I will make 6 revised pipe kits for all you guys that have purchased these kits in the past. Will have to order the thermostats shortly here, and build a few hoses. One of the hoses can be reused, but one new one has to be made to reach from the cooler (right hand side) to the thermostat. I already have the silicone couplers, all the aluminium piping, BOV flanges as well as the non modified compressor covers.

Sounds great Sasha. As we've previously discussed, don't ship me any new hoses. I'm going to start over from scratch since I'm the only G kit out there. Although most things are similar there are enough differences in things like hose lengths to make a difference. I'm hoping building fit for purpose hoses and eliminating the GReddy relocation adapter will finally rid me of these stubborn oil leaks.:tup:

Is there a list or an order of people that will be able to buy this coming round? Or is it first come first serve when you post that you are taking money?

I will probably go with first come first serve, but will send those who inquired a PM before the official posting.

Last time I did the whole "list" thing, there were about 15 potential customers. Out of the 15, only 4 actually bought a kit. So it is kind of pointless since things change in peoples lives, and other priorities take over at times.

Gotcha, I'll be patiently waiting

I think the most epic list fail has to have been the GTM MHI list. Something like 150 people on it, 0 kits delivered! I am sure everyone here appreciates how you manage expectations and run your business.

I wonder what's going on with it. More than half the year is up. There is no way in hell Sam is still waiting for parts to make his pipes.

i will be in for v1.5 as well. what was the cost again to upgrade? i can't remember which thread it was in

Sasha,

What ever happened to the catted exhaust mod? Is this still in the works? I would still love to buy this if you made them.

I'm also interested in this. 2015 is approaching and I'll need to pass an e-test on the Z before next summer.

Sasha, if you don't intend to build the catted downpipes, I'll have to look into getting dum-dum O2 sensors to simulate a healthy cat so I can turn back on the post cat O2 monitors. Having the post cat monitor turned off = automatic e-test fail = no plate renewal. F@$k the tree huggers :mad:.

I just had my car emission testing thinking i would pass. My car was rejected. Now I have to look at other options. Next thing I am going to try are foulers or O2 bung extensions.

The upgrade will consist of the following items:

All new turbo to FMIC piping with BOV flange
New turbo compressor cover
Mocal thermostatic plate
One new -8an oil cooler line
One new oil filter
New air filter
New turbo inlet gasket
One additional silicone coupler

The price will be about $800. I thought I could keep it a bit lower, but all the materials and labour add up in a hurry.




I have not had that much time too look in to incorporating the converters in to the system. There isn't all that much room, and the converters I received were not as compact as I had hoped.

Just passed my emissions with the turbo kit on. Lol

What did you do with the o2's? Curious because i have to do emissions in a few months.

I didn't do anything to my O2 sensors. I didn't buy any extenders or o2 bungs.

This is what I did.

1. Buy or borrow a OBDII scanner.
2. Make sure your O2 sensors are activated in your Tune.
3. Plug in OBD II scanner. Clear any codes that are there.
4. Drive 5 miles at 60 mph.
5. Slow down to a stop.
6. Turn around and drive 5 miles at 60 mph back.
7. Went WOT in second and third gear. (Just for fun.)
8. Car was ready for emissions. It was not ready prior to going WOT.

Not sure if it mattered with going WOT but that is exactly what I did prior to passing.

I would check and refresh the OBDII scanner every couple minutes. Once it shows that you only have 1 monitor incomplete then you are basically ready to do your emissions. Check if there are any pending codes. When I check there were no codes.

Once it is ready, go straight to the emission facility and have them test it. Make sure you do not turn your car off after you get your car ready for emissions. The guy at the emission facility will turn your car off but you should still be able to pass.

If you are unlucky you may have to end up driving like 50+ miles to get it ready for emissions.

Then when you pass. You :happydance: and :driving:
