I've had MPS4S the last few times and was so impressed I put them on my wifes roadster as well. I thought they were better than the MPSS that I had before and I've read that the MPS4 isn't far behind.
That said, I've heard good reports on Falken FK510(?), don't last as well but good grip.

@TommZ looks great

Wow, I'd buy it but my wife would stab me in the face if I came home with another car or bike.

@Bunning interesting to know, I went from Up Rev to ECUtek as well but didn't experience any issues with UpRev while I had it. Abbey did my 370z and look after it still, I'd definitely recommend them as well.

Hi, @Sim
Funnily enough what kicked this all off was trying to get the 350 mapped after I installed sports headers, cats and a long tube intake.
The guys at Horsham Dev do not seem to be a bad tuner, from what I have been able to read online alot of people have issues with UpRev as a software.
Definitely want my z mapped just not with the UpRev software which has most likely got me into this situation in the first place.
Ok, to be honest this is the first time I've ever heard any Z owner have an issue with UpRev. Where are you reading the bad reviews?
Good luck getting it sorted, I'm surprised someone can't just flash the ECU with base maps, would be interesting to hear the final diagnosis and fix.

Looks great GLWS
-
I think about selling occasionally because I don't drive my Z much, but every time I go fro a drive, I change me mind, it's all about the grin factor for me.
So, I'm basically saying the same as above, unless you need the ££ for something else.

Is there a club stand at this?
Just posting this up as I'm taking the S12 to this as I can't do JapFest at Silverstone in April as it's a mates wedding the day before and I can't imagine me being in a fit state to drive sunday, let alone in the morning.

Looks great, a V8 is on my bucket list : )

Looks really tidy : )
They're great cars, enjoy, but if he hasn't had rwd cars before, get him to take his time, the TC as still crap if you stamp on the loud pedal coming off a roundabout in the wet

@ZMANALEX Big thank you for the Abby Motorsport mention, any lead is a win at this point. Having read through reviews of Up-rev I would prefer it not be a part of my car if I can help it.
I'm puzzled why you don't want UpRev on there? I'd much rather have a mapped Z than stock.
I started with UpRev on my 370Z then went to ECUtek, but only for the extra features, not because there was anything wrong with UpRev.

Every other tuner I have spoken to cannot wipe a map only overwrite it which will not fix the problem.
Seems odd that a full overwrite won't fix it but an OEM map will?
As above, I'm sure Abbey would be able to sort it.

Nice tidy car, GLWS

We've never been to the Ace Cafe, so I'll try and my wife out for this aswell.
Do we need to book a slot or something?

Yup definitely from the rear, crawled around for a bit around the car and the front is silent (other than engine noise of course ^^).
Since I changed the fuel pump I figured it wouldn't be that either.
I'm going to remove the covers on the fuel pump and see if it is that, hopefully not... I hate trying to return faulty goods... Fingers crossed. Will lift the car up on quickjacks and see if I can trace the sound from underneath too. Worst case if it's the exhaust I need to find a nice new system
been eyeing up milltek for a while
We had an odd rattle on a mates motorbike exhaust recently and traced it by using a screwdriver to apply pressure near the joints to see where the rattle source was, might help?

@docwra Holy crap, hard hits.
I went backwards at speed towards the concrete by the toilets and only just got stopped in time, so I'll be being very careful, probably not much top track action, just a feeler for how she's handling.
-
I bet that exhaust sounds nice

@Ortega_9 why to you have to take the kit off for the MOT, where are you?

Did it still sound like it was coming from the rear when you were outside the car?

Happy New Year : )
Wow, good bit of snow there.
So, stupid (maybe not so stupid) question, presumably you use all these parts to make molds and then make GRP/FRP parts from the molds?

Wow, mega buy, they're probably worth easily double that, wish I'd have seen them.
If they don't get collected I'll pay more than £600 for them.....

That's a big old gap on the corner where it's pushed in. I had a similar accident in my 350Z and the repair bill was £10k because I made them jig the chassis.
