WTF?! how is this possible?!
I really feel for the kid.
-
I got the Pioneer x3500dab as well. Works great.
Got a crappy aerial as well but can't be bothered to do anything about it.

You're rich Darren. Congratulations!

what gauges are they?

Anybody hit the "magic" 500 BHP mark..?.
I'm still awaiting my remap to 500bhp but suffered boost problem so now got to wait to book another day off work for round 2! But will be 500bhp at the fly....
Updated first page. Thanks!

Chaps, unless you've raced one side-by-side with an N/A zed, then please stop reading text books. Real life is quite different to theory.
The Z4M will kill a stock 350z and an E46 M3. Nowhere near the same speed.
-
ebay payed £15 each and yes they do work.
linky???
-
fast car. much quicker then zed and E46 m3

Well theres a huge difference between spending £1000-£4000 on a £6000 car to make it better, as opposed to spending £50k or more to buying a car. If you can afford to spend £80k on a 370z and heavily modifying it then you wouldnt have qualms about buying a Ferrari in the first place or a GTR. Its about what money you have in the first place. 'A £30k car can never be made as good as a £100k car', is the £30k car buying a brand new car, or the original RRP of a car IE a 350z and buying it second hand at £6000 and comparing it to a brand new £100k car? Thats a different ball park too.
But theres a difference between spending a few thousand on a Saxo or Civic when you could buy a 350z for a few grand more, as opposed to bying a second hand 350z and spending a couple of grand on that as opposed to shelling £40k more for a second hand GTR. In that sense, a few grand on a 350z will improve the car in many ways. To the level of a GTR? No. but give yourself a £10k budget and you'll have a supreme vehicle thats not lightyears away from a £50k second hand or £100k new GTR
Are you new to the world of modifying? - There is no such thing as budget my friend.
There is a 'point of no return' when you start modding a car.
The 30k new vs 6k used is all relative. The price of exotics also decrease, maybe not to the same extent.
This is becoming overly complicated debate.

I got one as well! LOL

Thanks for the feedback.
Interesting comments....
For me, it's the love affair that you have with the car. Mines been going on 5 years now. And at today's prices, I could have bought 3 350z's and a chunk of change with the monies I've spent purely on mods alone.
I like the whole process of trial and error and over time making the car better and better, seeing it develop like a small child.
However, it has been a lot of headache and uphill struggle as well. Then when I drive to somewhere like the ring and see GT3s everywhere that are already prepped from the factory zapping past me, I think "why bother?". Seeing that video of the 991 GT3 gave me that same feeling again.

Ok, this I think is quite an interesting topic....
A few friends of mine and I are having a debate about this. We all have different performance cars.
To keep things simple, let's keep the focus on the 350 / 370z.
No matter how much money is thrown at a zed, it can never be as good (overall) as a GT3 / GT-R / Ferrari / whatever, so why do we bother modding them?
Is it not a wiser to save your pennies and wait until you can afford a better car? - Taking into account the fact we all know you will never get the thousands you spend on your zed. Discuss!
(I say this while placing some orders on some aftermarket parts I want for the zed lol)
-
If this is the GT3, how good will the RS model be I wonder?
-
Am I too late for this?
If someone doesn't want theirs, sell it to me. Thanks.

Are they 3 separate wires or ones which should be connected to a harness?
-
I had a similar problem to this (on a Pioneer pioneer avh-x3500dab)...but mine was that the harness had been snipped off by a previous owner and the audio place is struggling to find the volume wires out of the 30 odd wires there.
Will I need to replace the whole steering wheel to make this work or can I buy the steering wheel volume button harness from somewhere?
Oh and BulletMagnet; how did you guys wire up the call answer to switch between audio sources?
-
As above or similar which doesn't restrict flow and quietens things down a little.
-
Anyone know where to get bungs for this exhaust?
-
-
Can't believe I finally caught up with this thread now!! Great stuff aqua man!!
-
This is 100% certified bargain. Same exhaust I run which everyone says sounds like an exotic!
-
I've done it a few times when the bonnet latch wouldn't open.
Can't say I recommend it but no choice.
-
Sorry to be clear, not interested in OEM. Looking at aftermarket stuff.
Coilovers, camber arms, and the like.

I presume you may need to remove it and change it to another one.
I got the Clifford Concept 650. Does the job fine.
