No new car for me for a while! Next will probably be a kit car tbh. Yeah I know about the laws prohibiting anything between wheel hub and rim- these won't be for road use, I just picked them up to get some better staged photos ?

Oh... And I don't do red. Sorry to any red/Nismo fans, but it's about to go.

Some goodies arrived this week! (POV that feeling when a shipment arrives early when you aren't there to receive it and your wife has to sign. Then she messages you asking if you ordered a whole load of boxes that look like car parts. Then she starts with the tough questions like "what are they...

Any contacts in Brisbane? ?

That would definitely be the most solid option. I just don't like that its as visible as it is... defect magnet...

I have a Varex valve in my system, but quite a few places cautioned me against an Xforce/Varex muffler. Apparently, as an integrated unit, they not only sound not quite as refined as you might want, but they're also a PITA to repair if the valve stops working. I tried out about 4 mufflers until...

Rep design or not (and honestly, most are...) I hadn't seen that hyper-bronze and gloss black combination before. Thought they looked really nice in the flesh. Take it or leave it, I just thought I'd share in case anyone was wondering what they might look like on the new Z body :)

I listen to anything (like literally anything, on any given day, including classical/instrumental and OG ganster rap)... except country. Not an audiophile by any stretch of the imagination, but I really like listening to music. If I'm testing a new stereo, I'll usually play Metallica's Nothing...

AWD and probably a VR38 swap. Starting here: https://www.amsperformance.com/product/ams-performance-4-3l-vr38-stage-6-billet-pro-mod-short-block/

Got my Top Speed orange model today - quick shot with my proto:

Respectfully... Recommend a second opinion. Stock system is a 6/10 at best. You don't have to spend a huge amount of money to make it better though. Focals are an option, as are a number of other cones, but these all need more amplification - a testament to how average the stock infotainment...

Met a fellow Z enthusiast and distributor of Cosmis Wheels here in Australia. He wanted to test some new designs on the Z to check calliper clearances etc. These are just test rims - rubber was all wrong, and they are just clear coated (ie, colour is far from final). Still... thought I'd share...

Yeah, it's very balanced now. II think the guys at MCA did a great job with the coilovers, and it was pretty much bang on, but I ruined it a little with the bushes and bigger sway bars. I was able to adjust the dampening a lot and find a good balance for the power delivery. I'll probably need...

Stock sub is absolute garbage. 'Bose' systems really aren't all created equal... the sub they've used here is pathetic. Standard it's like a 4" driver, and weighs around 1kg. The kenwood unit (which I've used) is 10" driver and about 9.5kg. The difference in sound, regardless of your musical...

I've been dialling in the suspension a little with some light track duties and skid pan. Got back from another session yesterday and thought you all might like to see what it looks like in motion :)

Why does it say peak boost is 21psi, but Map1 is 22psi? And is that Map1 and Map2 on the same dyno sheet? It would be strange if it is - only 2whp for +2psi boost...

It's probably just chip shortages. Every time they don't need to include one of these features it means they save a lot of time and money. It's a shame manufacturers (not just Nissan) don't just do a basic/bare model to keep them pumping out to consumers without the stigma of releasing an...

That is frustrating... It's like the same menu minus the ANC option... Why would they change it?? I wonder if the 9" infotainment will have it?

OK so tried it, and it definitely opens up a hidden menu: Can't find anything about the ANC / ASC though... :(

Will try that in about 15 mins
