Do you have a lot of e85 stations around there?
there is 1-2 on my way from and to work... not sure if i've seen one that's a few minutes away from where i live, but i never paid attention to it. but there are a couple 15-20 min from where i live for sure.

eastwest2300 09-22-2015 07:06 AM
in all honesty, im not sure if its really worth all the trouble.. and im guessing once you do it, theres no going back??

If you stick to a consistant 50/50 blend. It won't hurt a thing. If Subarus, corvettes, moostangs, and cobalts can run on it. Our N/A Z's def can without harming anything.

Or go ask some of the GT-R guys. Pretty sure some of them do.

eastwest2300 09-22-2015 07:07 AM
good luck though duuude... go all in, or stay away.. :icon17:

you can go back.. just swap the gtr injectors with the z ones and have a tune again and you're back

eastwest2300 09-22-2015 07:08 AM
ahhh dude, you cant beat that

Leingod 09-22-2015 07:09 AM
I got to the coffee first this morning. THANK GOD!!

Nice roast of Guatemalan roasted beans with a pinch of sugar. Getting compliments out the arse on it not being bitter like every other day.

eastwest2300 09-22-2015 07:09 AM
I'd do it... in the long run, it saves you money...

50/50 blend... are you saying mixing 93 50% and e85 50%?

eastwest2300 09-22-2015 07:09 AM
AND you add 10 hp....

eastwest2300 09-22-2015 07:10 AM
hell yeah, i'd do it...

they stated 10-20whp, but i'm skeptical it can be that high. if it was 10whp i'd be more than satisfied.

Do you have to get a new fuel pump too?

Yea. Although it might not be the best for our cars. That might require research. Idk what our lines are and if the ethanol will eat through anything since it's technically rated at 104/105 octane at higher elevations.

for na 370z e85 you won't need more than 600cc injectors and a 255, our fuel line material (nylon) is adequate for e85. the rubber hose of old is not. when installing the 255 make sure the hose used to run from the pump to the the filter is rated sae30r10 then you will need uprev setup with a gas tune and an e85 tune on a naturally aspirated car make sure the e85 percentage used while tuning is close to that used when filling IE before tuning run the car down to 1 or 2 lights on the gauge and fill with e85 do this same procedure every time you fill the car with e85. easy

no, according to the shop and even some of the research i did, i would just need the gtr injectors and that would be it.

from what i read it won't eat through the lines or anything like that. and i would be only running on e85, wouldn't be a 50/50 blend.

Leingod 09-22-2015 07:16 AM
If you're really nervious. Get a e85 conversion kit box. The conversion box just adds injector pulse width to the injectors to compensate for the increased fuel need of E85. Supposedly it can tell if you need more or less fuel and compensate for any mix you end up with.

e85 really cleans out the tank, but all that leftover junk gets trapped in the filter.

i wouldn't say i'm nervous, but i'd just like to know all / if any problems that i could run into.

Leingod 09-22-2015 07:20 AM
I have no idea on a 255. And it's to early in the morning to google

Walbro 255 fuel pump.

I havent looked into e85 but I remembered catching a couple threads about it. Thats why I was asking if the shop recommended a new fuel pump or not. :tup:
