What kind of mod's do you have on your car? Depending on the answer, you might be better off spending the money on some go fast stuff from me and the other vendors on the board first. Then just pull out your ECU and next day it to Calif or elsewhere and get it flashed after. Just a thought...

Be sure and click on my banner and compare prices on the cam's. It's pretty hard for anybody to beat my Nismo prices. I would do the ECU after the cams. Mine has pretty much the same mods but all Nismo and dynoed out at 270 RWHP, but we still had a bunch of knock retard. T/S will be re-doing my ECU as soon as I can get it out of the stereo shop. After he get's mine down he should have a pretty good base for flashing cammed cars.

I work at a nissasn dealership I am a mechanic. so I'll probablly get them through work. when you put the cams in was the change noticeable ? I have been told by my parts department that the nismo suspension and wheels are not made for the track model? i have had them call nissan and ask. and they told them that those suspension parts are for non vdc Z cars

Your Parts Manager ..... well I'll be nice..... needs to brush up on the products he sells. Have him call me and I'll explain Nismo parts to him!! YES, the S-tune, sways and Nismo rims will all work on a VDC car!! As far as the cam's go, yes there was a noticable difference, but not as noticable as when I put in the RT Cat's and let the cams breathe. Good luck with your install, and call me if you have any questions....... we'll get you the right answers.

Ya know,

If your dealer discount is anything like our's you are better off ordering from our web site. It will be cheeper for you. (we have to pay more then the cost of the suspension on our site). Plus you wont have to pay Tax.

Here is a link to our site and the suspension info and pricing.

Dude I checked and on your own site it says "non-vdc equipped" on the s-tune suspension. This is probably wht the dealer was talking about.

Here it is

It has been proven that this statement by Nissan is false. You can use the S-tune and any suspension you want with a VDC eqiupped car....I have FLT-A2's with VDC and I have no issues, and its a much stiffer more agressive set-up than the S-tune.

True........Nismo tested the parts on a non-VDC Z, thus the disclaimer. The Nismo suspension, sways, etc. work fine on VDC Z - I've had 'em for 6+ months and work perfect. Same with other aftermarket suspensions as Alberto points out.........

Hey cuban...we can do the flash for you in about 30 minutes. We're in Gaithersburg, MD to make it easy We also have an in-house dyno so you can see before and after gains or we can custom tune the flash for your mods. Give me a shout 301.330.8835 if you have any questions.
