Jp606 Posted April 30, 2014 Posted April 30, 2014 Looking good, got many plans for it? Please don't ruin it like your last cars! Quote
GMballistic Posted April 30, 2014 Posted April 30, 2014 ^^ Definitely different especially the Fiesta with what I can only assume are Matchbox toy car wheels on it. Either way it's your Zed so make it look how you like. Enjoy it. 2 Quote
jimmykool111 Posted April 30, 2014 Author Posted April 30, 2014 Haha that fiesta got so much love! but i understand its not everyones cup of tea... Sadly i do like the stanced look but its gonna be nice to have something faster! Main plans at the minute are single exit exhaust system, upgrade the head unit and try find some wheels with some dish! 1 Quote

It's your car jimmykool111 and make it how you like but honestly I wouldn't get a single exit exhaust. Imo a true dual system is the best type to get. All depends on your budget, what look & sound you're after though. Just take your time deciding as I've seen lots of members buy exhaust systems and then they don't like it because it's too loud, or it drones on a motorway, or they heard one they prefer more etc etc. Quote
jimmykool111 Posted April 30, 2014 Author Posted April 30, 2014 i have a lot of research to do. i saw a 350z in nottingham with a single exit and it may have been the nicest sound ever. Pritty sure it had a HKS can on the back. Some of these duals do sound nice. anyone got a custom system? good? bad? 1 Quote

There are some members with custom systems yes and even one or two that have retro fitted GTR exhaust systems. Personally I'd prefer to get an off the shelf system where the manufacturer has actually spent the time researching & developing the exhaust for the car. If you just want it to sound nice & look pretty though by all means get a custom system but I wouldn't imagine them to be as good for developing power increases although it will be a bit better over standard still I'd have thought.

Suits Posted April 30, 2014 Posted April 30, 2014 Fiesta looks smart man, I like it. Welcome along . Quote
jimmykool111 Posted April 30, 2014 Author Posted April 30, 2014 cheers guys! Swapped the fiesta and £950 cash for the 350z! Quote

wizurd Posted April 30, 2014 Posted April 30, 2014 welcome along. Single exit exhaust will be different to see so thats always good. Quote
jimmykool111 Posted May 15, 2014 Author Posted May 15, 2014 Little update, not got alot of cash at the min as buying the Zed skinted me for this month. Cant help my self doing bits to the car though... Had a go at spraying the rear strut bar, i also smoothed it to get rid of the Zed logo and the 6 holes. All done with a **** can (Y) Roll on pay day!

Humpy Posted May 15, 2014 Posted May 15, 2014 Not keen on the Z badge on the rear strut then? Good job though Quote
jimmykool111 Posted May 15, 2014 Author Posted May 15, 2014 Not keen on the Z badge on the rear strut then? Good job though Nah not really, big fan of the smoothed look! 1 Quote
-Bradders- Posted May 15, 2014 Posted May 15, 2014 Think it would have looked nice without the holes but kept the Z looks like a good job though! Quote
Suits Posted May 16, 2014 Posted May 16, 2014 I'm not a fan of the Z burgers on my 370Z either. Looks like it would be rather an expensive job to get rid of them though . Top job on that rear strut. Quote
AliveBoy Posted May 16, 2014 Posted May 16, 2014 Personally I love a single exit Rear strut looks like you did a good job, keep it up 2 Quote
jimmykool111 Posted May 16, 2014 Author Posted May 16, 2014 Cheers guys! Cant complain at the out come considering it came out of a can. I think single exits look the best. im gonna have to do it. Quote
jimmykool111 Posted June 13, 2014 Author Posted June 13, 2014 Little update, had some parcels come in the post this week! first came the de-cats, thanks Faraz for selling them. Then today the Japspeed Y-pipe came from Scully, cheers Also today my single exit Megan racing back box and centre pipe arrived, ordered from a company called CZP in America. Hate or love welcome Quote
Harro Posted June 13, 2014 Posted June 13, 2014 Interested to see how the single exit turns out, what's with the bolts in the tailpipe? Quote
