stage 2....what kit?

Gamma

subbed

Awesome! Looking forward to seeing this! Sub'd.

sub'd good luck with the install and everything proceeding!

I finished my stage 2 gtm kit 3 weeks ago ...so far no issues ......if you have any questions let me know I might be able to help

What numbers did you make?

Will do thanks,iam pretty well finished disasembly,I'll be installing engine mount soon,are you using ecutek tunning?

I haven't put it on the Dyno yet ...and only been able to monitor the afr through the laptop with cipher ....I have a single a-pillar being made now and should be it in like 2 more weeks. I'm prolly gonna use the zeitronix zt-2 afr/boost gauge. Also the tune I got from Jon at z1 seems to be ok .. But I think it's still needs some work. Anyone know what numbers a nismo gets from the out of the box gtm tune on a stage 2?

One thing I did noticed when installing the motor mount on the passenger side ...the bolts through the new mount that go through the the red polyurethane bushings have about 1/4 inch extra thread once tight and it slightly touched transmission housing causing a tapping/spark knocking sound at lower rpms. Took me a whole week to find it ...I used a dremel to grind down a few thread of the bolt .....something I wished I did before installing.

I'm using the uprev to tune as well

Where are you getting it done? I am from Ontario as well, weather is above 9 degrees so not too bad :)

Doing it myself,I was a certified auto mechanic at a Toyota dealer for 10years,I enjoy tinkering in my garage on projects
