Aem sensor upgrade, help with fitment
as you'll be asking lots of questions I suggest you search. pretty sure kirbz put a post up on it otherwise there's a sticky on the aem forum. map sensor just needs a vac line and AIT needs welding to the intake pipe next to the throttlebody.

Why oh why...?
lwb vs swb is a huge difference in how they drive, try one out, and then chuck it round a roundabout, you'll be surprised.:yes:

Why oh why...?

vivid racing parts
it's for swb and was looking for £300. It's been powder coated black and is a very snug fit to the interior Dave, you guessed right, dropped it off yesterday:tank:

I have mine for sale if you're interested? Autopower 4 point bolt-in with harness bar. Someone else is considering it at the moment but should now in the next day or so.

Do you love or hate these wheels
I was thinking, if money is not a limiting factor, get some genuine BBS LM's

Do you love or hate these wheels
umm, no, these are well and good if you like stretched tires. But to get decent rubber on the tires these offsets are far too agressive. You want a 285 tire given the power you're going for. You can run 9.5" with up to +35 (still pushing it a bit, pretty sure Topless had to have a small arch roll to stop the odd rub with that setup) or a 10" with +40.

new wheels
very nice, stuggling to believe the weights though, that's insanely light.

Cant boost past 17-18psi, causes?! expert opinoins plz jimmer? legrath? jeff? smithy?
lymon makes sense, for reference, my base boost is 18psi to let me get to higher boost levels

what happens when driving and it hits 18psi? does it fall over itself/stumble or just steadily drop down again. Are the wastegates actually closing properly?

Who has the most powerful ZX in the UK?
agree with Legarth CJ's car is now bobgenie's and is a new setup, plus Thor results are hub not rear wheel so cannot be compared. Machine's was not at Thor, which is good, but it sold and no longer in the country Kirbz's is no longer together and the parts are spread out all over the country :) So the only big bhp cars I know of with dyno proven rwhp AND on the road are Bobgenie 504rwhp mine 494 rwhp on current tune (516 peak previously) Bazz 514 at Hub (Thor dyno) Silverbullit 425 rwhp I believe Macca's is in a bodyshop and as previously mentioned, no dyno graphs until he feels it's finished. Hope this doesn't offend anyone and apologies if I missed someone out, but there's so much mis-information, speculation and bullshit on this thread in places that it's getting silly

Happy Birthday Jaffa

snow shots of the Z :)
guys, travelling back to wales (Carmarthen) at the weekend. Are the main roads ok, tempted to take the Zed :)

Another will these wheels fit question
the rear offsets are too aggressive so you'll have to run slimer tires to compensate, not good if you're going for big power

Propshaft advice
that's weird, if it was the prop you'd expect it to be related to road speed not engine speed.

Propshaft advice
is it at 2000rpm regardless of gear?

HICAS ECU Delete??
out of interest, what does an NA Z use to control the PS?

ECU and Chip question
Just as an FYI, I used to run the JWT twin pop setup with dual AFM's and used the AFC to 'add' the airflow. Worked immediately without changing ECU and no running problems. Will caveat that this setup was only used up to around 400bhp, am now running a MAP sensor instead on the AEM.
