  1. A mate of mine has an Evo7 (running around 340BHP). A £50 tank of petrol lasts about 200 miles. Parts are cheaper for the Evo than they are for the Z. He recently fitted PF front disks & pads for about £350 Its pretty evenly matched with my Z even though i'm running more power. The way it puts the power down is just insane, seeing it launch from the toll booths a few weeks ago was mental They don't look as good as the Z but IMO they drive better
  2. Ian, did Nissan make em in plastic? Seen em on a few Z's at meetings that what I was told at the time. Don't think they did They made mud guards but I can't recall them making underwings like that
  3. Veilside V1 underwings
  4. I'm still waiting for my free sticker
  5. Needs to be 350 quality posts, you need to make atleast another 349.5 posts
  6. Yeah they can
  7. +1 I've been cutting mine away a bit at a time to stop it catching. I think the next step is complete removal
  8. No, For the wideband you need to buy the TXS Tuner & you get the wideband reading from that (o2 sensor fitted into the cat)
  9. The most helpful (knowledgable) person I found with my UTEC was Shariff @ Forged Performance I've still got mine sat in a cupboard gathering dust. I need to get around to testing it one day to make sure it definatley is faulty TurboXS make theyre own wideband controller which is used in conjunction with the UTEC but I was using the AEM w/b gauge with mine As above though, very few tuners in the UK for it. Thor can do it, RJN can do it & so can WGT. For the cost of the unit & mapping just go with uprev, especially if staying N/A
  10. The design of the wheel will also determine whether they clear brembos or not. Ideal offset imo is anything below a +12
  11. No they won't. I run a 285 on a 10.5 wheel & there is no stretch.
  12. Chris, Try these guys if your back this way M & M Tyres, Tel: 029 2086 0866 They are the only people I trust to do my tyres & they have always matched the best internet price I can find for them
  13. It is Thats all the info I have on it though as I believe Adam abandoned the project
  14. From the site its just standard Brembos with Ferodo pads Any engine bay pics?

    C-West Canards fitted

    Thanks Few more carbon touches to come in the next few weeks
  16. His car looked a lot better on the DPEs
  17. You'll never know unless you ask (or search ) Decat? Is where you replace your cat (catalitic converter) with a straight-through pipe, replacing the cats completely. This won't pass an MOT Cat back? The exhaust section from the catalitic converter backwards (not including cats) so mid section and back box. Bungs? I don't know! Probably baffles that go in the back box, sometimes removable. Race cats. AKA high flow cats. Allow more airflow through the cats and usually louder. Most will pass an MOT, although techincally I think they're supposed to be marked with a british standard, though doubt many, if any, would check. Hope that helps a little... Bungs are fitted in the tail pipe to reduce noise Lambda sensors are in the cats & not the exhaust, all hiflow/de cats for the Z have bungs to refit the sensors. MOT with decats = fail Everything else "should" pass
  18. Theres also a slight difference on the timing cover between the 276 & 296 models, A pretty certain way to distinguish between a DE & a Rev-up 276 DE 296 Rev Up
