  1. Agreed and to be fair there's a lot more to the numbers, looks, appreciation, drivability, and of course the forum
  2. This makes me feel a lot better about my 261 If you look at the "dyno results thread" everyone is super unhappy with their stock or tuned results because Nissan told big fat lies.
  3. Also the published book figures for ALL 350's is wrong. Take it from manufacture to a dyno and you'll never see the book figures. I think mine was 245 at the hubs when just two years old.
  4. Motordyne claim 11-13hp which is I've not heard of being achieved. 5-9hp is more realistic with TQ following just behind those numbers. ANY air in, air out mods need a remap to reward the gains. The standard airbox is supposed to give slight gains over aftermarket. Best to build a small list of mods and get the remap done all at once. To be fair though there's no harm in having an Uprev done, say with a spacer or exhaust. Then going back further down the line with decats and maybe a mrev2. The second tune is only charged at Dyno and Mapping time. The licence cost is during the initial Uprev tune and installed on the ECU.
  5. You'll get roughly 25 miles of added benefit before the ECU has learnt and mapped the increased airflow. Engine noise/growl is there all the time which is a bonus.
  6. Take some really good pictures, get a pro in iff necessary and have pics in the garage or round the house. That's what I'd do, until the Mrs turns around and says "no we are not having Cossi wallpaper!!"
  7. Why have something stored that doesn't go anywhere, that's not pleasure that's just holding onto something for the sake of it. Ok so it's an investment and as paid off, take the profit and buy something you can enjoy.
  8. If you're thinking of having an engine rebuild rather than buying a second hand motor like I linked then one person to speak to that springs to my mind is Keyser. Here is his build thread; http://www.350z-uk.c...date-25th-july/ I'm sure he could give you a few pointers. If your not going to do something silly like a 2JZ or LSx engine swap Silly? You mean logical
  9. No worries matey glad to have helped
  10. Revup is generally better on FI over DE. Only downside is the option for second hand revup SC's due to the bracket, don't come round very often. But then, new is always better, you know its fresh and no need to worry if a second hand unit has been looked after or not.
  11. Get one super quick? Cos you'll only need a further remap with the MREV.
  12. Okay here goes, we shall start with a standard DE. Plenum spacer fitted will exceed the spacer performance gains over that of a GT4 and Revup - because the DE tunes better. Just the way it is. GT4/Revup A spacer alone will provide some gains but in order to gain over and above a plenum spacer on a DE you'll need a Motordyne MREV 2 lower plenum. A GT4/Revup will then gain more than a DE with just a spacer. Two ways to resolve the GT4/Revup. 1. Get a used or new MREV 2 2. Get hold of a DE lower plenum. Shave the front two ports flat which is all a MREV 2 is. I have a modified DE lower plenum with shaved ports and it performs exactly the same as the MREV 2 Considering what Motordyne charge, modifying a DE lower collector if done correctly will provide the necessary gains. Abbey will I'm sure suggest you buy a MREV 2 from them to see nice gains. To be honest the DE tunes better NA with added mods. GT4/Revup gain better power with FI, and furthermore with HR. Although the upper hand with GT4/Revup is the higher rev limit. So what is lost in lesser gains is resolved by a longer power band. Horses for courses really.

    That's why I didn't mention them even prior to Zmans post. All couriers can be @*!#, its a bit of a gamble. I had something destined for a location. They lost the parcel, found it again at a different depot 100 miles away! Clever bastards!!

Have not had a good ole session for ages. I've been practicing! Ha funny you say that every status on your Fb seems to be ' in a pub garden somewhere having a drink ' Helps me sleep...... Okay the truth is we enjoy country pubs and folk life. Winter soon log fire will be lot soon with a nice bottle of red. Sounds good my man! Even more off topic but you still doing detailing work?

  18. Can you not just put an extension on and just incorporate the pub into your house I've already had a chat with them for a barrel of beer. Discount price, already found the necessary pump and lines just need my man cave to be built then I have my own pub Please please do this! I think it was +200 pints for like £260 or something like that. Was super cheap. Give them a bonus wager for the privilege and we are all quids in. Okay so it's not as cheap as a can but +200 pints doesn't mean heading to tescos with a BIG trolley!!

  21. Well that too. The first night I got my nephew to run over to the pub, get the restaurant menu and we sat in our lounge deciding what to eat.
  22. Great Bourton just 5 mins from Banbury. Nice little Village. Best part of our new location is it takes exactly 22 seconds from our back door to the front door, and 12 seconds from our rear door to the rear door OF THE PUB!
  23. Must be an iPhone thing. I see upside down things
  24. Nah we've done out moving for the next ten years. I've just not turned off the Rightmove alerts yet Posh apartments ended up in the price range but were immediately dismissed.
