How much bigger are the calipers than the brembos?
At the moment i have Varrstoen 2.2.2 wheels where my brembos have about 2mm of clearance from the spokes of the wheels, i'm guessing your calipers will get in the way lol?

Someone has beat ya to it, looks good tbh, but need to see what it's like on the car.

Is it super charged and turbo charged? And why is the turbo at the back?
Yes its running both. Turbo is at the back because its a rear mounted kit
And in terms of space its probably the easiest way to do itNever seen a rear mounted kit before, what's the point in it just down to lack of space in the engine bay?
Its a single turbo, so probably best to not fit that to just one side of the engine

Hey, i've change my training routine and diet now.
I'm currently around 24% bodyfat and i wanna try and get this down to about 12% which i think is maintainable as i still love food lol
I've gone for low reps high weights but also sticking high intensity training in every other day.
So at the moment i'm doing 3 days of weights with 2 days of cardio and 1 extra day of cardio/weight training with 1 day of rest a week.
Increased my meal routine to 6 times a day with meat/fish included with every one, while carb consumption is only at breakfast and post workout training meal. But every meal has veg as well as a variety of seeds and nuts and other bits and pieces to help get through each meal lol
Oh and lots of eggs!

Transmission whine?

Im with cs200 here, my wrap cost in over £1500 in total, but it was well worth it as they did a fantastic job, actually wrapping round the edges, taking off all necessary parts, it's not the wrapping youre paying for but the care and labour that goes into it to get it right.
Spraying a car properly would require them to take off the paint back down to the metal and respraying layer by layer as well as masking off edges. So i would say a good spray job would be in excess of £4k.
And if you get it professionally removed i can't see there being any damage to the paintwork especially that the companies that make the wraps make special removers to help with taking off the wraps. And at the same time if peeling off some wrapping can damage paintwork, the paintwork can't be particularly good in the first place.

I can attest to the sturdiness of the Varrstoens. It's held up to a lot of kerbing, my area has very small lanes and it's hard to get away with not kerbing them.
Also out on a spirited drive and unfortunately hit a kerb hard and it dented the wheel a bit, didn't crack which i expected cast wheels to do. But no, just dented slightly on the lip, tyres stayed intact and no other damage,

I was just wondering about upgrading my brakes, of course we have the option of the DBA and Ferodo combo that seems to work very well for everyone. Theres also the Stoptech brake upgrades. And of course the Big Brake upgrade.
What i was wondering is do you get that much more performance out of the big brakes compared the the upgraded standard discs and pads for the extra weight that you'll be carrying?
Are the DBA and Ferodo combo just as good at braking compared to the big brakes?
Of course the big brakes look nice but kinda taking looks and price out of the equation and solely trying to base this on performance.
-
What are the perfomance of these compared to say the DBA and Ferodo combo or other big brake kits?
-
Loving it!

Man those look fantastic... now lets see what the bank manager says!

Super matte black wrap

Hmm... looks like i'll be looking into the project kics earlier than expected, got D1's on my car at the mo, so next time the wheels come off i'll most likely have new stronger wheel nuts ready to go.
I know the guys in the US love the project kics, but what else do you guys recommend?

Most definitely seeing this, just hoped to god that the fighting scenes are better done, need some serious robot ass kicking to be done!
-
I am definitely buying this one, i hope they upped their game on the single player side of things and really make use of the large maps they can do as i felt it lacked a lot of story and immersion as well as doing what BF is good at doing!
But yeah the graphics look fantastic, looks so fluid and dynamic, animations look even better now, just everything lol, 2 thumbs up from me!

Muchos likey

I remember seeing this, i think the thing with this is that it was an imported 2003 car?
And then supposedly everything was changed, including the engine to a 07+ HR everything...
Hmmm.... so very suspicous!

I dont have a name for her, but others have mentioned batmobile a couple of times

Enjoying this build progress. MORE!!
Definitely, fantastic read and will be watching this every step of the way

It's also an Import....

Saw this one where i live, to me i can't see why at first it was priced at £14000 and understand why they had to drop it to £11000 but it seems overpriced even with all the mods, which i don't think add value to a car really.
What do you guys think?

Don't worry i have an HR 350z and completely happy with it, i just find it funny how these 350z are getting overpriced for what they are.

Dont have any reversing aids what so ever but if you see how tiny our roads are and what space we have for parking and what not you'll know why they aint needed.
You quickly learn the size of your car otherwise you'll wreck your car!

You sure that's a Motordyne TDX V2?
I believe that's the V1, yours should look like this
I know... i have one too
Oh and by the way, fitting is easy... getting the pipes to line up is a right bastard!
And it sounds brutal at first but after a few hundred miles itll settle and sound oh so sweet, and by far, though i haven't heard many, the best exhaust for the 350.
You done yourself a goodun!
