First step to chavving the car up! next could be big bore exhaust or dangly dice!

Well I never, I very much doubt I will change any cosmetic features; love my Z4M as it is...

However I would consider improvements to breathing and fuel management, not sure if its as easy as with a bike. Got my GSX1400 sorted with a free flow exhaust, Power Commander (plugs into the wiring loom and overrides the standard fuel settings at all RPMs and throttle openings) and dyno set up for the lot. it went from 108rwhp to 126rwhp, massive... Fuel consumption improved too...

I guess i should read more here but maybe there is a way to set up the car fuel control accurately on a dyno? Still this car is ballistic, so maybe I am being silly and should enjoy it as is??

Where's the best place to get Stubbie and is there a preferred option?

Thanks

My other half calls my 35is a chavvy sounding car. He thinks it's louder than his R32 GTR with a Tomei exhaust and my cars currently standard!

mangowalk, off ebay

 

[MHZ4C]

I have one from Peugeot, but the fit isn't perfect. Reception is ok though.

Thanks Taz. Just done a search on fleabay but to no avail......?

Just seen DR-Z's list of cars on signature - good, good list but finished with a BL Toledo - wow. :lol:

My car list is not as impressive but did start with a MkI Ford Escort 1100 deluxe (1969 G reg 3 door) which is on par with a Toledo. Worth a mini poll to see if anybody can beat a Toledo or a 1100 Escort; an Allegro or Marina might win it?

Joking apart I wish I still had the Escort cause I can't afford em any more! had two MkII Escort Mexico's and an RS2000 - the good old days

Back to Stubby aerial - Taz, give me another Mangowalk pointer, I'm not too savvy on computer thing...

Cheers

What's the reception like with the 'Mangowalk' stubbies?

I remember years ago I had a stubby and MW radio was a no go

 

[jaRED]

I listen to MW quite regularly with mine, I can't remember having any problems
