I'm not sure...maybe they got it a year later than we did? I really don't know as the confirmation was that it will work on 2003 and pre 2004.5's but not 04.5+ 350Z's yet.

They themselves got an '05 350Z (287HP engine) and a 2005 Infiniti G35 Coupe with the 300HP motor to do testing to confirm it will work.

Hi Guys, Just a small post to let you know that APS's head tech has arrived in CA to verify both the fitment of the APS single turbo system and tuning data for the 05 model Z car.
If all goes to plan I will be able to confirm that the APS intercooled single turbo system is available for the 03, 04, and the 05 model Z car within the next 48 hours.
In addition Rob (our head tech at APS) will verify the fitment of the APS TT system on the new 05 model G35 with the factory 300 HP engine.
Testing of both products should be completed this week, the tuning data for the computer is critical to both the 05 single turbo system and the G35 TT system so with some luck we will be in a good position by week end.
I will keep you updated with any news as it comes to hand.
Thanks
Peter

This is the exact reason that APS sent it's head tech to CA, to find out that answer.
As of now all of the threads I've read say that there is no FI system that works on the 05 model Z car. APS has been informed by one of our US based APS dealers that the APS TT system does work fine on the 05 car, because of the uncertainty on the 05 model Z car APS's head tuning tech will verify the compability and the operation of the factory ECU with regard to correct interface with the APS computer this week.
I will certainly let you guys know what we find when the development work and testing is completed later on this week.
Thanks
Peter

The tuning for the single turbo system will be on the 05 model with the 287 hp engine and our head tech will also install and tune an APS twin turbo system on the new G35 with the 300 hp engine.

An 05 model APS twin turbo Z car (287 hp engine) has been verified by Brainstorm Performance, the APS intercooled Twin Turbo system was installed about 6 weeks ago and the engine runs perfectly and power was awesome after the dyno tuning work.
We at APS just want to double verify that the single and twin turbo system is compatible on the 05 model Z car (all cars produced after July 04 are considered to be 05 models) and Rob our head APS tech will also develop tuning maps for the 05 model Z car/single turbo system whilst he's in the US.
Thanks

To the best of my knowledge this 2004.5 model does not exist.
From research we have conducted all Z cars produced between approx 7th month 03 to june 04 are 2004 model Z cars.
And all Z cars produced after 7th month 04 are 05 model Z cars, does this make sense to you guys?

There's two ECU versions on the 04's.
Early models = 2004
Later models w/ the new ECU = 2004.5

1) 04 model cars (cars produced between 7th month 03 to approx 7th month 04) have one computer model.
2) 05 model cars (cars produced after 7th month 04) have a new ECU, different to the 04 model Z car, does this make sense to you guys?
