Anyone used these before? http://www.notjustwheels.co.uk/alloy_wheel_repairs.html here is a reply from them, sounds quite good?? I think?? Thank you for your request for an online quotation for: Alloy Wheel Refurbishment on your Nissan 350Z 18†RAYS Alloy Wheels. We appreciate your enquiry and hope to see you soon for your business. The service as requested is: 1. Full refurbishment on, 4 x 18â€, 6 spoke, alloy wheels. In fair condition with a little corrosion. 2. Interior/Inside of the wheels will be prepared, painted and finished to as standard just as presentable as the exterior of the wheel, this will prevent brake dust and other contaminants sticking to the inside of the wheel and making life easier for you when cleaning and/or waxing them. 3. 3 Year Anti-Corrosion Warranty as standard. 4. FREE Mini Valet worth £60 5. FREE Wheel Balancing The estimated cost for the above service will be no more than £190. There is no extra charge for having your wheels painted a different ‘single’ colour. Please Note: You asked about Powder Coating, we strongly recommend against this for the same reasons that they’re not powder coated from factory in the first place. Powder Coat chips very easily as it is much harder and more brittle than the bodyshop paint we use. More and more Wheel Repair companies are using powder coat as it is easier to have a thick coat of paint which melts flat and smooth without any effort going into preparing the surface before paint application and finishing the paint after application. If you don’t intend to leave your vehicle and you plan on dropping off and collecting your wheels yourself, this will reduce the cost by £20. When Can You Book In? The next available dates we have available for this service are 6th, 7th & 7th October and 11th October onwards as we are fully booked up until then. We hope this won’t cause any inconvenience, we promise to be better than anyone else in the Midlands in terms of quality, service, warranty and value for money! Once again, thank you for your enquiry and I hope to hear from you soon to make a booking. Kind Regards Richard Munt Director Not Just Wheels Limited www.NotJustWheels.co.uk Sales@NotJustWheels.co.uk 0115 714 21 55

Hi there, was going to have my rims Refurbed & Powder Coated, they are RAYS on Ginger ZED.... but not sure what colour to do them or exactly where to have them done. Searched on forum and found some examples, but does anyone have more pics of Ginger ZEDs with powder coated wheels. Mine have started to bubble a bit on the front so just decided to have all 4 done....... been told about these guys TOTAL WHEEL WORKS in Nottingham has anyone used them? http://www.total-wheelworks.co.uk/ http://www.totalwheelworks.com/80100/info.php?p=1 viewtopic.php?f=56&t=25169&hilit=powder+rays&start=15 Nice Powder Coated Wheels (grey with polished rim) viewtopic.php?f=61&t=28570&hilit=powder+rays These ones look good on a Ginger ZED (what colour are they?) Not sure what I would be asking for if decided on this, is this black satin? viewtopic.php?f=61&t=35952&hilit=powder+rays Anyone got some more pics of different colours on a Ginger ZED quite like the Satin black option.... viewtopic.php?f=61&t=23300&hilit=powder+rays Seen people can do clever things like this with photoshop, etc but is there a website for it? Thoughts, pics, ideas welcome....... just want them looking tidy as gonna keep the car a little longer now plus for an 04 with 18,000 on the clock not much point in getting rid eh! Cheers everyone

Was looking at powder coating rims and stumbled apon this......... Just wanted to say I LOVE it............. TOP WORK SIR!!

Hi thanks all bought a Pipercross off somesome on the site, fitted and loving it... picks up better bottom end now and roars like a 4 year old if you steal their sweets! also managed to get a polished pipe so chuffed to bits. thanks again everyone for their help, much appreciated Larsdowg

I've purchased this from Scott, (thanks Scott) thanks everyone for your input, will have to see how I get on with it....... I have a full stainless system so shoudl sound great from both ends now. Thanks Larsdowg

Hi all, firstly I don't work for these guys or know anyone from the company, this is an honest customer opinion and I think if you have a job well done tell people about it and spread the word. These chaps www.dentspeed.co.uk removed 2 dents out my ZED, one carpark trolley dent in the door and one crease down the back drivers wing. You can't see either of them and he charged me £100 cash, chap called Tony. I can't believe you can't see either of them, sadly I have no before pics and the after pics are pretty pointless as they are gone DOH!! Hope its of help to someone, cheers Larsdowg

