  1. Hi. Welcome from Chepstow/Forrest of Dean.

    Pre UpRev mods

    ooh thanks, i was tempted with with new pulleys, but mainly cause mine where rusty! lol ive already done the redundant idler pulley removal. I'm away with work this week, but i'll get a picture of the exhaust this weekend. nik
  3. Dont think it really matters with the handbrake ones. For the main pads i use genuine Brembo ones, they fit perfectly and seem to perform well.
  4. Really nice to see the progress. Im just starting mine! Quick question, does the door still work on tbe dash to cover the android head unit? Im considering something similar. Thanks Nik

    Pre UpRev mods

    Thanks, yeah im avoiding cat changes! If i can get the basics done pre tune, ill probably leave it there in terms of engine mods. Should have mentioned, full service done. First thing i always do. Years of racing bikes has me dropping oil and plugs probably a bit more often than needed!

    Pre UpRev mods

    From all the searching ive done the general concensus is that even with those mods the tune would be "worth it" and noticeable, but also happy to hear comments on if you think its a good idea. 👍
  7. Hi So been foing some work to the z, snd its passed its MOT (yey). Im thinking about going for the UpRev tuning, probably through Horsham Developments. Now its an old car (2004 DE) so not looking to overstress it or to try and get some crazy hp, but faster throttle response etc would be nice. Just a general tune really. Engine mods so far are: Cat back exhaust (no idea what make) 5/16 plenum spacer Velocity stack on oem airbox (basically a diy version of the later air box) Panel filter Are there any other "basic" mods youd recommend/worth doing before the UpRev tune? Let me know Thanks Nik
  8. That looks way more likely!
  9. Dont know how accurate this is: https://www.carlogbook.co.uk/nissan/350z/#:~:text=These stats won't show,UK vehicles are NISSAN 350Z. But wow!
  10. Hi all. Took a punt on a set if these as they were only £23 in plain black. JINGLINGKJ Hood Struts for 350Z Fairlady Z Z33 2003-2008 Front Bonnet Gas Dampers Lift Supports Modify No Drilling TWO YEARS WARRANTY https://amzn.eu/d/8LgJtzd Gotta say, well impressed. Fitted in minutes, reasonable quality, and bonkers cheap. Plain black looks OEM too. Anyone thinking of putting bonnet struts on, i definitely recommend so much easier when checking things, filling fluids etc. Nik
  11. Yey!! MOT passed. Onto the bodywork...
  12. Thanks, I'm based in the Forrest of Dean. I'll have a look at meets definitely. I used to love going to them back in the day. I used to be a member and moderator sor SOX about 20 years ago! Even did japfest with my old CRX!
  13. Thinking of refurbing the wheels in a satin black, black door handles and badges. And trying to decide if revup tune is worth it. Just ordered a throttle controller (i know they dont 'do' anything but i want it for the eco mode only) Nik
