I drive about in mine round Farnham, Odiham etc. most days. Pic in my profile.

I don't know why, but I kind of think of you as "Mr. Big Stuff", you know, Exhausts, Turbo kits etc. Anyway, I'll PM you

Hello everyone, I am a bit stuck, so I'm asking for a bit of help! HID blown — which one to buy and how to fit? I've had a good search about but cannot find a thread on this. The nearside HID light has failed on my car, and I'd like to find a guide on what type to buy to replace it, and how to replace it. 7-rib idler — where to buy? One of the bearings has failed on an idler for the supercharger. It is one that was moved to the supercharger mounting plate from elsewhere on the engine as part of the new belt path. Does anyone know of a decent supplier of pulleys for this kind of application? Preferably in the UK as I've paid quite enough in import duties lately! Update: Photos and a quick vid. of the idler on my dropbox Mucho thanks, Dominic

Oh dear. One of the headlights has failed. Is there a DIY on swapping out a HID?

Screw that! These are made for driving, not posing! Get out in it!! (Says he, playing with a 370 on an Xbox)

We got an xbox for our daughter to play Minecraft. I just found Forza, and that you can not only race a 370z, but you can colour and customise it too. I remember when I used to be a geek… Oh, wait.

As soon as they have sorted it, I'm first in the queue for it! cheers for the info Mark. Behind me you mean Race you! :-P (On a private road)

I would prefere aggressive/functional as in designed to get the airflow in there and certainly different... I like to be different And I'm glad we each do as we please. Life would be dull with identical cars—these are an extension of our personalities and preferences and long may it continue!

Darren, that's spot on! Jez mentioned doing something like this for my car exactly as per Josh's. I think I shall see how deep that rabbit hole goes when I speak with him on the 3rd.

I don't mean the shroud, I actually mean fabricating a divider to partition the airflow into a clean, cold air side for the intake, and a radiators side for the oil, intercooler, power steering etc. I understand that the shroud you mention to address turbulence around the MAFs.

Agreed Josh — Jez said he has a contact that can fab them to order. We'll move the coolers about, free up some space, measure up and get something in that keeps the clean look of the car (whilst actually taking some heat out of the system). Nic — I hever had much in the way of problems with heat before I had the oil cooler. Before, if it was a baking hot day and I was sitting in traffic then it would ping a little at light load but as soon as I moved off this would clear, so the cooling was working fine. That oil rad is just McD's apple pie hot.

D'oh. The pulley in question is a 7-rib idler which is from the motor, it is moved to this new position during the installation of the supercharger. Perhaps it doesn't like the heat up there. I wonder where to order an idler from? The supercharger installation instructions show on page 12, step 9: "Remove the 7rib idler in photo 17.Keep it as it will be installed onto the supercharger assembly later." Then on page 18, step 11: "Install the 7 rib idler removed earlier onto the blower plate using the supplied spacer and hardware. Reinstall the lower idler. (photo 38)"

I did indeed. That Stillen fascia is quite vicious, and not really to my taste though. Prefer my sort of sleeper look. Reggie is fine at the moment since the ECU reset, probably went into a safe map after detecting some knock in the hot weather. Booked in for Aug 3rd to move the oil cooler, and either install a second stillen cooler in serial or go bespoke and fabricate a cooler that *will* fit in the space available. Also to divide off the airflow from the oil cooler and the intakes. It looks like the pulley is shagged, so will see about a replacement under warranty or order one direct from SCOL.

Quite a line-up

I'm looking into the frozenboost. Going to see Nic's install, hopefully a peek at the White 370 at Horsham tomorrow and see if I can get a really solid fit. That's a heavy item and I'm not having it mounted with any play or vibration, as aluminium will fatigue and fail if there's wobble...

Lol!

Argh. Tapatalk is rubbish! It said these didn't post!

I spoke to Jez about this actually. Sounds wise. Also about he frozenboost, and actually that my heat issues only started when I got the oil cooler! That thing is a huge heat pump straight into the inlet. Nick has managed to fit his frozen boost .... May well be worth chatting to him about the install . I'll let you know how the rest of the work goes with mine as it would be beneficial for yours also if it all works . Where is your oil cooler located ? On the right as you look at the front , directly under the air filters? Bang central, next to the intakes.
