Ahh, the joys!! Best thing about bodywork is the technicolour bogeys!

Surprised no-one has pulled out the old Corsa picture that used to do the rounds which had 8-10 pipes (plus the tube that used to own it!)

Cheers Ian, My original post was poorly worded, appreciate the need for header swap and additional flange to go TT

I am resigned to the fact that I will probably pull the engine to fit them, I am no stranger to spanners and I have made peace with that already The problem I have with that is that will be the temptation to do more while its out...very slippery slope! 12hp gains are reasonable in the grand scheme of things and will support the future package nicely. @keyser or tarmac - are the ceramic stillens mild or stainless?

I have been doing some investigation on exhaust headers and quite like the look of the Stillens (as they would match the rest of the system) Very few people on here seem to have ever changed headers - except for TT - is that because the effort outweighs the gains or for some other reason? My future plans include a super charger and a Cosworth plenum - so if there is benefit to the headers then I will...if not, then I won't - Simples!

Surfing, as you do, the classifieds of Pistonheads - looks like Jay's old car is available for a new handler http://classifieds.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/nissan/350z/nissan-350z-matte-orange/906777

I'm not a million miles from there...could be convinced for a drive out although I am turning old in early December!

Well after the mass turn out for the local meet today, thought I would post the pics up... Meeting everyone at South Mimms - even the kit car lot (all two of them) turned out a better meet!! Then it was off to the pub to meet everyone else...time for a few scenic group shots On the way out of the pub, I noticed a nice Church backdrop...so we took turns in the layby in front (queue was pretty short - so I had a few go's) Then before a bit of a scenic route home, I stopped off at Jag just for a nose...this was hiding out the back All in all, a fun day - turnout was a bit disappointing but the roads and the drive were well worth the trip!

More interested in when you get back...see you in a battered oap and family wagon club sandwich

Finally treated myself to the Zacapa....smooth as a velvet cod piece - it gets me all unneccesscary!!

Thanks All...few avenues for me yet then! I am hoping to be able to both sit in and drive it tomorrow, fingers crossed!

BA11 SAK has to be in there somewhere?! I have always sat on the fence regarding private plates as near me there are some truely tragic examples - K15 SME, B10 WME, L12 KME jumping to mind - I am more leaning to getting one but I just can't find anything that takes my fancy or is obvious enough not to look stupid

Not even an offer to come and give me a rub down or walk on my back in your kitten heels? That's a brave thing to say to SMD - the doorbell will be ringing soon Bring it on...I've had one seeing to this morning, I could probably manage a second now

Thanks Toad - I am working on that and should be allowed to get back to the gym early next week for very light work - I just need to work on pacing myself which is where I usually struggle Will give the towel a try to start with - we have the Herts, Beds and Bucks drive out this weekend - which I am keen to make!

Having slipped a disk in the last couple of weeks I am now almost mobile enough to be getting up and about and into the car again - this is excellent news as I am fed up of looking at the ceiling!! Having just sat in the car and played with the seat adjusters as much as I can, it is still lacking lumbar support. There are rafts of aftermarket supports online, but all look pretty useless. Has anyone got anything in their Zed that they would recommend or do I just need to take a punt on something and see how it goes? Sorry for the old fart type question - but it is support or the car has to go and thats not happening if I can do anything about it!

+1 - a good caliper service could be in order Rear pads seem to have a tendancy to stick, I would start there

Something on hill parking - pointing wheels to the curb or parking in gear - saves you and others in the event of handbrake failure. Not such a concern now most kids are getting new cars but when I was at school and freshly passed, my mate had a clio that we could roll around to hide it as his handbrake was so knackered!

Spot on, thanking you Sir!

Connection to and installation of the module - there was a procedure about ignition on and timings and the like

Has anyone got a copy of the bluetooth guide squirrel'd away somewhere? There are a couple in the guide section but they are both broken links that could do with a refresher! Cheers Chris
