  1. anyone there tonight? What a show!!!
  2. One of my favourite filmsets. I think that's what made me want a 350z to be honest. Vin diesel is a monster of a guy, obviously he's had nothing to do between each film and spent all is time in the gym. Yep fast and furious Tokyo drift was set after 4 and also 5. Obviously the killed of a character and thought, sh!t we really need him for these movies so they've had to take a step back and re-think it. But to be fair it does make it a little more exciting waiting to see what they come up with next. The end of 4 made me really want to see what happens next. The 2 old guys fishing in Tokyo drift, one of them is actually a drift legend Keiichi Tsuchiya. It is shown in the blu-ray, him doing alot of stunts himself for it.
  3. Happy birthday guys!! Happy birthday Jay! Will catch a birthday drink with you at somepoint! All the best!

    Fast Five

    I seen this advertised a few months back. Cannot wait to see it, the last fast and furious ended with hopefully an exciting start of the new one. Blueray boxset ftw, I got from play for a bargain!
  5. Paisleyfreight are good. Used them many times for tyres
  6. Welcome mate! enjoy the V6 acoustics. Get involved in the meets also, awesome fun and you'll get to meet some very nice people.
  7. I would like to let you know I'm definitely out. I have decided with current prices to go with the thermal spacer from motordyne. Cheers anyways
  8. sorted now cheers No probs matey Car is stunning mate, very hard to keep a black car shiney!
  9. See if you take the image code from photobucket and paste it it will show the pics on here
  10. Yep the camber you'll achieve that low will work to your advantage. My cars more function over form but I love it to look good as I also enjoy attending shows etc. Looking forward to seeing the final product mate
  11. Lol your car is a Beauty mate very nice and I love the hella flush look. I was originally thinking about doing it for shows but it would be a pain swapping my ride height and fitting spacers to push the car out then swapping back for 18's for track work and readjusting the suspension. It's a 35profile tyre on nismo lmgt4's(245 front and 275 rear on 8.5 and 9.5 rims) So for me to get that look I would need stretch the tyres alot and put massive spacers on to push the wheels out. At current ride height a 10mm spacer would cause the wheels to rub the arch badly as they aren't rolled.
  12. Yeah sure, the first time I dropped it i had the rails dangerously close to the deck Why would everyone think your ghey? Nothing looks more impressive than hellaflush done right but yeah i agree done wrong looks a right state. Pics of 60mm drop please? I'm dropped about 35-40 just now on coilovers and my geometry is well out . Will be getting set up once new camber arms are on. I'm also a ballhair of the ground and minor dips in the road and I hit. What suspension/coilovers are you running to achieve the drop? Just had a look at your pics in your intro thread. your front skirt sits low but In comparison to mine, I'm dropped slightly less than 40mm and my front tyres are buried in my front arches on 19's. What the distant between your wheels centre and the top centre of the arch?
  13. Welcome! There will be little things that rattle etc that will annoy you but everything else outweighs all these issues. I bought mines a year and half ago and still smile everytime I start the engine. Love the reactions from people who don't know what it is. Enjoy mate!
  14. I we dropped 30mm and my camber was well out. My tyres wore badly on the inside.
  15. As far as I'm aware the only salvageable part is the screen. Alot of Jdm owners have experienced this
  16. It's not as quick as my zed as we've had a few runs testin them out but still pretty close. In the wet it has superb grip due to the 4wd so it is more of a match. I reckon the half second could be easily made up due to driver error. Totally different car to the to the 2 seaters but still very nice and very well built.

    lowering 350z

    I had the eibachs with my nismo kit which are about 30mm drop. Not good for multiple story car parks or big speed bumps. Fine everywhere else and could get over normal sized bumps fine.
  18. My apprentice has a Mark 5 58plate r32 with a miltek exhaust and it is an awesome sounding car. He absolutely loves it. I suppose any 20yr old would. The engine note is beautiful and close range gearbox make it rev very fast. Not as fast as it should he with that size of engine in such a small car but I suppose that's down to the weight of car.
  19. Lol I knew it would push a button
  20. Can you tell me if there's a kit available to clean the nismo filter r-tune filter and re-oil it? Cheers

    Rattling Scorpion

    To be honest that sounds more like a fitting issue as the scorpion has no baffles/resonators in the centre section. Get yourself under the car and have a look. Either that take it back to whoever fitted it. If it's not made correctly it could be vibration of the support towards the rear of the car. When I try and shake my scorpion there is very very little movement on it.
  22. She will qualify with BEd hons in primary teaching. Money in Dubai is wild for my job and hers but just not the best lifestyle. Need to find somewhere that will have a decent lifestyle and give us decent dough.
  23. Looking at London near my bro and a mate from school or abroad. Originally looked at Dubai but the lifestyles not what I want. So been looking at moving to the states as a second option, originally looked at the city lifestyle but fancy Boston. I have land in prince Edward island Canada so may develop that with the bro for a summer home. If I move abroad I can still work for my company as we have massive contracts in the states but would love to have my own company. I want settled for when I'm 30ish. So plenty of time to sort it out. There's no jobs in Scotland for Nicole so that's how we have no option but to move.
  24. Haha I'm hanging in there as long as I can(don't even pay digs) I knew vik would bite. In all honesty I do mostly everything for Nicole as works long days at uni then work so I do my best to do as much as I can for her. The reason I haven't moved into my own place and rent it out is because when she qualifies we're off out of Scotland for good. I try hard to please Nicole as I'm clearly punching well above my weight and she's awesome so I do everything I can to keep her happy. No need to bite vik I was only josking
