  1. I ve been in and out of the gyms all of my life. At 23 I was 8th in Greece in grecoroman wrestling under 85kg and now I am black belt at judo and silver at the British masters nationals under 100kg 30-34 age group. Countless hours in the gyms too. I am a great fun of creatine. At 10-15gr a day. Pure powder no sugars. Optimum whey gold was very good No xplode is very good but I can't sleep if I take it after 7in the evening. A good weights program and good diet with 2.5 times your kg weight in Gramms protein (ie 100kg x 2.5= 250 so 250gr for a 100kg man) most from egg whites fish and meat. 5 times a day complex carbohydrates to keep your insuline stable and above average. Etc etc And you ll never be as big as others that eat McDonald's and kebabs all day and inject 2ml of sust a week. Sorry guys it annoys me too. So I ve stopped bothering and started eating loads of curries loool

    exhaust

    Get a good exhaust and HFCs for the sound. As for the filters my 313 makes 320bhp with cosworth filters and 341bhp with nismo dual intakes. Plus it sounds the dogs Mine is a 08 HR with nismo intakes, with xyz ypipe, HFCs (something racing from the states) and nismo cat back. Upreved of course.
  3. I had a 2002 A4 3.0 quattro for a year. Changed it for a 2005 V50 2.4 as my dog grew massive. Both auto. The Audi was light years ahead from the Volvo in any way. Although 10 years old it looked and felt inside like new. Not a scratch, a tear on the leather or squeak! I can't wait to get rid of the Volvo for another Volvo. I was thinking of the 3.0 diesel A6 avant. The 1.9 seems rather underpowered esp the auto one. Ps the tiptronic was very good. Couldn't fault it at all but newer autos are miles ahead nowadays. Only fault in a year was the coil pack. Common fault on the 3.0l petrol. One went bust and instantly the other 5 kicked the bucket. Changed them myself at 35 quid a piece.
  4. That's the ultimate target for me. Mine is 34 so she's got a few more years to get to your wife's level. For the time being I am shadowing her on most things But I am glad she is no where near as good as me academically, knowledge or common sense/street wise. She would have left me aaaaaaages now if it was the other way round
  5. You are such a bad boy! You are a criminal. You should be done for life! No shot dead...stoned even better. And that's sarcasm for all the law abiding primadonas that are here to judge in the first instance! The thread says worth defending not mum I did it and I am sorry. It's a shame mate but I don't think you can defend it. They don't have to do all of you. You was speeding full stop. If the traffic was doing 120 you wouldn't follow them Vans can do 30 and take 2 times longer to stop than you. Old people with walking sticks are allowed to drive, autistic people that you would struggle to communicate with drive, old dears with 2 hip replacements drive etc etc. all in the name of mobility and life quality. At the same time the rest have to suffer a 70 on the motorway only because great grandad is using it with his 2 stroke rusty classic car. I see people every day driving in and out the car park and it makes me cringe as I get a full up to date medical history and I see and talk to them....no sorry help them sit on the chair myself! They whole lecturing is getting very irritating especially when we all know that it's got as much to do with road safety as the road tax with the Enviroment. With regards Another criminal
  6. Now this sounds very interesting... Perhaps the title of a dedicated thread? I always had 2 male models Hugh Heffner and Captain Nemo
  7. My zed used to be my only commuter for 3 years including the 2 bad winters. Had 2 scares once during a snowstorm (more like perfect storm) on the m62 and once driving to Scotland on the A1 which was more like lake Windermere due to very heavy rain. Other than that I drive sensibly whenever the car beeps that temperature is below 3 oC. I live in hull mind you. If it was the penines then it might have been a different story. I think our biggest concern is aquaplaning not snow/ice traction. The MPS2s are the best on standing water and damp full stop. The 050As are on par in the wet only and dry with a bit more accurate steering. I tried a few sets of each. The supersports haven't convinced me yet in the very wet. The 050As for some reason performed a bit better on snow than the MPS2s
  8. My HR zed goes up by 20bhp with a simple swap from hks panels to nismo air intakes. We were all astounded at the dyno!!!!!

