Nope, reread some of my post. If your not a NICO sponsor/advertiser/vendor, I will not tolerate it. I guess the big red 'Advertise on NICO' is not effective enough. Incorrect, I am not a mod or owner.

I have read some of your other comments and replies and you defintiely are an *******!!!!! And honestly,it is not up to you to enforce Nico policy! It is up to the mods who I have been talking with via PM. So maybe you should shut your trap and let them decide what they want to do and if they want another paying sponser! Then you can flame away! Make sense?????I mean why would you want to take away form the board you so dealry love and post on like there is no tomorrow. Is that really fair to them?

You need to reread what you typed and who you are. The mods are aware of what I am doing, I have already told them in the past and they know my situation. I would rather not see you on here with your past history with other forums.

My past history????Are you kidding? We have a stellar reputation! So please post some links of our past history for everyone to see!!!! Please, Please, Please!!!!!!!! I think you have me confused with someone else! I would post some links to various magazine articles in Popular Science,Turbo,C16,Dsport,etc........but since I am not a sponser I wont. You dont just get into those mags over and over if you are a fly by night company.You dont stay in business for 15 years if you are ripping people off or treating people unfairly or selling a bad product!!!!

The 350Z intake manifold has made huge gains on peoples cars.There are at least three people we know of who are also running this intake manifold on 1000+WHP Z''s and G's. There is a dyno at an independant shop showing 40WHP gain on a turbo car.The problem with it is it costs alot.Especially the one with twin throttlebodies.I think you need to get your facts straght. REALLY!!!!!!!!! and also look closely at the dyno for the Altima intake manifold.There is only a peak of 6 horsepower which is nothing special.It is the other spots in the rpm range where it makes significant more power then the stock plenum.So we are not making outrageous claims man.You need to re-read what I post a few more time so it can sink into your thick skull. Oh and please have some of the guys we treated unfairly post here in this thread to back up what you are claiming.And make sure they state their real names so I can verify that they are indeed a customer of ours because it is too easy to get some of your random friends to go on a thread with their names hidden talking crap and making things up.I have nothing to hide. Otherwise I would not be bold enough to have you do this....would I?

No problem.And after I explain what is going on,you can apoligize!!!!!!!!! Ricky came in for a CVT to manual swap.He came in when their were very few wrecked Altima coupes with six speeds in the country.Now there are quite a bit more. But anyways...We started to source the parts we needed and we ended up having to order just about everything new from Nissan.And it was a steep learnign curve as we have done auto to manual swaps before on 350s and G'2 but this Coupe with its CVT was a real pain in the a**.There were over 100 different parts between the CVT and the six speed!!!!!! And we would order soemthing and it would come in and then we figured out we would need something else and so forth and so on! Then our local Nissan delaer just lagged on some things.And we also had to rework the turbo system to work with the six speed as it required some changes to it.Then we also had to build him a new exhaust system.And then we had to work around problems he created with his XM radio install,etc......so it has been a pain in the a** and unfortunaly what could have taken a few weeks if we could have bought a complete clip has taken a year since we had to order this part and that part and got sent wrong parts and then needed this clip and that bolt and this and that!!!!!So there it is. But in no way did we treat Ricky unfairly and at this point we have lost money on this swap.But its cool cause he is a good customer and has been very patient.Excuse my typos as I was just typing away like their was no tomorrow.

Ok next........C'mon bring it man!

Ha ha..... you had to go back over five years ago to a posting on a potential manifold we were going to be offering but never did????? Sounds desperate.That manifold was scrapped in favor of our new one.

All of our kits have a lead time of four weeks!!!I tell the customer that when ordering.Ask any of them! And i am assuming this was Anthony with a six speed.But I dont know for sure becasue there is no dldjros69 in our quickbooks! Like I said post the person real name so i can verify them as being one of our customers! But is this was Anthony.......We didnt know it was for a six speed.Once he got it the wastegate had an issue fitting with the linkage on six speed and the intercooler pipe needed to be modified so we paid his shop to mod the car for him.We used our money to pay them to take care of him!!!! and then we recently got a six speed in here and re-did our jigs to work with the six speed!!!Stuff happens dude but it doenst mean we treat anyone badly.And in this case we went out of our way to make it right for the customer and basically gave back all of our profits to get him on the road and turboed!!!

