DC retirment
Sad to see DC go out with such an unfortuante (and familiar) ending. Top bloke, great racing driver and Im sure it wont be the last we'll see of him.

500bhp
But supercars are unreliable ;)

Some good points if money was no object...I'd have myself a Veyron lol but to play devils advocate - You'd be foolish not to get agreed value insurance and it would'nt cost anything like as much as a Gollardo....and if you factor in the cost of depreciation on those newer cars....

Welcome. The person you need to speak to is Znut on here, he is the Trade liason officer. Unfortunatly you would need to be subcribed to PM him, so I guess you just need to wait for him to see this thread.

I would'nt say its a common upgrade, I've done it and a couple of others but thats about it in the UK. Its a little more popular in the states, although most of them are becuase of people converting their NA's to TT, rather than swapping rear ends. On a Manual equipped car the acceleration difference is very noticable. 1st gear is over very quickly and you'll need a lot of traction to make use of it. I've seen test results in the U.S showing a measured 0.5 secs drop in 0-60 and a similar drop in the 1/4 mile. Top speed it restricted to around 165mph, but it will get there quicker. Downsides are a drop in MPG and engine revving higher on motorway ofcourse. Its a big job, but its a good time to polybush the subframe, diff and arms.

car on fire?
You have an oil leak somewhere leaking onto the exhausts

If he finishes....I predict 3rd Place. If Massa finishes 1st Lewis still only needs to finish in top 5 to become world champ :hyper:

F1 Brazil today
We know he's hot headed, and he's got Alonso right behind him who is bound to make a late braking move at the start......I can see it all going wrong for him If he can get through the first lap, and pull a lead on alonso I think he might be ok. Depends if he then gets held up by Trulli...or even Raikonnen deliberaly!, allowing the pack to hound him. Tense ! :) LOL

Boot differences throughout the Z
It bolts directly onto the tailgate, but its best to use sealant as well to stop fumes and moisture getting behind it.

power steering playing up
yeh, there is a Nismo 300kph aftermarket speedo available. Its pretty rare though and its just a stock speedo, with 300kph faces and a different resistor.
-
hicas
yeh, the main reason for doing it is the different ratios....the ditching hicas is more of a side affect.
-
power steering playing up
I mean what does the speedo face go up to....not the car. If its in MPH, does the speedo show numbers only up to 110mph, or does it go right up to 180mph, as you cant just change the face without fitting a speedo convertor or it wont be correct.
-

What does the Face read up to ? if its more than 120mph (eg. 160 - 180mph) then its got some sort of converter or resistor modification.

Any excessive noise from the pump when turning ? Tbh..PAS faults are more often than not an electrical fault. The system is speed sensitive and if it loses speed signal it reverts to a heavy PAS state.

Boot differences throughout the Z
There is no strip there as standard. The spoiler is one piece and covers the entire area. THats literally what the boot looks like when you remove the spoiler. All thats there is some edging strips which pull off. Here is mine after I pulled of my spoiler (which had a fibreglass stock replica and had been resprayed previously beneath the spoiler): and my first zed : and this is the complete rear spoiler...err on a Scenic :
