Sorry to hear about the issues. Unfortunately this isn't anything new or a shock to me. From what I've seen, they sound great but the fitment and craftsmanship lacks.

Something doesn't add up. I feel like they're quoting for the dash and all the components with it, not just the dash.

That was not too long after Toyota had the major lawsuit about the gas pedals and floor mats. It doesn't surprise me they "voluntarily" did this.

This is not only an issue with the 370z, but also the G series as well. Certain chemicals can cause issues with the dash long-term but also the windshield is working like a magnifying glass on sunny...

Similar to the Rotrex setup. If you increase the idle 200rpms, it makes a huge difference. Mine runs at 850rpms instead of the stock 650.

Between the weight savings and the sound, you can't go wrong. It will be a bit louder than the Gemini, but not unbearable on stock or high flow cats. Once you run test pipes or long tube headers is...

550 wheel horsepower, not 550ft-lbs torque lol. I'm using the Aquamist Methanol kit as a safety net more than anything. The Aquamist kit has been pretty good so far. I'm running a boost controller so...

440-450 is a good amount of torque. I'm hoping to hit around 550-575whp with the direct port methanol kit. With E85 the ethanol can range too much from a pump, unless you're getting it from a can /...

It's supply and demand. It's not as popular as the Motordyne or Fast Intentions, so they probably can't justify the cost they would charge someone and the amount of work that goes into manufacturing...

PPE headers matched with the Tomei exhaust has been one of the loudest setups I have ever heard. If you want to tame it a little or even deepen the sound then your best bet would probably be the ART...

It's extra insurance for your motor. It puts less stress on the crank, rods, pistons along with the oil pump as well. I will be running one on my setup. If you don't run one then just don't up the...

Only issue I have with them making an in house cog pulley is that if anything with the company goes south and you need replacement parts, you could very well be SOL. Very much similar to the GTM...

This is the setup I currently have. Both black catch cans are on the inside of the intake piping. I wanted something small, but functional.

Sorry to go off topic!

They're not technically required, but they're a good idea for your investment. They help with blow-by by keeping most of the oil out of your intake side by catching the oil vapors from your crankcase...
