BLACK-HAWK

Yeah we all know you can bolt a turbo/supercharger on but this was apparently a "special order from the factory"

A fellow scoobynetter has a familly member who's neighbour apparently ownes one, smelt like bs to me (i work for a nissan dealership).

Is this statement correct? "apparently is was a special order (from Japan) through a UK dealers. One of only two in the country apparently".

Cheers guys hav'nt fitted them yet but will do soon, with confidence

Cheers Chris , thats interesting about k-sport/mintex

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hi all, i'm about to do a much needed brake upgrade on my my06 wrx, i'm going from the o.e. wrx 4pots/294mm discs with o.e. pads to a k-sport 356mm 2 peice disc and 8 pot calipers, my only concern follows a chat with a mate on this forum who said there have been some very bad reviews on the k-sport pads, dont want to spend a wad of cash and end up with no noticable improvement in the braking, so who on here has used the k-sport pad with the above rota/caliper combination and what are the issues? should i bin the k-sport pad first as last and use another pad, any recomendations? i've heard the pf01's are good but expensive, cheers Jarvis

Anyone need a mirror

Out of sheer curiosity, you said you were paintshop estimator, what would Nissan charge for a proper respray? We've done a few 350's and the cost would depend on the level of prep required i.e. dents /scrathes/chips/corossion, i think the yellow mica gt4 was £2'250 inc and a black one we did over xmas was iro 2k, it does cost abit to get the glass taken out via a glass specialist.

Have been happy with the scoob for a while now but with extra power just a bolt on part and remap away and being one that likes to keep up with my mates if we go on a run, These include: evo6 tommi makkinen, escort cosworth, pulsar gti-r, evo4 rs, evo8 mr,(least powerful of whitch is the nissan @ 320bhp & most powerfull being cosworth over 500) and the scooby boys, now 100% happy but get board owning a car over 3yrs, if i did have a 350Z id have to go down the forced induction route (turbo/supercharger) and having gone down this route in the past with massive bhp & performance gains but with poor reliability, i would be dubious of going down that road again

Take a look at scooby net and the mlr

Yeah std 2001>wrx not to good circa 160bhp/ton 0-60 about 6secs, spend a modest sum on bolt ons and i now have 275bhp/ton 0-60 3.8

I know what you mean, thats why i think i got the urge to sell the scoob after over 3 years of ownership, but when i thoght about it i realised that out and out performance is NO:1 priority for me and probably could'nt live with a comparetively slow car, thats why i was considering a change to an evo, my other problem is i dont see the exclusivity because i see them on a daily basis in work.

Having not driven a 350 on the open road for a few years but remembering how fast it felt accelerating from 80mph, but since having tuned my impreza wrx in 4 stages did'nt realise how much the performance of the scoob had improved until i drove a 350z foot to the floor up a motorway onslip and was just totally dissapointed, as said my car is just a wrx not an sti, its a 2006 2.5 model "hawkeye" std power 230bhp ish but ive seen power at about 270, 330, 360 and now 380bhp/405lbs.ft with over 400lbs.ft at just 3000rpm, it also sounds great, handles well, is comfortable and quite refined, looks mean as hell, and i love it, but despite all this i did recently have the urge to buy a Z,
