How much is one of those? Is there a difference between the other brands?

 

$150 for the unit, $45 for the vehicle specific harness

I don't have experience with any other brands but this one really works which I can attest after seeing the difference in my friends IQ

 

It's been awhile since I updated this thread, been busy the last few weeks with some changes which I can finally share

Starting off with my APEXi Smart Accel Throttle Controller install...

The controller has 7 Setting Modes: (3 ECO Modes, 2 Boost Modes, Lo-Throttle Mode, and Hi-Throttle Mode).

I have spent significant time with the Eco modes and I now drive around with the most extreme Eco modes (for stop and go traffic) and the middle Eco modes for normal driving. Freeway merging or passing I drive around in the High-boost mode and it completely opens up the power of the car and removes any lag in throttle.

Here is a photo of what you get with the kit (Control Unit, toggle switch, directions, and Throttle linkage)



I removed the Fuse panel to determine what kind of installation I could work with and realized I had a good amount of space to mount the box



First thing I did was uninstall the OEM throttle and placed the APEXi cable between the two connections



As you can see there was quite a bit of extra wiring that I tucked behind the carpet to hide



I was then able to place the control box on an empty section of the panel (affixed with some double-sided tape)



I then focused my attention on how I was going to mount the controller switch, that is when I realized the fuse cover has a hole at the bottom which the cabling could run through



Then I remounted the Fuse cover and checked all my clearances



Success!



Matches the interior well



Final setup, works really well and is pretty subtle!

 

I also got this in a few days ago, expect installed pics and a review soon

 

I was able to pickup a Mugen exhaust from a local member in preparation for running the Mugen aero

I will end up selling the Tanabe since I don't want to have to modify the Mugen rear to fit the exhaust

 

Mugeeeennnnn!

 

My 350z is a rolling catalog of NISMO parts now here I go with this car and Mugen parts

 

Waiz, car is perfect. Clean dressed with class. Please what size drop did you use. I was considering an inch front & inc 1/2 rear.

 

Thanks for the compliments, here is the description of my Tanabe DF210 Springs:

 

Whats the part number for the mugen grill please?

 

You need to make sure you have a compatible front bumper, the UK spec bumper and grilles are different

The part number is the following:

71120-XTK

 

Spending $$$ like it's going out of style. Looks good bro.

 

awesome build. your wheels are

 

You are a bad influence!

Thanks, I have always been a fan of Type-F's and jumped on the opportunity to buy them!

 

Im in love... Beautiful wow... I wanna know what u do for a living because clearly ur living the dream brotha

 

For me it's more about how I save more than how much money I make. Little things like bringing my lunch to work and limiting how often I eat out can go a long way.

I purposely buy lightly used cars rather than new cars so I could instead use the difference to mod the car too which really helps

 

Well whatever ur doing keep at it because you just made me a fan of ur car.. Plus i just went on ebay and ordered a bunch of goodies just because i saw how clean and beautiful urs look.. Well done my fit brother

 

Hahahahahaha

He has a few bad influences around him.... Me being one of them.

 

Thank you for the compliment, looking forward to see what you end up doing



I'm am already a bad influence on myself and you just pushed me over the edge!

 

Thanks dude.

Been researching while waiting for replies and our front bumper is slightly different so not sure this will fit without significant modifications
