It is now time that I start. I can't wait any longer. I am starting small and will branch to larger junks when the time and money are available. I am starting with the JWT Popcharger, Z-Tube, 7-wire grounding and a spoiler (either Impul or Gialla Corsa, I haven't decided yet, I am leaning towards the Impul, but I have seen that there is a knock off which is much cheaper, so I have to check that out). I hope that I will be able to get all of this done in time for the March 20th meet. It shouldn't be a problem as long as I don't have to do much more traveling for work. I would like to go ahead and get an exhaust and headers and all of that other fun stuff, but I just don't have the time or funds right now for it. I can do the jwt popcharger, z-tube and 7-wire kit myself for about $300 it looks like. Should be money well spent.
Well, there it is. The time has come. Who knows when I will stop. Maybe with a super charger in a couple years.
The mods begin.
Well, I just made my order for the Popcharger, Z-tube and grounding kit. I should have my parts sometime next week and start installing next weekend hopefully. Woo-Hoo. I'm ready.
I just want to thank Joe for all his help. He is a stand up person to work with. I highly recomend giving him a call if you need anything and deffinetly check out the website (http://www.everythingnissan.com), it is very nice.
I'll keep you all updated.

Yeah, I know. I'm just adding a few bolt ons. Headers would be nice, but I'm just going to start out slow and easy and then work my way up to headers and exhaust. Plus, I don't really have the necessary resources for headers right now.
The Z-tube replaces the factory tube between the Throttle Body and maf sensor. The stock tube has sound baffles and other features that the Z-tube does not have. The Z-tube will also increase induction noise under WOT.

I haven't done anything yet. I am taking it to a detailer to see if they think they can do something with it, and if not then I am going to go to a body shop and see what they can do. While I am at it, I am going to see if they can take care of the rock chips that I have on the hood.

Well, let me see how things go this spring. I have to make sure that I have the cash too. I have quite a bit of lumber to build the deck on my house and then I have to buy all the landscaping materials. So, my funds are limited. But, if I have enough money left over, it's going into the car in the form of headers and/or exhaust. I'll be giving you a call Wes, when the time comes.elwesso wrote:Bah! You have me!!
Ryan,I am sure that Wes, Andy and I can help you install the header safely and correct. You can always crash our Subaru Install Days and have access to any tool you could ever need at Dale's house. I would put money on this, that installing a header on a G35 is easier than installing an up-pipe in a WRX. Dont let fear from the install keep you from doing this mod. We and the Subaru club are here for you.

When he referred to "resources," I assumed he mean't funds, money, etc.... What did you think AZ?

I'll keep that in mind when the money comes rolling in. I have to be able to afford the exhaust and headers first.
