  1. Just thinking, i think i mount it the other side of the ARB leg, and that moved the 90degree lug in a way to sit properly. I tried the extra bolt, but it wouldnt fit in the middle hole, because of the size of everything else, so the only way was in the softest setting hole, which i wasnt a fan of, as it sits alot higher than the others.
  2. I dont have the Drop links, but when my rear is on the hardest setting, i think i normally just put the bracket into the middle hole,so to speak. lol Havnt had a track day this year, so cant really remember the exact details, but found a way
  3. Sorry, cant throw you any work im afraid, I work at Red Bull, so wondered if you supplied us machines at all.
  4. What company do you work for chap? Deckel by any chance?
  5. Or fast roads in Buckinghamshire.....
  6. JDM Daryl: Alex. Ah,sorry, just noticed the thumbnail pics. Il go back in my box now.
  7. Hi Jerrick Thankyou for taking the time to respond to my question, and with lots of detail and explanation. I hope that this also helps prospective buyers when it comes to choosing a suspension set up, and I hope they come to you. I think that as we have very specific types of roads here in the UK, that having a company that understands that is very important.
  8. You were lucky Daryl, hows the leg coming on ?. Its all good thanks, the vertical bone is still swollen abit, but hopefully will go down over time. Got a massive scar, but thats about it. (Apart from my dented pride)
  9. Sounds like a good explanation. However, not to pick holes, but, could you explain the advanced engineering and bespoke precision machining please? Surely all dampers etc need precision machining so all the holes line up etc, and is bespoke to the car, as the mounting point dont change. Not trying to cause a ruck or anything (this thread has seen enough), but just trying to understand what is actually involved in the GT1 design and manufacture over and above the Zeta spec stuff. Would just like some more in depth knowledge as to what is involved in the design, manufacture and testing of the 2/3 sets that you do. Any info you can supply would also help any potential buyers when choosing a spec, or even choosing your kit over something like the BC.
  10. Thanks, drop me a PM if I can have the lance on its own.
  11. Sorry to hear of your pain, but you have plenty of options. Can i ask why you are taking the caliper off to replace the pads?
  12. Full story on my stupid accident. http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/69404-accident/
  13. Damage to my car, while waiting for ambulance.
  14. I did similar damage to my car earlier in the year, though was just the door and the wing mirror. (And the huge hole in my leg) by the time I added up the cost of a door (going rate around £300, and a wing mirror, around £150) it wasnt worth my while. Not to mention that I couldnt get a door in Azure. Though you will find it easier in GM or BS. I know your insurance is high at the moment, but by the time you offset the cost of the new parts, (and your own time fitting it all, if you were going to do it) you are better off paying your excess. (Guessing around £500?) Also, the bodyshop did me a good rate on respraying other parts of the car at the same time.
  15. Any chance of splitting the snow foam and the lance? Got loads of foam, but my lance is starting to play up a little due to excessive use.
  16. I got 5 litres of FinishKare 452, and found that is very good also. Really brings out the shine. Also, doing this after a wax, has the added benefit of removing any wax residue that you may have missed.
  17. I have a pair of Goldring NS1000's have have found them excellent. Most of the guys on the race team that travel alot have the Bose, but at £300, i couldnt justify it. After some research on What Hifi, these Goldring's were 99% as good, and I got them for £60 from Superfi. Must admit, not tried the Bose, but Im very happy with what I have, and for £60, they were a bargain.
  18. The MSV Drift days are brilliant, though they are only at Oulton Park, which is abit of a trek. However, it takes pretty much zero tread off your tyres, and is a great laugh
  19. Big Merc dealership and HO here in MK, and seen a couple of these, tried to follow one the other week. They just go, and keep on going, abit like a Skyline/RS6 in that respect. See it launch from a standstill, and its very impressive, id imagine it would humiliate quite a few fast cars from a standing start. Very good looking cars in the flesh too, very AMG.
  20. I have the Eibach ARB's which are adjustable, 2 point on the fronr, 3 on the back. These come with ARB bushes anyway, but I think Alex is talking about the Banana arm bushes. I have these, and have to say there was an improvement over stock. I changed the ARB's myself on the drive, which was fun. lol The front one was easy, rear one less so, but it is a DIY job if your up for it. Id say remove the back box of the exhaust though, as its pretty impossible without doing it. Believe me, i spent an hour trying. The adjustment can be done with the car stationary if you dont mine laying on the ground, and once you have done it a couple of times, is 5 minutes per corner.
  21. Epic LOFT (Lack of F-ing Talent)
  22. Still for sale. If someone wants it, and can collect it, im happy to give it away, as i think its too good to take down the skip.
  23. Sorry, the kit got posted out yesterday. Thread can now be locked.
  24. Id agree with the uprated ARB's. Cant believe how much they improved the car through the corners, and as long as they are not on their hardest setting, the ride feels totally standard. If on the hardest setting, they jiggle the car abit, which is a little anoying on the motorway, and long trips, but on a track is awesome. Thought id have to go to coilovers to get good cornering, but very happy with it now. Coilovers maybe on the cards at some point soon, at which point, Alex will be my first port of call.
  25. Saw you come into the car park, and then have to park over the road. Looked like you were on a date with a hot lady in a black dress, hope it was a good night. I was outside on a bench with a few people, and a few pints.
