ouch!

^^^ Bugger forgotten how to host pic directly from google - Never know my luck though... maybe a nice mod might pop in and fix it for me Jak

yeah thats what i thought! especially compared to your 3rd Pic alessandro!! Isn't it wierd?! http://www.basinpipes.com/blog/business/i-love-gold/

Thanks for the Photo's guys, Ahh and this is another thing - Mine dosnt really look much higher than that - but I have also previously thought that mine dosnt look quite as high as other non-lowered Zeds (and no - I cant see green springs if i look underneith!!! )

why thank you...... me too!

Right, so ive done the spacers (Eibach 20mm F&R) so now in order to meet 1st rule of Z Club - Space & Lower set out by Sarnie i must go about lowering..... Onto the question: I am going to go for springs rather than coilovers as a) I can't afford coilovers I havn't and will probably very rarely if ever track the car so wouldn't, i don't feel, get the full benifit of the coilovers. So after searching around a bit it seems that the most common choices are the Eibach 30mm or the Tein 17mm front 14mm rear springs and hear in lies my problem/question ..... I do want the car to look lower and not sure how much of a visual difference the Teins will make BUT i also don't want to be scraping my splitter every 5 min's either which i fear may happen with the Eibachs..... So is there another choice which offers a middle-ground between the two? OR failing that can people post up photo's of there cars preferably on 18's with either the Teins or Eibachs on and tell me how much trouble, if any, they have with bumps if running the Eibachs? Just to give people an idea of my set up i am running 18" Rays with 20mm Eibach Spacers Front and Rear and have a Nismo front splitter. Thanks in advance Jak

Ha Ha, nice try but i'll get new wheels when i need new tyres

It's up to you at the end of the day mate, just thought i'd make the case for the avons as i have found them to be fine - that said the Falkens would seem to be a safe bet as they are often rated well on here.....

Agreed - Though surely the Avons arn't quite ditch finders though?? They really don't seem that bad to me.....

As i said before (though no-one seems to have seen it lol) I have the Avon ZZ3's all round and am experiencing no problems - i dont think the Avons are to blame but more, as others have said, the combo of the two different sets...... So unless someone has something particually (Sp??!!) bad to say about the Avons i would probably just match the fronts to the rears. But as i say i am no expert, nor am i claiming the Avons are a super tyre - just that i am happy with mine and havn't experienced the issues you have raised whilst using them. Jak

If the Avons are only 700miles old then why not just get avons on the front to match them up - I have Avon Z33's all round and am not experiencing any problems - seem a pretty good tyre to be honest...... i'm no expert, just havnt had any slippage wet or dry and i use my car every day Jak

Another plain one.... Jak

Japefest 2, the evolution. Following on from the massive success of Japfest this year the 350z-uk,z club, 300zx club will be having a joint stand at this. I have Hijacked Jaks first post but I am sure he wont mind. http://www.japfest2.co.uk/index2.shtml Ticket deals will be posted up soon so in the meantime lets get some names up for this. When you see the pics from todays Modified Live you will get a sense of how we are moving forward on these shows. 1.Jak - Potentially (It's my Brothers B'day but he still seems keen to come along so should be fine...) 2. Madmarky 3. Nurrish 4. Wasso 5. Ians16 (Will confirm) 6.yokomo 7.Tarmac 8. Mitch 9. martinmac 10.Chesterfield 11.

Nah I meant tedious..... especially when you have people that think they "know cars" but really gain all their knowledge from a certain Mr. Clarkson (who we all know really loves the 350....) asking things like "hasn't that datsun got a renault engine in it?" Gets boring after a while..... Though tenuous would work too! Jak

Ordered mine over the weekend, went last year too - was ok for a freebie! Would be funny to get a club stand here............ there is that tedious link to Renault with the engine after all.....

looks shweeeeeet Jak

Thanks Martin, Will get some pics up when i manage to upload them - i think i took over 900! Needless to say it wont be quite that pic heavy! Jak

have to admit it's not for me either - but didn't want to offend if you had just had it done or something!

looks clean Is the front grill colour coded?

I so wish I knew whether I could afford this or not!! I take it a gm 53 plate bonnet in v. good wouldn't be of interest? Jak

liking the door handles! Jak

lol, you do know pistonheads started as a TVR forum don't you?
