    Holy moly

    he isnt just spinning tho he is spinning off in random directions, it isnt just for cornering or so i thought!

    Holy moly

    I assume you have to alter the LSD settings when increasing the power by this much, he is obviously doing that without the TC but would hope the lsd would stop it spinning so violently.. twin turbo all the way!
  3. I like the bronze alloys mart White reflectors and 19" nismo alloys K1 exhaust from ESR
  4. ive got some spare but no time to post etc... if u didnt live that far away id suggest collecting them, are you at any meets soon?
  5. lol, id have to buy a set for everyone in bedford!!! 147911 population 2x earplugs is £4.49 So about £330,000 i think i did the right thing but thanks all the same
  6. I have decided to purchase the apexi unit with the variable valve to control the noise, ill take some pictures etc and try to give a guide on how to install etc when it arrives. thanks to shane on the 'other' forum and 3fiddy for suggesting it.
  7. It is linked to the council, i got lucky as i was passing said porka, gaymen with a non standard exhaust right next to the sound thing, i suspect they just said unable to pinpoint which one it was.
  8. I know of people who have dealt with the before and been impressed, unfortunately they are in essex and im based in coventry, company i work for has an office down there tho.... mmmm 40p a mile might cover the inconvenience... ta, ill let you know if i do.
  9. i was wondering how long it would take you to say 'i told you so' ekona In the morning session i got to 104db or something 1db from tripping it, the sensor is about 20m away!! i saw three sensors and a porka was catching me because i was lifting off for them, then it passed me and i was like, right then im not standing for that! floored it in third and saw the sensor whilst i was at about 5.8k revs on the same side of track i will investigate the suggestions, ta guys.
  10. Hi All Still love the K1 dont get me wrong, and most tracks are without DB limits so no issue However i was at bedford on saturday (pics to follow) and although i had the bungs in and passed the static test at 4.5k revs, i did set one of the drive by things off, head marshall was reasonable etc so i just had to lift off once i knew where they all were, 4 in total 3 of them grouped, so lots of track to play with still Is there anyway anyone can think of apart from changing exhaust to make this even quieter? Anyone had any experience with steel wool? Dont want to get banned from the track and i got vouchers on saturday for another free session! Also really dont want to change exhaust but i will if cant get an answer... ta
  11. The problem is the posting of misinformation not the fact that people are suggesting something is tat. In the thread i was trying to sell the brake parts in i asked a Mod to remove the less helpful posts from the people who unfortunately didnt actually know what they were talking/commenting about. This actually ended up in the more helpful comments getting deleted as well but at least the bad ones had gone. I dont understand people who would purposefully go out to comment negatively about something they dont understand, i hardly have enough time to read and comment on the ones i am interested in...
  12. not as easy to fit the plenum to the revup engine as you need a new oil collector as well...
  13. i have a friend who trades zeds among other sports cars and he does it on a per car basis, their cut that is, if its been sat on the forecourt costing them money he has occasionally let it go for a v small margin just to free up the space for the next thing he thinks he can sell... I would keep an eye out and see how long they have had said zed, if its been there a few weeks then there are more likely to try their luck, if its been there for 6 weeks plus then they might be more willing to take less margin, just be prepared to walk away from the deal, and try and have a few examples in mind... also, be warned that if you test drive one you may turn into a teenage kid again
  14. From Glasses guide (the uptodate one) So you would be looking at it needing to be excellent condition, allow for the fact no one wants to pay full price, then put another grand in and then look at an earlier model zed maybe? Excellent condition: £10500 Average condition: £9450 Below average condition: £8410 gluk it will be worth the effort
  15. thats what i was getting at although badly worded be interesting to see the 0-65 or 0-70 times in comparison to the 350z
  16. 0-60 4.7 0-70 6.2 Took an additional 1.5 seconds to go from 60-70.... i think the 4.7 is very optimistic, i understand it takes exponentially more power each additional 10mph but 1.5 secs hmm maybe second gear just touches 60 and theres a shorter gear ratio on this than the current 350z.
  17. That all makes sense m8 cant wait for a full review
  18. if you were going FI would there be an advantage in getting the ECU before hand? The torque does look like magic
  19. the figures arnt too bad but that is quite expensive for the increase, though i guess that depends how many hours they have spent on it. i think the proof will be how it drives though, when do you get it back?
  20. Digsy, this is from the blog though i know that may or may not be as accurate as it could be This test used a 350Z which was otherwise standard except for a Nismo exhaust system, so that we could determine the effects of transfering the tuning priority away from emissions and towards performance.

    Almost Finished

    Polished power steering & windscreen washer tanks, Carbon Battery covers, OEM style polished oil cap & the other 2 are being kept under wraps for now Who sorted you out with the black plenum? when will it be finished ?
