Abbey did an ECU upgrade on my 350Z.
Well if you gents are ever at Abby again, I expect to hear from you! You will be a mile or so from me and we’ll have to have a coffee / tea.
Interesting that you are using MC needles in the carbs. How do they run compared to other needles you have tried (i have lost track of what you have tried so far)?
I have been having issues lately with rough idling and bogging down on the top end revs. I initially thought it was needles and I have tried some DX needles and just ordered some TS needles (I'm catching up with you!!). However I subsequently found that it was this new E10 fuel that I had mistakenly put in the tank. Drained that and put some decent stuff in and it ran loads better although its running lean and a bit lumpy on idle.
The originals were SM but the guy at the Dyno suggested DX to give me more BHP at top end and it would accelerate smoother. I found they ran lean up to about 2500-300o revs then kicked in and pulled like a rocket from there. The TS needles should be a little richer all through the range according to the SU charts but match the DX needles from around 2500 revs . The MC needles seem to show an even leaner reading at idle but compare to DX at top end. It's quite frustrating trying to get the right balance.
Really hadn’t considered using it in the diff. IIRC I went with Millers GL5 for the diff. Having said that, I understand that the Porsche guys use it in their diffs.Have SWEPCo in mine and works very well. But what do we think of using it in the diff too?
Nice work. Looks like a nice day despite the cold.
You may get away with a cheap radiator but you should never cheap out on an intercooler, the cheap ones can look the same externally as a more quality brand one, but internally they can be awful and restrictive and don't flow or cool as well and I've seen it lead to both overheating and serious power restrictions. I guess a radiator that size though, is large enough that even if its not as good as I high quality it will still provide more cooling than the car will need.
Will do. Need the salt off the roads first for a decent run that gets the temps up.Ali. Keep us updated on how the gearbox operates with the swepco. I changed my oil earlier this year for a similar type but my gear changes are worse. I'm thinking of dumping that and getting the swepco which is what I should have done in the first place. Where did you get it from?
