    Brake question

    thanks again Tere as usual your advice is priceless, can I ask does the thickness of the disc matter, like 32mm against 42mm will it have any better effects. Also, the Zinc coating, does it always stay that colour, or will eventually where the pad contiuously rubs against the disc turn it shiney silver just keeping the area that normally corrodes protected?
  9. hya mate welcome aboard, hmm m3 to a 350Z, very interesting, as others have said think the only way is to take the Z for a test drive. let us know how you get on
  10. I have a carbon bonnet looks great on black or even red, would not recommend GM I use to have a GM car and would not go down that route if you want to style it, heres my old Z for inspiration but IMO I wouldnt put carbon on it. Its like wearing yellow shoes with a green handbag so Sl114 tells me, it just clashes
  11. Future of Pakistan looks grim May God rest her soul. Such an influential woman who Im sure would of done her father proud by continuing his work for the good of Pakistan. Better still having a lady as PM would of shown the strict muslims that women are equal to man and should be treated as so. Cant believe this has happened, so gutted and sad. Im sure there will be many speculations that Musharraf set up her killing, after all it was by a supporter of his party, and he has not called of the 8th of Jan, plus given his military background. But then who are we to judge. Funny how she was way in the lead on votes, so much so that it would of been virtually impossible for Musharraf to regain any strong position before the final day of election Pakistan is set for a very miserable future under the strict hand of militants determining their agendas
  12. gay before my time they should of used a 350z, at least ot would handle better
  13. Welcome Holly great cars, r33 looks awesome, great spec too so what you got planned for the 350z looks like you got the TSW thruxton wheels very smart Ask cavey for pics of his wheels, he has same as your but are 12" wide at the rear

    Brake question

    thanks Tere, so having 355 or 360mm front disks with 6 or 4 pistons at the front with the standard disks at the back 2 pistons but uprated brake pads should be okay According to the tests, a stock Z is slightly front biased. With the StopTech 4-piston front and 355mm rotors, and stock rear, it becomes a little more front biased, but nothing the ABS can't handle (still passes the J turn test on the skidpad). I wouldn't track your Z until you upgrade the brakes all around -- the stock rear rotors are tiny and will overheat quickly, shifting the bias extremely far forward. For the street though, the unbalance is workable. What I like about StopTech is that they thoroughly test caliper/rotor combinations, so you get perfectly balanced brakes at all four corners. Originally, I was thinking 6-piston front and 4-piston rear, but as I got into the reasearch, I found the difference to be nil with my 4-piston front and 2-piston rear setup. What I found was the 6/4 setup was more show with no significant functionality (the master cylinder is the limitation). My setup will stop the Z 60-0mph in a little over 90 feet which is almost 20 feet shorter than stock (good pads AND tires are also keys). My setup is also better than the Z models with Brembos in balance, stopping ability, and track performance. The StopTech kit originally came with Axxis Ultimate pads which were absolutely horrible (poor modulation, noisy, and very dirty). They went bye-bye in two weeks in favor of Hawk HPS which I consider the ultimate street pad (not for track). Wow thanks Tere, but for someone who will be doing the occasional track and street, what pads would you recommend. Also if you dont mind me asking, how much did the stop tech brake kit set you back

    Brake question

    Going to uprate my front brakes to 6 pot and much bigger disks, is it okay to keep the rear braks for now and uprate the pads, or will this cause some problems if the front are much bigger and stronger? Should I change the front and rear together or can I do in stages
  17. Hya mate and welcome, I really like it against the blue, looks much better than the black dull grill imo
