I thought HR's had knock detection all the way to the redline. Also I think its a far smaller problem than people think it is. Would you rather a well looked after never drove hard properly warmed up 350z thats run on standard or a ragged the hell out of tatty run on super?

Rich you ever shaved with a cut throat? They got that name for a reason. You can get close enough with a slant safety razor or double egged safety razor. Plus cut throats involve a lot of stretching you skin and angle of blade. Lol true enough I use Treet Platinums. They are proper sharp but not scary sharp like feathers. My beard grows fairly thick but not stubbly so it dulls super sharp blades quickly. Saying that I found derby's to tug slightly. Treet Platinums are super cheap too. Feathers work out more but my brother shaves everyday and the closeness and comfort are worth the extra few pence a day. Oddly enough though the blade can make a massive difference you how nice your shave is. Feathers are great as even when my beard is long and thick it goes right through it. If you cut yourself it doesn't even hurt. But on a daily basis I prefer the TP's. I personally found that most of these after shave "solutions" where not great. Try cold water than olive oil if you don't have coconut oil. It will soak in and soothe much better. only a little bit though oh and before that try the alum block. You can buy these in some health shops and Online. I used to use shaving shack but a guy on eBay does most of the stuff I want called Connaught shaving. Just email him to try see if he does what you want. I usually buy my blades in 100's as I know I like them but I'm sure he does "taster" packs with different blades. I think he has a website too. Have you checked out mantic's video's on YouTube?

I sometimes use an oil. Can't remember which company but it's small and triangular looking. 3 drops of that and rub it in. It will sting for 30secs then lather ontop. 2 things I find make a big difference is how hot you get your face a good few mins of washing or a shower will do. The way you make the lather plumps up the hair and smooths the cut. I use oil if my hair is long or I want a smooth shave. I do 2 passes one with and one against. Lathering in between. After I have shaved I usually keep splashing COLD water on my face then get my alum block not alum stick and rub some of it into a cup of water. Then I rub that water into my face. You can feel it close and tighten. For moisturiser I use cold pressed coconut oil. Works way better than Nivea and the likes plus if you buy in bulk works out decent to. It's solid but a quick rub gets it liquid.

People bang on about prorasso it's rubbish. I've got a super badger brush that I use with Mitchell and woolfat soap. I used to use old Taylor's of bond street cream both are ace. I think mines is a merkur 38c. Which blades are you using?

All tyres sound pretty bad on the motorway due to the arches being behind your head pretty much. I found the re50's to be fairly quiet. I had gsd3's and they where much louder.

The 350 in general doesnt respond to any mod particularly well they have to be done supporting each other so A plenum spacer will do a little bit but when its on there with decats it makes more of a difference. Not in the sense that the decats help the spacer do its job its just because each mod only usually adds a little power and a little power on a heavy car doesnt mean alot.

Not really. Just mid range torque. I found that full exhaust plus decats makes it smooth higher up.

Amt is a good laugh. He takes it on the chin and knows we keed. But awesome thread is awesome

kestral das6 with megs microfibre 2step correction. With a bmw I'd be wanting to use a rotary personally.

+1

I work in Arbroath You said you probably won't be able to get a nismo kitted one which is true but there is plenty of great ones out there for that price. They are solid cars

Hi mate. Where abouts in Angus? I personally think aslong as your not to fussy with miles you can get a great early car. It's a buyers market and a lot of people are desperate to sell with the highish running costs. So you can bag yourself a bargain.

The assymericals are better. The gsd3's whilst great had a few problems. They would shred on gravel. They where noisy, I didn't notice how much until I replaced them and they had great wet grip but tending to hydroplane on puddles of a smallish size.

That bottom 350z must have had ALOT of work done to have got them to fit

+1 You can either just not post or say well I think the work thats gone into it is awesome but it isnt to my taste. Its good we have different taste though Or something like that. We all have different taste and our own tastes change.

No mate, it just annoys me when people do these petty snipes at peoples cars. Yes they should man up and take it but when someone has put care and attention into it its hard to hear your cars crap doesn't really show us being a friendly lot either, when we are. All forums have their certain sheep look cars here its rays with spaces or rota gtr's but when people are like look at this car its soo ugly because I dont like the wheels. It just winds me up

I quite like the ones in that bottom picture. A bit mad but its cool to see what can be done.

Theres a Z in the U.S running on 22s PICS!

I wish people would grow up sometimes, that car is too low and it doesnt have oem rays or rota gtr's its crap. I've read some of the stuff he has done on driftworks you can tell he is a knowledgeable guy. Also the car is hero spec IMO. That sunset is probably my favourite car on the forum.

Good find thanks

What and tell him how your taste is better than his. Was you just looking through pistonheads to take the pee, you already own a 350 do you not. If only he would impress people on the forum with gtr's after all who else is your car there to impress?

There is a guy with a slammed 350 with 7series wheels. Looks awesome! Check on driftworks

If you was going to go for brembos but now a bbk its worth it IMO. Ive heard you should do them both at the same time though as it could unbalance the car?

do it and I will put a picture of you on my wall. Hero.

Nice work, could I have some more info about that lead and cable please. I have a jdm and not much reads it. Cheers
