I spoke with STS about this as i just ran into the same "What's this green wire" question yesterday during my install.

Keep the Z and buy a daily driver. If you're like me....you'll never get back the pile of cash you have in your Z anyway

That's to bad dude....what soured you on the Z?
With this Economy, it is really hard continue this kind of hobby. We all know FI regardless of what kit you use is really throwing away your $$$. I have seen people who went FI and part out and sold the car within 3 months. 350Z is really not economical for others since it is just a 2 seater and sometimes people cut down on the # of vehicle they own and just stick to one.
Daniel, first I don't have the Cash right now..lol but AVCR can be bought for around $475 new. I would love to take this off your hand but I'm out of $$.

Good...that was my hope. The kit still gets alot of flack and it's nice to have other STS users to bounce idea's off of

^^^ yup that was the intent of the thread... I'm sure I'll still be active too. I think long term reliability is going to be where this kit really shines when we start getting some seriously high mkileage guys running this kit...
