Nissan 370Z Forum  

Hey Z1. ETA on those headers?

I understand their point of view. I am just hoping that they find a way to make this mod available to customers who aren't local. I don't want the mod

I understand their point of view. I am just hoping that they find a way to make this mod available to customers who aren't local. I don't want the mod for free. I am willing to pay for the mod, it just sucks that it seems that it can only be done there.

Exactly; I want the mod, I'm willing to pay, but I don't live in GA.

The only thing I can really think of is that lets say it's like the Motordyne manifold, but easier to replicate at home, they don't want to tell people what it is otherwise they "won't make money off it" and at the moment for them, they see it as, 10 locals times $500 (just throwing numbers out there) is $5000, we tell people what to do, or what it is, we get no sales...

To me this logic is flawed, because god knows Motordyne has sold a billion of those manifolds, and THEY say EXACTLY what it is, and how many people have attempted something similar? 2 that I know of... TWO, megan370Z jimmied it at home, and I made a whole ONE at my machine shop and I sold it to a friend at a loss...

Again, I don't work for Z1, and I'll step back and let them do whatever they please, it's a free country, and they already support the forum, so they get a pass by me (oh, and Dustin was cool as hell, and John is great to shoot the shít with, hell, I've never met the guy, but he KNOWS who I am as soon as I call, lol)


All that being said, I think we should crawl out of their arse and let THEM decide what's the next step, I called, I know blucelidat called, so they KNOW we are interested in this mod of theirs, lets just see what unfolds

How much does Z1 charge and how much power does it add? Tuning is required?

I thought I had it down pat. But I was wrong. I was mislead on purpose I believe. You want to make power out of the intake. Take it off. Turn it upside down. Inside you will see some squares/ outlines inside the intake track. That section needs to be ported and smoothed out.

I have a spare intake and I am planning on investigating having the plenum and runners modified to increase flow on the top end. My last dyno definitely points to a plain and simple flow limit.

You want these .................... but will only fit with the HR head conversion ...

Nissan VQ 3.5L - SF Taper throttle body kit - Jenvey Dynamics

I have these TB on my race car engine with air flowing straight at the inlet valve and they support air-flow to deliver 600hp (NA, @ crank).

If that's it, looks like I WAS correct!

Hmm are you talking about the inset grooves? Aren't those for the o-ring?

Or are you talking about something else?
