    pulleys

    Hi Mate I presume thats gregs old car UR pulleys Quote from manufacturer Unorthodox Racing Ultra Street (Ultra S) lightened under drive crank pulley. Made of lightweight Premium U.S. made 6061-T6 billet aluminum to ensure consistency of the material's strength and balance. Every pulley is inspected multiple times from machining to anodizing to stocking and finally at shipping time. If at any point a pulley does not pass inspection it is pulled from production. An average of 5 to 12 HP and 4 to 8 lbs.-ft. on normally aspirated engines and 8 to 16 HP and 8 to 18 lbs.-ft. on forced induction engines. Higher gains are possible. For example, a Nissan 300ZX twin-turbo saw gains as high as 37 HP and 45 lbs.-ft. on the dyno just buy replacing the stock crank pulley with the Ultra S lighted underdrive crank pulley. Power gains are obtained in two ways. First, and most important, is the weight loss. An average of 2.7 HP is gained from every pound lost off the crank shaft. 85% of our gains are from weight loss. The rest of the gains are from underdriving, which accounts for about 15% of the total gains. Underdriving is not pushed for two main reasons. The main reason is to keep charging systems, air conditioning, power steering, and water pumps moving fast enough for every day driving. Second, not much horsepower is gained from extreme underdriving. In most applications all of the underdriving is done with the crank pulley, not the accessory pulleys. This is done so maximize weight loss can be achieved at the crank where most of the horsepower gains are found. Many Ultra S pulley applications are available in the Ultra Street Sets (Ultra SS) which in most cases include all the accessory pulleys except for the A/C compressor. You can always upgrade to an Ultra SS kit with the purchase of the Ultra A pulleys. Actual product may vary slightly from image.
  2. Ah I see, thought it would be more technical than that V Adjustments make a huge difference I first set them rock hard all corners, on the road seemed fine but on a track handled like a dog, now settings changed and everything seems OK, road 100% better, track errrm need to sort one or two issues then will be the real test .
  3. Sounds good to me spill. Just what I am wanting to hear. On the hunt now for a gunmetal 2nd hand. Sold my car 3 weeks back and am desperate to get back on the road.......in a 350!!! To be fair though I do have 3 cars, but it is possible to manage with a zed and a large family car, it will be a struggle though, it will just mean swapping cars more regularly, which means more miles and IMO when they're over twelve months a forwarding facing seat is OK in a zed as long as the seat is as far back as possible.
  4. +1 Turn in sharper, response and feel better and almost no body roll. Lew, why did you change to the flex?
  5. No problems here mate, 14months and 6year old
  6. OMG I would not have liked to have been in that when it rolled
  7. That's the bit I thought it was once they've given me a price I'll let you know
  8. I'm trying to find a photo to make sure it's he right part, also PM me your mobile # and I'll ring you with the price when I'm there.
  9. Looks like a hockey stick ish, it covers the carpet and clips into the white mounting brackets ?

    Boot Catch

    Just had this accepted under warranty and there are nissan part numbers for the modification on the system BTW ppl also check your wiper blade arms for corrosion this also a known problem Front and Rear
  13. What is it with this site and blue cars I've tried googling 'blue cars' and this forum doesn't come up, are you all psychic Oh welcome BTW
  14. good ploy on sellers behalf though, will certainly drive the prices up and pay the fees twice no upper mounts or springs so quite a lot of work involed to get either fronts or rears ready for everyday use. Mind you if they go cheap would be well worth the hassel
  15. My original dealers told me I had a wheel bearing gone, couldn't do anything till it failed, took it to another dealer for second opinion, both cv joints changed, then changed again by another dealer at my P2 service
  16. Yeah - we had a clubvr4 dyno day there (great fun). A couple of us went down the weekend before to have a look-see and help them set up for the VR4's as they hadn't run them before. They had two Z's in at the time - one getting two hairdryers, and one getting a SC. Great bunch. Agree about that exhaust - 30BHP !!! I was collecting mine on your dyno day then
  17. It was the one where the wheels come off and yes wheels+fudge for both Weren't you @ WRC sometime in May? @ Smokey, that custom exhaust/cats made one hell of a difference
  18. OK I'll start off but give me a chance I had a parents evening to go to Invida true dual, Kentix Plenum and Grounding Kit Invida true dual, Kinetix Plenum and High Flow Cats, Grounding Kit, Vortech Supercharger
  19. Thank you according to this i need 498.75cc
  20. Haven't noticed any difference other than the left hand tool bar is no longer avaliable as standard
  21. My XDA Exec also has had problems with bluetooth, as teddy said the new version helps, have you dropped it? last problem I had was the bluetooth connection kept dropping half way through conversations, basically the motherboard had cracked, according to O2 technical, this can cause serval problems with the bluetooth settings.
  22. Can't stand the noise of a kinetix plenum Thx I was looking at the AAM system having read a few of your past posts about fuel, but not sure whether I'm going to take it much further, I'm in for about £6K to date just on SC so can't decide whether to cut my loses return to stockish park up in the garage and buy a noble or 996
  23. Cheers this may be a short term solution, I've been without the car since March so another couple of weeks shouldn't hurt
  24. If so, it was retracted less than 3mins after arriving, why??
  25. Just had a email to say PM had arrived, clicked on the forum, message came up left hand corner, clicked you have 1 new message, when the PM page displayed there was nothing there Any ideas or can whoever sent me it please send again cheers
