  1. Thanks Uncle Keyser and Scorps always got the knowledge.

    Il take my filter off bpv for now and see how much more noise I get, spring rates are already giving me a headache but will find out what i have then go from there but looking like a Tial swap over at some point.

    Thanks for link to MLR they are literally down the road from me so will just go and see them, im pretty sire i know the guy anyway.

    As for Ash hoses some extensive measuring is order then lol but really not happy with how little hose covers ends of connecting pipes theres barely room for the clip.

    Thanks guys 

  2. So after 14 months out and learning to walk again after snapping my Achilles tendon clean in half, I am now back and ready to bring my zed back out for the summer.

    Done a bit of research but still a bit baffled:

     

    Silicone hoses for inter cooler piping have seen better days and are quite short and not much room for maneuver, they are fine but I would rather replace the lot but is there a replacement vortech hose kit? or am i going to have to buy a length and cut up to make my own? if so what hoses should I go for (obviously dont want to cheap out and have them split or bulge or explode)

     

    By pass valve - Mine is really quiet but has vortech filter over it will removing filter make much more noise? obviously im after whooshes lol mine does do it but ive heard some that are savage. Im confused with bypass valve as everything else is blow off valve, most common one i see is Tial (bloody expensive) but have no idea which model it is, are there any alternatives anyone has run in past or at the moment that works with Vortech? and will it effect performance over my current vortech bpv

     

    Also any good recommendations for places that will machine AN fittings onto cut a set length of braided hose.

     

    Ive been a bit off the scene so hard getting back into all the research bits but must say really excited to have the zed back (my mates been looking after it in his garage all this time) contemplated chucking it in recently for either a V10 M6 or Audi R8 but thought better of it for now and decided to keep the beast

     

    Any info or advice on above would be great 

     

     

  3. im popping it up for sale over weekend take a look, never got round to fitting it as i snapped my leg, I do like it, it took me ages to get hold of one but found another i like now, mine is a complicated situation as I have a 350 bumper but moulded 370z insert so i have a mash up bumper 

  4. Im in Surrey so maybe tricky to get from you unless you ever come close here which I doubt.

    Thanks for asking by the way mate much appreciated, I will pop my other diffuser up for sale and when its gone il probably order one for myself but let him know if you speak to him im pretty much getting one.

    See what he says about addresses if he will send seperate il take it straight away to make life easier

  5. what about a s/c 350z pick up? you can hack mine up for your car any day :lol: but others are on the right track i guess, with all the other toys you have to play with, but if nothing floats your boat keep hold of it I say for a little while longer and try to use it more if can, even with the wrap issues its still one of the meanest 370's ive seen, if its going to sit maybe shift it and lay in wait

  6. probably no help to you now but I have a microwave sensor on my alarm and ive watched the cats tiptoe up the bonnet only to get up the windscreen to the roof and get a nice loud warning siren which they promptly jump off at this point :lol: they have got round this a couple of times though

  7. Love all these spent many late nights as a youth round my mates playing all these making noise and annoying the neighbours especially with Goldeneye.

    Quite a few years ago now but my mate and me went hunting round the bootsales and got a n64, snes, nes and a master system.

    Ive still got my old megadrive (jap import version just like the zed :lol: ) my favourite game QuackShot

     

    Quackshot was awesome!! I've got the music in my head now.... I'm gonna burn it to a CD or get it as an MP3 and play it in my Z full blast windows down while driving round Manchester city centre on a busy warm night for all the club leavers to hear!!

     

     

    It always had catchy tunes in the game. Funny thing is I still havent completed it :lol: even remember where I got stuck its the level where the whales pop out of the gap and try to bite you

    I totally forgot about Jap imports!!!!

     

    Yep we were the kings of the megadrive world back then, can play any region game so never mattered which ones we bought except all the writing was in japanese so no one ever knew what the F was going on :lol:

  10. Not to everyones specs or taste but I recently got a hero sessions 4 which I mounted between the seats and just run a longer cable to my power bank to keep it on with 64mb sd card set on loop and remote to control... ive caught loads of utter t**s already on it from one week!!

    Good thing is it comes out easy enough but hidden well enough between seats if left in car but no drama for me putting it in and out of car when needed but some people may find that annoying

  11. a few pics from recent mods

    some of the nightmare wiring for alarm

    Never had a convertible and first time I put the roof down so thought I would throw a pic in, thought it would look odd with roof down but its ok in my eyes
