Sort that out and ill get one

Sounds like personal attacks more then the car itself. Everyone that comments no mine are good ones

Thanks for your reply mate. I think i misunderstood your initial statement above, I read it to mean that you can remap with Uprev or to unlock the true potential use UTEC, thus i was interested to know why you thought the UTEC would do more to unlock the potential than the uprev. But i think you ment that to unlock the true potential of the car's mod's you need to map it. Which i completely understand. Regarding the brakes i saw your reply, thanks . I also read about them over at the Evo forum, they seem to rate them in general. Sorry to go off topic! To OP: I would agree that that your would be better to run in the gear closest to 1:1 ratio, which i think is 4th or 5th? And a remap will help too. Dude are you still around?

Fuelsaver = Nissan Micra 1.0

Sat in its new owners garage won't he be upset missing that bracket¿:-) Is that your old car?

what type of driver are you? That and where you itend on using the Z would help answer your question. Do you commute long distances on motorway? Do you use it as a weekend tool, fast track days? etc etc etc. Would never ever touch Avon's again. Had the Avon storms on my bike and jesus you got great mileage out of it but rather be on the road then in a ditch. I find my Goodyear F1's great on track, road and rain (track they tend to get a bit to warm if you push it though so be aware). What's your budget like?

so car had a sc fitted previously?? where is it!

could have been true, wasn't. Everyone posting are within their right with their attitudes and comments, IMO. I woudn't try and get anything out of this as a turned down buyer but if people consider doing it they're entitled to do so. There is something called karma though and it does catch up with you (so consider that before taking it further) Go out enjoy the V6 instead

looking good car,wife and your dad! Enjoy the ring, not jelaous at all with the trip or the ring!

think I need some canards and a massive wing in the rear on mine now too

I'd be very interested if that could direct air to the rad and the brakes on each side. Like funnel air through to it. Maybe even try and incorporate the following downforce setup? https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-6U2J ... cs_010.jpg

wonder why the airbags didnt blow on that impact.

Again don't go mad spending... but buy cheap buy twice depending on what you need it for. I'm going to try out ebc blue rear they didn't break the bank but I'm aware I might need to spend again I'd replace lines all four corners at the same time dude.

buyer prolly getting monies together now!

forgot to add, good fluid 660 motul or the like and braided lines help too. Also some more air to the discs and calipers help too. Looking at a few options here myself.

1. how do I check if i need new discs? 2. what's the best disc / pad combo (I realise this will be contentious, I'll do some searching on this) 3. is changing this stuff something I could do myself? Is it any different to any other car? ( 1, you need to measure them mate and see if they're shot or not, if they're badly worn (uneven) you might want to swap em so you dont wear down the pads badly. 2, you need to decide how much tracking you'll be doing. for fast road use brembo discs or similar with EBC's will be good enough for a few fast shots (would not rate them for to much track use though, they're pretty abbresive on the discs too) I run a different setup now but can't comment until I get it out on track. The front pads are VERY good though (road use) 3, yeah if you're handy with tools there is no issues doing that yourelf. Also if you go for sporty pads you might want to conisder squeeling and dust... you can't have it all

rain is a pain glad to hear you didn't wreck it. Reason I'm not out cruising this evening is due to rain. No point

Hope it'll be a good ownership

this the one with the 1.8l engine? The one that you just 'chip' up to 230? Like the shape of the newer one, back to the old style merc's.

SLK Merc, that'll be in the garage more often then on the road?? Which SLK btw... 500?

The boost might be better with a haltech boost controller, might know that soon. Looking at swapping out the wastegates, think the haltech rocks tuning the car. Think I'll sort out the small bits then enjoy driving it for a year before getting into swapping stuff out don't like the boost dropping off like that, smelly springs in the wastegates...
