  1. yup They were invented for this everything else just looks wrong imo
  2. IMO a bumper tuck looks wrong on everything except a single exit
  3. Pics & vids will have to wait This map has pretty much maxed out the MAF so to run anymore boost I'm gonna need to upgrade that & can then maybe try with the smaller pulley but atm I'm happy & for the amount I use the car I will probably stay happy with it
  4. Decats are now off the car & ready to go for £70 Make me an offer on the grounding kit & rad cap
  5. I'll sell it for £25K
  6. Hell no, i'm not that good at it I just leave the TC & ABS on, unless i'm in a drifty mood
  7. I still look daily & if I got a good offer on the Z then I'd sell it Pretty smooth apart from my inability to tighten jubilee clips properly & the leaky radiator was a pain in the arse Thanks. You should try it
  8. Oh it will and everyone will wish they had the 360 and FM3 all along Some had both I never really got into Forza 3 tbh, it was a bit easy to make money & buy the best cars
  9. what about brakes Ian? are you still on standard brembos? I like the look of some k-sport hmmmmm Yup still on oem disks & pads I'll upgrade them as & when they need doing. I only use the car on the road so I think that a BBK will be overkill so I will probably just get some decent disks and pads
  10. I grannied it most of the way home, I think I only went above 3K RPM a few times The noise is insane though, especially at around 2k when the boost is starting to pick up, I cant even hear the s/c or bpv
  11. Thanks I'm delighted with the car now, its pretty much perfect although maybe a bit loud The only money I plan to spend on the car (after I have fitted the parts I have left to fit) is for maintenance items, my car is pretty much complete Some graphs

    That was my list when I planned to go TT My car is finished now though only thing I will spend money on now is maintenance items

    From memory it was Pistons Rods Headgaskets Cams Valve Springs Rev up oil pump studs bolts And a few other bits After speaking to mark though, the most logical thing to do is fit a HR engine & boost that since its good for about 500hp on stock internals
  14. another example of the phase "search is your friend" hey Ian
  15. This is a much easier way. I've had mine secured like this for years with no problems

    I priced up forged internals a while back and got to about 4.5K including cams - BUT labour was more than that
  17. Quite a bit of mechanical work, not helped by my radiator deciding to leak leading to much of the s/c needing to come out If there hadnt been a car in front of me, I'd have had him, instead I had to pull in behind him & then he wouldn't move out of the way (was coming out of the average speed cameras on the M4 & he looked over & accelerated, so I joined in - there was a car ahead of me though ) Was pretty even but I think I just had that bit more from a rolling start of 50. Also had a Gallardo pass me but there was noway I was being humiliated by that Took it pretty easy coming home, I've barely driven the car in about 9 months so it took me a while to adjust to it
  18. I bought a PS3 about 2 years ago just so I could get GT5 for it. I sold my PS3 last week & have given up all hope of ever seeing GT5 appear Xbox360 FTMFGDW
  19. HP is better than expected but torque was a bit lower. Really happy with it though
  20. Just back from Abbey after an epic drive home I fear I may be slightly deaf though, you will definatley hear me on Saturday before you see me, possibly a long time before you see me Figures 380 WHP / 420 ATF 350 Ft/Lb Torque 7.5 Psi I'll get my graphs up later but right now the chinese is calling me Car absolutley flies now as I'm sure the driver of the DB9 I encountered on the way home will agree Car performed flawlessley on the way home, There is a small hickup when starting the car when the engine is warm but its not effecting it from starting. I used just over a 1/4 tank of petrol coming home (around 170miles) Very happy
