Default New TN owner!!!Finally!! 56k!!!!

Well finally the car is out of the shop and is running great. A big thumbs up to Sharif@Forged for all the great parts and great prices. Forged internals is the place to go for your g or z. Always willing to help out too. Also to Ballisitic Motorsports/Avalon. Scott@ballistic was very helpful and I would reccomend him to anyone. Here she is grinning ear to ear.




Gauges: Boost Fuel Pressure Oil Temp










Hidden Turbo Timer Sweet spot by the way. The shifter console pretty much pops off like cake.




Here is the PLXR for my AF had to custom fit though by removing the back. Great Unit it has the EGT and AF along wiht a power meter and knock sensor.

goes from about avg 14 teens right up to about high 18 then back to 14. We watched on obd2 reader. Gives it a pretty rough idle. Nothing on mods held off on exhaust waiting for UTEC....

Did it progressively lean out if you just let it idle? Mine used to do that before the UTEC. You dont have an A/F guage in the car?

THe plx is the af...Just used the obd2 plug forr a quick check (first ride) starts of dead even...the rich. then lean...then rich...then lean... I say about evey 1 or 2 mins it does this. Not worried about to much. Jw if there were some reflashes that didnt do this, might help with time, need to save some $$$ for utec.

Great to hear you've had everything installed. Those gauges look nice....albeit a little blurry. How about another clear shot of those? I love the Defi BF series Amber Imperials....nicest looking gauge for the 350Z/G35, IMHO. I haven been waiting for over 1 year, for Defi to release an Imperial version of this gauge.
