i would love the time, money, garage space, skill and knowledge to be able to rescue and restore some of them. shame to see. it reminds me that my zed needs a clean tho. . .

that is a truly awesome site. lots of fun to be had

you can run on 95 ron but the car feels drastically better using 97 or tescos 99.

Sure have - just search for Stephen Grant on the 'tube and all shall be revealed.
just watched a couple of your vids, funny as fook. may have to turn up to a show in manc

ACT Pro Flywheel - extra-ordinarily lightweight compared to stock and other more popular flywheels and has good rep. I here that Adam from Z1 has some more in stock
Re extra gear changing - remap ecu to provide more revs - i think one guy increased his rev range to 7600 or something like that.
i'm pretty much set on getting jwt flywheel and clutch, partly due to quality and partly due to cheap deals buying both together.
i do like changing gear so would probably give the final drive a go depending on price. can you let me know if you get any decent quotes? maybe cheaper to buy in bulk? i'm a bit wary of remapping the ecu for more revs, as there's always a reason why you don't get them with stock. . .
anyway, just out of interest, below is stolen from 350z-tech
Table of max speeds

6th. . . . .185.6. . . . . .167.6. . . . . . 176.5
not convinced the z would do 185 mph so there is some wasted gear ratio going there. . .

i did look into this myself as it seems a good mod. however, the thing that put me off was that even though it improves acceleartion, you have to change gear more. i was thinking that the 15% improvement in acceleration may be cancelled out to a degree because of the extra changes, and that weighed up with the cost of buying one and fitting it. . . i'd love to be proved wrong though
just out of interest, which flywheel you chose?

either spend as he says £35,000 on building a replica 360 which is actually a peugeot, or just save up and buy a 360

prepare to be offended when they chuckle to themselves. . .

Lol I think its a northern thing, you guys always suffered with taste, I mean fried mars bars come on
i heard they were a southern delicacy (like eels) that lines your stomach before a heavy sesh on the shandy

had thought of getting a celica but someone told me that they aren't particularly comfortable unless you're of a smaller build. cheeky sod

Hope you get hit with ugly tax
don't give labour any ideas! couldn't afford to stomach that as well. . .

Only one in existance and will only ever be one.
strange, i've not seen an article on it in max power. . .

you could register yourself and your zed as a taxi and p**s livingstone off that way.
just charge your missus when she gets in the car

ESR's a dangerous place. was in the area the other day hoping to nip in but didn't have time in the end. quite lucky really as pay day is not yet upon me. . .
-
i have a yamaha yb100 (in some garage). doesn't get any use now but would make the zed feel fast! maybe you wanna swap Stu?
-
but surely that's against his human rights and it's societies fault he stole the car in the first place because lousy taxpayers don't give him enough free money. he probably just needed a good free holiday and some new free threads.
obviously joking, that was awesome. wonder if we'd have gangs of hoodies harrassing old people if we policed like that.

she's at least a 3 pinter. . .

look good mate, gonna need to get some myself.

as a general rule of thumb (or so i've been told), the most realistic and economical way to drive on a motorway would be at a constant speed of about 60 mph in top gear without having cruise control and air con on. has anyone ever actually tried it?
Some people will risk pushing the DTE that extra mile, others will fill up as soon as the light comes on. A true test would be to run the car till it runs out of fuel. That would be a true validation. Any volunteers?no chance. can you imagine the embarrassment of overtaking a punto with full halfords bodykit and then running out of fuel?

i got mine from an ebay seller, similar price and they let me choose the colour of the mats, including colour of 350z logo and stitching. was impressed with the fit as well.
shows you how much nissan are making on accessories!

At 6-7 psi I wouldn't think there is much of a mileage factor, provided it's done correctly, and the engine wasn't beat to a pulp in the first place.
thanks tere. not gonna be able to stop thinking about f/i now. . .
-
400 if engine is new, 370-380 otherwise is the safest i heard
without wanting to hi-jack the thread, do you know what maximum mileage a z would have before it shouldn't be f/i'd?