Thanks but I think I am too expensive for him bear with me........ if anyone is selling one they don't want........ if not I'll get back to you

JWT Pop Charger + Heat Shield + Polished Pipe Anyone seeling a 2nd hand JWT Pop Charger with Heat Shield and if possible a polished pipe I have found them on here: http://www.jdmperformance.co.uk/item_de ... odID=59854 But wondering if anyone has one in their garage waiting to be ebayed thanks all Larsdowg

LOL husky......... we should just post every time : SEARCH BUTTON IS YOUR FRIEND so true i was thinking of making a wavy flag or banner with it on HAHA do it Mate its defo a personal choice, induction kits look different and sound different......... people like them, some people dont.... see what I am getting at? Best thing you could do is take the time and do your research......... even look on youtube for sound clips. I have a pop charger and love it....... as do many Thanks Jay, I have taken your advice and listened to some on you tube (would'nt have though people would upload that sort of thing on there) but listened to the Pop Charger and think thats the one for me Cheers Larsdowg

Thanks Chilli Red can you do anything on that price quoted? Larsdowg

Apparently its a crime to start a new thread of even ask a question thats ever been asked before or for someones help... So I'll just write something sarcastic like a Veteran who knows a lot more than newbies on the site, even though you are only asking for the opinion of the experts and what they have been running with. God have you never heard of an advanced search in a forum before, its a bit like digging deeper in your sock draw, don't ask your wife if they have been washed just keep looking!

cheers, Pop chargers seem to be a decent enough price too on ebay thanks

cheers Husky there are hundreds of pages can anyone narrow it down? Someone who has maybe been involved in a recent purchase of one? thanks again Larsdowg

Got it thanks chaps: viewtopic.php?f=37&t=1781

Hia all, I have been told by a friend the induction kit to buy is a pop charger for my 2004 350Z GT............ Whats everyone elses thoughts on the subject, do you have any links or does the site have any discounts for buying from a supplier known on the site? Any help much appreciated, I've had K&N on my MIVEC FTO before and it sounded awesome Cheers Rick

Hia all, A friend of mine is looking at getting a Fairlady as he cant afford a 350Z of a similar year to mine, so obviously the first difference is price, secondly visually I notice the spoiler is missing on the Fairlady and thirdly the Square number plate housing...... Apart from that what have the Romans ever done for us? Has anyone got a definitive list of all major differences please? Cheers all, Larsdowg

Went one year with work and ended up in just a normal bar in the town centre where beer was 12 euro a glass!! Needless to say we didnt drink in the town centre again, saw a nice Carbon Fibre Zonda though

Why Nottingham ??? I live in Derby and go to Notts quite often but didnt think it was renowned for Stag doos.. Hooters is ok but its not a patch on Leeds or Newcastle.. You have to go abroad as its the best excuse for a lads holiday, it won't happen when your married Notts was for a central location really, but it was pretty good we went quad biking, go-karting, paint balling and then to a comedy club in the centre........one odd thing I do remember is they had a dildo machine in the middle of the place where you could buy them from.....think they saw a lot of stag and hen parties in there!!! That aside!! It was a pretty sweet weekend of drinking and eating curry. When I was snowboarding a few years ago in Andora a stag party came into a bar and a guy had 5 dildos taped to each of his fingers on both hands of various sizes and he had to drink ALL his drinks through a straw as he couldnt pick anything up.............REALLY REALLY FUNNY!!

Good but bloody expensive and a bit boring... too much styling and profiling! Milan, same and too big so you get split up... Tallin, great fun, Iceland... Full of mentalists!! Never get into a drinking comp in iceland... you will never win! I swear the Icelandics are immune to alcohol! Hmmmmm never thought of iceland, that might be a good laugh.........

Yeah agree, I went on one last year, loads of my mates have done the UK and we had a great time on all of them but the Stag pack decided mine should be abroad! We did in last 2 years: Newcastle Nottingham Dublin (v expensive drinks) Newquay Leeds
