Chris`I

I dont think you so much as feel heat soak, its more a log of the ODBII (diag) will show it up somewhere in lower numbers, but I have no idea where. Tere might be able to help with that kind of thing, she has a lot of experience in tuning Zeds. You will probably just prefer one to the other. From what I have read the differences between stock air box, CAI and short ram are very few and far between. Its mainly about noise I guess. Short ram will give more noise as the end of the filter isnt enclosed. Also there have been people with CAI that have driven into large puddles and hydrolocked the engine where water has been sucked up through the CAI into the engine (think thats what it is). At the end of the day, it all appears to be about personal preference to what you like the best as the self leveling ECU will take control and negate any gains you would see

This seems to be 50/50 split on my350z. Short ram is likely to have less pressure drop but is also prone to heat soak. CAI is the opposite. I'd try short ram (easy to fit) then CAI and see which you prefer. I'm currently trying to decide on whether to get a BMC CDA intake or not. They get really good reviews on my old Leon forums (and all VAG), and Alfa's use them a lot too, as well as a few race teams and bike teams, but then arent seen on Zeds very often. Think I'll start a new trend

and what year did you hit Marty or wouldnt the prof let you drive? I could barely see over the wheel, never mind drive, I think I was about 10yrs, if that I'll dig out the pics and try and get them scanned in

Glad so see it all sorted mate

Theres a lot more in driver skill than people realise usually. Also the Zed is more of an enthusiasts car than people buying it for the name as with Boxsters/Caymans, so Zed owners tend to know there stuff a bit more. Thats not to say that all Zed owners are the best drivers in the world, and all Boxster owners are rubbish, but the vast majority of them are hair dressers That is of course except for when you are up against an Evo. The computer on board them can launch a space shuttle and will take any sort of crap driver and make them good!

I think it'd be a close call, much more down to driver skill than the cars. As far as I can see they are pretty well matched, but of course you being the better driver will win

Bah, they're only jealous of people moving up and getting nicer cars. As am I but if I stay nice I might get a go in one some day. Most exotic car I've been in other than the Zed is a Delorian

:yahoo:

Shhhh, we dont need Sarnie knowing that Plus if I get to the corner first, he aint gonna get Lambo around me

From what little knowledge I have of this sort of thing, they usually attempt to "tweak" the hanger on the exhaust itself. Rubber mallet would work in this case. You possibly do the same for the overhang, hammering the hanger forward which means relative to the back of the car it gets recessed further under the bumper.

Be interested in the replies to this myself. I have a few scratches here and there, some swirl marks (mainly on the roof) and usual peppering of stone chips which I want to get fixed at some point.

I've got a Zed! My cars faster than yours My bike will do 0-60 (marginally) quicker than your car

Thats why I thought it was so funny. Good attempt to save yourself Zedrush

AWESOME Damn you got 20/20 eye vision then, wish I did would of loved to have flown a jet Not sure if you saw my thread What yo look like, Ive even got Adam@z1 on there on what I thought he looked like. Here is a pic of what I think you look like now

Can't do that any more, bits cost more now Can we make Lambo bits fit the Zed?

Awesome car mate. I love Porkers and would love to have a GT3 RS one day. A while back we took my mates Evo VIII to the track and the couple of GT3 RS's that were there sailed passed us as if we were standing still, simply amazing. Also where I saw and fell in love with the Zed Porker will have to wait until I have some more money unfortunately.

no , he's not done anything wrong to warrant prosecution...morally there's a different story I beleive if directly asked he has to fess up, but if the buyer doesnt ask he doesnt have to tell them. I also believe if its "sold as seen" and the buyer finds out later it was a write off then they have no comeback

Chris, I'm guessing thats answered here: Sure that wasnt there when I posted. Fees or no fees I will dontate, its all for a good cause. Should get me some shares in PayPal too, try and make some money back

When Lomoto replied then I thougth you were gonna say you spotted him Always good to have new members, espcially if they are like Sarnie and buy stuff and sell it on instantly before fitting it - means good deals for me

+1 Can I come work with you? I'm quite board at my work, yours sounds far more fun

I got to about p8-9 at work but it wouldnt load at home. Back at work now, so back to it Those pics are hillarious too

I'd take the money, it wont loose you much if you decide to sell it on, plus its less hassle like you say. Just wait for the noise, then you wont even remember the dent

I'm on pg3 - no boobs, but an interesting read all the same. Ah well, there goes my work for the afternoon!
