drove a 350z in the wet the other night

love that esp, had the balls to sink it in the corners!

the 350z driver in the video apparently didnt have enough balls :rolleyes:

from the individual best lap time, he should be at least second overall.

That Nismo FairladyZ was getting held up by the Cayman S as well, but I doubt he would have out-accelerated the BMW Z4M Coupe regardless. I've gone for a squirt in the straights up against a mate in his E46 M3 convertible, and I got smashed.

I'd love to get the chance to drive one of those Z4M's in anger, and see how the chassis feels in comparison. Even if the handling is only as good as the Z33's, that engine alone would make me want to trade up. I don't know if the 380RS-C engine (which has 300kW) is street legal, and thus a proper comparison with the Z4M.

I am rather surprised that the "tuned" S2000 was that slow, though.

Z4 coupe with a M3 engine should make a rather entertaining package. I have driven a manual E46 M3 a while ago and absolutely loved it. The metallic buzz of the 3.2l straight six is one of the best modern engine notes.

      I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps

      Can you mount the ATTESA pump in other locations?

      According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car.

      It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.

      If it (the code) wasn't still current, it should have gone away by itself by now. No, nothing it 10/10. But it is quite likely. Everything else to do with the ignition could still be responsible (which is wires and connectors). The car is an old piece of shit now, so all the wires and connectors are also old pieces of shit.