  10. Arnold's autos in hull have been servicing mine since forever. They are probably zed specialists now after all the work they ve done on my car lol They are good and reasonable and if you tell them I sent you you ll get preferential treatment
  11. Mine are always nitrogen filled and on the 2nd pair of MSS front/3rd rear and 19inch rims. I find the sidewalls to be the softest ever. 36-37f 35-36 rear summer/winter. Due to the LSD at the back 1-2 psi less than the fronts is inevitable for me...too much friction.
  12. Your arches will look a bit more empty with a 235/40 as it is less than 225/45. And same for rears. That means it will need more lowering to get the arches look full and as result less road clearance. As for the tyres I ve got too and they are fab. Winter or summer.
  13. Why would you do that to your car? What's the point on putting so much rubber on the road? Get the right rims in the first place. I can understand a more common 235 at the front and 255 at the rear but still if you want wider tyres get 19inch and sizes that have been proven to work well on the zed. Your TCS will go ape sh@t if you are not careful... You have been warned Tell us what you want to achieve for us to tell you sizes and offsets and look for such rims.
  14. You need to have the brake fluid reservoir open when changing pads and keep checking it as the fluid level will increase and even overspill!! If you haven't done that and still managed to replace front/rear discs pads then you may have damaged the inner seal of the caliper piston pushing the piston back. The outer seal is dust seal and it would be cracked already unless your calipers are spanking new. Make sure fluid level is at max and lid on. Bleeding nipples all tight. Get somebody to push the brake and check the calipers for leakage. If all ok bleed your brakes....think it's nr/nf/or/of or the exact opposite. I am sure there is a guide in the forum anyway.
  15. I can't see the point in preaching the dude! What he did he did....what's going to change? The thread title was how fast is a 350z not give me grief for being a naughty boy. If that is the case make a thread as such and post all your comments there. Don't mean to sound rude guys but it's getting a bit annoying here...there is police, there are laws, there are penalties. But none of us saw him doing it and none of us is his mum. If you see something pull him over and tell him/her/me/anybody off! Words and sh@t on a forum i am finding a bit off topic. Now has anybody seen or tried more than 173? Or have they anything interesting to say?
  16. Yes a UK model can be derestricted with uprev. My standard 313 convertible would go all the way to 160 on the digital speedo and a bit over 160 on the analog. And it would stay there no matter what. I did it a few times and for a few miles each time. After fiddling with it (meaning all the mods carried out which include uprev, a full body kit and a rear spoiler) and with 320 on the fly (not the usual 340 it runs), i decided not to push any further at 173mph. The digital was insisting it was doing 160 but I felt like it was accelerating still and when I looked at the analogue I saw it well over 170! It was me and the gf in at the time and I suspect that also the rear spoiler doesn't help for top speed and we did it in Greece on the motorway between Athens and my hometown Chalkida. I am not convinced that the zed is built for top speed tho. It can easily do 160 and keep it safe and planted round motorway bends as well but it feels like it take ages to get there. I remember my 4200gt convertible with 400bhp and almost 2tonnes fat would scream all the way to 175+ without slowing down one bit but It would scare the living hell out of you if there was a tiny wind blow on the motorway
  17. Whats the condition like? I have a 3GS but the back of it is broken so need a new phone. Waiting for the 5 as I hope it has NFC. That or hopefully after the Olympics, work will have a branded S3 that I can nab I will recondition it as its got cosmetic scratches on the casing. Works fine apart from that....but i am fed up with the updates and iTunes and the slow applications like the fb app! Also I am fed up with signal issues and the short battery life! Thought I ll give the S3 a try....hoping it will be a bit better than the iPhone. O2 were giving 220 quid for it but the missus sold her iPhone 3GS 8gb on eBay for 180quid and it was very worn! Hopefully I ll get decent money hehe
  18. transfer all your contacts to outlook explorer, then android will pick it up from there Outlook express? What's outlook explorer? Is it an iTunes thing? I ve synchronized my contacts already on iTunes... I was blonde in my previous life you know
  19. I ll be receiving my s3 in blue tom. I ve got currently an iPhone 4 32gb that I will be selling.... Question is how do I transfer my contacts from the iPhone 4 to the S3? Setting new phones up is the most boring thing ever
  20. +1 Tell him Chris the dentist sent you or let me know and I ll pop round too, i only live 500yards from there. He also does nitrogen. He ll do you the best price in hull
  21. Can't see why your caster would be off. Any chance the car has been in an accident?
  22. Be super extra careful as the hr clutch is slightly different to the de as Neil said. The weak point is the concentric slave cylinder. You can fit a de engine clutch but the tolerance between the clutch and the slave cylinder will be bigger and will allow more play on the slave. I had my slave cylinder 4-5 times changed now at 45k!!! It's an expensive and rather unpleasant experience to have. The exedy clutch is fantastic and very durable and the fidanza flywheel improves engine response. Just make sure it's exactly the same with the stock around the inner hole.
  23. Last time I was there was a bit over a year ago. Between 5 and half 7 in the avo me and the gf completed 8 pairs of laps if I remember correctly with the hood down and we had to stop cos we run out of petrol and front pads plus we needed to drive back to Rotterdam the next day and needed to get back to Frankfurt. The laps included the f1 track! For some reason which was awesome...it was a detour from turn 2 or 3 I think all the way round the f1 track and then back to turn 4 or something like that. First 2 laps we admired the track and I tried to get the gf used to it The next 2 laps were fairly fast but kept getting stuck in traffic as they used cones here and there and all sorts! Only 2 laps were properly fast and around 10 mins but that's including the f1 track! I would say about 8.30 without it. Then it got a bit damp getting late avo and the supersports started to struggle on oem cambers and toes The ring is great fun midweek and guys who have been there a few times will spot the odd wrong line or missed braking point on the above video....need to go back soon
  24. On 19in rims you should have 245/35 f and 275/35 r.....on 18in 225/45 f and 245/45 r. On 18in 40 profile instead of 45 worked for me but not for everybody here for some reason... You should have used the tyre calc mate. Your ESP will go ape sh@t on those sizes
  25. Watching the thread with great interest Fab R8, I would love to have one but I could only afford it if I quit alcohol and women As for the rest I am the only one with proven credentials here Hannah. Don't look any further..... Regards Ron Jeremy
