Sorry man, they are Nissan Japan, dealership tech jumpsuits. You're guess is as good as mine of where to buy them in the US, but expect to pay a bunch.

And the whole RHD thing, I've read a few interviews in the past where a lot of Japanese drivers prefer the LHD cars due to it being easier to shift.

I drive RHD, i find it easier to shift with my left hand because of thisit just takes time and practice but im sure it is the same after practice both ways.

we will be driving lhd car, no questions, we have driven this way our whole lives, second nature > anything else

Yeah, same is true for both, the only real advantage I see that is true for anyone is RHD gives you alot more free room for the turbo set-up. With an RB I would love to go RHD if only for that, my downpipe already rubs the steering shaft.

But then back to that, more room but re-learning which side would almost out-weigh the extra room. So yeah.

ive heard driving on the right is better, but shifting when you sit lhd and shift with right hand, thats why i love that the ultima gtr you can get in rhd with the shifter on the right side by the door, thatd be awesome to drive

also i think the shifting thing goes out the window if you ditch the h pattern shifter, i dont think id have trouble shifting a dogbox with my left hand

well unfortunatly the car won't be ready that soon, but hopefully we'll get a few good runs in this year.

iirc wasnt sofronas' 911 cup banned because of how much it owned? but they still use it on the ad

Post by **kognition** » Mon Apr 07, 2008 7:07 pm

The car was not banned. That is a false rumor. That car is sponsored by a majorwallstreet investment firm. They don't need to do time attacks, they need to do Cup racing to get the sponsor dollars.

yeah actually i know his cars from their world challenge program, i thought it interesting to see them at redline, but i dont think ive seen them besides one or two cali speedway events and maybe once at buttonwillow

Post by **kognition** » Tue Apr 08, 2008 7:56 pm

Yes they only ran once at Cali, and once at Buttonwillow.They must have had some off time to do that, because it just isn't their market.

So we are getting a new toy.....

after talking to AEM we have decided to go with their EMS for sheer versatility and power. After playing with the software I really like it, from the basics of fuel/ignition to the possibilities for sensors to data log from (we are also doing a map conversion with this since we don't even have a maf anyway). Theres also a ton of nice little things like SPEED sensitive boost control so I can try to tune the surge out in lower gears. Hell we could even do a rally setup and have a flat horsepower across the rev range.

Can you tell I'm excited?

Post by **G35Dreamer** » Wed Apr 16, 2008 7:16 pm

THATS SO COOL!!!!!!

I'm sure its going to be awesome....

Post by **sbird1** » Wed Apr 16, 2008 9:36 pm

I need more pics and more updates!!! Sounds like everything is going great!

Post by **the converted** » Wed May 07, 2008 11:03 am

AEM EMS came in today. We are still waiting on some of the sensors that should be here while we are in Carlisle.

Timing wheel to make sure everything works perfectly

Post by **USsil80** » Wed May 07, 2008 6:20 pm

y are you running the timming wheel.. did you get the universal kit.. y not just get the sr peice so you don't have to worry about the wheel...

Post by **the converted** » Wed May 07, 2008 6:41 pm

It's the 30-1601u ems and it came with that in the box. There are some issues with it picking up the stock sr timing wheel depending on which cas you have.
