  1. Good stuff I forgot to ask you, now that we've got a similar set up how are you finding the suspension etc - (I've not started a build thread yet)
  2. E60 M5. But you'd need another £10k for all of the crap the engine will destroy
  3. You can get some carb cleaner from Halfords, spray it near the vacuum lines to see if it's a leak (engine idle will drop/change noticeably). Example: Also, might be worth posting up a photo of your engine bay to see if anyone can spot something.
  4. Cheers man, yeah I happened across that page as well. I posted a message to see if there is any news on being able to trigger the module like the Consult II or III does - cheers for the heads up on this though
  5. Cool to hear about this, saw the Consult III in action last night, my main use for this kind of thing is to trigger the ABS module in my DE. Can it do that ? and, what physical parts did you purchase in order to hook it up ? (one of those Bluetooth diagnostic adapters?)
  6. I promise you the Speciale (Spaz) isn't like that. It's a flipping BEAST !
  7. If you go to carbotech please report back, I've wanted to try them for ages now!
  8. Love the shadow chrome wheels, I'd like to try that with my car I think.
  9. I know it is as I've incrementally installed bits. It's the rose joints, you wouldn't be able to see it, just slightly feel it. Not a major problem for me but something I just happened to notice.
  10. Also worth trying a search like I mentioned as it'll work for any public forum: ex: site:driftworks.com upper camber (or something like that) Build quality seems to be good, adjustments are easy now that various people have pointed out what to do. Camber is quick and easy to adjust yourself if you're going to the track (jack/camber gauge/2 adjustable spanners up to 30mm). The ONLY thing I have noticed (nothing to do with handling) is that there is a slight high frequency vibration in my steering wheel now. It's caused a bit of pins and needles in my right hand when driving on a motorway for 40+ mins. I'm getting the wheel re-trimmed in a thicker leather anyway, so hopefully it'll reduce that feeling.
  11. They've not been out long, iirc less than a year. So I'm not sure you're going to find specifically what you need as a 'proven longevity' type of thing.
  12. I say that because I've been actively talking about it on my thread: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/95727-driftworks-upper-camber-arms/ I don't mean to assume you've not searched but seeing a low post count, most new people can't seem to do it. Don't use the forum search do this: Go to google - copy and paste this for example site:350z-uk.com driftworks
  13. Did you even search ?
  14. They look great, I'm saving the details of them as waaaaay down the line I wouldn't mind another set. GLWS ! p.s What do you think of spacers on the car mate ? (in terms of handling/feel)
  15. Ahhh nooo - I'm back at my Mum's place in Guildford on Saturday (delayed mothers day lunch). Otherwise that would have been perfect. However, I'm only over in Stratford, possible on another day to head over perhaps ?
  16. I just wondered if anyone has bought one (more likely a copy), or has one that can cycle the ABS sensors to purge them ? My only other thought is to just trigger the ABS myself a few times just near the house to get some more trapped air out (yes I'm on a bloody mission ). Obviously I'll do this as safely as possible, the roads are empty there typically. My only concern is doing it that way may introduce upstream air into the ABS unit and make things worse. (not sure)
  17. Just don't confuse it with the C0ck cam.
  18. I agree with Ekona on this, albeit my car is black but that panel pot has lasted me AGES now !
  19. Like WINKJ said, cheapy cctv camera, stealthily installed in case she is being let out by someone...
  20. You might as well flog them on here after you get an OEM set, someone will want them I'd imagine.
  21. Have you got any more photo's of the 'GT style Polyurethane Front Lip for 03-06 DE Pre Facelift' ?
  22. Post up what lenses they are, can probably give a few pointers as to what I'd choose (if it counts for anything! ). I guess it's a case of avoid all speed bumps !
  23. If you can put different lenses on the camera, it's all about the glass (pretty much) Fast lenses (ie low F number: f1 up to f2.8 + an ND filter if in daylight), typically give beautiful depth of field fall off and nice bokeh on highlights. It looks like you've got zero suspension travel at the front How is it ?
  24. Guess they didn't cut you in on "the deal"?? ;-) Haha, as much as I'd love to pop along (trust me I'm dying to see both of these out on track), I can't afford it this month and a delayed mothers day lunch on Sat. (family first and all of that - grumble grumble)
