  1. No problem with it but it just makes the exhaust sound that bit more tuneful. Not a must be them three are the cheapest worthwhile mods. If you need any advice I'm sure Paul will explain to you. I get that if your not keeping it for along time you want to keep your mods budget as low as possible.
  2. I thought you might. If your doing a lot of miles a remap from Paul at rstuning or Mark from abbey. It is 400 quid but the gains of more power and better fuel consumption then it might work out cheaper if you do. Personally exhaust, y pipe and a plenum spacer is the 3 main things you want IMO.
  3. How long you plan on keeping it? Did you know Gary G?
  4. £350 is the cheapest usually, bit email japspeed direct and ask them for a k2 and a y pipe and see if they can give you a discount. That's the setup I'm running and it's only loud if you flooring it. I have hi flo cats too.
  5. Dblock but I'm not that freqent of a poster. You gave me some good advice on an mx5 If you don't rag it then you should average that quite easily. Are you planning on nodding it? As a remap can sometimes add a mpg or two depending. lol no one is cool with the kids here unlike CS . 25mpg is about right. I get about 29mpg but at drive at night at 50mph on the duel carrige way but round town and a little bit of 50mph mixed in 25mpg sounds right. Without starting another war IMO its worth it to fill up with 99ron as you will get noticebly better mpg. How you going to drive it as in id imagine its your daily but on motorway, round town or both? Who were you on CS? I'd use it as a daily. So 20 mile commute each day. Done fully on B roads. My M3 used to average 26mpg on that route so i hope the Z will do roughly the same.
  6. I agree it may be eaiser to sell but the stamp isnt worth that much more. e.g. a fsh car might sell for say 10k and a non fsh for 9k lets say, You will have saved over 1k easily from not getting the stamps. A car that has been worked on is worth more to me personally as I know it will be done properly.

  8. 5-30 im sure. Personaly any good 5-30 or 5-40 is fine.
  9. From the cars you have come from Im not surprised, My 172 feels quicker until I look at the dash. There is no kick like a turbo or high end power like a 172 just a nice smooth curve. Its great for driving spirited without touching the limiter.
  10. 1k and 2k are types of paint 2 pack was a rapper No 2pac or tupac was a rapper Whats the difference betweeen 1k and 2k?
  11. My bodys shops round here probably woundnt do that as they are rubbish lol. Also what' I know this is off topic but what's 1k, 2k and 2 pack?
  12. Just the man I wanted to hear from. These smd LEDs are quite cool. The run at 12v I take it 5v would be if I wanted them dimmer? These are also 5mm flat tops which IMO look better than round tops although they will be hidden only the light will come out. Is there any particular LEDs that are better or brighter than others as I'm using it somewhere well lit anyway. Il be going for a strip around 5m. Thanks
  13. That would be me! Although I've moved now! Lol thought so.
  14. Ahh ok so i'l look for a dark Gray gunmetal colour and find a good shade on a car.
  15. Cheers, if they had a plug I could get a converter but it's just 2 wires. Il have a look for the step down. Cheers
  16. I have a question about smd led's. I want some smd led's and most of them are 12v DC and come with 2 wires. How would I wire this up or what could I get so I could plug them into 3 pin mains at home? Thanks
  17. Link for the seller mate? RTbiscuit, So would I just email them a paint code or tell them roughly what Im looking for? Also do they do a colour match in a tin as I want to flick the alloys in my body colour. Thanks click on the link above, next to the paint can is a button that says choose colour you cna then choose by vehicle and paint colour etc. I ment that for Woody but lol its right, Cheers RT problem is though Im not wanting the colour the in the aerosol the same as my car or the colour my car came with as its for the wheels and I wanted to go for a darker colour. Should I just drop them an email?
  18. TBH if you can fit an ls1 (which has a good throttle body postion) then anything is possible I suppose. Polo on here is fitting a 2jz and an Rb25/26 would fit with abit of fabrication for mounts Im sure this would work.

  20. I would like to refurb some wheels diy. I know what Im doing but I dont know the best place to get some paint from. It needs to be in an aerosol. Im also looking for a gun metaly dark silver colour. Most people have just said halfords but I hate spending money there. So anyone know any good places, I tried paints 4 u but cant find where there aerosol paint is and they only had 4 colours so I thought I was doing it wrong. Thanks
