Where abouts in Berkshire are you mate? If Fleet isnt too far away from you, look up TGM Sport. Tom and the team are very helpful and good guys. Get them to let you know what you need and order it from CS (pads and discs), and order the tyres straight to them from Camskills. Tell them we sent you and they'll look after you. Far far cheaper than Nissan. Remember to take cash
The front arches must also be steel as mine had a rusty stone chip by the headlights. Also the bonnet although being Alu must be able to oxidise or something as mine is bubbling along the front where a few stone chips have got it
If it was rust, you would easily be able to see where the paint is broken after you used T-cut (but please dont use it again!). If the paint surface isnt obviously broken, then it must be a contaminant on the paint in which case a clay should shift it
Thats good to know chaps, I've been asking that for ages! Didnt want to make a trip to one of you to find we can only dump the ECU and not map it there and then. At least if I knew I could only dump it, I can prepare myself
Cool. Quite supprising you found the sensation to be as fast. To me (and Ben) my Zed feels far slower, but put them both together on the road and it was pretty close before his remap. Also at the airfield day we did, he wasnt much quicker for having a bit more power.
Sounds to me like contaminants. If the panel was rusting the paint would lift up and off first. Try using a clay bar as suggested, I bet it will take it off. The fact that you say polish seems to smear it (chase??) sounds like tree sap to me, as thats exactly what polish does to it. Clay bar will lift if off
I would say 10 really, but I will ask the guys if they will just do a forum discount for us. I see the price has gone up now by about a tenna so I'll see what they can do.
Did you just swap over the filter then Mark? Before you were running an open K&N, so a pop charger should make no difference to an open K&N as they are both cotton filters. Unless you are talking about your enclosed K&N but then I would expect that to be lower than a pop charger! Interesting results. You going to post up your results in the Dyno results thread?
Did you have a head to head with it? I cant see it in the ebay link, is it standard? When Bens Evo was standard, there was nothing in it between us really. Now hes been remapped, theres no chance though, even if I get mine remapped!
Should be a good day, a nice mix of cars
If John (taxi) is the guy that was there last time giving out free rides in his Westfield, I'm definately going for a passenger ride this time as it looked great!
Rust??!! Nothing like a well looked after Zed and that sounds like it was nothing like a well looked after Zed! I hope it works out for you, buddy. I love my Zed and think i'm obsessed!!
My guess would be under the paint. Mine is doing this now. As per quite a lot of the Nissan paint, its not the best! Carbon bonnet for me soon when I cant stand it any more! There was no sign of it when I bought the car 2yrs ago, its been caused by stone chips in the last 2yrs
Pretty good results there chap
Interesting that you got about the same increase in power and torque all along the rev range, with more power unlocked up top. Most get a bigger slug of torque down low and less up top. Your AFR seemed very rich to start, but bob on now
No worries, would actively encourage people to visit z club anyway, its great for seeing all kinds of Zeds Just wish I had more time to spend on there, dont get much time looking after this place and working all the time
Guys, the site wont be going down, no need to go anywhere else (although z-club is good to peruse even when we are up ). Just use 350z-uk.net.
What Neo has done is move the ownership of www.350z-uk.net if thats the case as they all point here
