On a budget i would op for a pair of Nexen N8000 http://www.oponeo.co.uk/tyre-details/nexen-n8000-225-45-r18-95-y-xl/?origin=prodlisting&gclid=CLixpLLD_84CFfUV0wodaz8KTQ

If the gauge moves when you turn the ignition on, the sensor needs replacing as first action.

Was you there last yr parked to a GM 350z?

Me & my mate will be there with JAPmodified

Genuinely stunning well looked after 350z and nice guy also, love this motor

Coming along rapidly pal, loving everything and that small cars effect is class haha

It's sandwiched between the bumper and the engine under tray also then by design clipped into place

odd that it can even be put on wrong..........

does the flywheel have a tooth missing by design? now for the garage, how would they know in what position to refit the new flywheel?

yes pal, looks good

Looks a really tidy example, GLWS

Sterling work!! Lots of preventative maintenance going on, cars looking in great shape. Sound clip of the exhaust?

Why did you replace the OE radiator out of interest? Awful to see the key'd side, tramps who did it such a poor place in their lives right now.

As on FB, GLWS stunning example

I think there's meant to be plastic covers over those areas

Before application I clay mitt the glass

Looks mega pal!!

ello n welkom, stick around

yeeeeeeehh good thread matey, i think the car looks fab!!! sorry i asked if the wheels were Rota's eek lol David

Issue we come across with supermarket fuels is that its bought in bulk during the cheaper periods and then sold thoughout the year. Not a mssive issue for most but winter fuel comes with more additive but can be more expensive to buy initially. Summer fuel sold during the winter can cause breakdowns.

What method do you use to generate a vehicles bhp? I still feel bhp is a better measure than whp: I understand that you use a coast down test to determine flywheel power. Why, when wheel power is what makes you go? The problem with measuring wheel power only, is that many factors can affect the wheel power output - tyre design, temperature and pressure, wheel alignments, gear box oil, viscosity temperature and level, wheel speed, final drive ratios etc. As an example; take two very similar cars with similar modifications, both are tested on a 'wheel horse power only' dyno, Car A has 12hp more at the wheels than Car B. The owner of Car B and the dyno operator begin looking for problems with the turbo chargers, ECU calibrations, CAM timing etc. If the test had been carried out on the Dastek Dyno, the coast down test would have revealed the transmission loss would have appeared excessively high, thus taking the focus away from the engine fault and pointing us in the direction if the drive line problem. The fault was in fact a partially seized brake caliper, which was converting the power into heat.

i think the correction factor has its part to play
