  1. Remember free shipping is like Interest free finance, you are already paying for it, dodging the tax man is the hard part, but then thats what general tariff headings are for. And in theory if you are smart you cut your own commercial invoice at a lower value and hence payless VAT and zero duty
  2. Buds, that sounds great, I think that we could really get those prices as low as possible, plus people can get there stuff sooner. Lower price + cheap shipping = more stuff !!!!!!!!!!!
  3. Yeah that would be great, to give you an Idea, whilst looking on Nissan Performance parts, I looked at buying an HKS exhaust and JWT pop charger, total cost (exc taxes) $1590 , fantastic I thought, then went to shipping and the shipping was $1520 on top Holly sh)t I said. A bit of shouting aroung the office, I could get it door to door £130. Thats a big diffence and that's without trying
  4. Pete Are you saying your torque decreases witha true dual exhaust? Did you have a Piggy back ECU?
  5. Chaps, I'm working on something that will make purchasingparts from aboard far more cost effective, now this is only to do with the shipping and not the actual equipment. if I am correct and my recent fall off my chair UPS experience tells me I am then, you could all benefit massivley. In order to achieve what I need, I require some feedback and data from you guys, such as; How much did you pay to ship, what from where to where, how much did it weigh and how big was it etc. I know this is alot to ask, but i really think I may be able to help smash prices and make group and individual buys far more attractive. Let me know what you think and please send me some data Cheers
  6. Holy Smokes, Dorian, you should work at NASA. Ok, based on my lack of engineering knowledge. If this creates a 17% loss and Spill was posting 266 hp, then if 266 = 83% is his true HP 320? Or have I missed the point.
  7. Whats the ride like and is the EDFC worth it
  8. How come you lose so much due to transmission, do you mean that you lose 10 hp because you were changing gear on a RR. Is this normal?
  9. Sorry meant US BHP and it should have been a new post
  10. Whats the difference between US BHO and UK BHP. And would this explain why when on US sights users talk about their cars being dyno tested at 256 hp and are happy, as I would be very miffed Cheers

    Exhaust

    Morning chaps How do I find their ebay shop?
  12. Not unhappy, I love the way it handles and sits. I'm just not sure how well it performs at the limit. I've had a couple of experiences now where I can feel a slight bit of roll coming in. Also sometimes it can feel a bit bouncy. Not complaining Lomoto, just forward thinking
  13. cheers for the clip, I just need some decent speakers to listern to it
  14. Yeah, I'm fed up with being a Zed Hopefull, need to get up the rankings. I was in a mates Calibre 2.5 v6 on Saturday, horrible sluggish performance, but he had had full Bilstein suspension fitted and lowered and it handled very well, just got me thinking about overall performance and not just straight line speed
  15. come on, don't leave me with nill pwoints. Someone must know about Tein and EDFC
  16. there is very little room between my Plenium and Strut bar and I do recall a previous poste of horrible vibes coming from the two when they touch
  17. Cheers for that, so If I already have a Kinetix Plenium do I need to do this too?
  18. I have been on MY350Z.com and they are talking about spacers and MREVs, what are they? I take it they don't mean wheel spacers?
  19. Cheers, that would be great. I have been told by Milltek that they would estimate, but can't be held to it as they haven't got offical dyno results, that the exhaust should give 10 extra bhp. They also said that they were aware that a piggy back ECU would be needed to ensure a permanent gain. What is interesting is they said this to me when I have a VW GTI Turbo, but they stated a 12 hp gain. I had that dyno'd at AMD in Bicester and it was up 12 hp, so so far they seem pretty good to their word. looking forward to the sound clip
  20. Ok, so I kno there have been numerous posts and debates about this Exhaust. I was wondering, I think maybe a couple of owners have a Milltek and HF Cat set up, any chance of some one doing a sound clip. As I've said before I have had Milltek experience before and the over impression was good, nice performance gains, great buildquaility etc, the only thing was the noise was very subtle. I know it's a cheek, but I just need to know

    Nobbie, where did you get your JWT PC from?

    Exhaust

    So any recommendations for a great sounding non-droning exhuast, great for ripping it up as well as commuting down the M4 everday, bearing in mind HF cats and soon JWT popcharger
