  1. Does that stuff actually work?! I don't really get how an oil could fill up holes in metal?!
  2. Japfest is on the 10th May but if its later on I could be game!
  3. Small world! What was the final oil useage for the day? Wheels need tyres ASAP now!
  4. Well the day was a success all round, the weather stayed dry and there was a great crowd The Z's held there own against much lighter track machines, hopefully have some videos soon! Bit of camber adjustment midday after a loose bolt caused some 'interesting' handling
  5. Not really worth it unfortunately. Could probably get £100ish for the tyres alone but would cost £40 to get them off! Sorry mate.
  6. Depends how OCD you are really..... I have seen a lot worse wheels on here sold as 'Great condition'. There is no curbing but there is slight corrosion.
  7. After my first proper track experience in the Z yesterday I can 100% agree with this. I chased a VXR220 around Bedford for 5 laps, nothing gained nothing lost and that is a more honed track machine. Then I got to cruise home in comfort afterwards!
  8. Unfortunately £300 is far too low. Curbed wheels with no tyres go for that on eBay. Thank you for the offer anyway.
  9. Based at Green Park during the day so happy to take a look if you are worried.

    RX8

    I would own an R3 in an hearbeat.... http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/mazda/rx-8/mazda-rx-8-r3-231-2008/1008699?isexperiment=true 9k for a 2008 car with 14k on the clock
  12. In standard form the Z is awful at standing starting...in gear it's fine. Uprev helps with the standing starts but it's still not amazing. Punto Turbo is an awful car anyway....
  13. Lucky escape for the mighty Z!
  14. Ouch Thanks.
  15. Did you realise it was yellow? Looks lovely mate!
  16. Is the 3.4 engine reliable mate?! Seen a few horror stories with this era of Porsche but don't really know my engine/chassis codes like I do with the japs.
  17. It looks amazing, why does yours look so good and all the ones I have seen for sale look awful!!!
  18. Shipped out yesterday! Thread can be locked please
  19. Wow that is lovely!
  20. The revup model is known is use oil. Personally it would be DE or HR for me as the revup isnt worth the extra worry/tax!
  21. Hello Guys, Please find below the sale of my Rays wheels. They are what I would call average to good condition. They have the factory paint still on them as the blue weighting dot is still visible. There is zero curbing on any of the wheels but one has signs of wear from tyre fitting and corrosion has started to creep in on some of the spokes. Tyres are all Bridgestone Potenza REO50A's. 225/45/18 with 5mm on the front and 245/45/18 with 3mm on the rear. Based in Reading, Berkshire. £450 collected. Can be posted for an extra £35.50 - http://www.paisleyfr...eel-courier.php Front Rear Any questions please ask!
  22. As I am feeling nice 350Z and 370Z remapping The UpRev engine management software allows us to fully remap the standard 350Z and 370Z ECU. You can expect: Better throttle response - the standard ECU reduces throttle response in the lower gears. By tuning the throttle pedal to throttle plate map we can make the car feel more lively. Also, fuel and ignition timing map optimisation is carried out leading to further improvements. We can reprogram the ECU to have a direct 1:1 relationship between pedal and throttle - not recommended for road use but can be great on track - this feature removes cruise control. More power and more torque - by optimising the various fuelling and ignition timing maps we get the most power and torque from your car Better fuel economy - some customers report better fuel economy after their remap. Obviously this varies quite a bit depending on driving style. Speed and rev limits - we can alter speed and rev limits Removal of check engine light if running with de-cat pipes Multi maps - some cars can have up to 5 ignition, fuel and rev / speed limit maps. This allows, for example, a valet map or a map for high octane fuel We get good gains from completely standard cars and make the most of cars fitted with aftermarket parts. Check out our engine upgrade packages here. You can custom map the ECU for a standard engine or almost any modifications. The following tables can be accessed via an UpRev: Idle RPM Speed Limiter Electronic Throttle Control to achieve Wide Open Throttle at all speeds Rev Limiter DTC disable AFR Targets Fuel Compensation Ignition Timing Advance Cam Phasing for equipped vehicles MAF transfer function Cranking Enrichment and Ignition Advance Injector Latency K Fuel Multiplier Intake Temp Calculated Load vs. RPM Minimum Effective Injector Pulse Width
  23. A reverse bulb! Putting my Rota's back on over the weekend for Bedford on Monday so that will keep me happy for a while
