Stutopia Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Is the agreed Zed specified for Challenge 2 the one they describe as "Nissan Fairlady Z Version S (Z33) '07"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
longsh07 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Im happy with that. Im mean im not bothered about it being premium car or not to be honest but I think if others prefer premium then im happy. And the only changes allowed on the car are pit services to keep the car in good nick correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyberfella Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 I've made a note of the challenges and will post my times up once i've done them. What's everyones best nurburgring nordschleife lap time (clean enough to be recorded) in any car? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the one, it's orange in the dealership and listed with 308 hp I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can only perform oil changes and I guess restore body and engine, but I doubt any of us will put enough miles on it to need a rebuild. So, the increase body rigidity item in pit stop is a no no.

longsh07 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 The increase body rigidity only restores it to factory I believe though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The restore rigidity does that, but the increase adds new weld points. ***I believe*** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ozwald Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Silverstone 2:12.662 There's more time to be found but I just can't keep it all together, which is frustrating and makes my times even slower. The vicious cycle! haha! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vansman66 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 I'll get the ball rolling on Tsukuba- 1:04.188 not very good at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stutopia Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 (edited) Wow the Zed is heavy in stock trim compared to the Lotus. I've not touched anything, not even brake balance or ballast (not that she needs any, very well balanced). Tokyo R246 Forward - 1:59.808 - There's a second or two in that as well. Suzuka Circuit - 2:23.962 - what a great circuit! Tsukuba - 1:03.637 - just a short run on here, this could be my new Goodwood Edited January 28, 2014 by SuperStu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stutopia Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 I wouldn't be too worried about those times Vansman! I'm finding it really tough getting to grips with an unmodifiable car, not loving these tyres. Needs some MPSS 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe we should vote to allow sport soft tyres on the Zed? Edited January 29, 2014 by longsh07 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apologies I'm on the phone and meant to post the direct link to amazon. I follow post a bargain on twitter. They've been tweeting some great deals. I've actually ordered this now as at that price it's worth a look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyleR Posted January 29, 2014 Author Share Posted January 29, 2014 Sorry dude, that mong bit wasn't aimed at you, just the eBay losers Just gave Tsukuba a run. 1:02.858 there's a couple of tenths in that I think 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KyleR Posted January 29, 2014 Author Share Posted January 29, 2014 Yup, my fat fingers fooked it up 1:59.3 in Tokyo with I think at least another second in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stutopia Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 There's some nice times coming up for Challenge 2 already, starting to think I just got very lucky with my suspension setup on the Louts giving me a competitive edge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stu, would you be ok with sharing your setup for the Elise? I'm curious to see if your setup is significantly different from mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
