lol, sorry but I don't ahve a good answer, I'd assume that the zex would wire tot he variable output signal, on a traditional tps you have 3 wires, one is voltage one is grounda nd the third is the variable output, a multimeter will elp tell you which is which, the rpoblem is that the Z33 is drive by wire, so the variable signal might be different, as it has just a servo on the tb and no tps, I believe? that being said the pedal has a potentiometer that sends the signal to the servo on the TB, so I'd assume that the singal wire going form the pedal or the signal wire going to the TB servo would be the signal you'd want to hook to assuming it's compatible with the zex kit, and multimeter again will help you determine which wire has variable voltage

the guy i bought it from is coming friday to help with the finish up, just thought i would try and get a heads up on whats going on, maybe finish it my self. I have an idea of whats going on, and once i make more since of what evil's response was i think i could finish it. I know what your talking about evil, i just don't know what all that looks like...... i'll probably just wait until friday.Thanks.

If anyone else has some input on this, please fill us in!!!!

As far as which wire you will need, this is for a WOT switch?

Are you using a window switch as well? I would highly recommend that in addition to a WOT switch.

I am on my way to work, so I can't search right now, however if it helps, here is the FSM for your car:

The idx. file is the index, and you can find the necessary section from there. Be sure to download it to your computer. (right click, "save target as")Viewing them online never works out well.

Hope that helps.

The 0-5v TPS wire on a '04 350Z should be green in color, and can be found in the throttle body harness at pin #4 or at the stock ecu pin #40.

I e-mailed ZEX the other day about this and they finally got back to me. Explained to me that they have a wet kit for the 03-06 350z's. Wanted to know why i bought a universal dry kit (i bought it from a friend for cheap). Told me a dry set-up is not as safe as a wet setup (i already knew that) and he explained to me how it works and how easy it is to install too. Seems a lot easier and no risk on leaning the motor out with a dry set-up (w/out injectors or tune).

I'm going to post a new thread about the 350z kit to get peoples attention that may be interested in it. I know someone else was wanting a 75 shot - which i will explain that (for the ZEX kit).

Thanks you guys, for all the help. I am going to sell the dry kit and save up to buy a new wet set-up.....

Thanks-Ryan
