Mine should be pretty loose - it's got 18,000 miles on it at the moment.

Having said all that, as you know, these cars in standard trim are still stunningly fast, I guess it's just the new T25 that makes me want to upgrade it.

why??
I went and test drove a 350Z, but for £16-17k I had to spend, I couldnt find the right car for me and most where rough imports, so I bought a mint Focus RS with not many miles on the clock and which has a few performance mods done to it, so it goes pretty well(when its dry, bloody FWD)

they are designed for torque, hence the headers and the fact that they are (03/04) 280ps and 290lbs of torque
