Thanks for the info, bro.

On another topic. My differential bushings are busted, started to leak, and needs to be replaced. The bad news is the repairs dipped into my Fujimura fund. The great news is it'll be replaced with Whitelines by Seb at Specialty Z and will get tuned after.

The Fujimura kit will be on hold. Timing couldn't have been worse. They are on sale at Bespoke/370ZTune. Photoshop courtesy of cooltoy.

Diff bushings can be done here!!!

Tempting. I save a couple of bills I know.

Santa Ynez Wine Run
 

This was three weeks ago just before the headlight mod.

Did a wine run to Santa Ynez just a couple of hours north of Valencia, CA. No idea that the differential bushings were bad. Not until after the mod and a visit to F.I.

Differential Bushings replaced.
 

Went to Specialty Z to replace the differential bushings. It was beat up so enough of the silicone mess and got Whitelines installed. The change in drive quality is quite noticeable. Glad I went with this. Tony actually caught it and was the one who brought it up while she was up on a lift. He could not get me in so I went to Seb at SpecialtyZ.

Andrew (DEpointfive0) being his usual self offered to help and hook me up. Thanks for offering to help Andrew. Always thought you were a great guy. I'll still buy you a beer even if your buddy never got to do it.

In the end. Car runs great.

How was the 370z wine? :icon17:

Damn I love this car.

Not too bad. I'd serve it to my friends. It does

Thank you sir.:tiphat:

Uprev Tune at Specialty Z
 

After the differential bushing was replaced, she had a tune at Specialty Z. Seb did his magic. I like the improvement out of this tune.

Baseline HP/TQ was 283.56 / 235.97
First run 305.56 / 248.38
Second run 308.18 / 247.75
Final run 312.03 / 272.23
5 Maps

That is an impressive improvement in torque over the three runs. +/- 10%? Nice.

Congrats on the numbers! Car looks and sounds awesome :driving:

Thanks! 283.56 / 235.97 to a final pull @ 312.03 / 272.23

+10% HP and +15% Torque gained after the tune. Not to mention improved gas mileage. 19.2 to 25 ave mpg. We'll see long term what it looks like.

Nice numbers and mpg!

Very Nice!:tup:
