  1. And how much is that kit? Looks a bit better than the kit I have
  2. That will be gone in a matter of second then!
  3. Burning smell is not good, but if its dissapearing then I guess theres not a lot you can do! Definately didnt get it when mine was fitted at Phils last year. Also, you might miss the difference the plenum spacer makes if you are used to driving more spiritedly. I do a lot of m-way miles and notice the difference quite considerable. M-way cruising you can put your foot down and get a noticably bigger punt in mid range. If I drove it like I stole it everywhere though, I dont think I'd notice.
  4. Thus why i have a 03 jdm lol Is it guarenteed to work on a 03 JDM? I thought it was only the very early models that dont zero out changes? I.e. 2002 and if you are lucky early 2003? Have you had it dyno'd to see if its adapting and giving more power?
  5. I dont trust repaired tyres after I had one blow out round a rounderbout in my old Clio. Was amazed I could hold it, but managed to get it to the side of the road without damage. I wasnt going half the speed I take corners in my Zed so I wouldnt trust one on my car now. Rather pay £150 (or even £300 to have them both done) than have another blow out. Was probably unlucky but its put me off for sure.
  6. Yes Cookies getting deleted? Wouldnt have thought both would do it, but its been fine for me since, well, forever
  7. there was a thread about the ebay ones somewhere discussing the guage of cable used and how effective it is Yeah go with Spills or at least use decent wire. Most of the cheaper ones on ebay arent worth the hassle. Spill and Beavis know thier stuff, so stick to good cable. I have a Spills kit btw

    Different z

    I think you'll find that coasting (to quote an online dictionary) is "To move without further use of propelling power.". This means in gear or out of gear is irrelevant. Being in neutral or dipping the clutch, its the same thing and it will cause you to fail your driving test as it is dangerous. Each to their own, but I think its damn dangerous, and you must be very confident of all other road users if you think you can judge when its safe to do, you never know where a danger is going to come from. Try doing some safe slalom in the car when you are in neutral, it behaves differently to in gear, and can be quite unstable. Just letting off the throttle will cut most of the fuel to the engine and is meant to use less fuel than at idle as the momentum of the car moving can pull the engine around a little (with a little help from the engine) but certainly uses less fuel than coasting and letting the car idle while you do it. Why not try both for a month and report back on what you find? Anyway, enough with the rant
  9. Its JWTs stupid name for an induction kit. its basically your bog standard cone filter, plus it has a venturi ring which is meant to smooth out the airflow. As far as laymans terms, its an induction kit
  10. It is pure fluke as to whether you have good grounding as stock. Some do, some dont. I didnt notice a massive difference after fitting mine, but idle is smoother as is slow manouvering. Give it a go and see, you know you want to. If it does sod all, flog it on here, someone else will gladly have it

    New mod!

    Looks good mate! Can Paul do them with Cree Q5 LEDs? Got me a Fenix L2D the other day and its stoooopidly bright for a single LED. Wire them up like that and you wont need headlights
  12. No idea on the dot, sure its been mentioned before, try using the search function

    He has all the main traders workshops bugged

    My New Toy

    Sure a delimiter can be arranged
  15. Well I never thought I'd get there! Just keep posting and you'll have a sticker before you know it
  16. Should work if you have the ignition on. I have a generic ELM327 in mine. What status lights does it have on the unit itself? I take it windows has the driver installed and it recognises it?
  17. Awesome! I want me one of them
  18. What pedal mod was that? sounds pretty cool! +1 - we want details!

    New mod!

    Did I miss it?! Has Stew revealled what hes had done yet?!
  20. Nice one, just need to make it to Vet now
  21. Dont bother with wheel brushes, they put some swirlies on my rays! Now do as GIXX says and use an old washmit, they work twice as well if not even better. Doesnt scratch nowt either
  22. Congrats! First drive in it will take away any woes you have I'm thinking the same with mine now. 53 reg, 52k miles, its going to be worth sod all! Think I might get me some turbos, suspension, brakes, etc to tide me over til the 370z has been out long enough to get one second hand. Then I might just put parts of the 350 on display in my house. Motor into a living room table me thinks ala TG!
  23. Yup saw that too. Got loads of pics of Evos (funnily enough), the records attempt was good fun. Got a ride in my mates Evo for the attempt and a ride in one of the faster ones as part of the track day. They seriously are track weapons, but I couldnt live with one every day. This one had few tweaks running 380BHP with AP brakes and slick tyres which was intersting given the weather!
