    V6: Is it really worth it

    My mk2 V6 felt 100x more special than my 182. It was the second V6 I owned and for a good reason; they get under your skin. If you're a petrol-head and like the idea, you'll love it.

    :eek: It just seems to be sort of car that lends itself to be nice and low - although if it ain't broke and all that... I'll pop over on the next dry weekend so you can have a go.

    lol. I'm just debating what springs to go for - eibachs seems to be lowest (-30mm) but that might mean some big ol' geometry problems.

    Drop it like its hot? It's next on my list of things to do! :rolleyes: :cool: I'll bring the springs with me yes? (btw is that ^^^ in your workshop?) :D I had my first proper drive in it on Sunday down the local rally-route (still tarmac!) and then along the B660 all the way to...

    Don't think I've come across any 225's yet actually ;) :rasp:

    My dCi100

    If the dci100 gearbox is the same 6-speed box as my Scenic (assuming its going to be) then it can easily cope with the torque increase. The scenic has 177lb/ft standard and can cope with pulling heavy trailers in an already heavy car. Been tempted to get a tuning box, but a Scenic isn't exactly...

    360 Component swap for VGA cable (Offical M$ only)

    I use the component cable with my projector because I heard the VGA does indeed look a little washed out and fake - can any projector owners confirm or deny? I'd quite like to go VGA because it upscales DVD's and allows true 1080p.

    Yeah it can, although I hear it has clever brakes that apply to the rear if you use them when entering a corner, and therefore stopping you from any heroics. Don't touch the brakes in a corner and you can drift all day.

    How dare you :rasp: (its the reflection of the house makes it look wonk!!)

    New jap toy

    I wouldn't say I've drifted yet, but the back is very communicative :cool: (more so than the any other car I've had)....I'm looking forward to hanging my ass out on occasion (but not looking forward to buying 275/35/19 tyres).

    New jap toy

    If that. They're 278(ish) bhp standard, the exhaust should give a couple more and it has a different airbox too. Performance wise a tuned 200sx would give it a pasting lol. Feels slightly faster than my V6 255 but not as quick as the M Roadster I had. I won't compare it to the Megabusa...
  22. miketheman2k

    New jap toy

    Apparently yeah, and the exhaust is another 1500 from what I've read (probably a bit of a rip-off for a catback) - can't hear it when coasting (which makes a nice change from the Quicksilver V6 exhaust) but has a nice roar when giving it some beans.

    This is the badass nismo version, so its got different splitter, spoiler, sills, rear diffuser thing, wheels, exhaust... I agree, the normal one looks too slopey at the back, but although its a bit chav, the spoilers, etc make it look more finished, oh and the 275 / 19's help a bit too ;)

    No, wouldn't touch a Jap import unless I had to (DC5, GT-R, etc.)

    V6 and driver

    Because it was clearly her car :quiet:
  27. miketheman2k

    V6 just gone in for 12k service...

    My local dealer (camden renault milton keynes) are even worse, they won't even let you sniff a courtesy car until you have proof of your own fully comp insurance for their car! Shittest dealership I've ever used.

    HD Projectors

    That's total rubbish - the difference between 720p and 480p is as clear as night & day even on a 32" LCD let alone the 110" screen I have in the living room. Maybe the 720p --> 1080p difference is much harder to see. The current 720p projector is the ax100, not the ae100....and well worth the...

    Mk2 V6 - Top End?

    Mine used to feel seriously light at the front end at over 120....hit a bump and it was anyones guess where it would go. lol

    HD Projectors

    You can not beat projectors for a proper cinema / gaming experience. 110" screen in a pitch black room with decent sound is where its at - makes most plasma/lcd TV's look so weedy. Will definitely be getting myself the new panasonic ae1000 1080p when its out. Hoping I can find it for £2k.
