minor complaints after going FI
I was wondering if anyone might have these problems, there not that big, but it kind of gets on my nerves. I understand its not a stock Z anymore. I have a greddy kit, with a HKS FCON VPRO, full exhaust.
1. My car idles for chit, it doesnt die or anything, just chatters some time's. I was told to have nissan raise the idle, is this correct??
2. My exhaust is "y" pipes single shot out, i have started to notice, black residue from the exhaust, my car runs really rich. I dont mind cleaning the bottem of the bumper everyday, I wish someone would make like a carbonfiber panel to put by it
3. If you have a full exhaust, doesnt it suck when you got the windows down at the light? The exhaust smell, well i bought some strong *** cologne for that-solved
other than that my car is now labled a "beast' i finally raced about every car i wanted to kill on my listed, and either killed or pulled
1. STI (got beat so bad, this is why i went TT) killed by 4 lengths on the highway, ide post the video, but i walk him so bad it doesnt even look like a race.
2. Pulled on a older viper
3. pulled past a ferrari modena and f355
4. any finally last night to a www.dallasimports.net meet THE new z06, giggley-giggley-giggley-oh riiiight~! Well, we took off, he actually got a little start on me on the hwy from a 50 punch, pulled on him by about a length. IM AM SATISFIED, PERFORMANCE WORK=DONE=SAVED $$$
So my experience, with the greddy kit, Jotech motorsports, HKS tuning?? Well worth every penny, im almost on a year on the greddy kit, going strong *knock on wood*. Would i again?? You bet your left nut.
Well for my My Z is FINITO, thank you JOTECH, Tony, Nick, Kenny, and of coarse the guys in the limelight justine and willie

I believe Nissan can only up the idle on 2003 models. if you have a 2004 on up you have to do it through a Technosquare reflash.
