I have been talking to Tony about getting on done for a long time. I just had no of getting the car to him in a cost effective manner. There would be too much shipping and tuning involved.

Ron:

I'm still not playing second fiddle, lol!

O&G:

Mach1 eh? I need to see this one. One of my boys had one and let it go because it has "not so good" aftermarket support.

Ron 02-09-2012 07:32 PM

I'll have more updates soon, right now I am waiting on the 3inch CBE from FI, should be here in a couple of weeks.

Robert_K 02-17-2012 11:49 AM

Hey want to say thanks for the Polydyn info/idea. Went ahead and had my manifolds, turbine housings and 3" test pipes coated. Waiting to hear back on the intercooler.

You and me both!!!


Hurry up Ronny! ;-)

roplusbee 02-19-2012 08:31 PM

Yes.........we are all playing the waiting game!

Ron 02-19-2012 08:54 PM

Talk to Tony and tell him to hurry up with my exhaust lol.

Ron 02-22-2012 09:59 AM

Small update. I went ahead and sent my turbos back to GTM. They will be exchanged for a set of GTX2863Rs. Jtran will handle the tune since the canned one from Sam will no longer be accurate. I don't have an ETA yet on those.

Awesome, post back with results! It was that or the OSG.

elliotty 02-22-2012 12:32 PM

Ron, did you ever figure out your clutch issues? I am still on stock clutch anxiously awaiting your opinion of the TZR before I make any moves!

Anxious to see the LSD results as well!

Ron 02-22-2012 12:34 PM

Still having the same problem. We believe its a faulty needle pilot bushing, car wont go to the shop until next monday. I do like the clutch very much and I hope the issue is not related to it.

Interesting. I hope it is not the clutch as well (doubt that it is, after reading through some of the other threads). Although, I don't get why many seem to do fine with the upgraded CSC, but when it is paired with an aftermarket clutch, things seem to get out of whack.

The Nismo bushing?

Ron 02-22-2012 12:48 PM

My tech readjusted the cruise control switch and clutch rod, and it seem to have improved it a tiny bit. It still hang up here and there, but still livable. For the past week 5th gear is randomly grinding. It gets in easily, but it grinds. I get into 4th, then back to 5th and it's fine. O_o

I remember back in '08 when I was N/A. :bowrofl:

Ron 02-28-2012 12:01 PM

I have everything ready, money for install and some OMG WTF money is just sitting there!!

I'm not worried about not having the exhaust yet bc that is the last thing that gets installed. I just need to get the new turbos from GTM. Hopefully this week or the next.

Dembflyr 02-28-2012 12:06 PM

I think it's funny that you are at page 16 and a wrench hasn't even touched the car. :D

Ron 02-28-2012 12:07 PM

haha I know!
