  1. i just saw that if you dont use high octaine you lose about 15ps, so if anyone knows what that is in horsepower please let me know
  2. finally have a bit of spare time tomoro so will be installing the 5/16 iso therm plenum spacer, im not installing a mrev2, so do you only replace the gasket if your doing the mrev2
  3. need two new rear tyres, have re040's on atm but re050's might do. not bothered if there part worn, hopefully someone can help me out,

    is it safe

    is it safe

    i know everyone hates bridgestone re040, dont find them great myself but i dont think it helps that the rears are on about 3mm of tread at the most. does it matter if you have re040's on the front but put re050 bridgestones on the back. front tyres still have a good 5mm on them so dont really want to change all four as im gettin some new 19's in the next few months

    polished plenum

    looking for a polished plenum if anyone has one
  8. looking at getting a nismo v1 kit sprayed up, never been to a body shop before hence askin this question. Was just wanting advice from peoples past experiences. What am i ment to ask, by that i mean how many coats are they going to give it .Should i ask to look at what there workin on at the minute etc. Thought itd be good if i was a bit clued up before asking as i want a spot on job and not a bodge. areas around the north east
  9. was probabley a gti 30 edition, you can never tell what there puttin out, i had a dabble with a 08 reg r32 on sat, i pulled a good distance ahead and he wasnt catching, no excuse for him he had dsg, the look on his face when i slowed down, proper evils haha
  10. heat them up with a hair dryer or hot water to soften the tape that holds them on, or use like fishing wire to get down the back, something flat wrapped in cloth so you dont damage the paint, just done mine. all i can say is be patient while doing it

    correct oil

    okay, im not a dummy. just had my jdm 350z for over a month now oil needs a lil top up. not sure what the correct oil is though, 5w-40? looked in halfords in the oil booklet and it said this so when i picked up the castrol stuff it said specially for ford engines so which type of oil am i ment to be using, dont want to bugger the engine

    GUTTED

    can understand your frustration, someone smashed my wing mirror off once, found it in bits half way down the road. 90% of ppl now a days are rude idiots
  13. good luck buying your zed, white is nice but why follow trends when you can set them, if you get an white import your insurance will be high, because of your age that's if they are even willing to insure you in the first place tbh when your hearts pumping driving the zed colour wont even come into your mind
  14. ive had mine over 3wks, best xmas present ive ever bought myself, i love it. The only bad thing is i want to be in it all the time
  15. the worst offenders around my area are the nurburgring vxr's .
  16. is it me or are people oblivious to how quick the z is, i went out this morning half 10 and cruising along the motor way all i hear is beep beep beep and its some moran in a toyota celica 180 wanting to race, i couldnt be bothered but then his mate threw rubbish at the car so i was like oh no you didnt, so i gav him what he wanted and left him hundreds of meters behind me, finally catches up and then decides to tail gate me for miles. why are some people just imbreds...... its like everyone wants to race me
  17. yackkkk them wheels look like something of a 70's car. some people just have no taste
  18. budget is £1500 like the standard look, not the exhaust that looks like it has two massive bean cans hanging out it, dont want bungs and i want it too sound nicccce, not farty and tinny
  19. i hate when stuff like that happens, well they say bad luck comes in 3's so your bank balance should be safe for a while now
  20. my crappy jdm exhaust just has to go, cant decide which is the best exhaust. looking for good bhp gains while reducing weight, i know the nismo is good, but what else? what are you guys running. dont really want a scorpion seems abit halfordie, was looking at sunline racing are there systems any good
  21. ill have one of these, ill be number 10
  22. there much better than standard, second hand ones will be around £700 a set i thnk
  23. installin this at the weekend have just been reading the instruction,got to the bit where it says cut your hose to fit the coolant control valve, question is, what does it do and what happens if you dont put it on
  24. its annoying when that happens, it prob failed for the fact the letters are 3d rather than just bein flat etc just do what most of us do put the legal ones on for the mot then change it back to the better lookin ones when its passed
  25. nope it, dnt its a jdm accesorie i think. i much prefer this to standard and prob will carbon wrap the silver plastic bit, just hope someone comes along and can tell me where to buy one
