A post for those who don't know what stickies are:

The KA24 t-body mod is the oldest in the book. Everyone knows about it. EVERYONE. You need to port out the intake manifold to get it to work completely, cuz in the end you can only fit so much air in the stock openning no matter how big your TB is. Please take time out to read the stickies (the TB mod is in there!)

P.S.
dwayne = Drjmaxx88
sarin = maximase86
carson = cardana24
that's all i can remember right now.

Consider yourself schooled.

And here is a few more:

wylie = wylie-c
max88q = Qijuan
turboast4 = the guy that thinks I'm a robot
blackmaxima88 = Dan

Crap...I forget the rest. :P Why is it that when you try to remember names....you can't remember names.

Here is a cool mod for everyone should try. There is the thing when you press the accelerator...the car goes very very fast....and when you let off the gas....there is this noise that sound like this: PPPPPSSSSHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!

I saw the thread where you were talking about the belt... hopefully
it just broke from tension after you shut the car off.

Did you keep the 300Z ECU in the car or go back to the original ECU?

Good luck!

I ran the Z ECU for a bit...then my CHTS started acting up. After clearing the codes a few times with the stock ECU, it started working fine again.

how many of you all have actually done the T/B mod, with a port matched intake neck? I am going to do this soon and was wondering if you there was any noticiable difference? I know when I added a larger T/B to my fourth gen the throttle response became very touchy.

I'm planning on doing it soon...considering my broken timing belt...I might be pulling stuff apart. Depending on how bad things are, I might be doing a VG30ET as well. Can anyone say 14psi and 275whp?

well unlike i did remember to re attach everything before running the engine such as the idle controol or when you let off the gas the car will die because it dosent kno what idle is and remember to reattach the tb sensor also as for sound goes its much louder and if im not mistaken i feel more torque also deffinately something eveyone should try.

I did the mod about 5 years ago lol old. Anyone that drove my car before and after noticed a big difference in throttle response. Hit the gas and the car would jump off the line, I had to relearn how to take off smoothly.
