  1. its no biggee mate, try these... check the big jubilee clip is tight as ekona says check you plugged the connector in the maf do an ecu reset http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic ... hlight=ecu
  2. drexyl, where have you been ? ... not prison again ? the light might require an ecu reset, check you have plugged the connector back into the maf maf = the black box on the tube that you have fitted the popcharger to this isn't common but not unknown with a popcharger install, usually a reset cures it
  3. driving a car that is wearing a condom is normal ... isn't it good idea though
  4. Yeah, that'll do it! I guess in all fairness it does depend on how you drive your car. If you pottle around all day in city centres barely breaking 30 mph then I totally agree with you, tyre choice doesn't matter so much. I doubt that many people who own a Zed drive like that, though 4 words..... i live in wales built for driving hard but you have to be
  5. i would not mismatch tyres on any of my bikes as that is critical, warm up rates, grip levels but i just think you are over stating the case on a road car unless you are running total cheapo tyres on one axle and quality on the others mine feels better with the falken/pzero combo than with p-zero's all round but the front p-zero's were totally shot in the end
  6. When a BMW 335i owner in Munich became bored with his black coupe, he hired a team to wrap it in white tape. Two days later, he drove home in his refreshed "Alpine White" coupe (with an M3-appearing black roof). No, it's not normal tape. It's a special 3M wrap, and the process is known as "foiling." Apparently, the German military has been using the process (with an olive drab tape) for some time now. Likewise, the process is popular with race teams and taxi companies. Available in countless colors, the tape itself is thick enough to protect the paint from minor chips and nicks, and it can be left adhered to the surface for 3-4 years without damage (!). Adhesion isn't a problem either, as the tape can even withstand an automatic car wash without peeling off. no more stone chips I looked at this sort of thing with a view to going matt black but boy its expensive.
  7. do tyres really need to behave the same ? the front and rear tyres require different attributes surely ? the front steer and have different forces applied to them than the rear, plus there is fwd and rwd
  8. pretty sure it will be connected to the reverse bulb connector to use it as a switch
  9. fifth gear loved it, the tart said it would be in her top 10 cars clarkson moaning about the sub thumping in his back fat chance of that !!
  10. Looks , i bought a carbon cover for mine as i have a carbon front lip
  11. I run different tyres, front and rear and i've had absolutely no issues, i wonder if these people offering advise on this have any actual experience of it falkens on the front and p-zeroes on the rear i did have a big moment with the rear on a rounabout when i was running p-zeroes all round..... so go figure ! too heavy on the loud pedal was the cause people love to paint it black
  12. i know its an 8 but i dont care
  13. I was running p-zero's all round and then changed the front to falkens, the traction control is a lot less intrusive now than before ! dont believe the hype
  14. not legal but i know a few peeps with als twin turbo should not show any lag, i would get it set up properly
