  1. As usual, we've met at RT Performance for some more car work, banter, fun, pizza and beer! Oh, and some chicken! Same team: DarrenB, octet, Modjo and Taras from RTP. We've started with the Camaro' suspension so we can free the ramp, ready for the zed. Had to readjust the height a couple of times to get it right, on the new BC coilovers. So we've got the ramp ready, and while Darren and Taras were working to put the Camaro back after a full respray job, me and Mojdo started on the Zed Parts that went onto the 370z: SPL midlinks, new rear springs, GTSpec rear brace, SPL locking bolts kit: Modjo in action, the removing the midlinks / buckets We removed the rear midlinks, here are some comparison photos: Meanwhile, on the Camaro, everything was coming nicely together! It looks mean and screams like a thunder! Back to the 370z, the top mount for the new 2.5" springs was in: Midlinks and springs in: Some much needed lubrication GT Spec brace and SPL locking bolts in as well Done with the easy bits, time to start playing with the Stage 1.5 GTM supercharger to make it fit the UK RHD cars: End result looking awesome Nearly as good as the Stage 2 GTM kit More to follow shortly!
  2. hi darren-b here octet's ipad have you checked that the rising fuel pressure regulator is incressing the fuel pressure as the vacuum reduces & the sc makes boost? doesnt sound like a misfire, sounds like fuel starvation to me. so the way to test would be start the car, note the fuel pressure @ idle then disconnect the boost hose. the fuel pressure should instantly rise, blow into the pipe or apply pressure with an air hose, no more than 10psi or so though & the fuek pressure should rise & you should notice a change in the engine note as the engine will run alot richer.
  3. Wasso, please take lots of videos and photos while your car is being trashed by Corsas, Puntos and Saxos later today. You will need them to help rebuilding your car back. Have fun and bring some pizza @ RTP on the way back home, won't cost you a lot to deturn through Wembley, I'm sure the RAC guy that will be transporting your car home won't mind that.
  4. Strange thing is none of the guys that know their stuff in terms of cars, engines, forced induction etc have ever complained about their tuning experience with Mark @ Abbey. I know I'm going to upset a few people here, but it's mostly people who had "wippers replaced" or "windscreen fluid top up" sort of jobs that complain openly/ publicly about Mark's services. Seriously, look at the "Official FI list" thread, most of the cars in there are tuned by Mark. I understand and respect that people have preferences, but saying Mark doesn't know his tunning and went to somebody else and problems are now sorted it's not fair. As previously said, I don't know Jez@HDEV or Dan@AME, I'd like to meet them both one day, but in terms of tuning, I'll stand by Mark and always go there everytime I need to. I'm sure most of the FI guys will think the same.

  11. Let me guess... Leosille bought a boosted zed, selling his, buying a new one, boosting that one, selling the ex-boosted one. Smart move!
  12. Anyway, back on topic, the 2.5" ID springs have arrived, ready to fit the midlinks tomorrow morning. Another cracking weekend at RT Performance! Thanks iBishop for sending the springs on time
