even not lowerd you may get the dread ramp issue , my veilside lip stock ride height was fine for ages then i had no wherre to pak bu risk a multi storey and scraped on the down ramp speed hump should be ok for most as peeps said just go slow and dont let the car tip, if your lowing on just srping why not get get the tein one sas they lwoer but only by about 15mm ?

indeed my fave exhaust by far of the none titanium exotics aka ones most people would consider shelling out for. only issue is its a smaller piper diamter than the usual 3" so you'd ideally need to mate it to the tanabe Y aswell . also love the look of the 4.5 inch rolled tips.

if you can get them to send them over il have half carbon one too ! love that wing as its very subtle yet noticable as not the oem one.

bet it sounds the dogs dangleys too, if you ever get strapped for cash its worht over a grand being fully titantium and no longer available.

lucky git ! those are rare as rocking horse poop .

$3650 that barely over £2k ! even getting stung for vat and the postage its still not going to be much over £3k !

+1

well the F1 boys been syaing they could do it for years ... all they needed was a superchared Z and Ian on the camera !

man thats a torwue curve it just ends !

275/40 rear and 245/45 front. 245/45 up front ???? hope thats a typo or youve made your front bigger by nearly 10mm on the radius whihc is quite abit !

personally i DON'T think it needs lowering , with that aggressive offset they fill the arches nicely espcially for 18's . makes me want to hurry up and get th cash for some rotas , good choice . also how wide are they .

nice , is that amoulded sub box ?

yeah lot of space back , ive got my monoblock under the glove comparment so youd never even know its there. theres soo much wasted space in the Z its crazy , irecon there muhc be getting on for 2 cubes a side that could be used for a realy loud install that would be completly hidden if you could mould the boxes right out to the bulk heads.

the bose moved air ? i thought it was just sub standard not a sub woofer ! if your just after stealthy nice sound id go for the same as helimeddaz adn few other have with a decent amp (looks like you found one) and put the sub where the bose was wiht some comps in the rest. heck even the bose main amp can give half decent sound if its backed by a proper sub and head unit , least i tihnk mine sounds ok if a tad under powered .

re chesterfields pm , il do both if theyre charing for it il blinking well use the camping and 2 days stand !

what are you after achieving and how creative you want to get will be the deceding factors. if its just a stealthy install that sounds better thean the bose thats easy , if its a show winning audiophile system your gonna have to get creatve and learn loads (way more than i know) or a big bass thumping car then getting ready to deaden and glass up the boot !

i would have thought the effort involved wouldnt justify the ends opening them out for 8" s vs putting some 6" mid dirvers in there. eitherway way you defiantly want to make some sort of backing to seal them up or theyl ratle and flap about in the open metal space. working with fiberglass isnt that hard but its really dependant on what you moulding into , boot builds are easy since thers a nice open space and not much going upsidedown , those holes on the other hand wold be a PITA ! if the dirvers where slightly smaller however you could mould the cups outside the car and seal to the mounting rings so it was justa drop in , that would be easy to mould.

see last post , direct from japspeed via the GB although im not sure if theyre still doing them at the GB price so best PM them and see.

direct from japspeed , ordered tuesday arrived today ! just got to wait till next week to get it fitted less i can find somewhere else to fit it.

ah thats explains things , still good result. hope you got an uprated clutch and a light foot , hope to see the beast at ISTS .

my japspeed arrived this morning so not fitted yet but all seems as it should be and was a bargin.

shoot Dave nice result , doesnt the standard pulley give somthing just over 400 at the fly and your getting 400whp Abbey know theyre stuff !

hmm , is it wrong that i dont think that looks wrong ??

+1 just find a good car audio palce nearby , must be one somewhere close ish and get them to make it and buy the sub from them if you feel you cant make the box yourself. the under strut is a very simple design , bacialy a box made to the right size for your sub with panels at the front and back to match the struts curve stuck on. re volume , if your not going ported then as long as its not say 10 litres either side of the spec it wont make much difference. fiberglass is the prefered material for audio since it cna be made to any shape and strength by just makeing it thicker, also alot lighter. getting an FG box made will be considerably more expensive but makeing one yourself works out about the same since its a cheap material but very labour intenisve vs just cutting some mdf and putting it togther.
