dkill, if everyone thought that way, their Q would be bone stock.

I think Nissan has spent Millions more than aall other companies, combined, in development of the Q. I still think it can be improved upon.

I don't want to take JWT's word for it. I don't want to take BRM's word for it, or Level 10's word for it, or even Nissan's word for it.

I want to make my Q drive the way I want it to. If that means buying OEM parts, or JWT parts, or Stillen parts, or BRM parts, or whoever, so be it.

Just because a mod is done, to the best of that particular company's ability, doesn't mean someone else hasn't done more.

I appreciate yoru input, and advice, and rely on it, to make my decisions.

I will not blindly buy something, just because the guy selling it says it is the best. I want a little more proof, and I have time to get it. This forum is the best place to get that proof, from people like yourself, Q45tech, and all the others, that have these products, and use them, daily.

Damn people, read the posts...
I'll wait, and see the result of the installs.

I'd rather pay a little more, after the group buy, to see what the results are.

I still haven't seen a pic of the thing.

Where can I go to see what the kit looks like?

I haven't said anything is wrong with it. I just haven't seen any results, and I would like to see results.

I am not disputing anyone's time and effort, on any mod.

If someone wants to work on developing something for the Q, I though I would let them, not shut the door on their ideas.

I think you misunderstand me.

I am the guy, who didn't want to pay Stillen over $200, for a strut tower brace, so bought a $13 one, for a Maxima, and modified it to fit my car.

It is not, in any way, as developed, as the Stillen one, but fits my needs, exactly, and I saved a few $$.

Maybe the best thing to do to make a Q faster, would be a Keith Black engine swap, but I don't wat that.

Sorry, will read the thread, again. The last time I read the sticky thread, there were not pictures, or results.

YOU MODIFIED A BAR. Do you have any idea of how much works goes into developing a supercharger kit? Or an ECU, or anything BESIDES A STRUT TOWER BAR?

You cheapen the hard work B.A.D and Mr.knight have done, by insinsuating someone on this board, could develop a kit, that would be better or cheaper. It just won't be done, sorry.

You have the option

You can wait for some guy to make something for you

Or you can use proven solutions, that are as affordable as they will get.


Thanks for the compliment.

When the majority of these posts were made, the current SC kit wasnt available.

Its real and it works.No ifs ands or buts.

Alan was looking for ideas from folks what to do, I dont think he will complete with the SC set-up, but no need to denigrate him either.

I also think he is perfectly capable on doing a manual swap and/or a FSWB and such.

For now before tempers flare too much, I will lock this thread.

Fred...:)
