  1. I concur with this. My V3 doesn't rattle at all, but my car idles around the 1000 mark. There is always belt/pully/gear whine however, as you'd expect. That's good to hear ..... I'm not going to go down this route if it sounds like a bag of spanners when I pull up !! Maybe they changed something on the v3 version then? I need to meet up with someone who's has one and have a listen I think........, I'm with you mate our engine sounds so sweet be a shame to spoil it Ya , I don't mind a whine at idle and obviously more noise when pressing on but if it sounds Broken when I'm at a standstill this would really ruin it for me ..... I hate rattles ! * mission to find a v3 owner close by *
  2. V3 ....... So shouldn't rattle by the sounds of it ....

  4. They use a rotax charger which is very quite in comparison to the vortech style ones...........
  5. I can deal with that sort of noise but a rattle/ chatter which I've heard on vids on youtube just sounds so bad .... Chris- you say that your v3 was alot better ..... Did they change something in them or do you think you just lucky?
  6. Hi all ..... I've been reading into the vortech supercharger systems and come across lots of people saying they rattle/chatter at idle? Is this the case with yours? I've read that you up the idle to 950ish and this goes away.... Is this correct ? Thanks or our help
  7. Oh no ..... I can see the way this is going !! Prob 17-18k ? Plus the cost of stillen 10k = a very nice sports car!!
  8. .... And the head lights would look good if the inners were painted , proper mean looking .... Cheaper than 06+ lights as well
  9. Looks great dude ... And some great photos! Super smooth and classy ... Wheels look great with it too!
  10. Yer about that .......... I want to but not sure if it will be unusable over speed bumps etc she is already low with the body kit - Thinking of Tein springs and uprated ARB's for next year - still thinking about it at the mo. I've got the tein springs and just fitted eibach arb ..... It's a great set up for road use .... Loads more stable at speed and flatter through the corners , but still very compliant on bad roads ....
  11. Thanks They are rota grids 19" 9.5 front 10.5 rear running 255/35 and 285/35 tyres . Both tarmac and cs on here sell them .
  12. Nice ........ But how many sets of wheels do you need in your life , you must have loads of them !!
  13. Looks lovely !! I bet the pics don't do it justice ..... Will have to meet up over Xmas break and have a proper look:)
  14. That's really nice !! I remember you buying that when i was on the forum with my first zed ...... Looked good then .... Looks better now and I think stage 3 will be better still!! With regards the painting of the calliper s , where did you get the paint / decals from .... Really fancy changing the colour of mine !
  15. Always loved these , lower it and spacers
  16. No I haven't but guessing its a dive/ dumping ground !! Much like a few of the Maldives islands that are just used for a rubbish site!
  17. I'm also sat in my pants And thinking of superchergers!!
  18. It's called le canonnier ..... Looks pretty posh ! Considering we are generally campers / back packers anything will be posh:) My sister went to the Maldives for her honey moon ..... Looked amazing but pricey !!
  19. Hello and welcome
  20. I've heard about your landlady, let me know where she's staying and ill avoid !! Couple weeks we leave
  21. I have had a lot of people asking me to do stuff for them so might do some stuff to sell. I have given everything I have made away so far. lol Cheers Paddy! As for another modded car - eventually! I get married in April so will be actively looking after that. I nearly went for a supercharged S2 Exige after selling the Nissan but deep down I really crave something in that next level of amazingness. My pockets aren't quite deep enough for it just now though! I should of saved all that money I spunked on the zed! haha Bodyboarder - I am increasingly as you describe - love a good bit of wood :lol: ! A wooden pallet makes me weak at the knees. I know it's crazy man ...... It's something about wood and men .... It's addictive . Every time I take a nice ash / beech/ oak down I thinks... Phooor that's gonna burn lovely on my wood burner ! When I put a log on the fire I even can remember where I cut it down from and it's been seasoning for 2 years!! I'm crazy
  22. Suzuki jlx wide boy ,.... And i actually owned it !! The most gay thing I've ever owned .... Luckily I crashed it
  23. Can't wait ..... Booked a surprise for my wife for your 10 year anniversary ( 17 together !!) my mums looking after our son for the holiday and I just can't wait to go and spend some quality time with my better half !!! Anybody been? Where's best to go on the island to visit ? Wanted to go to the Maldives but this would have eaten into my supercharger fund ...... And my love does have limits !! Can't wait
  24. That's great ! Being a tree surgeon and working with wood every day ( oo er) I love the stuff !! Love to burn it , feel it , make things ... Hug it ..... Anyway .... Some great ideas there .... Looks lovely
