I know there has been interest in these remote mounted turbo sysytems (Andlid )here for some time but for those how have not come accross and are thinking to go FI it's a very good bolt-on system for the 350z and soon 370z. http://www.ststurbo.com/nissan_350z_

First detail in since Wales 2010 For me it's all about the performance and it would appear my zed is unloved but far from the truth so today had a day off work and gave her a wash and cheated with the ice liquid wax polish 1 hr job done happy with results.....i will it could stay like this all the time Shame about the background Wasso eat your heart out

You should be able to buy a CJM stage 0 kit to convert it to RFS easy Nurrish had this kit for his +400whp Vortech SC setup. Factory rails etc max out by 500whp See linky: http://www.cj-motorsports.com/catdes0.htm Adam will carry this no doubt

The hats and every bit you need comes with the kit . The only items to buy is racing brake fluid and pads (if you don't want the standard pads supplied with the kit. They are very good. (@ par with Ferodo DS2500 but a bit soft for my liking) Installation is DIY if you've got some spannering skills and can follow instructions. An automatic brake bleeding kit will be a good investment. So will a hydraulic jack and axe stand(x4).................... makes life easy Check this link. And before anyone askes I'm not on commission. Just recommending a good product i have used for close to 2 years now http://www.ksport.co.uk/products.asp?f=brakes

After getting an advisory from the MOT boffin i decided to put fres rotors for my BBK This set last just over 1 year including 1 Ring trip ( 22 laps) and a few other bits and bobs. I let the photos do most of the talking Worn rotor. From 32mm new to 25mm and 23mm for Left and right disc repectively. Thos Performance friction 01 race pads are too bloody good Its just chews up disc. Only down by 2mm from new Everything off doen to hub All the bolts off bar the last one @12 o'clock to unmated disc from hat Voila! Shiney new discs with bolts Close up of slots hmmm nice Cleaned the hats: Mating thenew disc to the Hat. This is the all tricky bit as you has to make sure it is centered if not you will have vibrations Usefully there are 12 bolts so it was a case of putting in 12-6'oclock and 9-3 o'clock and measure to ensure it was centered then to the rest fitting opposite ends. final torque down was to 23NM as per Ksport manual I knew this will come in handy again I wired brushed all the corosion and rust on all mating surfaces and put disc back on the Hub. Also zip-tied the SS braided brake lines as per MOT advisory Finished off with cleaning disc faces with copious amount of brake cleaner before reinstalling callipers and pads. Job done!! Later took the zed out for a brake bedding-in procedure and all went sweet as a nut As the car was on axle stands took the opportunity to change belts OEM to Gates racing V-belts. the OEM were in a bad way Sorry forgot to take pics of this and the instal but its dead easy I would advice changing your belts if they look sorry like mine were The zed definately drives better after the change Zmanalex has these now i think I did some other boring bits like lubricating vital bolts i dont want to seize since I would be undoing them soon and also dialed in some bump and rebound in the front coilovers. i had a bit of understeer i was not happy with

Welcome to the club! i tried his last year and after much interest, in the end nobody could make it Even the guys in Germany had commitments so cancelled The way i see it is, f we meet as a group then fine if not i still be there as i have done previous times. You will know who is serious when you actually get financial comitments ie booking accomodation As for booking ferries it is not easy as people live miles apart but i will be happy if someone(s) local was to tag mini-convoy style all the way. Its a same you want to leave on wednesday. Personally if i change my mind on going to the Dam i'll just do the Dover-calais/Dunkirk crossing which is short, cheaper , more crossing times and i'm used to Worcester to dover 220miles + calais to Nurburg 290 miles = 510 miles (£50-70 return) Worcester to dover 220miles + Dunkirk to Nurburg 260miles = 480miles. (£50-70 return) Worcester to Harwich 200miles + hook of holland to nurburg 220miles = 420miles + crossing time + price ~ £200 return Worcester to Hull 165miles + rotterdam to nurburg 200miles/zeebrugge to nurburg 230miles) = 365/395miles + crossing time and high ferry cost ~ £250 return). Its all about the laps man

yup 6k is best....not too blue. Also upgraded the H7 halogen high beam to 80w bulbs(OEM 55w) and matching LEDs side lights. I have seen 100w bulbs which will be something going by the 80w i have! Complement all this LED interior and rear number plate bulbs swap and removing the orange repeater bulbs for Silvertecs or similar and finish off with the rear cluster mod or buy a clear cluster set and rear 2006+ LEDs if you are feeling flush. All a doddle to swap. Got all my bulbd from auto bulbs direct

Hey Ian no such shenaningans for me man Just visiting the coofee shops for some R&R so i'll be fresh for the Ring on Friday eve You know you want to do this You don't need to drive into down town. Leave the zed at the hotel and catch public transport to and fro the district...... you sissy!
-
For those who are interested in this trip can you possibly put down your names and accommodation preferences in the other thread by mid February as we are negotiating discounts in hotels in or around Nurburg. Therefore more exact numbers will help. For those unsure still indicate your preferences as it helps. early indications suggest it will not be busy that time of the month so we have upper hand and late comers will be easily accommodated. Ian, I think adding proposed length of stay is helpful as some may different plans. I for one aims to spend 3nights only. Friday, sat, sun. As I will only be off work on Thursday ferry to Holland and spend night in Amsterdam and drive down to Nurburg Friday to catch evening session and leave Monday morning for blighty

japspeed y pipe rant ! anyone have the same issues
GT4 Zed replied to quick wheels's topic in 350Z Technical
Japspeed have been hit and miss and u have been lucky I guess! Got y-pipi, k1 and short shifter all over 1.5yrs and all working and had no fitting issues mind though you I had to bend an exhaust hanger to correct a slight tail pipe height disparity in relation to the bumper. I would'nt trust them with headers etc though because if it cracked it will be a costly PITA to change that you may have got a quality one in the first place -

How come I mostly see zeds when drive my other car Passed kuro 03 plate between J3-2 M5 northbound @ 08:45 ish Saw sunset coupe approaching M5 J6 from Worcester around 11:30 ish On another note I've been seeing a blade silver coupe around Worcester lately. A couple of dats ago leaving Worcester around J6 M5 and leaving the hospital around 17:10 stuck in rush hour traffic! Could be even to different cars but have a feeling it's not anyone here?
-
The turbo kit will complement the car very well. Hope you have deep pockets or plan to do most of the spannering yourself to keep cost down For tunning you should have a word with Mark @ Abbey motorsports
-
I don't blame you! Kuro is beautiful and faster
