    Definitive Cars

    American Muscle - Mustang Track toy - Caterham 7.
  2. Kilimanjaro is some spot. Largest free standing mountain in the world. I've been to it, but never attempted to climb it. If you were to attempt it, I would suggest taking in a few of the national parks around it, especially Amboseli, Masai Mara/Serengeti and Ngorogoro. Got these snaps when flying from the coast to the Mara. Not the snow capped delight it once was on the equator, unfortunately.
  3. Maybe update the thread with the answer for future reference?
  4. Hope you get fixed soon, mate Ref. your plumbing - ask them for Laxido made by Galen and double the prescribed dosage, it's amazing!
  5. You seem to have the definitive answer, 20/25 or 25/30 will both work just fine. I think the reason most suggest 20/25 when lowering is because Eibach -30mm springs are very recommended, when you go this low you risk rubbing a bit on the rear if you bring the rear camber right back into factory specs. Plenty lower 30mm with 25/30 spacers, but probably don't correct the camber just as much.

  7. Everyone's very touchy today aren't they?
  8. Bargain!! Too cheap IMHO. If only I could justify buying another
  9. Pretty sure that due to where it's connected, it can only modify the throttle position like the D1. (Plus the extra features and ease of connecting.) Thats my assumption too, however the info in the OP suggests otherwise.
  10. Just buy these http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NISSAN-FAIRLADY-370Z-NISMO-Z34-MT-MODEL-FLOOR-MAT-SET-G4900-1EK11-CARPET-USS-JDM-/201418868349?hash=item2ee580067d:g:pGUAAOSwT6pV5ZUR Or alternatively OEM aren't that bad... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Nissan-370Z-M-T-Genuine-Floor-Mats-Tailored-Luxury-Front-Set-of-2-9999848224-NW-/112335710135?hash=item1a27bae7b7:g:HeAAAOSwGotWj6fZ
  11. £40 for a pair of philips is excellent value. For unbranded stuff I would be aiming around a similar price point and have done in the past without issue. Keep in mind that you need D2R for prefacelift lamps and D2S for facelift
  12. Is this not normal in all RWD cars? Is it possible that you hadn't noticed it before, but now that you've have a little work to your car, you have a heightened awareness?
  13. Fit them and see. Some people have found they can adjust the camber to within a limit they are happy with.
  14. Is it actually throttle response that it alters, or throttle position like the D1?
  15. Routing is excellent on the 350, just tuck it into the headlining around to behind the drivers seat and plug it into the rear 12V. I can't seem to get mine to still well to the screen, though. I have a phone mount thats been there about 6 months and hasn't moved an inch, but this POS falls off all the time
  16. 255/40/18 and 275/40/18 or 245/40/18 and 265/40/18 IMO. First pair would be my choice.
  17. They're Japspeed, but all decats are the same, they're either silenced or not silenced, mine aren't. Thanks, didn't know you could get silenced ones. Just one last thing, have you never had problems at the MOT with the tester noticing that the cats are physically missing even though it passes emissions? I'm not sure the silenced decats make much difference but they do look like cats a bit This was the first time I've put a car through without cats. I would say it's down to the tester, you may get someone who will cause a fuss or you may not.

  19. Very interesting thread this one How did you find the Japspeed HFC's? I've got a Cobra Resonated with a Japspeed Y Pipe and wanting to add a bit more sound without having mot trouble with decats! In your opinion, would the HFCs be noticeable and worth the money? Thanks! The HFCs will make it noticeable louder, nearly decat levels. You may get through MOTs with them but it entirely depends on how hot you get them. Honestly i wish I'd waited a bit and gotten BERK highflow cats, they have an extra chamber built in to deal with rasp. That's the biggest con so far is how raspy its become while booting it Not Berks, ARK have the resonation chamber
  20. Kyle, In my last MOT the testers could barely get a reading off my exhaust, and now I'm getting a o2 sensor CEL. Do you think that means I'm running lean, and could the two be related? How would you fix running lean? Cheers! Honestly no idea mate. Did the tester mention it, or did you just notice it on the screen or printout? They were standing around scratching their heads for ages during the test, a bunch of testers came over and were all looking at the car and the reader. They asked me to hold it at higher revs for a while and then finally moved on. I asked what was up, and they said they just struggled to get any reading. I asked if it was a problem and he just shrugged. I know my reading was very low, especially low for decats, but nothing was mentioned of it If the car isn't sounding strange and/or you haven't fitted a load of breather mods like cone filters and plenum spacers, it shouldn't be running lean. I'm not sure if the possible faulty sensor could cause it to run lean or not. Have you figured out which one it is yet? You were able to pass an MOT with test pipes? Yea, flawlessly passed emissions.
