Smooth the skirt lines and the badge, you know you want to Cabon bottom halves of the skirts would look awesome, but I think the wrap would be too prone to being caught on stuff with an exposed edge that isnt wrapped around/under an edge.

Which one? Blue one or red one

I want one Admittedly the message scrolling is chav, but would be good to have something similar that offers fog and reverse light

Those crazy guys from the other side of the pond got bored and found a use for the foglight hole http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3-WOTFXfGD8 Would be good in this country if you could have it as a reverse light as well as fog

And you still had some smilies left

Very nice James, will be looking good for this season When I looked into getting the Nismo sides, Phil said they were no lower than stock, so you should be fine with clearance on them. As for the line, I think it would look good with it deleted, or maybe paint below the line black and above it colour matched to the car, I've seen that before and it looks good. But smoothed would definately look good. Still not sure on clearcoating the roof. I think it would be a lot of effort to get it deep enough to flat back to give a glass like finish. Maybe get the shop to try it on a small piece if you can get hold of some to see how much effort it is and if it will even work.

Very nice

Wont be the normal tyre feathering issue, that was down to the RE040 tread rather than the car. More than likely the tracking/geometry is out, so you are doing the right thing getting it looked at. Nowt wrong with the Falkens, not the best tyre in the world, but great for what they cost. Tyrewall is a bit squishy, but adding a PSI or 2 can help that. Not particularly good in the wet either, but by no means are the RE040s

There are many stories out there. First everyone thought they would be functional but then they appeared to be blanked off, but on closer inspection, theres actually a blanking plate behind each fang, which means you can attach cold air feeds, either for the brakes or the air intakes. No one knows if Nissan meant them to be for the brakes or the intake, but my guess is for the brakes when it come to race car setups

That would mean I could use two foamlances at one and get the job done even quicker!!!! Could do wax on wax off in one pass, rofl Thats the plan, my car is filthy so I better get on making the clone

The wrap does look very good having seen it not long ago. I think Colin might start duffing me up for copying him soon.

Especially if the quick stops on the motorway were to a stop. That could have got them hot enough to deposit uneven pad material on the disc I get the same thing, lots of motorway driving means pads and discs last a long time, but can make it more prone that if you do one hard stop, it deposits pad material.

I think they are the ones on their site Supprised no-one has done a good writeup of them on the370z.com. Maybe that means that its a given thats its good quality?

Crawley Down Nissan have a Universal Silver roadster as a demo Chris Very nice. So much for all the demos being red! Could it be Nissan cant make their mind up again?

So, should I put a stock airbox on for the run? depends on what you want. jwt = more noise, a small performance drop stock airbox with performance filter element = a couple more bhp but less induction noise. Yeah I was just messing, the drop in HP is tiny. I think on Andys car it was like 2HP or something top end. TBH I'm not conviced that on the road it makes any difference at all as I have seen very similar IATs with the popcharger and stock airbox. On the dyno though, the popcharger definately gets heatsoaked a bit. Sure Mark will keep an eye on IATs

+1 - usually pad deposit. Do the break in procedure again and twice if needed and it should sort it. If its really bad (you can see a pad imprint on the disc) then it might need further break in procedures done. Let it fully cool between each run though, dont want to cook it.

I've been looking into Evo-R stuff, but never had any of their carbon before. Whats the quality like? I havent seen any proper upclose HiRes pics of their stuff for the 370z yet, but from a distance it does look good. Shame you have to drill the rear bumper to fit the diffuser, sure they could have done something to fix it around the foglight.

If its brand new out the box, it should be pre oiled Jerry (maybe worth checking with your supplier). Dont be supprised when Mark tells you to make better gains you have to use the OEM airbox

Mostly German cars Read DetailingWorld forums and see which ones they bitch about being hard to detail because of rock solid paint. VAG cars, proper super cars have hard thick paint quite often. Jap cars are mostly crappy for paint, but you just learn to live with it. Problem these days is they can apply the paint so thin and its water based, just doesnt make for durable finishes. Ironically, in all this "save the planet" BS and using less paint and water based, you actually do more damange as people like Chips Away have to fix it with oil based paints, and as its applied by hand, use more

Its a heat thing for sure. On the Evo forums (MLR) you're not a man until you have managed to fade the text :lol I'd speak to ZMANALEX and see what he says, for sure he will know what is going on and what can be done to fix it. What PF discs are you running? Are they 2 piece? 2 piece should keep the temps down

Well I got my hands on this yesterday, unfortunately no pics of it, I forgot the camera in the excitement I would say its infinately better than the old satnav and well worth the upgrade if you can get it (ie if you are deciding between a MY2009 and MY2010) if you want satnav. The screen is much clearer, it does postcodes, it has TMC with optional redirection (you chose the route from multiple options), it hooks up to ipod, has component in (for video, or Camp2 ). Shows you info about the car (inside temp, and others). You can look at weather and current traffic info. Loads more, I forget now, but a definate worthwhile investment New roadster also looks very nice. They had a red one at WLMG, which as it turns out is the same colour that all dealers are getting the roadster in for demos apparently. Looks pretty good, if we had better weather around here I might have plumped for one.

If it doesn't drop then when you shut the door the glass can hit against the frame and smash Never known it to actually smash, have their been any cases of it happening? I've had mine clip it once before, that was enough

Quite cool Stew, similar to how I did my avatar pic and entry to the calendar last year, but I did it in photoshop. You just blur the background a bit and it makes the objects appear much smaller

He speaks the truth You get used to it with Nissans crappy paint
