  1. Suit the looks of the wheel colour so well . The Red ones I say on the white 370Z made my mind up on colour Alan That look's great!!! Usually I'm a bit of a child and get things like big red callipers, but on your car the silver matches with the black and darker wheels. Can you tell me what colour, if it's specific, your Rays are? I have a black car and want to get them refurbed in a sort of anthracite/gunmetal colour. Also.... I will accept your wheels and brakes as a " welcome to the forum " gift... gimme me your address and I'll gladly come take them off your car, for free!!! Great bargain for you Hopefully see you at the Beaulieu meet? Have a proper look
  2. Josh, just put your hands in the pockets and dig for that credit card Worked for me

    06 Air BOX

    Does any one have a 06 Air box for sale . Alan
  4. When looking at the BHP from a hub dyno and changing this in to fly BHP I think its around + 30-40 so a 250 HUB BHP would be around 290 FLY BHP . Is this the same for the torque reading ie 250 HUB LB/FT would be around 280 FLY LB/FT . Alan
  5. Hi Flyboy, I'd like one of your airbox conversions if you have any in stock . Regards Alan
  6. I felt it did work but then my engine mounts may have been past there best anyway . Alan
  7. TBH I thought this would just be a very minor mod but after the install the acceleration was better much more than I thought this little mod would do . Alan
  8. No got it from the USA for around £ 20.00 I think . Alan Thanks Alan - was that part of the group buy from 2013 ? If not where did you get it ?
  9. Yes it is getting there just a few more bits to do . Car does drive much better for the parts upgraded / new parts . Alan
  10. My one and for me throttle pick up felt better . More vibrations but nothing that is too much . Alan
  11. I do not see how the 350z could be quicker than the Cayman S More power more torque less weight . Alan
  12. After a few days of beading in the clutch feels very tight and nice and the exhaust noise is a bit more fruity . Alan

  14. Update time Was booked in to Abbey Motorsport for some work to be done . First was a new Exedy clutch and LUK DMF that was fitted and new gear box oil added . Some pic of the old units that have done 92K miles . Old DMF Old Clutch still in ok shape but some of the rivets were getting close . Then as the gearbox was off I had some DC sports S/S manifolds ( headers if you are from the USA ) installed . Old log type manifold with smallish ports and uneven length tubes . New DC Sport S/S equal length manifold Installed . And last to be re mapped on the dyno . I was told that the manifolds would only give a very small gain in power and torque so the gains are about what I was expecting with the bonus of more power and torque on the whole rev range ( + 11 LB/FT at 2300 RPM ) and not moving the power and torque up all at the top of the rev range .

  16. Best colour , best year , and best spec you have there Welcome
  17. Just a small update . Oil and filter change for some 5W-30 . Also installed my Gold Plug Old vs new

  19. Its so nice to read honest posts about a car from owners with out rose tinted glasses . So many times I have read everything from the engine must have a problem , driver skills ever other car must have been mapped anything but that fact that the car was just not as fast as people wanted / thought it was . Alan
  20. I thought this was only good for FI not NA as it will lose power ? Alan
  21. 92K but going to be changed in a few weeks . Alan
  22. This http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/94647-mot-emissions/page__hl__fail
  23. 18mm at the front 14 at the rear I think . Ride is around 10% more firm / harsh but handling / feel is amazing from the 91K old shock / springs . Nice little combo for road use and some track work . Alan
