  1. You dont have to remove the lower dash panel to replace these. Stick a flat blade screwdriver at the top, and push the tip down, the unit slides out, simples.
  2. Its difficult with the V1 vs V2 spoiler. The V1 follows the lines of the rear lights, where as the V2 goes in the opposite direction , but at a similar angle. Iv never been able to decide what one id put on mine, but neither look bad. I like the look of your car, think it looks pretty aggresive, which is cool.
  3. Had the TT comment a few times. And that was when i has Nissan badges on it.
  4. Im not saying the ones on the 370 are rubbish, far from it, just cant compare whats on an F1 or Hyper car to whats on a 370Z thats all. Im sure they would be worth the cost,especially on track.
  5. Hardly say thats a good endorsement, as the 370 brakes are nowehere near related to the ones on the P1. McLaren use Akebono on their F1 cars, which is why they are on the road cars. But its like saying the Brembo's on the Range Rover are related to the ones on our F1 car or the 350Z.
  6. I agree with the charity starts at home. One year i used best part of a £1000 of my bonus to get the bathroom sorted out in my sisters house, as she couldnt afford to do it, i also employed my step brother to go in there and do it all. So helped 2 people out in one go. There are so many charities out there, if you gave to everyone, then you would be claiming charity off them! I think that you pick a couple of charities that are close to you or your family and support them. Unless you have millions, and can support loads and it dont make much difference to your income. Im happy i do my bit, though not alot, i support my family when and where i can,mainly my sister,which to me is more important.
  7. Id just like to point out that the Oxfam HO is next to the law firm my mother in law works for in Oxford, and its an amazing building and cost an absolute fortune. Dont get me wrong, some charities are worth donating to or doing events for, but Oxfam is not one of them as far as im concerned. I donate to Air Ambulance and Cancer Research, to me the 2 of the most worth while causes going. Some people have got money, some havnt, its the way of life. Dont know if you have seen the Christiano Ronaldo thing doing the rounds on FB, but that amazed me, and how many cars and houses do you suppose he has?
  8. Bernie in jail, you have to kidding! Il do a Clarkson, and eat my own hair if he does!
  9. I thought about doing something similar, how far did you go with flatting back the original textured finish, or does a few coats of primer fill it all?
  10. Do they bolt straight onto the 350?
  11. Ignore the filthy wheels, but this is on stock suspension
  12. I wouldnt say the car needs lowering on 19's, it looks better than it looks on 18's. I went for Varrstoen ES2.2's, and i really like the look of them. I think the wheels cost me £1200 ish, but I did get them done in a custom colour.
  13. I agree, but when you can get the original pair regassed for £13 each, its a little hard to justify the extra £30. Sorry, didnt mean to hijack the tread.
  14. I think Adrian Newey would take one look at that in the car park and order it to be ripped off! lol Nice action guys, I quite like it, though wouldnt fit it to my car. Is it to possible to make up a couple of ally blocks to push the legs a couple of inches inboard? Like a sandwich plate, mount the legs to the block, then mount the wing to the other side of the block? Would that help with the mounting?
  15. Was just about to add my name to the list, then realised that its £30 for one strut, not the pair. Il get mine regassed I think.
  16. Well i do need to get the car up to get the jack under. I may have mislead when i said racing jack, i think its a low line jack, so does not have the obvious drop at the business end, its just smaller than most normal jacks
  17. Having recently done mine, id be happy to help if Buster is too far from you. Im in Milton Keynes
  18. Well the point was, that the stewards provided an offset to use with the senso, so it came close to what the proper limit should have been. We replaced the sensor Friday night, as it was faulty, then we got one that was even worse, which we swapped back to the original Friday one for the race, and told to apply an offset, but even that was not right. Hence why we thought to compy with the regs, we should use our own sensor, which we knew was correct.
  19. Iv got the Costco racing jack (£90 i believe), and I still have to use ramps to get the jack under the car, but only need to raise it an inch or so.
  20. LOL, dont worry Colin, seen all the funny comments and pictures etc. I know the engine from DR's car will be/has been put on a dyno infront of the FIA to prove that we were legal. Personally, it seems a little arrogant to me that we turned round to the race director and said, no, we are legal, we have our own sensor, bugger off and leave us alone. Hopefully the result will be reinstated, but im not counting on it. The dispute isnt as such that we were over the fuel flow rate, its more that we ignored the calls to adjust the fuel flow to comply with the standard. The sensors have been known to be iffy since the first test, but everyone is in the same boat
  21. There is something fundamentally right about the Nismo V1 kit, car looks amazing.
  22. Sorry, these have now been sold, thread can be locked.
  23. Eagle Speedster, nice touch
  24. Porsche Carrera GT has to be up there Brabus EV12 Estate TVR Tamora MK2 Escort Mexico,wide arches etc Tuned GTR Maserati Gransport Pagani Zonda Tricolore
