My Gunmetal 350z GT

Fitted the Torqen 15mm spacers today to the rear. Considering they are only 15mm, they make quite a difference :) . It's also made me realise how cruddy it is back there :lol: . So now I'm adding new discs and braided lines to pile..

Couple of new additions for under the bonnet :) .

 

Needless to say I'm going purple underneath :lol: .

Very happy with the bonnet struts!  Why all cars don't come with these i'll never know..

So I finally got my Torqen HFC's and Stillen You Pipe fitted and holy sh*t does it sound and feel savage now :lol:. I didn't think those 2 changes would make so much difference in noise! Just need a remap now!

 

I'll get some fly by's!!

I have Circuit Sports ones and fitted this way also.

 

Gas springs are commonly installed with the rod in the downward position. This will allow the oil inside the system to stay in contact with the sealing mechanism in order to keep it moist, thus prolonging the life of the gas spring by keeping the seal from drying out.

EML also seems to keep popping up after fitting my sports cats. Getting the codes read today but I'm hoping it's just needing a remap now..

Ahh I was hoping it would be along those lines! Another excuse for an uprev in the new year :) .

you know what's also great about that app? I don't have to do the peddle dance to clear the EML! I simply send the command to the ECU via the app :lol:.

Haha, my neighbours are always popping out to see what I'm up too :lol: .

 

Done a few little tasks today that have been bugging me for a while! Sorted the rear bumper rattle...It was missing it's clips that hold it to the bracket, cheap easy fix! Also adjusted the handbrake, polished the headlights again..And polished the exhaust! 

 

No wasting time.. The Das Pro came out!
