  1. Sorry about the Aston experience... thats mental stories you are telling here! Good luck with the future cage! A.
  2. Was actually looking for a BNR33 a while back, I'll look for you tonight if you want for a 34 450-500 is pretty crazy Looking forward to see this! Best of luck finding a good example! A
  3. Back to the VIN code of the type of car you are looking for DO the on PM Ian from reading your experience test driving one I'm not sure what you fell in love with and why you are thinking about getting one, are you going to make it a mad beast?
  4. Not sure it's easy to get a reputation smashed on a forum though... I for one don't know what to think...
  5. Did you watch the looooong intro video? Had to turn it off That stuff is looking to replace all other communication! love progress...
  6. My price is demented or the price of R34s are? VIN for what exactly? I'm sure 99% of your posts are when you post after being in the pop You only have to look at the prices that R34s are going for both here & in Japan to see they are not exactly "cheap" VIN code for the type of R34 you are looking for? Price for R34 are demented I'd say 100% after pub.
  7. check it out! https://wave.google.com/wave/ Im amazed, this is cool! just need my tuner and other traders to hazzle now
  8. Cant believe you're giving up the Z for a skyline. R34.. do you have a VIN number? I think the £ fetcing price tag you are talking about is demented! Can have a look for you, taken in 3 cars and one bike from JPY so far and have a pretty good auction manager looking 'after' me. I want one of these: #################################### Speak to alex and get him to build you an engine...when i was there he had just built a vq capable of 900bhp ########################
  9. Consolewerks <<< I ordered it from, think they haven't shipped it yet but you never know. If I dont hear anything tomorrow I think I'll cancel the order and order from one of the other links here (cheaper anyway)
  10. hope that mine will be here soon ... was told it was 'shipped' two days ago... still no tracking number ...
  11. What you have to remember is that those engines are already very very strong. So adding more power is just a case of getting more air in and out (intake and exhuast) and turning up the boost. On an N/A car, like the Zed, they are already very well tuned to get the most power from it (pretty much). Increasing airflow doesnt make any big difference as the Zed has targets in its ECU for torque at a given rev/load and will tweak the mapping to get it to that number. By mapping it they can change that target and fiddle a bit, but you wont overcome the fact that the engine is already very heavily tuned for the state its in already. Well those engines are built with boost in mind, 400hp seem to be the figure that the Z can run without touching the internals (whp?) so you dont' need to go touching the internals if you dont want to run crazy hp figures (like I do ) The manufactors build an engine to last for X ammount of miles so when you overboost an EVO or GTI etc you will kill of that life span, I'm not sure which of them are the 'safest' to boost up but when you look at HP per €/$/£ you always 'win' with a turbo... A. Personally I couldnt compare the GTI or EVO to the Z different class all together just by looks!
  12. Got quoted 8-10k € inc work and parts... will go down that route next year I think if nothing better comes along
  13. Very hard Q to answer I think some of the tunes would be going hand in hand... say you only do a plenum spacer and gain 9hp if you then add pop charger and gain 4hp on top of that you might see that if you take of the plenum spacer you'd only gain 3hp etc. Not sure that was a good explenation but there you go My own experience in the area have seen a lot of effort and time for very little hp/torq increase my car was using haltech ecu and tuned with e5 (higher octane) so it was running like MENTAL, when I was able to get proper fuel that is... most of the time it was knocking and throwing up engine lights. I've now got a retune with RON95 and the car is producing a very low margin higher then before (torq higher though) but the car FEELS very different more driveable and more pull in the gears. After the E5 tune I added on two race cats, custom exhaust system and kinetix ssv plenum not sure what they would give individually according to their traders but the custom exhaust deffo made the engine breath easier and so did the kinetix plenum and the race cats. < I think for an NA tune they all might be overkill but since I'm going FI (on the roadmap anyway) It will all play an important part later. (SSV according to their site gives 30+hp (!) and the cats might give another 10 and possible 5-10 on the rest of the exhaust) Btw, not saying that any of this is the law... more a what I feel / think in the matter. Please feel free to correct me and add your own input. REALLY want to go down the E85 route.... A.
