I remember when that video went viral.

 

I'm just sayin'... WOW 'Tuner'!!! AWESOME car!!!

 

Teaser

 

 

Huge thanks to everyone for the kudos and comments!

The latest, she is rolling. Some stuff to be done of course, but it's alive!

 

HOW TF did I miss this thread?

 

thanks LMAO I was just digging through your thread also, Bravo to YOU sir!!! You have done some sick and thoughtful mods on that thing, love it!

 

Do you live in the Bat Cave?

 

So whats next brother?

 

The Matt cave.



Dyno tune is top of the list right now

 

yo I need a suggestion on these g35 wheels I want low low profile I got a set of 245/40/18 but they don't look so low profile.

 

FPro tires you should get bigger rims

Or cheaper route is to get skinnier like 225/40 or 35 if you want really low pro

 

Man that things coming along very nicely.

 

gracias senor

 

You're really making me think about upgrading! DAMN.....Damn you 'Tuner'! I actually called on a clean G35 @ a dealer I know. It was sold, so for now I'm not as tempted.

 

Thanks Pezz! They're awesome little cars. I think steering feel is one of the most massive improvements vs. the maxima, though the improvement list is vast.


Also, look for an upcoming update May 9th. She will be tuned by the fairly well known Canadian 350Z Guru, Sasha. It currently has a decent base tune that I've plugged into it, I'm currently tuned up to about 5 PSI of boost, not sure if I'll try and go higher than that, I think I'll wait for him to tune it past that point. This thing wants to go!!!

 

That happened here in MO on the Lake of the Ozarks, a lake full of ostentatious boats, lake homes, party cove(crazy parties) and 10lb+ bass

 

A quick teaser though, Playing with my new go pro while doing some light load tuning pulls today. (yes, that IS really light load. Under 70% TPS. It's going to be a little ridiculous under full throttle when it's ready.)
Watch in full screen and in HD, despite the cheap edit program and youtube slaughtering the quality

 

NICE! FYI; From the look of the exhaust it's running way rich. 'Tuner' now that you're FI you may want to try the 'trick' of using (TCW-3) 2 stroke oil (1oz./5gal.) as a gasoline additive. I suggest going through at least 3 tankfuls before the tune. I've been using it for months w/ good results, others report improvements as well. Definitely something worth considering <IMHO>.

 

I can relate to that. Rochester is near Lake Ontario, and we live about a mile from Irondequoit Bay, which is a wide, 4 mile inlet from the great lake. I'm familiar with ostentatious boats, lake homes and party coves.

Oh cool! Look what the forum does when you paste in a Google Map link!

 

Damn Man, Very Nice Job on the Ride, will come back later to watch all the..

 

I'll be seeing Tuner again in a couple months. Sure to have some kind of opinion on his installed supercharger.

Odds are good that I'll be frightened by it.

 

Most likely, even 380whp which people will be like "hahaha thats nothing" until the ride in a car putting down 380whp on boost. My own car scared me and its probably putting down less than 320whp.

 

Yeah its just a number. I'm hoping for a flat torque curve. One thing for sure is this car wants to fly!!! And its not even tuned much yet!

 

And yes bob those Vids are Tuning pulls. Everything is super rich right now until its adjusted then you lean it back and work timing in. Rich for safety. I've wanted to try the 2 stroke thing for a while but forget about it. I'll try it on the Maxima before I put it in the G, and I'll talk to my tuner about it also

 

..

 

nice vid!

 

Got it, err on the side of caution. You'll like the TCW-3 in the Maxima, the DE-K has got some low end torque now. Well...At least enough that it'll easily spin the tires on takeoff, if I goose it. I doubt it's bad for the G either, cleaning deposits from the ring packs & etc. Is just the ticket for minimizing oil consumption/compression loss.

 

My concern is how it effects the octane rating and burning properties of the fuel. Especially when you factor boost into it on stock engine internals. Adding it could cause a problem if the car was tuned with regular run of the mill ethanol free 91.

 

First off, I'm not going to argue about this, we know each other better than that. I'll just point out what I know as true & be as concise as possible. Adding TCW-3 oil @ ~640/1 ratio WILL NOT lower octane rating or fuel characteristics significantly & cause problems. A bad tank of gas would probably do worse. The TCW-3 additives cleans carbon & gum deposits inside the engine over time. In effect slowly restoring lost engine efficiency. It's not a quick fix, taking a minimum of 2-3 tankfuls to start working. But the engine will eventually run noticeably better/smoother. So I'd doubt there's a major difference w/ boost & stock internals added in as a factor. Food for thought, TCW-3 oil removing deposits in the combustion chamber may actually benefit a FI engine more than NA. Since carbon deposits make hot spots that can cause detonation under boost. Also cleaning the ring packs to help normalize compression & leaving a lubricant film on the cylinders/valves after combustion can't be a bad thing for ANY engine. Consider the importance of that in a boost w/ stock internals situation.

 

Hmmmm that does sound hot dog damn good....where do you purchase this crap and how much do I put in

 

Sounds like witchcraft in a bottle! Im gonna try it in something.

 

Like I said before, when you sell this I got dibs lol. I say lol but i'm actually quite serious!

g35 is my favorite all around car and you've done Soo many nice and tasteful mods, congrats!

come by ertefa when she's done, sure grab lpts of attention... Not many supercharged g's or z's

 

There WAS a thread...now it seems to be gone.


It's available at auto parts stores and wal-mart, it's Marine two stroke oil. You don't care about the brand, all you want to make sure of is that is states TC-W3 compliant.

ONE OUNCE per 4-5 GALLONS of gas. 15 gallon tank=3-4 ounces of TC-W3. I put in just a hair under 4 oz whenever I fill my tank and it works great.

I measured the dB level of my engine at idle both before and after the TC-W3, and after the TC-W3 it's 9 dB quieter.

 

Why was that thread deleted??!

 

no idea

 

Thank you sir!! Very kind. And I will be there eventually. Car probably won't ever be "done" but I'll have it out once it's tuned regardless. She needs a good cut/polish and some aesthetic stuff pretty bad, but I'm having a tough time caring a lot about that right now. I just want to Ricky Bobby.
PM me your facebook shenanigans dude and I'll let you know when I'm rolling by.

THANKS dude! I'll try to grab some today and get it in the tank before the tune even happens

And awesome that you did that dB thing,



I'm looking forward to it Rochester. Should be a nice shakedown for your car as well I imagine!
Do you have any ambition to drive this thing, or are you going to play it by ear after I take you for a drive in it

FYI: It will be raised up from it's previous driving height soon. It's too low right now for race duties. Time to sacrifice some looks for some performance.

 

Oh, absolutely... if you're offering and you don't kill us first.

Although I'm sure to be more gentle with it than you are.


Agreed. I'm guessing the only way it can stay that low and perform well in your auto-x events is if you tighten the suspension so much that you can't use it as a DD.

Balance, baby.

 

Im sure your going to look like the car salesman in that Camaro commercial with that undercover race care driver guy.

 

lol. Should be fun. The only issue with the low right now is the full size 245 wide tires on the front, if I hit a bump and I"m turned to full stop the fender could bounce down onto the tire. Correct though, tighter springs could fix it. Or -1* of camber. Which I might do, because race car.
