Re: 2006 Noble M400 #141
Wow, badass for sure. Nice pickup! The car looks really fun.
PS. I saw in the SB you are looking at running the ds2500's. I have them on my car and they work great, nice street pad for sure.

Re: 2006 Noble M400 #141
Wow, this thing is SEX.
I'm planning on Marshalltown on July 12th, you should really try to make that event so I can see and ride in this beast.

Re: 2006 Noble M400 #141
Does it use a factory Ford ECU or a standalone?

Re: 2006 Noble M400 #141
No real plans yet, maybe an updated tune. I want to get really comfortable driving/racing the car before I do any major mods.
Yea, I can probably make that Marshalltown event on July 12th.
As for the ECU, I'm not sure. I think the newer Rossion Q1 uses a Ford ECU with OBDII, but my car doesn't have OBDII, so I'm not sure. This is something I'm looking into, since I want to be able to have it dyno tuned, and log data with my track cam/logger as well.
Ferodo DS2500 pads going on later today. A few days before I picked up the car the previous owner installed new rotors and Carbotech XP10 pads. The pads squeal way too much, I can handle a little, but these are ridiculous and embarrassing to drive around town. He gave me the old rotors (which can be turned) and nearly new sets of DS2500 and DS3000 pads with the car. Maybe I'll turn the old rotors and pair them with XP10 pads for track days.

Re: 2006 Noble M400 #141
Your car has ducting so it will be different, but, I ran DS2500s on the Evo and could cook them in 2-3 laps at BIR.
They were great for the street, though.
And the obligatory "needs TT LSx swap."

Keep the new rotors with the XP10's. Using the old rotors (even turned) with a track pad will warp the rotor fast due to the lack of metal that generates more heat. |

Re: 2006 Noble M400 #141
Hmm, you're probably right. I already switched to the DS2500 on the new rotors. Maybe I'll get another set of new rotors for the front for track days. But, the car is only 2300lbs with brake ducting, maybe the DS2500 will be ok.

They will overheat quick, and once they do they don't come back, I took a set of 2500 of Josh's 900Hp evo and they were overheated and glazed, it wasn't pretty! Definitely RUN the HT10's for track events and keep the 2500's for street duty only. |

That is really sweet! I love where they mount the air filters to take advantage of the fresh air flowing towards to the intercooler!

Re: 2006 Noble M400 #141
In this picture, I must know what the two red buttons on the steering wheel are for. It better be for NOS haha!

Re: 2006 Noble M400 #141
The fire extinguisher is an undercover NOS bottle, the left red button is missiles, and the right button is NOS.
But really, it's just an extinguisher and the horn buttons. The fire system is pretty cool, I pull a lever in the driver footwell (out of the way so you don't accidentally pull), and it sprays the cockpit and engine bay.
Got the car cleaned today, the blue shines so much more now:
