Hi,

I posted a while back complaining about forge actuators... I was sold a story that APS TT actuators cannot hold high boost and forked out a shyte load of cash for forge ones, this is after specifying that I want the springs to hold the actuator closed up to about 75 kcal or 0.75 bar if u will.... so forge sent me actuators that open up at .3-.5 of a bar... thanx alot guys that really pissed me off some what... being in South Africa shipping costs and all that are a mission 4 little mistakes...

so in the end my tuner took the standard actuator that comes with the APS TT and put it in a vice and pushed the top of the actuator in causing additional load on the spring inside... this means that my standard actuators that opened at .5 of a bar now open at .75... they can hold boost well up to about 1.3 of a bar.... this little fix cost nothing and they work great...

So please guys with APS TT's that are concerned about their actuators... just push the top in on itself and preload the spring and u dont have to buy the lame *** FORGE ones that cost a fortune and release at one level and close at another... FORGE springs are long and lame *** ... they taper in and look flimsy wimsy... if only I knew that I only need to put a dent in my standard actuator.... if u need any help regarding this issue just pm me.

Kindest Regards,
DDD

 

That sucks. Glad you figured out a solution.

 

You guys have cars in South Africa????

 

what the fck kinda ignorant question is that? do you have indoor plumbing in NC?

 

you can't tell people not to buy a product that works for so many.. couple people here have Forge actuators and they hold boost fine.. did you call to find out what the problem may be?

 

Haha I thought the same thing

 

yeah, id much rather have something i had to crush in the vice to work.

 

lol

 

why no reply from Forged?

 

You mean Forged Performance? They were not mentioned. Even if the parts were bought there, I don't think they make that part - they just sell it.

 

so who is your problem with? you were talking in your thread like you were calling some one out, not just venting about the actuators.

 

im sure the cars are only for when the zebras are tired...

 

its Forge, not forged performance, it is a UK based company that has their US shop setup here in orlando.



they make parts for tons of Euro cars and have actuators that fit the APS kit just perfectly. they work perfect for a great affordable price...

 

Yo Mate!! We have some mean cars in SA... This is my 350z and as you can see we have some good 350Z's in our country.. https://my350z.com/forum/showthread....light=veilside ... Maybe not as good as the guys in the states but we getting there and are really passionate about modifying cars.. and thanks to such forums and the great people on it for making it possible.

Cheers

 

eerrr... not calling anyone out likesay... its just a bit of a biach asking for a .75 spring load and you get a .3 to .5 and paying from an inferior currency adds to the pain. and then the tuner pops in and sorts it out in 5 minutes 4 free... eeeiish africa.

u should come to south africa ... fornication is a religion, the elephants carry our shipments of weed from one suburb to the next selling door to door...

 

Capetown South Africa was listed as being the best city on the planet to live for quality of life. We have a phucked up schooling here in the US.

You guys should come to Cape Town. It's awesome... Sexy Women, Nice beaches, lots of entertainment, nice cars, etc etc etc

Maybe one of the forums top tuners should come down to fine tune my car.. I'll organise the Dyno, accommodation and chicks hehehehe

 

lots of carjacking too from what i've read

 

Whitey needs to worry about being "dinner" for the natives, too.

 

No Man!! here are the demographics in CT : Coloured people account for 48.13% of the population, followed by Black Africans at 31%, Whites at 18.75%, and Asians at 1.43%. The median age in the city is 26 years old, and for every 100 females, there are 92.4 males.
South Africa especially Cape Town is completely different than the rest of cities in Africa. People have a misconception of the demographics in SA.

Coloured here in Cape Town looks either asian or like latinos. See below some pics of coloureds in CT. This is a local modelling agency which will give you an idea of what females look like here.
