ew: ECU update

re: calibrating and tuning

You know? I do actually still have an Alpine module that needs to be installed with the X109-WRA head-unit in my Wrangler. It's supposed to allow it to turn my light-bar on and off, control the winch...

re: tint

I just had my Nismo done with 42% tint on it. (The guy at the tint shop said to ensure it's legal tint, most people go with 50%. The factory has some amount of tint to the original window glass -...

re: pics

I actually still need to take some good photos of it. The weather around here was all rainy and lousy until just the other day. This week will be much better for that.

Yep....

I've noticed a couple of things since reading most of the automotive "test drive" reviews of the 370z.

First? Reviewers very often explain that it's just "not a car they can see themselves...

100% agree

I made the mistake of upgrading my Genesis Coupe with long-tube headers, thinking louder would be better. First couple of days driving it, I regretted it. It was so loud, you knew everyone could hear...

re: Hankook Ventus tires

I've gotta say, I've run Ventus tires on several of my previous cars, including my Genesis Coupe 3.6GT and a Cadillac CTS coupe. My Nismo Z came with a new set of them on it from the dealer too....

Not to get way off topic, but ....

As a new Nismo Z owner, I was curious what the current situation is with getting the ECUTek retune on a stock Nismo?

I mean, since it already has the optimized tune from Nissan to get the extra...

Hrmn ....

I don't really see a problem with Nissan releasing this "Heritage edition", as long as it's not priced that much higher than the base 370Z? It sounds like you may get a better clutch than the...

Another option ....

I needed a mount for my Escort 360 Max detector and Blendmount looked like it was great, but a little on the expensive side.

re: install help

Thanks! Appreciate that offer, and will keep you in mind. Since this is just a pretty basic install (all in one sub and amp box), I wouldn't even expect you to make the trip out to me just to put...

re: Bose amp

No... I think this is a secondary Bose amp that only powers the factory bass subwoofer. My interest in it is in tapping wires from the harness that goes into it so I can access +12 volt power to it,...
