  1. You may have a vacuum leak. Did you use a torque wrench to tighten everything back up? off topic: IanS16 I see you have a UK Birdview DVDROM on your signature. Did this fix the Jap Satnav and allow you to use the Jap OEM screen? Hi mate, just bought a nissan partol DVD unit (the dvd drive behind drivers seat. Replaced the dvd drive but NOTHING else.. JDM screen etc. Only annoying thing is the Japanese buttons but its pretty obvious after a few times using it! And strangely enough quite cool
  2. I'd definitely be interested. So am i getting this right.. you turn up in your own Zed and get to take it round silverstone with optional tuition?
  3. Well i got mine on.. took about 2 and a half hours. Engine light is on now though and cant get the reset procedure to work:wacko: Cant wait to try it out now, its pissing it down in Brum!
  4. No.. i bought a plenum spacer. Heard good things, best bang for buck performance mod etc. Might be wrong but i heard in some cases you can get an extra 10bhp and a bit of mid range torque. Dont have a clue how it works though!
  5. Hey guys, Anyone want to help me fit my plenum spacer for a bit of £££. Havent got the tools and havent got the brains either My mechanic has offered but i want to get it installed tonight!
  6. Does anybody here come from the midlands that would have the tools and like to help me for cash?!
  7. I **THINK** its a chamber, located between the throttle body and the runners of an intake manifold, used to distribute the intake charge evenly and to enhance engine breathing (ony joking.. got that off the web) But yeah, think thats what it is
  8. Err... i think so, its not metal though. Is that right?
  9. Hey guy n gals, Got a motordyne plenum spacer yesterday thinking I could easily fit it myself but after looking at the instructions I realised I have no chance. My question is could any old garage fit it or is a specialist required? I'm an idiot when it comes to the technical side of cars
  10. If anyone wats to know, his name is Wally and his number is 01564 826 504 Not too sure of the business name though. Its located in Birmingham. Postcode B487HX
  11. Yeah, im really happy with the job! Dont know what he did but its perfect either way. Just gotta hope it doesnt wash off when the rain comes
  12. Just had my front bumper painted, only cost £120 cash. looks perfect, he even stuck the badge back on and washed my car
  13. Hey guys, Just wondering if the Air inlet ducts are actually any use or if they are purely cosmetic? For a setup like the JWT pop charger do they at least cool the air?
  14. Got any pics As for getting me in a 350Z, I'd love to but can't afford one. I had a Mondeo ST24 before the SX, and absolutely loved the V6 roar, so a 350Z is right up my street, the 200 is gret for me at the moment. I had R33 GTR wheels but they are dented To be honest.. no. They are the same as http://images.automotive.com/dealer_use ... 7269_1.jpg I actually prefer the JDM rim design to the standard 18" uk spec, just wish they were a little bigger!
  15. Yeah.. Carbon fibre front lip cover needed after smashing my old one (and bumper) to pieces. Will pay via paypal. Cheers
  16. Did you have to rip out the Bose to install these?
  17. Iv got some JDM 17s all with brand new tyres. Suppose you are looking to go bigger than that though?
  18. Mine has AutoDJ and CarWings written on it.. (buttons) doesnt sound like its that he's talking about though.
  19. From my past experiences with Phil and the lads at ESR I must say they have always been very helpful and the price was definitely fair for what they did. They also managed to find a way to correct something on the suspension of my car that other garages that I spoke to had no idea about other than replacing costly parts. Hell, Phil even offered to take his car apart to look at something for my car as it was un driveable and I could not get it up to him. Im not trying to win an ass kissing competition but i really must say that the service *I* encountered was second to none. Hope you guys sort thing out

    Flywheel

    Hey guys, idiots question i know. Would an ACT Prolite flywheel (for 350z) be usable on a tiptronic transmission or is it part of a manual setup?
