Are you scared that if you come you'll be driving behind me when I suddenly brake from 70 mph for a 120 degree left turn?

Dead decayed compressed animals and a roof over my head.

Happy to convoy up with you Jordan, given our proximity of dyno slots. Depends what time you're heading up there. I'm aiming for 10 - 10:30 AM.

My air con smells like weed ever since Abbey did my P2 service... no idea how/why. Day of service pulled up to pick a friend up... and could smell it coming off my car from inside. Had to assure him I'd been doing nothing of the sort!

God help you all. DEAFENED YOU SHALL BE.

Why not? Power is there from the internal light fixture . Pete, how about you take the plunge and import one and let me know how it goes? I for one have had enough of people driving with fog lights without any fog!

Haven't seen this anywhere? I know you can pickup 350Z autodim mirrors, one of my big hates is the car not having one. Has anyone on here successfully bought a US autodim mirror and fitted to a UK or JDM 350z?

ADD NAME TO THIS!!! http://www.350z-uk.c...abbey-open-day/ Thrifty Fifty already had BTW. At 6ish. I'm incredibly efficient . I'm just going to get kicks dynoing the car in a closed room with the K1 on... good luck spectators
-
I'll come, and up for a dyno run if there are still slots. Be interesting to see why my Zed is so thirsty compared to everyone elses!
-
I agree the K1 sounds amazing! But... if you are using it to travel to work/motorway it is not ideal due to the constant humming. If it's a special treat car like mine, it's well worth it! Turns so many heads for the wrong/right reasons it makes you feel quite good

I had my bungs out yesterday... was bloody stupid. On the upside I stuck them in a bench drill with wire bit and now they're all shiny. My K1 fitment was also problematic on a JDM. 1. Had to shave off part of my DIFF, it was just a casing tag so nothing critical. 2. It was resting on my crash bar so it's been spaced off Other than that it's all good!
-
Or just go nuts and grab a can of EXO then coat the entire car in it
-
Removed the bungs from the Japspeed K1... and suddenly realised everyone in the local area now hates me.
-
I went to halfrauds, picked up some AutoGlym Metal Polish... have to say it works really well. About £6 for a tube.
-
I would be worried if you could mix those up, on the upside you'd have no windows for rain to stick to.

Well I do about 60 miles lowest on half a tank... so works out at that. That said the tank readout could be messed up.
-
I think my fuel indicator must be fubar then, because I'm running 8-12 MPG in an unmodified 06 JDM auto.

Smudge's Tree Fiddy - updates 06/05/13
ThriftyFifty replied to smudgedon's topic in Member Build Projects
Unfortunately his old K1 has gone onto a zed in his area... so the local residents won't get peace and quiet . Sounds like an expensive month Smudge! If I end up keeping mine I think I'll do an uprev, having the limiter there is annoying... not that I ever hit it. -
How the f... Mine is stuck on something I don't want to say...

Modifications that can be done on a budget?
ThriftyFifty replied to oasisniall's topic in 350Z Modifications
Buy a Japspeed K1, it's probably one of the most modest exhausts in loudness and isn't too intrusive. When you're wearing headphones. -
Morrissons car park Sutton?

I did get my own back the other day, some kid was in a Civic 4G (i think) and had some mods and exhaust done to it. He flew past me and I let it go, but when alongside him burst into laughter at his car and made him feel like a fool. And then I saw an empty lane at the lights... and well I never saw him again.
