If it isn't broke snip it, pull the fuse, or buy the harness. I'll post the links if you want. They are all here in the Z forums.

Well good to know. Yes those are now on the list and the FI, depending on the price, are off. They both look the same as well. So if one is $14k and the other is 6k. Easy choice. They will go great with the 4.5 upgrade I'm saving up for right now.

It's the new GTM twin turbo kit on the FI page....I guess blackandorange has some inside info on the price. The price is for every stage as well.

Oh and I read they also do financing now on their products. GTM just raised the bar for everyone to hit. That's how you take out the competing turbo companies.

Exactly. well it depends on if their financing is A) you get the product and have (x) time to pay it off, or B) if you can just slowly pay on the product and they ship it to you when u pay for the whole amount. if its B) a couple companies, including sts and stillen do that

Yeah but we both know that STS is shyt. Well the kit I had. Either way, that seems like the way to go. Unless they charge you interest....if they send you the parts first.

Well after reading through a few of the oil cooler threads I just pulled the trigger on a 25 row with thermostatic plate from z1. If anyone else is interested in these use code FREEWRAP
for free insulation of the lines which was a $30 add-on option.

Whoops. Chalk one up for impulse purchases. I'm starting to pile this stuff up. Putting of installs because "well I might as well wait til I buy _____ so I can install them at the same time"
Got hi flow cats, hawk pads, filter and redline oil and soon an oil cooler waiting. Want to do the cats at the same time as a CBE. Want to do a G3 intake when I have the bumper off for the oil cooler. Why not do the cats when the stock tubes/boxes are off for the intake ie why not do it all at the same time? lol

I agree. Trust me when we tore the turbo out of my car I learned a ton about this car. Exhaust, cats, oil coolers, fuel injectors etc. These cars are pretty easy to work on. Just be warned about the demon bolts. If you haven't read anything on them plan on spending a good portion of the day taking 8 bolts off. They are a beating.

Yeah I've heard of them. I was going to see if my buddy (his dad owns Santa Fe Body) has any friends at a Nissan dealer than would lend the oil wrench for an hour or w/e it's called to remove them
