  1. I wonder how many V-Power points you get for a full tank on that....

     

    My girlfriends dad has a 46' hershine marine with twin volvo pentas (think they are 12 liter ones) and the first time we went out on it I thought I would do the right thing and offer to pay for the fuel then we stopped to fill up on the way out of the harbour...... He of course accepted with a smile on his face, I didnt have a smile on my face when after 15 mins the thing was still filling up!! With the smirk on his face he told me I could buy the beers instead and told the guy filling up to put it on his company account!!

     

    How much?

     

    IIRC it was about £1100...... :wacko:

     

    Oh my goodness! :bangin:

     

    That's like almost my car insurance for the year!

     

    You really do have to be rich to own a boat!

  3. Chris I think you're expecting too much from the stock ECU without any sort of aid.

     

    RSTuning: I'm sure you already know this but there are 14 different types of stock ECU for the 350z and no two are alike. You may need to get as many different models as possible to do you data collation and testing.

  4. What do you mean by "patched"? Software patch or hardware?

     

    If all is good to go, you may want to set up a group buy session for rolling road and mapping... Reckon it will be MUCH easier for you once you get a few similar N/A zeds mapped from scratch. You'll then have the maps to build upon...

  5. I've got one I don't use any longer. Yours for £10 inc P&P :)

     

     

     

     

    do you still have the stubby trev?

     

    Sorry Buddy, Elecious bought it. :)

     

    We have them in stock.

     

    Sarah... how long are the threads for yours?

     

    I brought one on ebay and it was too short. Can you post a pic?

  6. Oh... thought it could be north london.. Can't help you i'm afraid.. but try and get a good person to do it, otherwise it'll be double.. like it was with mine! :(

  7. Where abouts are you in the north? you don't mean north london by any chance do you? :p

    Be careful with clutch install. I had a monkey do mine and it burnt out in a month! Brand new Exedy Stage 1 :thumbdown:

  8. It's sad to think that in a way all these "breathing" mods are a waste of money if this map / flash doesn't work. Unless ofcourse you were doing it for the noise... in which case, it's worth it... Just about...

     

    but with my car, it seems as if I've LOST power due to running lean. :thumbdown:

  9. I think for 20 - 30bhp.. the £575.00 + god knows how much fuel (to get there and back) would probably be worth it.

    But I somehow doubt it'll be this much.

     

    Otherwise, peeps, I would recommend you spend your money wisely and get a 50bhp of nitrous (like I did!)

  10. This is what Ben @ eurospec told me:

     

    "Basically the car is spot on afr on idle and cruise, but under full

    throttle (with no nos) the afr is in the 13s. Its leaner than other 350s

    ive run. Ideally i would like to see it running 12.5 afr. Its basically

    13.5 at worst- its not horrendous, but i suspect there is something

    underlying on the car- maybe it just has a really good induction kit on

    there and its genuinely getting more air.

     

    If that is the case, something like a simple afc controller will sort him

    out.

     

    On nitrous it runs a flat 12 afr- where i would like to see an 11.5. It

    wont make any more power (likely it will make marginally less, but it will

    be that bit cooler and therfore safer). It has no det except at 2k when you

    hold it on full load, but all 350s do that.

     

    I would just investigate the fuel system, if its A1, then prolly just an afc

    controller would do, along with a very slightly bigger fuel jet for the nos

    kit."

  11. Anyone need a spare ECU ;)

     

    Martin, your spare ECU won't work on any other car model type then your own. There are over 14 different types of ECUs. If you don't get a "match" it WON'T work.

     

    I have 3 ECUs sitting on my desk at home due to this error I made... so please don't sell it without advising this.

  12. Thanks Chilly,

     

    Are these comparable to these?

     

    I'm interested in Berks only. But they have to be a good price. I can get them for £350 delivered. If you can beat that, then I'm all ears! :)

     

    Wizard, grateful if you can share a bit of detail

    Cheers

     

    Not sure which Berk Cats he is comparing to. Wizard are these the New Berk Technology Metallic Substrate High Flow Cats? These haven't passed govenment testing yet so aren't available for a week or so. If it iis I would like to know who your buying from. :)

     

    Whats the difference between these and the stainless steel ones? :bounce:

  13. 300 is wayy too much.

     

    I paid 180 to have my cracked rear bumper repaired and fully resprayed a few years ago (Accord Type-R), but I think the bodyshop man has changed his number! :(

     

    I too need to get my front bumper changed and sprayed.. if only i could find him again... he was brilliant!!

     

    where are you?

     

    London, where takin a p!ss costs money!
