The new kit has a different inter cooler with more exits, it has one for right side and one left side for stock intake instead of the y fitting on one side like the stillen intake manifold has.
I am looking forward to upgrading to the new Filter design if it increases air flow to the SC, cuz MORE BOOST= MORE POWER!!!

Getting the Z paid off AND a refined kit from TopgunZ in the same year. :happydance:

Sub'd with keen interest :tup:

Oh! It has a better / upgraded intercooler than the previous A2A kits? Didn't know that! Cool. Great to know :) I like it! Thanks for the info!

Topgunz, you just let me know when you want my credit card number ��

I've been trying to throw money at this guy for over a month now on the new kit but he won't budge until he is ready to sell lol.

Good things come to those who wait lol

YES love this.soon as a finish on the Q50 its back to the G and Supercharger time.

will it be in time for Black Friday???

Which is probably a good thing. I’d much rather have that than he take my money and keep me on hold with the goods.

Ya I know some people look at it that way, I don't have a problem with just putting money down and waiting. It gives me a piece mind knowing that I am paid in full and in line for a kit but to each their own.

Great Job Aaron!
Likes the new design much more.

But, why didn't you go OEM all the way? I mean, why won't you use a oem fit intercooler like in AAM TT kit or GTM SC.

Attached example.

I think it would be a good option for people that are not chasing the numbers
Maybe if the kit had 2 options

Here in the UK the roads are so tight and twisty 550 crank is more than you need it's more about driveable power than straight line power

In some countries it is illegal to run without the front crush bar.
So that may limit the sales of this kit.

Also, OEM look is sleeper

Its probably isn't here either

Do you have a picture that is from an actual 370Z?

I am assuming to keep a sleeper look you are saying you wouldnt want the intercooler visual. Well, that would make for one terribly inefficient intercooler setup. The only way to hide it is to block it off from air flow.

This is a aam car here in uk making over 500
And the other is the twin charged rev you car making 700 https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...e0d5b01a1d.jpghttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...d6133d4fc6.jpg

There is always pros and cons.
But for me (Israel) it is a break dealer for purchasing this kit.
Outside of the USA there are many countries that have regulation regarding vehicle stracture changes. Israel is one of them.
Me and also many other Z owners will surely appreciate if you release a kit with intercooler that does not require to remove the front crush bar.

Also, not everybody are all about huge power. For me 500whp on 95+ron will be quite satisfying.

Many of us running Aaron's first kit use the Fast Intentions crash bar in lieu of the factory one. https://www.fastintentions.com/produ...roducts_id/177 I guess I don't really know if this will fit w/ the newer, larger intercooler, but it may be an option.

The AAM setup is dual inlet, dual outlet, the ACE setup is single inlet, dual outlet, so you can't use the exact same IC as the AAM kit.

Interesting that there'd be a country or region that'd allow significant engine mods but be picky about your crash bar, as the crash bar doesn't affect the survivability of the occupants, just helps to reduce damage in a minor crash.

I believe you can just trim the back of the OEM bar to clear the previous kit?

Will that be the same clearance with this new kit? I would like to keep my OEM bar for the foam impact absorber, even if I have to trim the OEM bar a bit.

can anyone else confirm that this is the case? It's been on my mind in considering this kit.

Well... I'm not gonna risk my life (as well as my engine), no matter what... :rofl2:

It dosnt need to be the same cooler just one that's a similar size with inlets/outlets to suit

You can have a custom cooler built for a few 100 so I dont see why it would be an issue to design a cooler that fits
That's all gtm or aam would have done


Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

Since it is so cheap then it shouldn't be an issue for you. Order the kit, ask him to not include the intercooler or hardware for it, then spend the "few 100" to have one built for yourself along with the associated hardware and piping modifications to make it fit. Problem solved.

Worst case, if you like the way the AAM or GTM (or whoever carries whatever inventory they have left) kits fit, buy one of those instead.

That's not the point Aaron knows i 100% support this kit and I run the mk1 kit

My point is from a sales point of view a lot of people would be put off by not running the crash bar in the uk and some guys literally are not allowed to mod that part of the car

It personally dosnt bother me I have run without for long enough and would again
My point was a custom cooler can be made for a few 100
I don't know why you would take that personally and tell me to buy someone else's product





Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

I agree with you.

The point of buying a kit, is that you don't want to invest in any modification. You want to install the parts with minimum effort, be legal and tune the ECU.

If I had the time to invest, I would have built my own kit. But I don't.

Aaron decided to take the glove and do the hard work, creating his kit for us.

I will appreciate if he will take in account all the Z owners in Israel, UK and other countries which are not going to remove the front crush bar.

Here in Israel, it's a law. No matter what is the reason. Also, any other trimming or stracture changes.



Sent from my ONEPLUS A6003 using Tapatalk

Would the Fast Intentions style crash bar not be legal in both your areas? The reason I ask is that iirc, Aaron said he's developing one for his kit.

It's not just the legal obligation

When I first fitted the mk1 kit there was a few people that loved the kit bit just wouldn't alter what they classed at crash structures on the car

I felt the trade off was worth the sacrifice as the water kit was rubbish as we know

As im not chasing 600/700 I think a smaller cooler would be fine for my needs but I get Aaron is trying to cover all basis

Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

With his old kit, a few people modified the stock crash bar to work with the smaller intercooler. I'm not sure how it affected the structural integrity of the crash bar though.

I will run the kit either way because just putting that stillen manifold in the bin dose it for me ha ha


Sent from my SM-G960F using Tapatalk

I agree. The stillen manifold is a pos.

I call this the Cannon intake. Flow Tests show more than 1400cfm.

More to come soon!

Can it be 3d printed , just wondering why it has to be metal?

Keep all the updates coming on this and the new kit results. :driving:

Sweet! Looking good!

Sent from my Pixel 3 using Tapatalk

Because I don't believe there is a reliable 3D printing material that can withstand cycling of peak under hood temps down to negative degree temperatures, coupled with the stresses which will be applied to it, for years on end.

would this work with your previous kit?

I don't think there should be any reason why it wouldn't.

:iagree::iagree:
Since it's only to relocate the air cleaner and uses the same SC and its location.
