M13KYF Posted March 22, 2006 Share Posted March 22, 2006 First is good for me. Down to Kuro. Junction 14 services?

Could meet there at 7.40am If you wanna stick with original place,and time, fine Can just pick up the M56 off the M60 Junction 6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Removed Posted March 26, 2006 Share Posted March 26, 2006 hello all!!!!!!!!!! was a GREAT DAY! :yahoo: enjoyed every minute of it, even the early (VERY) drive, meet with Mike (M13KYF), and then Mark (MAX) and misses No shows: Jacko and Kuro (organiser! ) shame, you missed a great day out for a great cause! So, 3 members in all, representing our Club. We had a good chat with Mike Brewer, who LOVES the 350Z, he tested lots of tyres for Nissan when they were developing the 350Z together with other journalists in 2002 before the UK launch, they chose TOYOS, but apparently Nissan couldn't go with them! So we ended up with the RE040s He loved the cars, we got a mention off him when he was presenting the prizes for the day, but sadly noone won I then attempted a Rolling Road session on the Mobile one they had there (apparently the same guys that did the Northwich OC NW rolling road session). First run the guy let off @ 5300RPMs the weirdo, so I told him to let it bounce off the rev limiter, in the second run, but apparently heat soak was already a factor according to them. also said the other Zs did come out with more or less the same numbers as mine... Anyway, after plenum, intake, cats and exhaust (and after rolling in 2005 at the NW dyno day 274 @ the crank and 237@ the wheels) I now push......... 244,9BHP at the crank! according to them! :lol: Now I definitely don't think my car lost 30bhp with my mods, I'd feel it. Even on the way back, the ehm "runs" with Mike's standard Z were definitely even (if not edging in my favour, despite bouncing off the REV limiter a couple of gears ) so........ bottom line is....... WE NEED THE UTEC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! pics here http://www.350z-uk.com/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=48 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M13KYF Posted March 26, 2006 Share Posted March 26, 2006 Yes most enjoyable day. Mike Brewer seemed very keen on the 350z and I managed to slip him a card for his sound guy who also has a 350z. Nice to meet up with Val, Mark and Karen. Val, as for edging in your favor. I didn't know we were trying. I was just cruising Don't think their rolling road was that good though. Seemed a bit cowboy. Some more pictures. Val do you want to add them to the meet gallery as I can't. http://www.350z-uk.com/gallery/thumbnails.php?album=50 EDIT from TheMinel: added them to the gallery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
