I cant wait to see it on the track too March 5th, for the 1st annual Mossy 350Z track day. Dont worry, I will pull over on the straights so you can blow by me and my stock motor. On the other hand, if I finally get off the fence and decide which FI kit I want by then, I might just see if I can keep up with you.

I can tell you right now there will be at least 3 tt's there. Cheston's, BBBT's and ZRAYGO. My Greddy TT will be purchased on March 20th (Bonus check)...no sooner and no later......I had to do some (as chebosto would call it) pursuasive speaking to get them to hold the kit with $100 down but ..... again.....it will be mine.....oh yues...it will be!!!

haha. i guess someone brought this back from the dead.


i'll give one last update, so i can close up this 'epic'

PE japan, shafted us (us being Technosquare and me) back in November. They told us that they would have a kit available to be installed but that never materialized. in December, the PE engineers stated that there was a 'high demand' for the kit in Japan, and that they could only allocate 1 kit to the US, for every 10 kits sold in Japan. PE stated that the Kit would be available in March, so december rolls through with no real concrete data or promises... flash now to mid january.
Technosquare calls PE japan to see where they stand on my TT kit, and we're still getting the same BS, its not available.. blah blah blah.. Tadashi plans a two week trip, at the beginning Feburary to investigate. he flys there and talks with the engineers at PE, and ask him what the hold up is-- and pretty much says, i'm here to pick up the kit. Tadashi ends up with the kit in his possession (yes, we still had to pay for it) but now i have it in hand here in the USA and thats all that matters. End of the book to an ugly story. i should make a movie. and hire monkeys to play PE personnel.

TT is going in on Tuesday, Feb 17. install images, video, what not, i'll post in the FI section...

Actually, the story is just beginning when you install it. I am disappointed in PE's treatment of you and feel it cost them a lot of potiential sales here in the USA.

I think that most of this forum will have a pretty tight boycott on the PE kit due to all the hassle they had you go throug

PE needs to know the term customer satisfaction. Just by how they treated Cheston is a big no no.. esp since it was Cheston's car that the kit was prototyped on..
