  1. Hi all

     

    Does anyone else notice a very annoying high pitch tone when the car is on? I've tried to locate it but i can't. It seems to come in from my left ear so I thought it was the navigation system but I've turned that screen off. Or I thought it was the fuel pump but this tone is like a dog whistle type tone!

     

    Anyways please advise if anyone else has experienced this. I for jay to sit in my car and he also noticed it lol

  2. I've been told that mid silencers tend to attenuate the higher frequencies so will make the exhaust note raspier. is this your experience? I'm considering taking out my mid silencers and maybe a berks hfc. how much did you pay to get your silencer chopped out?

    thanks

     

    p.s a video would be much appreciated. as you said the stock note is good- just too quiet. i feel we need some videos of stock with HFC, stock with delete back box and stock without mid silencer to add to the library of videos. just means people have an option not to spend £1000 on an exhaust!

    as for uploading it, use the tapatalk app- you can upload v easily in that :)

  3. Hey,

    see the video you have put up, how does the actual sound compare in real life? is it much louder, is it deeper, raspier etc. a lot of the noise we hear on a vid is dependent on the mic pick up. that video doesn't seem too loud but my brains telling me its loud as hell since you only have mid silencers!

     

    once thing I've been advised is to remove mid silencer and get a berks hfc and leave stock back box. so many options!

  4. Hey

    I noticed a few years ago scottsoulby arranged a group but on cf covers for the b pillars? I can't see him in anymore but they were £40 for both. Much cheaper than other places.

     

    Does anyone know where he got them from and what was the quality like? Ideally this qu should go in the general discussion since a lot of the 350z owners bought them but I can't seem to post there for some reason?

     

    Thanks

  5. Great.

     

    Can I run narrower rubber? Better for winter and also tyres are cheaper in 265:35/19 instead if 275/35/19. I'm 7mm smaller on diameter.

    If I get 265 on rear do I need to get one size smaller on front also? Stock fronts are 245/40/19 and 236/35/19 are 8mm shorter on diameter so more In line with the rear height

  6. lol

    Hensh have you wrapped your front in clear wrap yet?

    I spoke with rt performance and he said expect to respray and full your amuse every year because it's made of fiberglass! Wtf. Not looking forward to the cost of that. I want to put some helicopter tape on the leading edge if I get this kit. Stone chips are okay but pieces if fiberglass flying off when cracked are definitely not okay!

  7. Cool. I don't like overhang at all so may try the 20mm first.

    Guys in America are running 15mm on the front. How are they managing that??

    I think 15 front and 20mm back would be ideal to make it flush. Think 25 front will be a lot since the rear looks more recessed as stock than the front

  8. Hey

    Anyone use their car in the winter? How is it? I've come from only driving fwd cars and usually I get winter tyres on.

    Th 370z will probably become a daily driver and I'm thinking nows the best time to get winter tyres.

     

    So do you use your car in winter and what tyres do you use?

     

    Thanks
