Hey I'm considering getting an uprev on the zed. I was wondering if it's possible to program a little overrun on the map to get the noise like the F type has? Has anyone done this? How has it been? Any issues with O2 sensors being fouled or have you fitted O2 sensor spacers? Also for the 5 maps I was considering 1. Sport max with overrun 2. Sport mode 3. 95 Ron mode (proper map made on 95 Ron petrol) 4. Valet mode and limit revs to 2k 5. Blank What are your thoughts. Anyone else done something similar? Anyone else have a proper 95 Ron map and not just a limp mode map? Finally what gains will I see if I just have Berks hfc? There seem to be mixed reviews about intakes so I will just leave them Standard I think. Anyone notice an exhaust more change after the uprev? I've heard a few say it tones the exhaust down a bit?

That connector is useless anyways. I bought two and the both broke. Only solution is to buy a connector from Maplin and wire it in. Search in the forums. Works really well Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Looks fab when on and in the flesh! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I've got this lip with the cf fang cover and it looks great. Can recommend it highly Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Any prices? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Awesome thanks for the response Hmm okay maybe I need to increase the number of days then. I don't want to drive forever though! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hey The wife and I want to take the zed for a drive to Europe. I've never been for a drive to Europe and I'm looking for recommendations. Thinking no longer than about 4-5 days. Would prefer to take the ferry over from Newcastle since it's fun but I'm not sure if the lowered zed will have any problems getting on. Anyone else taken their zed onto a very before? I would love to do a scenic route with tourist activities so thinking maybe heading towards Monaco and the amalfi Coast? Cheers Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I made a 850 mile round trip to Marcus! His work was good. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

i would be interested in this. how much of the exhaust does it cover? i have issues with my exhaust scraing and i risk pulling the flanges. so i would rather scrape this than my exhaust. any fitted pics to a 370z would be great

Why not just keep them and run winter wheels? Night and day difference mate. That's what I'm doing with my setup Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

If you want to reduce rasp don't take out the mid silencers. You need a different back box. The rasp is caused by removing restrictions further upstream. I personally like the rasp. Sounds like a jap car. Plenty of people go for the low rumbles which I tend to leave to the scooby and corsa lovers lol But I wouldn't recommend removing the mid silencer if you don't was a metallic rasp note Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

They will do at the end of July. I'm considering getting 19 fronts and 20 tears lol suoercar style. Not been done before though even in the states Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I'm considering whether I should hold out for the 19s mate. Or get tyres which are not as high on the sidewalks but I fear ride quality will be compromised. How's it been for you with the 20s over the 19s? Notice a difference? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hey mate. Do you get any rubbing on the front? Maybe when cornering or has it been okay? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Looks ace mate. Well done! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Looks the shiz! Any more pics bud? As you know I'm considering the wheels too so would be interested to know how the 9j's are in comparison. Cheers Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Good duff Daniel. Sure the car will look amazing once your finished (if modding ever had a finish!) Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ditto How did the fitting of springs go? Any rubbing issues? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Would love the 20s but I think my brain is now saying get the 19s since I already have 2 tyres for them. So a qu about figment, all of the 19inch wheels come in 8.5j or 9.5j. Since the zed stock is 9j and 10j what size should I go for? I would like to aim to keep the rolling radius the same on the fronts and the same or larger on the rear to close the arch gap a little. Stock tyres are 240/40/19 and 275/35/19. Can I run these on the 8.5 and 9.5 respectively? Or should I run s square setup? Not sure if it may mess up dynamics of the car Thanks Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Cool, I would like this thread to not become one of winter tyres vs non winter tyres. Each to their own. Would like to bring it back on topic and ask if anyone has the wheels I've mentioned above? Not sure if people have any rubbing issues on 20" alloys when lowered on eibachs Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hey mate. Having tried with and without it is night and day difference. It's not snow tyres. It's winter tyres which means they work better than Sumer when temp is lower than 7 degrees and that's for 7 months of the year. Michelin actually advise that in the UK if you have to select one tyre to run all year round run a winter instead of summer. Less of a compromise and I have to agree. I've ran my Celica with winter tyres for 2 years and it's nothing short of amazing. I done a trip up to the highlands in the rwd zed in December. The grip was unbelievable. Anyways hope that supports my reason for wanting to run 2 sets of tyres 19s would be ideal bud. Just seems to be that I won't get the best style and concave look I'm after unless I get 20s Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Hey all So I've got winter tyres on the zed at the moment and I desperately need to change the tyres to summer (have 19" fronts. Needs to buy new rears) so either I can go for 19inch wheels or 20inch. My car is lowered with 25mm spacers all around. If I go with 19", I only need to buy two new rear tyres. If I opt for 20" then I need 4 new tyres and I need to sell my 19" front summer tyres. Onto the alloys: So I thought it would be a good idea to run a second set of wheels and ideally wanted the Japan racing JR11. They look good BUT they only come with multi hole pattern to fit all cars. I've never been a fan of that look. It looks a bit cheap...because the wheels are! Next up are rohana's RC10 or RC7. Leaning more towards the 10 though. They are double the price of JR but most importantly I think the 19 inch ones don't have much concave At all. It only starts on the 20inch and as explained above the 20s need more tyres and also I will loose 0.5 inch on sidewall height. Here are the rohana on 19inch: Here are the rohanas on 20" Big difference you can see. Not sure if it's just the angle but the 19s don't look very aggressive Here are the rc7. More OEM looking but again these are 20inch Last choice is Judd wheels. They are better priced than the rohanas. The 311 ONLY comes in 20" : Or they do offer the 202s in 19 inch which are a lot less concave but look more OEM. In a good way I think: So I have a few options: 1. Put summer tyres onto the existing alloys. That costs £120 a year (60 per change) plus 2 cars to go to the garage since the tyres won't fit in the zed 2. Get the jr 11 or Jude 202 and use existing front 19" and buy rear tyres. Drawback of jr is multi hole alloys and for the 202 is lack of concave 3. Get the rohana rc10,rc7 or judd 311 in 20inch. Buy new tyres and hope they fit in a lowered zed. And hope ride quality ain't too bad. sorry for the long post but I'm interested to know what other people have done who are running winter tyres, and from anyone who has the above wheels mentioned and the sizes they went for. Of course general comments are much welcomed too! If you were in my shoes what would you do? Regards Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Just got the carbon signal spoiler fitted. Think it looks great. Completes the car I think Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I find v power is around 6p more expensive than Esso's 97 premium range so I would prefer to use Esso's now tbh. I've been loyal enough to v power but it's s bit of a joke their price I mean. Tesco doesn't give me good mpg. They add in a lot of ethanol to up the octane rating so it's not the same as other 99 Ron fuels. It's like putting in 95 with an octane booster Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I've been looking for a set of the second ones or vossens but judd are better prices. I'm wanting the 19". Think 20 will be too big esp since my zed is lowered Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
