Mods so far: New Z badging front & back Tinted windows S2000 stubby aerial Carbon fibre engine cover & slam panel Quote
lomoto Posted July 4, 2006 Posted July 4, 2006 nice good polish finish like the plate are you fitting NOS?? Quote
Andy Posted July 4, 2006 Author Posted July 4, 2006 Thanks mate, spent the whole weekend clay baring the car then a good few coats of Meguiars!!! I will be putting NOS on it as I have the plate, would prefer some F/I action but the bank balance won't allow it at the moment so NOS it will be and it matches the plate so all good!! Quote

What make mate? I've got the actual Nitrous Oxide Systems kit and will most probably go with a wet kit (or at least that is what I have been recommended as the extra fuel input will make it slightly safer to use) Quote
Andy Posted July 5, 2006 Author Posted July 5, 2006 I want to know whats in the box.... Lots of new toys!! Quote
Guest prescience Posted July 5, 2006 Posted July 5, 2006 Andy, How does the NOS work cos on the face of it, unless you retard timing, detonation would seem to be a big problem? This would be v nice to see in action though Quote
M13KYF Posted July 5, 2006 Posted July 5, 2006 Very nice Andy. Think you may need an estate with all that ICE your gonna install Quote
lomoto Posted July 5, 2006 Posted July 5, 2006 Very nice Andy. Think you may need an estate with all that ICE your gonna install I tell you what I wouldnt want you coming past my house at night with that lot thumping Quote
M13KYF Posted July 5, 2006 Posted July 5, 2006 They come past my office on deansgate and they shake all the windows and I'm on the fourth floor Quote
AndyC Posted July 5, 2006 Posted July 5, 2006 I'd LOVE to see (and hear!) that when you've got it in mate, reckon you've got a mammoth task on your hands if you're gonna shoehorn that lot into the zed!!!! Seriously though, good luck Quote
Andy Posted July 5, 2006 Author Posted July 5, 2006 Thanks for the comments guys!! As far as the ICE goes, I like to think i'm not one of the lot that goes around with the tunes on so loud it makes your spleen erupt!!! For me, it is all about the sound quality which is why I have the hardware I do! I'll keep you updated as I go along but I think it will take me a while to do it all!! Quote
neo Posted July 5, 2006 Posted July 5, 2006 very nice setup what brand of speakers are you using ? Quote
Andy Posted July 5, 2006 Author Posted July 5, 2006 Focal Utopias up front and in the boot with 5" Utopia subs and 12" JL W6 woofers all running off Series III Genesis amps. Quote
neo Posted July 6, 2006 Posted July 6, 2006 nice choice in speakers, can't wait until it's all finished Quote
H5 Posted July 6, 2006 Posted July 6, 2006 This is more my thing, Focal, Genesis, Audio Control. Have you ever competed Andy?? I've been doing IASCA for a while and the Z is my new toy. Out of the old car is one big pile of JL Audio, Alpine and Phoenix Gold electrickery. New line up will be Focal, Alpine with a sea of alcantara......! Quote