You seem to post only the negative how about this thread which shows the highest horsepower daily driver in the country with our twin turbo system!

http://my350z.com/forum/forced-inductio ... -list.html

I wont post anymore though.Cause I could clog up this thread with a crapload of links to all sorts of different boards from just about every make ad model you can think of.My point,is you are not posting anythng that we have done that is ripping someone off or treating them unfairly or even making false claims.So bring it man.I am waiting here!

Actually your done cause you brought up a bunch of BS that doesnt support what you are saying! I replied ot everyhting with an explanation.I am not saying we are perfect.But we dont mistreat our customers,we dont mislead them and we dont leave them hanging. And that is exactly what you were insinuating.And the thing is we dont need to do that to our customers.We build nice parts and can make any car fast.We have 8000 sq.ft of car heaven with lifts,a dyno,a full machine shop and cars like 350Z,GTR,G35,Supra,NSX,BMW,Porsche,Evo,etc.... here right now.Why are we gonna ruin our business by lying and mistreating people???????

ASK LOOP???????LOL Seriously,it will not be needed for a boosted CVT. Our turbo system can easily overwhelm the CVT if you throw more then 5 psi at it. And you can easily run up to about 10 psi safely on the VQ35.But with the CVT transmission,that is not possible so the transmission is the limiting factor. A six speed is a different story.

SFR Here is what we need for the 2.5L:

1. After Market Clutch.
2. Intake manifold for turbo applications.
3. Cold air intake for N/A applications. (There is plenty of room).
4. Partnership with UpRev for the turbo kit (No more SAFC Garbage).
5. Pre-made down pipe, 5 bolt and 3 bolt style flanges.

Defense mechnasim at its best. All you have answered is my irrelevant questions and I really do thank you for editting them multiple times as it will explain many peoples answer including the owners and myself. But you are managing to avoid my main questions.

Another question, the picture you posted, is that the same intake manifold that is used on the 07+ Altima?

+1 x infinity for the aftermarket clutch

UpRev addon should be cheaper than the typical $700 price if 2 companies are coming together for this.

premade downpipe into flexpipe ftw as well.

Loop/SFR...Please, Let's try to tone it down a bit. The last thing we need is a pissing contest. Both of you have contributed greatly to the NICO forum. Tim, I have seen your work personally on Danny Rosario's Coupe. I haven't yet gotten a dire in it as the only time I saw it was during the Carlisle event in May and he had just picked it up. But he did post up some dyno numbers that were very impressive for a 2.5. Loop, We all know what you've contributed. It it weren't for you, I wouldn't be sporting my one and only Fast Intentions exhaust :naughty:

Bottom Line here guys is that this thread is borderline advertising which is prohibited. Although Tim, you weren't blatantly advertising it, but posting a picture of the product and telling the forum members that it is available is kinda like advertising. Tim, my suggestion to you would be to contact Greg in regards to becoming a sponsored vendor. As soon as that happens you and I can talk about a group buy :yesnod

On a side note, I spoke with Kinetix a few months back to see if they will be coming out with an intake manifold for the 07+ altima 3.5 and basically the R&D engineer I spoke to said that Nissan had a design flaw with their 02-06 intake plenum design which led them to design an intake for those specific years. In 07, they did R&D on the 07 and found that Nissan Engineers corrected this problem. The air was more free flowing and unobstructed as opposed to the previous design. Kinetix concluded that it wouldn't be worth to design and produce an intake as the OEM would be just as efficient as the one they would produce. So with that said, I'm curious to see what numbers this will produce on the dyno vs. an OEM intake plenum :popcorn:

kinetix wont be designing a intake manifold for the altima. Reasons: dont see the altima crowd paying 1k for a intake manifold second supply and demand. They are currently working on manifolds for the 370z. Seems like less companies are going into the altima aftermarket.

in all truth loop

I wish more companies will put more R&D into the altima community. Theres so much you can do to the altima. This is why I went with the 370z so many options to much more power and fun to drive. I wanted to boost the 3.5 and realized that if I did it a stock z would kill it. No questions asked. But more power to companies trying to support the altima community. :wavey:
