  1. Plastic bag stuck under your car. Just a guess.
  2. I have an Invidia Gemini exhaust system on mine which I love. Great quality true dual system with a fair price to match. Quick video of mine revving up (bare in mind my Zed is FI with De-Cats though so it will sound a little different on your Zed): I do like the Ark exhaust system but if I had to do it again and was spending over £1K then I'd definitely try to get the little extra cash together to get the Motordyne TDX2 & Art pipes. Link to video sound of the system on a HR Zed: Tarmac Sportz price: http://www.tarmacsportz.co.uk/GB/TDX2_With_Titanium_Tips/350MDTDX.aspx Something to think about.
  3. Sounds cool Keith and it will get your Zed noticed but honestly I'd say you wouldn't want to live with it, ....especially if you had to go for a long trip in the Zed.
  4. It's difficult to say exactly and depends on so many variables including what mods you have already, what state the engine is in now etc etc but either way you will never really get a lot extra out of these cars without going FI or by having a built engine. It's not all about the extra Bhp you gain though as it can help make the car's drive ability much better especially if you have added mods as the UpRev mapper will be able to adjust everything to run smoothly together giving you hopefully a more linear power curve. Have a read of the info below from Horsham Developments where I had my two UpRevs from (once on my Zed when it was N/a & again after I went FI). Source/link to Horsham Developments: http://www.h-dev.co.uk/index2.php?page=350z_mapping Price wise Horsham are quoting £399.99 for the UpRev on an N/a Zed. As an example though when I had my car (2003 350Z DE) remapped the first time it went from 282.7Bhp to 293.4Bhp and it had these mods: Berks HFC's, Invidia Gemini Exhaust system, Horsham Developments plenum spacer & a Stillen air induction kit. So on paper it only gained around 10Bhp odd but with the remap the 155mph top speed limiter was removed, the initial acceleration in the first few gears was greatly improved and I felt it made a good improvement to the way the car drove overall. Whatever you decide to do though it is always best to get all your performance related mods done first before any UpRev as otherwise you'll just have to pay to have another UpRev done again if you add mods at a later date. Fyi ~ Regarding the EML being on you can buy code readers from eBay for around £20-£30 which can read the codes for you so that way you'll know for certain what it is and also you'll be able to turn the EML off, ....although it will come on again if it's the De-Cats/O2 sensors causing the EML in the first place.
  5. I'm guessing it's a solid EML rather than flashing? If it's flashing then you shouldn't drive the car but if it's solid it's ok to drive. You need to read the code to see exactly what it is though just to be safe but I'd say it was your O2 sensors. Perfectly normal to happen with De-Cats being added I'd say. If it is: You could try O2 spacers (£12 each from Clark Motorsport) to see if that stops the EML from coming on (unlikely but does work for some) ~ live with it or get an UpRev which when done the mapper can turn it off permanently for you.
  6. Didn't rain from what I just heard, ...think it was more like hail. Look forward to the video Chris.
  7. Well after noticing your for sale thread I thought I'd look in here to see if I missed a post from you about the accident. Terrible damage really and not surprised if the insurers have written it off. Such a shame. Good luck with it all.
  8. Sorry to hear about your 350 Matt. GLWTS though.
  9. Here's a picture of the 350Z exhaust set up to make it easier to see. Basically replace part numbers 4, 6 & 8 with an aftermarket exhaust system.
  10. ^^ Liked that Will, ...now if we could only get someone to do that to the BSM instructors in this country that would be great.
  11. I haven't played GT6 for a long time now but do love that game. Never got into the PC gaming but then I never really had access to a good PC but have always had access to games consoles. Add me still though if you like, ...Advanced Warfare is probably one of the best COD games in years.
  12. Watched a bit more of that video, ....got distracted though by your Black Ops 2 videos. I'm on PS3 (same name as here) ~ mainly play "COD: Advanced Warfare" so add me as a friend if you're on a PS3.
  13. Worth a look. Thanks buddy. No probs, ...bit expensive I know but thought I'd give you the option just in case it was affordable to you.
  14. Looked like a fairly nice smooth drive tbh in both sessions, ...I did skip a lot of the video though as they where pretty long. Feel sorry for the Porsche owner as that's never a nice thing to happen or see.
  15. Link: http://uk.monsoon.co.uk/view/product/uk_catalog/mon_4.10/7200152009 Any good?
  16. Bet you wish you still had that Zed, ...would be worth a pretty penny nowadays in good condition. Definitely better than my first car, although it was a Nissan albeit a 998cc Mk1 Micra.
  17. Loving the gold colour, ...not seen one done in that colour before so kudos for being different.
  18. Welcome aboard Adrian, ....think Sams covered all your problems. With that list of mods it really should be remapped as your not getting any of the benefits having them. You're not going to get huge numbers but still at least you'll know the cars correctly mapped for all the mods the car has.
