Ill find you the website.

 

if u dont mind me asking... how old are u?

 

Damn, if my dad bought me a Z, I wouldn't complain.
Just messing with you.

Don't be mad, I would reset the comp though.

When I race, I don't like racing autos. I would rather race another manual. Let autos race autos, lol. To me it takes more skill with a manual. With an auto you stomp on the gas and hope for the best.

Hahaha... I pay the payments and my Dad pays the insurance... So personaly i think it is a great idea lol... And about the stomping on the gas... I hate it... i feel like a ***** lol... No offence to the Auto's out there... i feel ur pain

 

Thanks Glen... im 18... we are in the same boat... thanks for the info also

Ill run my auto z against any manual z. If you know how to use the sport shift perfectly it would be close.

So did you reset the ecu?




Glen

 

Your welcome hope it makes a differnce for ya.

Glen

 

****, at 18 I bet the insurance is as much as the car payment.

 

Get this in my state it cost more for insurance on a 2002 maxima then my 2003 z.

 

Proud to be a TEXAN

 

HAHAHA ur right chaparro78 but eh... BTW are u going to the Houston meet this week-end?

 

Didn't know there was one, send me the info

 

I tell u what... Me and this other guy from this forum are meeting up off of I-20 on Great Southwest at 7 am and then headed out there... The meet starts at 11 so that should be plenty time to be out there... There is going to be alot of stuff that we are going to do down there and alot of Z's... Go to the Texas thread and read all about it... Or PM me and ill get u my cell # and maybe you could meet us and we could all go down there together. - Chris

 

suck it up and face the reality that manual is faster

 

Bring it on!

 

WOW ur lucky and should be gratefull ur dad bought u this car no matter if its an auto.

 

"We were on the Highway from a 30 punch, i had it in auto-manual. I kinda hit the rev. limiter both times going into sec. but i had him by half a car the 1st race, and the sec. we were side by side, at the most i had a bumper on him."

I thought you said you lost .... wtf mate

 

1. Your mods are only good for about 6-7hp total which is completely insignificant at this overall power level. The individual variation between stock motors is more than that.

2. You have an automatic

People have unrealistic expectations from NA mods. you need to get a 25-30hp gain before you will be able to see any meaningful difference in performance. The "heart" of a good NA set-up is really in the cams. Everything else is just icing on the cake. When doing NA mods, ANY weak link will degrade the entire system, and since you are talking about modest gains at best to begin with, any deficient copmponent will drastically hurt performance. This will happen with FI also, but there is so much more overall power, that performance isn't affected nearly as much. If you change ALL the plumbing alone, expect 15hp or so. Reflash the ECU and you will get another 10hp. Add cams/flywheel and you will be good for about a 40hp total gain. That's the best you can do with the stock block and stock compression ratio.
