yeah - the only way to increase these is to raise the rev limiter or alter the gearing. but assuming gearing stays the same, then 6100rpm will remain the same speed even if you have fekking great tubs, or just completely stock :smw:

so which £100,000 supercar are you gonna have then? :D

if you have massive amps, subs etc, then the underdrive effect may have some effect on alternator output for supplying them TBH i cant see that really as most modern alternators are at max output by about 2000rpm or so anyway

start the bidding at 4k, esp if its a nice example.

if they never found the ramp - just deny it ever happened!!! how can they do you with no evidence?!?! tossers!

yeah, acts of god!! 1st prove god exists, then prove it was him that carried out the act!! :D

mongoose exhausts are 1 piece from the cat back im afraid, you would have to cut the pipe & modify

22 cars also!! bet were both after the same last 2!!! :nono:

Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeease post the vid on the GTO forum!!!! :D nice one pete - sounds like you had fun!!

ok - GTR tubs, i may be wrong, but i didnt think these were much of an improvement over stock zed ones, are they sequential also?? - this would be a problem also! Get some tried & tested aftermarked Z32 ones IMO!! knife edge/balanced bottom end is always a plus if you've got the dosh! lightweight flywheel/pulley - yup, deffo a bonus esp if you want better low down power air con binned - too extreme for me!! i bought a zed BECAUSE of the luxuries you get!! ;) elec fan - im sure theres good evidence to suggest this is not a good idea for zeds due to insufficient cooling. cams - done that bit! ;) :p bigger IC's are deffo a benifit, yes, there is a slight increase in lag due to more air to compress, but the benefits of cooler air outway that many times over! & IMO = In My Opinion!! good luck :D

hmm, not checked on a zed wiring diagram, but i would have thought a permenant earth with a switched live is more likely?? sure youve not just got a poor / broken earth?

ah, sorry didnt read that bit :o not sure if they do a SWB version tbh

hows the smoking now mark?? BTW, you can safely use most of the rev range even when running in. it more the load on the engine that causes problems. full load at low revs is faaaaaaaar worse than no load at high revs!!

cant beat a mongoose for value for money! excellent construction & retains the quad (although bigger!) tail pipes. not loud enough for some, but i find it perfect! a little more of a burble than stock, but no drone on motorway runs!! i got mine from Smithy, not sure if he still does these tho?

i would avoid higher compression pistons on a turbo engine like the plauge!! yes it may give a little low down power increase, but it will limit mid & high end far tooo much for it to be a benifit IMO as you will be limited by the amount of boost you can run! for the power you want a healthy stock bottom end will be fine. cams, will normally sacrafice lower end response & are mainly a benifit with bigger turbos, when you want high lift/long duration to get max air in! I would build around the likes of the JWT 530BB turbo's, for stock like spool up with a nice increase in power across the range. im sure if you ask 20 people on here you would get 20 answers, as there is no "right" answer!! :)

me too :)

SE(Nistek or whatever they call themselves now) are probably the best to speak to about this. they do a Fast Road rebuilt that most people seem happy with that have it done. speak to Macca - im sure he'll tell you its looooooooooads better that a manual conversion!! :D

closing the GB on Sunday. any more for any more?? :)

dead here too?!?

LOL!! is this a set up??

yeah, but it works by having a heavy weight on after the rubber joint - i think thats what there referring to, removal of the weight AFTER the rubber joint. aaaaaanyway weve got 5 now for the GB, so were good to go!! :hyper: anyone else that wants in on the GB better put your names down NOW!! :cool:

i also have a fizanza & really have not noticed any difference at all in smothness or driveability!!

LOL!! do you have a fuel temp tensor in your dash then?? ;) :D

SmartNav!! we install it on Mercs at work - very good system also has tracking facilities & speed camera (fixed) detection available (additional subscription) its a live system that will route around traffic jams etc. available with or without screen (doesnt need it & i prefer it without TBH) i think it retails at around £600 + subs, if you want to know more then PM me as i could get it installed cheaper than that for you :)

yeah - what everyone else said!! im sure someone on here looked at the code & all they done was to increase the rev limiter!!!!
