** little off topic here but** since im doing this im having an oilcooler installed at the same time. i'm being charged 400 for the oilcooler which is reasonable and average price. but $400 for the install, is that reasonable ?

I don't think thats reasonable.... I installed mine alongside my shop (I like to wrench with them) and It should go something like this...in a perfect world.
Bumper off 15 mins Oil out 5mins If you have to relocate power steering cooler 10 mins Mount cooler to car 10 minutes run and tidy up the lines 10 mins complete oil change 10 mins test run check for leaks 5 mins Bumper back on 15 mins Done 1.3-1.5 hours @ normal shop rate of $80-$90/hr = ~$135 + tax $145. Things aren't going to go 100% right the first time and there will be time wasted so throw in another $65 easily. I'd say somewhere around $200 is more fair. Now where oh where are those idling videos? |

We will be looking at all dual throttle body configurations, including the 350Z, G35 Sedan, G37 Sedan, FX35, M37..
It's just a matter of time, tuning and testing. Some of these will be a little bit, and some may not be possible at all, but they will all be looked at. |

SWEEEET, i'm sure those 350z owners with HR engine would be soo happy too, thanks for putting a lot of effort into this matter, but i was wondering if the kit would fit with a little modification, i mean you got the kit fully built now, it only needs to be modified a little to fit other HR engines. |

Fitment to the engine is the easy part, fitment to the chassis and body can be the challenging part. For example, it bolts up to the engine, but does it clear the hood? front core support? In the case of the Nismo, does it clear all of the additional bracketry? Stuff like that. We have been talking about this for the past few weeks and we all agree that even though we have customer's calling us with the 07-08 350Z or Nismo 370's, all wheel drive or convertible G's, we will not ship them a kit until WE have confirmed that everything fits and operates perfectly. With that being said, we have had a few customer's with 07-08 Z's or G37 sedan's who have said they don't care how long it takes (as long as it's a realistic time frame) they want to put down the $500.00 deposit to secure the discounted pricing. For those customer's, we are accepting the deposit so that they can lock in the discounted price. |
