  2. I can confirm I ve pi**ed the girlfriend off a few times locking her in the car Neil I don't think it's got motion sensors or anything. I can jack the car up both ends and it still won't go off.... Wish the gf was the same

  4. Then again if your zed is the 313 it's a gearbox down job and make sure you are always carrying a spare slave cylinder too! Stupid French design
  5. Top gear on the other hand rate the mc higher than the 458.
  6. True. However most head units flatten the sound again themselves when you turn it on close to max. If you are running amps it can clog the bass on average volume. I doubt it's the loudness. Use the search mate. I am sure there is a thread for it somewhere here.
  7. I will massively agree with lexx above! As for here we ve got the insurance companies robbing us that's why the young ones can't get a fast car. 2000quid for a used wrx and 10000 quid to insure it! Plus we ve got more police here than the communist soviet union keeping the number of accidents low.
  8. The ring is under new management and they don't close it as often due to accidents and repairs. Keep an eye on the road for yellow flags and speed limit signs....on the ring! On the other hand the F1 track is included now (or it was a few weeks ago when I went ) so after the first straight there is a set of corners that take you to the start-finish straight of the F1 track....it's awesome! Have a great time! You ll love it
  9. Haha they are fast indeed...I could catch up with them on the straights not corners that much overall faster round cadwell tho
  10. Very nice mate! Was that Ferrari running on 6 cylinders or summat? Lmao
  11. I had a lancia d with a supermirafiori 1.6 and a mazerati 4200gt with a Ferrari v8. They were good engines...the zeds is ok... Plus the 313 has to be French as the clutch slave cylinder is in the clutch...typical French stupidity
  12. The 50s make less noise comparing to the ps2s. You are right the 50s need to be the ones for the zed also known as scuderia. If you are finding them too noisy then don't go for the ps2s. Then again what have you got at the front? You don't want to unbalance the car by using first class 50s at the front let's say and second class ga kens at the rear. Btw by far and I mean far!!! The best tyre is the pilot supersport. Full stop. But for the nismo sizes it's 800 quid for the 2 rears. If you ask me if it's worth the price difference its not. Don't even bother...but you will transform your zed with a set of those. Much gripier than the ps2s and the 50s under all circumstances and much quieter too. Oh and more hard wearing than the ridiculously soft ps2s.
  13. Which Stones are you comparing to? Only one type of stones 050As. I ve gone through several sets of 050As, ps2s on 18 and 19 inch rims, 40 and 45 prof on the 18s...so far about 10 in total...oh and 2 sets of 888s 40prof on 18 rims.
  14. Michelin pilot supersport. Had them fitted yesterday and so far driven on dry warm tarmac. I can defo say Michelin have the upper hand again against bridgestones. By quite a margin as well. They feel and seem softer on the road. Steering typical Michelin. Dry handling just short of the 888s. Dry braking better than the ps2s. Noise level about the same as the stones. More to come... Ps... Haven't paid yet...but they are very very expensive
  15. Had it installed the other day...haven't looked into freeview yet and not over the moon with the equaliser as it only has treble and bass but no mid adjustment....graphics look a bit too basic too. I was expecting a bit more from a 1000quid head unit...then again a million times better than the Bose.
  16. Brembos lasted one track day...ebc turbo grooved 2, dba 4100 6 ring laps and a wet track day and they cracked. Dixcels were very very good and pf the best so far with the racing compound pads. Still got them at the front and still got the dixcels at the back. Lasted for ages and I am utterly happy with them... At donington 888s overheated before the brakes and at cadwell they brakes started feeling weak after over 10 very hard laps...almost at the same time as the tyres.
  17. it has to be TT for the HR....although the TT (audi) upsets my insides
  18. man i dont know what comfort means...i ve got a 520 bmw with 65 profile tyres for that haha and the quaife is not for me as i manage to get the occasional rear wheel off the ground as fot the nismo it has to be 1.5. i am not that keen on drifting...its more for killing porsches and lotuses on b roads (and tracks)...but dont tell anybody or the thread will be locked
  19. Nothing will sort it out for long mate... It's noisy as f...k grrrrr. The yanks appear to prefer redline with friction modifier as a valvoline and even after you break it in it won't stay quiet for long. It's very embarrassing esp in car parks....I am even thinking of designing a sticker saying 'it's not rattling only when it's drifting' haha And trying to actually explain and justify it to the girlfriend was the worse part. All the best...but a track day or a drift day/night will convince you its worth it It stays on for me!
  20. That is far to low , it will wear the front compression arms bushes out in no time , rear driveshaft angle will be excessive as well for constant running. I would say a max of 25mm is the most you can lower the 350Z to keep reasonable suspension angles. SPC make a nice front suspension top arm to allow the camber to be adjusted, not cheap thou. Raise it up a few MM I am sure it will ride far better and be more usable. +1 dangerously low mate. Had mine that low for a while and could easily knock the cats eyes off the road On standard rays Car would get unsettled easily too. About 25mm all over and the front cambers were about 1.4 degrees. I dont understand why your cambers are so different tho. I got the spc front camber arms and adjusted the front camber to 2.5 to eliminate understeer but Tyres don't like it. Neither the bushes. Spc kit is great with easy and more precise adjustment. Before that I had another kit (don't remember the name-blue with lots of Allen bolts on the plane) which was ok but had to adjust to 0.01 of the degree.
  21. It sounds awesome Neil!!! What's the noise reading at knock hill? Mine got measured recently at cadwell 95db at 4500k revs
  22. It would be more powerful...till I get the snails fitted in a few months
