally running at.

 

I'll run my zed as standard for a while when I get one, but plan on fitting forced induction once I've learned my way round the car, so expect loads of questions. :lol: Out of interest, what is the aftermarket ecu of choice with the 350z's. when it comes to forced induction?

Welcome to the club.

Mx5 looks interesting, not a fan looks wise but they are a good drivers car and with double the standard power that should be fun!

 

ECU of choice for a normal S/C zed is OEM. This can be re-tuned by a few places in the country. It's called UPREV . If you search on here there is loads of info on it.

There are aftermarket options if you've got money to burn and want more tuning options for a more serious set up.
