its now a Stage 4.


300zx's go by a MOD list

Stage 1 Intake
Stage 2 Exhaust
Stage 3 ECU upgrade
Stage 4 Crank pulley
Stage 5 Intercooler upgrade
Stage 6 Injector and more boost upgrade
Stage 7 Turbo upgrade
Stage 8 can be a HOLE LIST OF THINGS...


Really anything after stage 3 its you oppion of what your Z is.

Mine is a TRUE Stage 4 now because i went back to stock intercoolers and sold my Apollo 23x11x3.5 FMIC <----- VERY Shitty for the z.

Oh, haha I see. I thought stage 5 would've been like a shitload of upgrades and I was gonna ask you why you only ran a 12.70, but now I see.

Good times then man

I thought bogging meant you gripped? Because I would imagine a street tire would spin if it was shitty. Am I wrong in my thinking? Was the event fun?

Why are your stock SMIC's better? Is that FMIC a poor quality peice? Not enough air to the radiator?

long story but its like this


if you do a fmic on my car MOST FMIC's for my car go like this

1 side turbo feeds air to the opposite intake manifold
as does the other and you have massive pressure drop.

thats why we came with 2 intercooler from factory.

plus most fin designs for a fmic go left to right. are airflow from are cars need a intercooler with a designed fins going up in down.


i know this sounds very weird and hard to under stand but ill try to show u


this is the ONLY FMIC that works RIGHT on the Z besides HKS . Now look how the fins go up and down and from this pic you cant see how the end tanks are balanced for PROPER airflow to both intakes.




now here is my SHITTY Apollo fmic when i installed it on my car.



See the diff??
