Question for ya'll
120 nitrous...thats a lot....surely thats going to do more damage to the car then uprated boost. Kinda odd to tune a Twin Turbo if you stick Nos on it instead of more boost(the proper way).

Jan 2005 Meet
Mine broke down yesterday ! (waterpump - fitting new one tomorrow)....so thats me done..just the rest of you to break down now ;)

Question for ya'll
Only the Exhaust, Filter and NOS would give any power increase on that list. I think about 20-30bhp extra, plus the NOS. But with forged pistons and metal head hasket it must be running higher boost, and probably uprated turbo's.

Tailgating
I'd noticed the tailgating more myself......but...and ignore me if this sounds stupid.....but the rear window curves towards the bottom, and I think it gives the impression that the car behind is closer than it actually is. but from past experience, when driving a performance car you do get a lot more people trying it on.

Question for ya'll
Thats a well known bodykit fitted (its not an F40 kit) Im sure somebody on here can tell you the name. Personally, I'd remove that respoiler, and leave it with the already smoothed tailgate. Wheels are ok, If u dont like them Im sure somebody will snap them up quickly. Is that paint speckly, or is it just dustry or waterdrops ?

Question for ya'll
You really need to get a proper detailed full spec from him. If your going to buy a highly modified zed, you need to know the exact details of everything fitted. Price also seems very good, considering the Mods. P.s got any pics, sounds like a very sweet ride ! (also curious about the F40 bodykit?)

De-chipping and removing boost jets
The Chip does'nt off any significant performance increase on it own, but what it does do is provide the ECU Maps needed for the higher boost levels, and takes into account any other modification you may have done also. Its not abosultely required up to 12psi, its more ideal. Most/All other cars should have an ECU remap with boost increases, its just that often people dont do whats right.

Timmy, I think Homebrew was saying all Toyota's are sh*t becuase of the descriptive refernences to sh*t in their rhyming names..not nessarily that the cars really are sh*t. ;) Nissan not in F1 - IMO the F1 Manufacturer relationship means **** all in reality. Rally - Nissan dont make a 4WD Rally car. Its not that they competed and lost against the competition. They just dont make a car of that type. What Nissan do have is a very long Z and Racing heritage, and where they do compete, they compete very well...not to mention le mans and Dakar ! (oh..and the Nissan Micra is renowned for its reliablity......far ahead of any toyota) ;) But were all car fans, especially Jap car fans, and this is all meaningless !

Cheapest Z bought, on the road!
I paid just over £4000 a few months ago for my 92 TT Manual with 55k miles. but it needed some tidying, replacement front shocks and aircon compressor. I consider it a bargain, and would advertise it at closer to £6k now if I was to sell it (but I wont be selling it :D)...and I believe it would sell at that, as despite the stupid prices they sell for on here, they still sell at much (realistic) higher prices on Autotrader and at Dealers.

Not 'normal' newbie questions....
Many people disable the Hicas as they prefer the feel without it, or becuase the associated Hicas bushings are worn. There are differnet ways to disable it, but the simplest is a case of unplugging the connector under the bonnet and and bridging the connector. (a 5 second job).

Will anyone read the new Garage bits?
You can get to your old rides here : http://rides.300zx.co.uk/cgi-bin/rides.cgi And if it makes your feel better, I've had a good read of your ride spec ;) I think this new rides section is very beneficial. Now its so easy to go and look up the spec of other members cars, whereas before most of the rides only contained pictures.
