Ian Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 I came from a turbo car. It takes a while to get used to the lack of boost but the power delivery is really smooth. I still miss a turbod car even after 18months in a Z Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GIXXERUK Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 the zed can be deceiving, its too smooth for its own good and can feel slower than it really is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zummertor Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 Welcome, lots written on clicky axle, best way to tell is windows down have a wall or similar to sides if possible and pull away slowly keeping revs down then slow down again and pull away again much as you would in a multi-story car park. If you have clicky then the sounds are a very metallic clink, I've tried recording them but it is hard to isolate from the exhaust sound on a recording, to start with the noise is a bit more of several little crackles (not unlike a breakfast cereal in rhythm) but say 4 or six then as it develops over time it becomes a much more distinct clink, say one or two then nothing which is why you need to do the slowing and pulling away to hear it. If you are only used to Turbo'd cars you'll find the zed deceptive as it can just pile on the speed (right foot dependent), if you really want the shove in the back then FI only thing that does that, more than a few done it but read up on it before you take the plunge. Enjoy forum and car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
