No, not at all. The APS TT kit is a great kit comparatively. In all of our findings, and kits we have tried, the JWT TT kit is the CLEAR winner (so far). I am interested in finding out and trying this TS/HKS creation. Hay Top Secret, I can get you guys one of our Z's or G's to test fit one for real, no rush either, seriously.

I think the same way, you would, and will say the same thing about the JWT kit when you see or install one. (even Nissan Corp. themselves said "If these cars would have come TT'ed from the factory, they would be just like this") I think that says alot.

While JWT looks promising, fitment, reliability, performance and I don't know what else cuz the JWT is yet to surface like all the others. It is far from APS. Like G352nv said its near oem. There is some issues, but to bolt on almost 500whp that is a small price to pay.

JWT seems to be believing in this pipe dream about getting carb cert. While its nice, time is ticking and people aren't worried about it too much. I do hope they achieve this because it may make others seeking Carb cert a lil more optimistic and help them achieve it as well.

So, when they do get carb cert who will buy it? sure there will be a lot but I think APS has the market.

G352nv, I can't wait to see your ride. Damn that think is going to be off the rack.

You've tried all the kits........OK. You wonder why you get flamed. You wouldn't have to defend yourselves if you didn't make brash statements like "the JWT kit is the best". You've installed every kit and tried all of them? I'm glad their are going to be other options like this TS. Does anyone know if they are going for CARB approval.

I agree, and YES we have tried allmost, if not all TT kits available that I know of. (Greddy, APS, SFR, JWT,etc.) This is what my opinion and most everyone elses who have tried alot of these TT VQ35 kits. This is not brash, it is our findings.

You expect us to believe that Jim Wolf gave YOUR shop a prototype of his kit?

So if you guys have all these JWT TT kits...why has NO ONE posted ANTHING about them?? I see a couple of pics of some charge piping the resembles what the "famed" JWT kit contains, but I don't see anything else.

I don't see customers posting on here about their JWT kits, I don't see dyno numbers or track numbers...I see NOTHING. I've searched YOUR posts and founds just about zero info regarding the 10+ JWT turbo kits that you guys have besides your last few posts in this thread.

Where have I been?? No one has posted anything about them...so as far as I'm concerned..they really aren't out there in any significant numbers.

UPDATE:

OMFG...I just read about VRT's "Project_Z".

What a load of marketing BS CR@P. The picure show a roadster with a stillen S/Cer clearing hood and the intercooler hiding behind the mesh grille looks much more like the Stillen Air/water unit than the JWT intercoolers that I've seen pictures of.

The press release date of this is Jan 2005 (well before the JWT kit release...has it even been released??) and it claims to have a built motor with 596hp (doesn't specify crank or wheel and doesn't supply and dyno chart to back it up) and claims to run 11.2@137mph in the 1/4!!! No Z with 596hp...wheel OR crank will trap anywhere remotely NEAR 137mph. I want to see some timeslips and video of this car going down the track to the tune of 11.2@137.

VRT...you guys are a cocky bunch of BSers....

You guys have pictures of body kitted out 350Zs and G35 coupes with some sort of FI on all of them and claim to be "supercar" competition. You have a few dyno number slightly over 500whp with built motors which has been done by MULTIPLE individuals on this forum on STOCK motors.

Did you guys get the memo?? Built motor Z's are over the 600whp threshold now..and climbing every day.
