I don't really understand how force is transferred through the pedal. The impact load is applied through the shell, the brake pedal receives the same load as the rest of the car. In theory at least. I'd be interested to learn how that works, I suspect it's possibly the opposite. The force of you suddenly stopping is the cause, ie foot on brake you slide forward before the belt catches combined with the firewall moving toward you. Very fast jarring action causes fractures doesn't it. All accidents are best when your loose, that's how drunk or unconscious people often come out unscathed when a sober person gets servely hurt. In practice it is virtually impossible to choose to do anything, it's the subconscious that allows us to make these reactions. Think how long it takes to teach yourself not to brake when a car goes sideways, it's only once this becomes rote that it becomes reflex and subconscious. Ie useful.

Doesn't sound like a golf, doesn't go like a golf still looks like a golf though...lol at the comments on the vid, "imagine it was in a lighter car like a mk1" I lol at this for two reasons. Firstly the lack of imagination and golf bummage, yes mk1s are light but imagine putting it in something that looked nice and only weighed what a mk 1 does..there's an idea. Secondly the thing only weighs 1100kg that's a paper weight! It already struggles to get traction even with its 4wd layout, I bet it's useless on track and with such a low weight compared to its bhp figures traction will always be an issue as it will quickly hit the maximum amount of grip. Bloody golfs.

Yes yes and yes.

Sorted :)

A positive move, congrats Si.

Yeah il sort it when I get in from work

Sounds good to me, be prepared though manual conversions are pretty time consuming. It's not that it's difficult or complex Theres just a fair bit of hoofing about to do.

Tbh NSX's are overpriced in general, they cost sooo much more than their counterparts. I know I know it's this that the other, but it's still a damn honda. So one owned by such a high profile person, someone involved in Motorsport and in the development of the car itself I'm surprised it's not twice that money.

Yup lol the titanic was made out of steel and look what happened to that pos lol.

Wonderful your added :D

I wonder if you could fit something in the Aiv location, from another car. Also get yourself signed up as a south central member here, http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?102068-Who-is-in-South-Central/page8

Duh yeah missed that bit. Sorry.

What coolers did you get in the end?

Take the bezel off first and inspect the joints. I removed my speedo cluster and simply tightened the screws that was sufficient to fix it. You wouldn't buy a speedo converter from a dealer.

You've obviously not been to a leisure club recently then hahaha. I see all kinds of things. A badger wouldn't surprise me I found a weasel once and an adder another time.

Yeah it was always well looked after and reliable good buy for that amount if say.

I think you will find the original owner or the one who did the work was murt, that car went to nurburg and back without breaking a sweat was a good car.

By any chance is it a dark bluey green Lwb with a 99 spec front?

This is a fair point, as some stuff that's made of fibreglass is pretty durable, hot tubs for example.

Speed converter is probably shagged. May also be dry solder joints.

Mine only feels light when I'm going too fast to be on the road tbh not ie very very rarely. Even then it's the back end that feels a little floaty and loose. I blame the hicas for this mostly.

How could you even adjust that angle on a z32 the angle is preset and fixed is it not?

You should be avon etc REO Si
