I'm post poning my RRP install for a while to include this. Given I've seen three break in the last few months I will need one I am sure.

Elmo370z 06-16-2016 01:54 PM

Same here

phunk 06-19-2016 02:42 PM

Material is on the way so I will be doing a big batch of these as early as this week, depending on when it arrives.

khern11 06-21-2016 04:36 PM

Im in.

EliteXpress 06-22-2016 12:27 PM

I already have a nice order going with you, count me in on this too! :tiphat:

Elmo370z 06-22-2016 07:04 PM

material hurry up

phunk 06-22-2016 08:47 PM

I bet it shows up this week still.

khern11 06-27-2016 07:22 PM

Any updates?

phunk 06-27-2016 08:07 PM

Made 28 of them yesterday.

Have to put together hardware kits for these though... theres a bit more than just the billet plate itself needed to get this all together and complete.

That should be enough time I think. We are just waiting around for some suppliers to get us installation hardware pieces. The first batch will go out for anodizing sometime next week.

the top plates should be back from anodizing this week.

the custom fittings are in production and I hope to have them in towards the end of the week. Once they come in I could begin shipping for gasoline use. But for E85 cars we need to get the fittings anodized also.

These fittings are what will make the product PnP with stock fuel systems and hose.

now its just a matter of the fittings....

zguynate 07-19-2016 04:48 PM

I can't wait! Fuel stuff is the only big thing I need to start throwing most of my car back together.

I think I can start building your upgrade now. I dont think you are going to need the custom fittings for your setup. Its more for interfacing with the factory fuel feed pipe/hose for stock fuel systems or cars with our new S1.E and S1.SE kits that use the stock feed as the return line.

Im gonna take out my page with notes on your project and see what I can do now that I have these back.

Awesome! The Bank of Wife is ready to send money lol. It's bittersweet for her because I'm spending more money, but she knows this is pretty much the last large chunk of money to spend. I have a few other nickel and dime stuff, but this will be the last majority.

derraj06 07-20-2016 12:05 PM

Awesome! My top hat cracked fully on the weak side so I'm driving the car very slowly until I can get one of these. Praying it stays together long enough for this to come in.

ban25 08-01-2016 11:00 PM

I may have snapped mine...will have to get the tank open to see. My symptom (can't start), is certainly consistent with a pump issue.

phunk 08-01-2016 11:22 PM

The fittings for the hardware kit to install my billet top are supposed to ship to me on Friday! I know some of you guys are anxious for them, sorry it's taking so long. I got my in-house part machined pretty quick, but the fittings have taken awhile. If shipped when I am told, I will be able to start shipping the billet hat upgrades next week Tuesday.

Elmo370z 08-02-2016 12:08 AM

pre-order list?

derraj06 08-02-2016 09:40 AM

My top hat has now snapped, so just tell me when to send the money. It's hanging on by hoses in the tank currently.

phunk 08-02-2016 06:03 PM

Final pricing is worked out on the top hat. I also have the stock-type install kit worked out (valid for stock fuel systems, or stock with CJM RRP standard kit).

There is a chance I might be able to get it up on the website tonight for people to to just pre-order them. I have to work on this car a bit longer. Otherwise tomorrow.

Install kits for return fuel system cars is in progress. I might not finish them until the custom fittings are here so I can fully build one in real life to make sure its all set.

Elmo370z 08-03-2016 10:21 PM

Just take all my money

phunk 08-03-2016 10:48 PM

The custom fittings shipped today! I was just sent pictures of them. Now I am excited!

phunk 08-08-2016 02:32 PM

Its all here! I can do complete kits now!

I will make a thread soon, hopefully tonight.

Elmo370z 08-08-2016 03:28 PM

I think my credit card might decline for that price lol

phunk 08-08-2016 08:25 PM

Price is normalized now.

I gotta run, will have to work on that page more tomorrow. But its up.

Coupon code for you guys: the370ztophat

Code is valid until 8/16

Installation is pretty easy, I actually am thinking I might try and do this one as a youtube video. It will be at least this weekend before I have installation details up. Although I will gladly answer any questions.

Hehe, sorry phunk just wanted to make sure I got one. Thank you much for the partial refund, I would have gladly paid the sticker price just to get one here. Really looking forward to installing this and getting my Z back healthy after it died on me.
