  1. to the forum! I am originally from Telford but now live abroad in Luxembourg where I own the Zed!
  2. I'd say that someone is messing with your car!

    Absolute nightmare! Did you get new discs then? Sub 8:30? That'd be impressive as the quoted time for a 350Z around the ring is 8:26! Suppose it depends on the mods you're looking at! My trip was pretty decent, was pretty hungover though! I think I was around the 10 minute mark for my lap, seeing as there was a lot of traffic on the ring, and I was being cautious! You find any good pics of you guys lapping the ring?
  4. Wish I could but I have other plans in place already! June is usually a busy month of events! Really been wanting to go for years though!
  5. It is as a base car. The Vaydor wide body kit costs around $11,000 and doesn't change any of the internals apparently! but it is a G35 underneath
  6. Has anyone seen these?! I'm not sure how to add a link to the website unfortunately, but if you search Google Images for "Vaydor body kit G35", you'll see what I'm talking about. It's what they are using on the Suicide Squad movie for the Joker's car. Each to their own and everything, but I think it looks amazing!

    It was an English license plate on the 370Z... so it could be!

    Someone also stacked a 370Z roadster into the Armco barrier on the day I was there (23rd) new bumper, wings and a bonnet at least I'd say! :-S

    No worries. I was messaging Daveyboy the night before and he let me know of some issues you guys were having! I heard that one of the Zeds had some brake judder at high speed though? What sort of lap times did you guys get in? It was absolutely manic for me going round on Saturday... had Ferrari 458s, a Lamborghini Huracan and GTRs up my backside the whole way round! I was near to the two 350Zs that had come up from Switzerland (in the car park). Would love to join next time anyone is heading down!

    I didn't manage to meet up with the DaveyBoy or Luke as they had car problems (the TT and Cooper that were with them). Had a great day though! Ended up on the Youtube highlights video getting overtaken by a tuned Z4 and 458 italia though! Really looking forward to another trip down there if anyone's doing it soon
  11. Already got some pretty decent tyres on it at the moment :-)
  12. In terms of the headlight casing, you can always clean that up really well with toothpaste... should help a bit, but as for the bulb I am not so sure!
  13. Just thinking I'm gonna go simply with Plenum spacer and then remap. The guys at the garage reckon I will get 30bhp gain but I am not convinced of that.
  14. I am terrible when it comes to even the simplest of tasks with the Zed! However, that thought did cross my mind! Any other mods that might be a good idea? (preferably subtle that won't be seen - i.e. plenum spacer)?
  15. I've been wanting to fit some Berk HFCs to my accompany my Invidia Gemini Cat back for quite some time now, but the strict regulations over here require that you have a certificate for any upgraded parts fitted to the car in order to pass our equivalent of an MOT. So finally today, I found myself at a local specialist shop for dynos/remaps etc, and asked the question. It seems that over here in Luxembourg, HFCs are forbidden to be fitted onto road legal cars. I knew I was limited with what I could do when I bought the car, but this has really irritated me. On the positive side, I am looking into getting a plenum spacer and a JWT pop charger... any other ideas for relatively cost effective mods would be appreciated for performance gains? I am looking to get a remap done, and would like to know what else might be a good idea to fit prior to this.

    Looks like Saturday is the day I'm heading up to see you guys! I'm excited too!

    I can imagine! Yeah, should be good. I had to put the Invidia on because my OEM broke at the usual spot (between midpipe and backbox). Shame to change it really because it sounded AMAZING. From what my mate said, it actually spit fire on the motorway a bit before I changed the system!
  19. From the looks of it, it doesn't seem to be anything that could compete with the laferrari, p1 or 918... then again, that's just aesthetically speaking.

    Ah nice! Mine is pretty standard too... Invidia Gemini cat back, Exedy Clutch and lightweight flywheel, spacers... not bothered with a remap yet though. Want to get some HFCs, pop charger and plenum spacer, but don't have the money or certificates yet
  21. Very nice! How easy was it to install the hood dampers?

  24. Was the purple your choice of colour? haha I suppose speed was your air con in the end!
