  1. Sounds like its dumping it before it gets to the nozzles. Try tracing the leak under the hood and see if you can find any damage to the washer fluid hose or if it has jumped off a connection somewhere along the way.
  2. Yea sir he sent the request in for it and the swedish "dvla" approved it
  3. Thanks guys! Its 1 1 I 1 I 1 So the cops wont be able to see if its "I" or "1"
  4. Friends LP560 and my 350Z Here they are, love birds. Coming this summer: 350ghini Note the reg number to confuse cameras/cops
  5. Then, than. That pisses me off as well.

  7. I have 3 in mine :/ two in the center console and one where the glovebox sits in other cars. I have a USDM though so it may differ from the UK Zed. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD You have the wee fitting that goes into where the Bluetooth dongle thing is? So I assume you don't have Bluetooth hands free then? I do have BT since its fitted with an Alpine HU But from factory, no. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD
  8. If you read the link carefully you would notice that they had a small disclaimer noting they did the dyno run for the CAI with front bumper off and fans blowing at the front of the vehicle. I would love to see some numbers with the bumper in place. Still, I believe the stock air box is the better of all 3 since CAI increases the intake piping, thus dropping the intake pressure.

  10. I guess wls350's experience is consistent with what others have reported regarding short ram intakes. Ill stick with aftermarket drop-in filters in the stock box for now
  11. "Heat Soak" seems to be very much overrated on this forum. I've had 5 or 6 different air filter styles other than standard across my 3 years of Z ownership, everything from an uprated panel filter (K&N) to at least 4 different types of cone filter (Japspeed cone[for about 2 weeks, don't murder me! ], BMC CDA, HKS Mushroom filter and an Apexi Cone) have I noticed any difference in any of them other than noise? Not really. Has heat soak been a huge engine killing problem? Haven't had any issues, not even at track days on hot summer afternoons. Personally I'd rather have good filtering than .5 of a horsepower extra. What about dyno tests that show stock air filter box yields more power than the short ram air intakes? I'm just curious, read a few threads about this on the yank forums. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD
  12. Too bad I just dropped a Pipercross filter in the stock system, going to have to try the Apexi cone air filter at some point. Only thing worrying me is the "fact" that people say you will decrease performance due to heat soak. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

  14. I can't wait for the snow to melt properly so I can drive the Zed. They salt the roads here in Sweden so I don't dare take it out when it's snowy. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD
  15. Is there a throttle limiter in the first few gears of the 5AT gearbox as well? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD no but we remap the max torque require to make the gear change a little more urgent and precise on the Auto's. Good to know! That combined with the TransGo shift kit should make a pretty big difference. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

  17. Nice save, could have ended up with a not-so-nice hood ornament Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD

    Spare Key

    Hey Scott, I believe you can buy a spare remote from eGay and program it doing some sort of rain-dance with the key/pedals/door something etc. Do a search and see if you find the specifics of programing the remote. Make sure you buy a remote with the electronic internals if going the eGay route! Some of them are just the shell. Good luck!

  20. My lady actually likes cars. She loves going fast and understands the passion and interest I have for cars. She even bought me a clay bar kit about a week ago!
  21. I spread those 10 minutes out over the remaining 1hr 50 to make it look as if I was listening. Nodded once in a while and said "yes" occasionally...I think I even chuckled a few times and caught myself doing it at the wrong moment.
