  1. Afternoon guys I'm in the position to get an exhaust, I like the scorpion sound but hate the tips. I've looked on YouTube for the cobras they look good but sound abit farty/raspy, would that be because it's non resonated? Basically I can't find any sound clips or reviews on the resonated one. If anyone can put up a link with sound and looks of a resonated one is be most grateful Cheers Arran
  2. As discussed in pm mate il be taking one of these at the end of the month. Seems spot on imo
  3. Yeah il be doing all that aswell, if it contributes to it then il buy one before my uprev next month
  4. Do these make a noticeable difference then?
  5. Hmmm okay maybe not such a good idea to do them if there's a chance of that happening, could mess with the crank. There has always been speculation over them even over in the BMW scene
  6. Yeah thought that was the gear change light, but a mate thought it was a limiter Don't think they need to rev high tbh although it's a wonderful noise
  7. Evening all Was wondering earlier what's the safe rev limit of our cars, I'm not one for revving high anyway as mine is set to 6200 on the display but it goes to 8000 as the limit? Surely this can't be right or safe? Just curious that's all Cheers Arran
  8. Cheers guys, well I do have a couple hundred spare but that was going to go on the h Dev stage 1 pack and uprev next month so would rather do that first I think but the AMS do sound good, if I have enough next month I will possibly get them
  9. The pulleys wernt a mod that I'd go out the way to do but thought may aswell do it whilst belt are off but if japspeed ones are no go then so be it, won't be spending around 200 on something that doesn't make to much of a difference. Maybe if a second hand set of ams came up at the right price then yeah I'd do it but for now il leave it I shall see some of you Thursday yeah
  10. Ok so it's a mixed review on wether to get them, where can I find AMS ones? Seems to be America only? If they cost a small fortune then il use the money for a Scorpion You guys carry on with the handbags all advice is taken on board aswell Would be nice to have them but this car isnt going to be a money pit like the last one
  11. Fair enough mate, there goes that idea il be getting the Horsham stage 1 pack at the end of the month which has the spacer in it as you know. Then it will be uprev time was just thinking maybe the pulleys would be worthwhile especially of combined with the rest of the mods.
  12. Morning guys Got some spare cash after ordering the bits that need doing and I was thinking whilst the auxiliary belts are being done is it worthwhile getting a set of lightweight/underdrive pulleys, japspeed sell them at 99 quid, haven't searched to see if anyone else sells them. Just seeing if any of you guys have them or any experience of them? Cheers guys Arran
  13. Whoops but yeah thats my new transport lol
  14. That's me mate, I saw you aswell lol. Who's vik? Did he rag it lol
  15. Alright guys Tried the search function but to no avail, once the beast has had its minor work required il be looking into tuning it a little bit, the horsham development kit looks pretty good and certainly not a bad price Here is said kit http://www.h-dev.co.uk/product_info.php ... s_id=25356 Has anyone got one of these on their car? If so how is fitment etc of everything, i know you have to get an uprev map after though, is there a noticeable difference with all that on especially since the limiter is removed from 1st to 3rd gear with the map? Thanks all Arran
  16. Pro s titan race it is Cheers guys, wonder why nissan give out semi synth though? surely cant be right
  17. I've seen on opie they do some 5w30 pro S Titan race, looks pretty good tbh. I know the M3 boys rave about it
  18. Afternoon fellas Just been to Nissan for oil filter, sump washer and a couple of small bits (excellent service by sharik at Croydon by the way) and I asked for some oil aswell, he came out with the 5w30 but it was only semi synthetic so I left it. What oil do you guys use?
  19. Chaps I've seen on some people's cars here a boot divider that sits vertical inbetween the strut brace and floor, where can I source one of these as I would be pretty handy. I imagine Nissan sells them at silly money! Any help would be much appreciated Cheers Arran
  20. Wonder how much his are, Nissan want 60 each!
  21. Morning all I'm after a pair of excellent condition (no paint flake or bubbling) front wiper arms for my Z, I anyone has any or knows of any can you let me know Cheers guys Arran
  22. Thanks guys, just working out how to take off the gearknob to see if my short shift gearknob from my BMW fits it, hope it does. Im from Epsom mate, i see your sig is blatently valley park think ive seen yours about, looks lovely fella Are the drive belts hard to change?
  23. I know you boys will know what to look for so il wait for your verdicts on Saturday, it has a tracker but it's not activated yet don't know wether to do it or not really
  24. Cheers all, yeah certainly feels good to be in one, didn't take me long to find one lol. The service history is excellent everything has been done before or on time! Plans for it already are Give it a full detail Get a pin dent out of the drivers door Get the wheels powder coated a light anthracite Replace both belts and do an oil change Then once its checked out and given a clean bill of health il be buying A scorpion exhaust Horsham development stage 1 kit Uprev remap Clear rear and front reflectors Led facelift rear lights, change bulbs in headlights to 6k And putting my private plate on it Job done
  25. Yeah il be there Saturday with it, ive noticed and read about it about the thrust bearing chattering slightly on idle, mine does it a little it's intermittent but goes with the clutch pedal pressed down, it doesn't slip and the pedal is mid way so the clutch is good. Is it normal like every other Z or will work need doing?
