maybe i'm just too old and prefer something more subtle Have you heard the Invidia system? Not in your face or OTT. Nice and quite grumble at lower RPM, comes alive after 2.5K-3K rpm and doesn't drone one bit. Really brings out the V6 sound nicely imo. in all honesty no but i look foreward to it now Would love to show you if you lived closer. My days of some mental, stupidly loud exhaust deafening me and everyone around are long gone. Used to have an Impreza that had a very loud exhaust system, ...so loud in fact the dog at home would start barking about 3 minutes before I got home as he could hear me about a mile away from home driving behind my house. Much prefer something more subtle nowadays but still with a nice sound especially if I decide to put my foot down a little & go up the rev range.

Welcome aboard. Zeds for sale on here can be found here; http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/51-zeds-for-sale/

Have a look in the "for sale" area as you may find a good used gear knob and kick plates from someone who has changed them for after market parts. The interior parts you could try to get again second hand parts in better condition than yours or paint them (plasti paint) or have them hydro dipped as I have on my 350Z. Link to my thread about that here; http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/86048-hydro-dipped-interior-parts-door-pulls-grab-handle/ Wrong section btw nissanjuke.

I agree with Kyle ~ my 350 sounds much better with my after market Invidia exhaust system then it ever did with the standard Nissan system.

Lovely looking car.

Sh*t.

+1.

more stupid than you Even me.

There will always be something faster than what your driving and always someone harder than you, ...I learnt that growing up. Oh and there is definitely always someone stupider than you.

Lol. Just ignore the fools.

Yep, then a McLaren, then a Bugatti, then a jet powered car followed by some type of rocket ship I'd imagine.

Bummer if your not pleased then. Do you want to share what power level you got then? Sorry just nosey.

Sorry you're disappointed but it isn't like when you get turbo cars mapped unfortunately ~ it's not going to give you a massive push back in the seat, just more linear power throughout the rev range, better response in the first few gears (maybe not enough for you to notice on your Zed) and of course a better top end with the limiter taken off. At least you know your Zed is running correctly now (fueling/ignition etc) with the mods you have done. What power did you get btw?

Don't think I've owned a car yet that I haven't thought that about...

I'd bet at least 95% of people wouldn't know the difference between real carbon fibre and a dipped version anyway.

What mods have you got ZEUS? Have you tried any hard starts in first gear yet?

Pmsl. Particularly liked number 11.

Very funny.

Have a look in this thread I've linked Scott as there is a great PDF file in it for doing the handbrake shoes and adjustment. Link: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/86996-hand-brake/ Hope it helps and good luck with it.

It is Dicky ~ hate to think of all the people these type of people fleece at their garages. Even Quick Fit tried a con on my 60 something year old mother once ~ told her she needed new front discs & pads on her Renault Megane after a free brake test they offered whilst getting new tyres. She told me when she came home so I had a look and told her there was loads of life left in both. Her favoured local independent garage told her the same thing that I had said so luckily she dodged the con men there.

Another great episode. Keep them coming thanks 350 Russ.

What a robbing bullsh**ting git. When my Subaru engine went bang for the second time the sh*t engine builder I had unfortunately used tried to tell me that the reason the con rod had snapped and gone through the block was because the petrol station I had used (Shell ~ Vpower unleaded fuel) had water in it's fuel ~ water doesn't compress he told me which is why the conrod bent & snapped. Obviously just trying to pass the blame onto Shell as really the cause was because he had fitted inferior parts not capable of handling the power the car was running.

I haven't had a flash from anyone yet......... I'd flash you if you like. Just pop over to Cardiff.
