The G Man Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 I know chippy has a thread on one of these, but hopefully tomorrow I'll be able to post some piccies of the fitting. It's being done at a place called the Garage in Motherwell. They specialise in Skylines and a few other Jap cars. Spoke to the boss Mark today and he seems a very nice bloke, we're gonna have a good old chat while it's being fitted, he seemed to understand that I didn't want to wait till next week to have it fitted , "Are you gaggin to have it fitted", me "Yeah", him "Bring it in, in the morning and we'll put it on a ramp first thing" Bit excited now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cragus Posted January 27, 2011 Share Posted January 27, 2011 Garage is five minutes from me. Lots of good reviews - they are my 2nd choice service centre. Only person I know in a reasonable distance that I would trust more on a zed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The G Man Posted January 27, 2011 Author Share Posted January 27, 2011 Just a tad too far for this wee jobby, not to say I won't use his services in the future Gotta try and fit it all in the Z, 5miles with all that rattling about inside will be traumatic enough She's gonna get it when fitted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The G Man Posted January 28, 2011 Author Share Posted January 28, 2011 It's on Pics to follow, must say The Garage were brill, can't recommend them highly enough and they certainly know their stuff, had a good look round the GTR's, Supras, RX7's and some other insanely powerful stuff. Top bloke Mark The mechanic that was fitting it got Mark to fit the tips after I told them how much they alone cost Well chuffed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The G Man Posted January 28, 2011 Author Share Posted January 28, 2011 Look forward to seeing this! What's the difference in sound like? Does it make the 370 sound the way it should? immediately went down the Clyde Valley with her, roads were very greasy, nearly had an off Once it's "bedded" in and coked up it'll get a bit growlier There was however an immediate difference in oomph!!! The slight extra torque, easier breathing and the 13 (claimed)horses was evident. The sound is magic Now you can hear a real growl instead of just the big engine sound, I'm soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo happy I could, and did, kiss my Akrapovic Like a dog with two lipsticks at the moment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
