The Scots might find that funny

Just get an import with heated seats?

Most s2k ariels look like that. The c2 aerial is MUCH better.

Pardon theres alwasy one!! who invited the wise guy! Dave doesn't need an invatation. If there is a joke to be made SMD is there

I dont see whats wrong with it? The wrap/paint job is funky and promotes a good cause. The massive spoiler and the front ducts are functional because its a track car. I'd rather a track car with cool brakes than a smooth bumper and no brakes

You can use the standard bits for using the stands if you put the stands parallel to your car.

Well good luck with your build. As the bannatyne says, " I'm out"

I did say that it comes across like that but it wasnt meant that way. But again and don't take this as an insult, but you don't seem to know what your doing. An mrev2 on a de? Who told you that. If you want to modify the lower collecter clean up the casting marks and take a little bit if metal off. There is a thread on One of the us 350 forums. I wanted cams when I first got the 350 but n/a tuning is a dark art. Oversized valves multi angle valves port and polish. Every mod I a highly tuned n/a directly effects the next one. It's your money and you don't have to take my advice it's a discussion board at the end of the day.

e270 or e320 diesel. Will give awesome mpg carry 5 in comfort and they cruise, handle and soak up bumps in one car.

IMO i wouldnt if I was you. No offence but you dont seem to know that much and this is something that needs alot of thought. Also you say its all about money but a n/a is going to cost you more than an fi setup as everything is so precise and you cant skimp and save. Also vtec in a vq35 The m3 also uses ITB's. Yes vanos is like vvt but thats not the main reason it makes good power. Do you know how vtec works? I know this probably comes across as I know more than you know nothing but I'm only highlighting that without solid research you will be left with no money and a zed which is not much faster than standard Why not give abbey 10-15k and they will most likely give you a decent car. I thought cams wont give you any increase without increasing comp? You really need someone who knows their way around a zed for a good build IMO.

Im sure someone said you could run ITB's off a standard ecu if the itb's where in a box as such. I think you would need a brake vacuum too?

Are you planning on doing a high power n/a zed?

Lol I wasn't sayings to become an REO. But if a Scottish member is reading this and wants to give it a bash why not take team up on the offer. As Neil said it's hard for someone to commit full time to being an REO but if their was 2 then less burden on each person.

16 pages! I'd add my drivel to it. I think everyone is getting a little bit defensive here. NeilP and some of the team. I'm not saying that to wind anyone up but Im looking from outside the box and this is what it seams to me. Mods, team and admin. I think your getting defensive because you feel that you all work hard and put your time, effort, blood and tears into this place. You never get a thank you and are blamed for alot of stuff. Sometimes I bet you think why do I even bother. But when it all going good I bet you guys love it and you have taken the club strength to strength. But look at it from Neil's point of view. The boy is probably on here 20+hours a day. He stuck with his 350z over a 'rari because of this club. This will be more than a forum or an internet club, this is where he can speak to like minded people. One of his social networks. A learning resource and somewhere he can organise meets ans drives to help the club which he enjoys. So you have to see his side. Neil You got to see it from their side too. Like you said you dont want to be a mod cos you know what a pain in the backside it would be. I completely see where your coming from and I'l add my 2p under this but it looked like you was saying you guys suck we want someone else. Now I read all 16 pages and your not even hinting that but thats how it reads on the internet. I bet this was face to face it would have been different but things just read different on the web. These guys muck in and take their own time out to do stuff. They will have kids and jobs and other stuff going on too. You only said what you said not to ruffle feathers but you love this place and want it to be even better. The mods/admin and you are aiming for the same goal but I think its got misunderstood. The club and mods cant be everything to everyone. This is an awesome forum. There is a few people I like to have banter on here with SMD, Ricey, rt, neilp, keyser, andlid and lots more ( I love you all). I even get decent banter with Dan(ekona) bar mixed tyres . Because of the times and hours/days I work I cant usually go to meets on weekends and so on but its good that they happen. Im not saying the mods need help but what happened to Lincolnbaggie. If he isnt on here much can you not demote him and get another person for the mod job. If you mods are less worked you will enjoy coming on here even more. If someone inst pulling their weight get rid and start new. In Scotland why not have another 2 REO's? Its alot of work for 2 people so why not ease the burden? In England Zee, Woody, Martinopy and Jerry havent visited this site for some months. Some even last year. Can you not find people to do the job or is no one standing up for the job? My only criticism to the team and not all are that bad but sometimes it may come across authoritarian when someone asks for something and they get shut down and you guys say your busy. Alot of us know how busy you are but I think a little bit of tact would make the no a little less harsh? Alot of us have been here for a good while now and this is my 350z crew. We all behave pretty well and moderate ourselves usually. All we ask which we do get most of the time is a say or input. I know we dont pay or put in hours coding but look at the "other" 350z site.

