yeah great day , also suffering hearing damage from the jet car and that f*** horn from the pick up behind us !

thanks , just put what i hope is the final layer on (got no more brushes !) the i just need to drill the mounting holes ad get it covered and finally decided wher to put the terminals that wont look silly.

getting there ..

which way up does that go then , sub fireing upwards or out ?

POP ! and shes out , still very thin though so will need another few layers and clsoing up .

nearly , i stuck another layer on with extra MEKP and it seems to be working soooo.. fingures crossed my adaptor will turn up in the morning and il be able to have it all in for japshow this sunday.

and now i play the waiting game to see if it willset as my cataylst is quite old , doh !

After a little thinking i decided to go the 8 inch route wiht my old Hu and alpine mono amp to drive the new sub. amp under glove box nicely hiddena dn sub in a custom box in the bose space. howver after making the front baffle to take the 8 i found it just wasnt going to work making the enclosure fit through the hole left ! so new plan sub is going in the boot passanger side order as this will be muhc easyer to mould ! so below is whats going in (if the head unit loom ever turns up!) more instal updates as i progress !

i in tend to be getting ont he m1 at about 7:30 be ther for just before 9 so i guess it depensd where your coming from/need to meet .

no worries drop me a pm if your going on sunday and we can sort somthing , in the middle of ICE install at the mo frantically trying to get it done so i can put the car back together for sunday ... hope this blinking loom turns up tommorrow or im scupperred

dont know about convoys but il heading up the m1 from the m10 hemel junction (well thats where il join it ) so could meet if your want.

or just do like me, keep the bonnet down and prentend its a sleeper might try and pick up some bits while im there too as i think theres quite a large traders area.

yes but then again anything can be done its juts a case of how much work. you could just drill some holes and bolt it in but DONT ! easyest thing is ignore that location and put in the boot but if you must mount it there (im in the process of putting an 8 there) its been done by taking the mtel plate out and fitting the box in the space left , have a search around .

Looking good indeed , yeti you should go see what knight racer have as your even nearer than me and they seem to ahve a fair bit of carbon goodness

liking the subtle rear spoiler , I had the same idea. Also considering the varis one myself so you may want to check that out too as its a little bigger but still subtle , i think !

tbh though a vented bonnet would probably do a better job of keeping the engine bay temps and thus any heat soak at bay

il have one please if its going , the cars still almost stock

Im up for going on the sunday, anyone convoying up from the south ?? any luck il have my stereo sorted by then too (or il have a car in bits still)

my previous focus St had a snorkel duct setup as oem but that had the snorkel placed up high near where the Z has the air box any hows. changed to a k n n typhoon and good good gain (14bhp on the a dyno) but that didnt have the heat soak issue i can see the Z getting . still quite shocked how hot the intake pipe gets , cant be good for air temps .

from my350z.com ..... http://my350z.com/forum/audio-builds/22 ... ystem.html about half way down (audio builds thread pg1) , not mine but im sure the owner wont mind . hes got it in the uper of the 2 slots (normal tray below postion) and im afraid the a cubby screen is going to be usless as its pretty much as you thought all covered

and even then the boxes the cones sit in isnt 100% sealed so it would just suck air thorugh the gaps before it sucked water .

looks good indeed and for wild veilside car quite subtle. any idea how the weight compares to the oem one ?

quick call and they say ..one week to get it in stock and same price as advertised so...............could be ording one soon .

yeah heard it on youtube and found a thread on my350z that seemed to suggest good things . down side is funky power are the only people ive seen in Uk that sell it so if they havent bucked theyre ideas up i may have to drop another Pm to one of our US friends . thanks

Just got my Z back the guys at Japex ( I finally getting around to sorting my ticking time bomb), the guys did a great a job and got a plenum spacer added while the thing was in bits (thanks z store) now ive got the craving for new exhaust as the old one looks alittle worse for wear . Choice is huge and i was leaning to a mongoose or K2 till i came across the skunk2 . true dual and looks like clone of the amuse r1 but made from stainless and half the price . any heard one fo these or know of any issues if now i might be the guinea pig as I want somthing a little out of the ordinary oh and linky to zorst may help ! https://www.funkypower.co.uk/catalogue. ... oduct=5016
