Are you gonna help me install it now that Jason is gone ?

Thanks Jake !

BTW....I stumbled over this on the Z1 site....

" Whiteline Black Box

Like many other modern vehicles, the 2003-2006 G3350Z is equipped with an electronic stability control system; Nissan has two systems depending on what trim level your 03-06 is. The Enthusiast Z/G has Traction Control System (TCS), while the Track 350Z is equipped with Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC). Both systems achieve similar results but do so in different ways. TCS reduces engine speed (throttle cut) when the computer detects that a wheel is spinning at a disproportionate amount to the speed your Z is traveling.

VDC uses throttle cut and additionally limits the amount of wheel spin allowed by using a Brake Limited Slip Differential (LSD) based on data from a Yaw sensor. The Brake LSD system goes into action when one of the drive wheels is spinning on a slippery surface by braking the spinning wheel to redistribute power to the other, non-slipping drive wheel.

While Nissan is nice enough to give you an "off" button for both of these systems, they never are fully disabled. Whiteline's Black Box solves this problem by allowing you to electronically tune your Nissan 350Z's TCS/VDC to give control of the amount of wheel spin. The patented Black Box system is unique in allowing cockpit adjustable handling bias, a single dial delivers more oversteer or understeer on demand. Only Whiteline's Black Box lets you tune the amount of TCS/VDC intervention and even turn off stability control completely, without error codes or warning lights.



* Notes:
* The Whiteline Black Box is designed for race or off-road use and is supplied with comprehensive installation and tuning instructions.
* Some modification of wiring may be necessary and we recommend installation by a qualified installer.

* FITMENT:
* Nissan 350Z 2003-2006
* G35 2003-2007

Does the UpRev cancel this out ?

Being an alternative health consultant, I am still only 19 and live at home. Got to buy a house and I am picking up two 300zx's. One will be a motor swap, and other will be standard TT. I don't think the driveway could handle the nismo being there as well.

I bought my Z in Austin and got 31mpg on the drive back to Fort Worth. That was at 70mph.

That sucks man. I average a little over 24 mpg and I typically get about 380 miles on a tank.

sorry about that, i promise i didnt mean for those comments to come out offensively at all. i was just being sarcastic, but i sometimes forget that my sarcasm isnt always easy to interpret in a message.

if anything my last comment was more me making fun of myself for getting your profession wrong.

No problem, just been a bad week for me. Slashed tires, tire shop ruining rims. Waiting for them to be refinished, blah

This guy has LOTS of goodies for the Z. Saw his car tonight. Very nice. Get the deals everyone! He's pretty much letting you name your price.