ahh so your already running the blue. Cool didnt know that

Why would you want a normal coloured fluid rather than blue?

Yes, but you are forgetting the noise they would make.

hydrate 80 to treat then paint over or, deox gel then brush and rinse then paint over or protect.

The black really really pulls that off

German cars are much nicer to work on IMO. They are better engineered and they knew someone one day would change the part. Nice big bolts and space for you to work. Japanese cars generally have loads of little tiny bolts which are rusty. You are going to need a fair few tools. I've spent a crao load on tools but now I have a decent collection and can do most things. It's still growing though. IMO you want a low entry high lift jack. Good axle stands. A nice halfords pro socket set. An impact wrench and a decent penetration fluid like plusgas or ferrosol. Gloves and a boiler suit too.

My JDM's been run on super always. So will most other imports. If Sarnie keeps quiet the value of them will rocket.

I bought a Belkin wireless range extender. Piece of crap only worked with other Belkin stuff. Moght be different these days though. Unless you are going to get an ethernet cable and plug one side into the router and the other into the access point?

We used to do this thing where we would sand the top of the heatstrink (if they had one) smooth. Do people still do that? If was to get a flatter surface for the cooler to sit on. Amd isn't doing great these days is it? The barton Athlon xp's and athlon 64's where much better than the net burst p4's. I've had a few pre made pc's and they have come with intel core2 or core quad's I thought it was just because intel had more PR behind them. Some 6 core amd's are slower than lower clocked intels. Hmm is it worth getting the hd3000 over the hd2000 graphics if it's only for hd video?

He knows it's just banter. But the coupe could have been something great. More than just a pretty car. My auntie had a 2.7 v6 one and it was so slow. If they put a fizzy engine in there it could have a hoot.

an i5 is to much for the office pc its nearly double. For a home pc I would get one but with the pennies Im saving the idea was to get a SSD and a bigger hdd. Do all SSD's have trim? Whats a good read and write speed? the ocz vertex Read 185MB/s Write 90MB/s but OCZ 60GB Agility 3 "claims" - Read 525MB/s Write 475MB/s. I'd prefer to build it myself as it pretty easy. I just hate using TIM if you still get it these days. i3 will do the job then I guess if it is just business orientated. I would personally avoid OCZ SSD's, they had horrendous problems and poor customer support, just google it and you will see.... ok almost all SSD suppliers had problems with the original ones but I would avoid OCZ like the plague.... I got a crucial one and it has been great, just make sure it is SATA III and not SATA II as that makes a big difference, and that your motherboard supports SATA III obviously and you are good to go with super fast data transfer.... I couldn't go back now I am so used to loading up applications in an instant and no loading times in games etc. It even loads iTunes in about 10 seconds which considering it has over 300GB of music in it is no mean feat Yeah just read about them. The negative reviews where at the bottom. I ordered a crucial m4. The ocz speeds are mad but alot of people say they crash alot. I think its something to do with the sandforce controller. I love speccing up pc's though. Came in at £250 which I'm super happy about. I already have a case. Will the onboard graphics handle hd video? Thanks again
