I can do alot but I'm not a mechanic. I did my install with help from a friend that owns a shop. Everything I did was made easier with the lift but it was all 100% doable on stands at home. I made a few slip ups here and there with the caveat that my profession involves guns and not wrenches. If you get the kit, take your time, double check connections, invest in a turbo blanket, wrap everything including your wiring harness and then do a triple check on EVERYTHING you touched. Do all that and you wake up boosted with an awesome kit that will draw looks from the spooling sound it makes on the road and people looking underneath will be in awe of Sashas work on the manifold and recirculation. All this.

I think my tune is finally done, with ecutek traction control and without is night and day.

I love this kit sooo much!

You running E85 or 93? You have quite a bit of detonation

If I have an issue with my tune I am all ears.

I am running flex fuel, these videos were at E81. Are your referring to the backfire? That was during a flat foot shift.

What is need besides the full turn key kit?

1 Oil Cooler

2 Upgraded clutch??

3 Oil pan spacer??

Just curious

Oil cooler and spacer is included. You'll need the clutch (and csc, flywheel also recommended), gauges, boost controller, a mile of header wrap, a radiator if you live in a hot climate, and a good tuner.

^THIS^

Chuck's physical help was key to my install so he has first hand experience.

Just a tip. If you plan to run an oil temp sensor its an awesome idea to take the spacer to a machine shop as soon as you get it and have them drill it and tap for 1/8 npt. Another piece of cheap insurance is a turbo blanket. I still have to tap mine but I got the turbo blanket post install after melting my trans harness. My fault for not raising the harness high enough but the amount of heat thats produced by the turbo is incredible and the blanket would've saved me tons of worry and heartache. (New harness 1900.00 /splicing is free but a pain.)

If the sensor is attached directly to the pan spacer, are you certain it will be submerged in the oil? I would worry that the oil level would be below the sensor.

The kit comes with a JWT spacer, the difference between that and the AAM spacer is the 1/8 npt port, so I'm pretty sure it works. Thats also where the AN fittings attach to the spacer.

And they are meant for a temp sensor? It would make sense for a turbo oil return (which is supposed to be above the oil level in the pan for proper drainage)... which is why I am questioning that location for an oil temp sensor since it may not be submerged in the oil.

Also.. would you want the oil temp sensor in the pan? Or in the pressurized feed just after the oil cooler?

I haven't installed one of these, so I am really just thinking outloud here...

Anyone know if this would work with the 2016-2017 stock nismo exhaust or I'd have to switch out to fast intentions?

Not directly from Sasha it won't but you could have the downpipe custom fabricated to make it work. I had to do that to get it to fit with my Fast Intentions exhaust since this kit isn't 'made' for a G.

It's that or buy an exhaust that fits the kit directly.

I shot out an email to Sasha but can anybody give a part no. and source for the air filter? Turns out my heat damage extended to the top of the filter. It's ugly

That's really odd.

Sorry, no help on the filter. I have a different compressor cover.

Does uprev have to be used with this kit or can it be fully tuned with ecutek? I see jax has ecutek traction.

The components of the kit don't care what engine manage to to use. My recommendation is go with the one the best tuner you know uses. Doesn't matter what software it is if the tune is ****.

The oil pan spacer is thick, and for that reason it would not be a good idea to put an oil temperature sensor in it. Because the sensor probe is so short, it would be sitting in the cavity of a thick oil pan spacer, not giving an accurate reading.

If you are to use a long temp sensor probe like the one below, then all is good:

I already talked with Kevin from Fast Intentions. He said that there was no confirmed cases as this, but I was wondering if the FI front tow bar will work on the boosted performance FMIC.

Any other solution to the crash bar issue. I tried searching the forum and Sasha made mention of looking into it (and I PMed him), but I couldn't find any outcomes.

Thanks

Let me know when you get it figured. I definately want my tow capability back. It's a pain when you don't have it and a fat tow truck driver shows up.

I used a mix of hardware to space the factory tow bar out about 9mm and everything still fits fine.. Even the bumper reinforcement so the bumper won't sag.

Edit: I have a Gamma V3 TT kit, not a BP kit. Just throwing out an idea.

The FI "front toe bar" will not work around the BP intercooler. This has indeed already been confirmed

Whose car? I've never heard of someone trying it.

Do you have a picture of it with the bumper off?

My post was a little misleading... I don't have the BP Kit, I have a Gamma V3 TT kit. So YMMV.

I forgot to take pictures of the bar refitted.. but I did snap one pick of the threaded standoffs I used for the studs (since they weren't long enough with the spacers). It did require drilling two holes in the tow bar larger.

Thanks for the pic. I'll see if I can find someone who can fab up the oem bar.

I'm running Ecutek on this kit tuned by Dynosty and loving it.

Last weekend's racing. I still have work to do only ran a 12.31 @ 116mph. 60' times were too high @ 2.03

Lmk if you need any other info.

I guess I missed this the first time around? You had to add 9mm of spacer to get the bumper beam back on?

I thought one of the major selling points of the MHI/Gamma V3 was that it fit out the box?

They provide 6mm spacers and the same hardware fits... for some reason I couldn't get my intercoolers in as much and I needed a few extra mm. Groovestyle didn't have that issue..

Ok. Such is the world of aftermarket parts.

haha, love the fan base ;) Hope my kids are the same way as they get older!

...side note....dat turbo spool from the grand stands doe!!! damn!

must. get. this.

Apologize if this has been asked before but i can't find anything - I saw that the CSC elimination kit is incompatible due to clearance, is the ZSpeed CMAK kit also incompatible?

Cmak?

Its Zspeed's CSC elimination kit. (ZSpeed CMAK Clutch Movement Alteration Kit CSC Delete)
ZSpeed Performance Nissan 300ZX 350Z 370Z Infiniti G35 G37 Q50 Q60

The Zspeed csc elimination kit is more compact then the z1 kit, but it looks like it would still be a tight clearance between the turbo outlet/intercooler pipe and tranny. Joe @ Zspeed might be able to clarify.

There's no room there for anything else. It's packed pretty tight.

What he said. The crossover piping hugs the tranny as close as possible.
