Hey, everyone. Recently got some Kei Racing 20/20mm spacers, thanks to Andy (Kudos). Today, I fitted the rears but, the fronts won't go on due to some pin (about 10-15mm thick, 25-30mm long). This 'pin', I shall call it, is situated on the wheel carrier. So, I did wonder whether one box was specifically for front fitment, the other for rear but, no. Sadly, not. All spacers are the same, with no recess to allow for this 'pin' that is poking out. Would this have anything to do with mine being the 07+ HR version, UK and not JDM? Or, am I simply being a retard? I just don't know. Either way, still looks 99% better, even just with the rear packed out.

Think you should look into some, Harman... after the last meet. I actually emailed the company about different colours and they want a minimum order of 50 sets :O So they proposed a bulk order of any standard colours so a GB may be on the cards. Start that thread up, then, Lukey boy! I'll go for the more subtle black, I think, would go better for once I get round to powdercoating my wheels.

Very nice looking car. What a great weekend! And, with black splashguards, is different. Welcome aboard.

I'm currently looking at the Envy 'TT style' lip. Check it out. And, the Mine's... £800-900, for a front lip?

Thats sh!tluck. I think I've come close to breaking mine too many times whilst cleaning.

Loving the mats and gaitor! Agreed, the stiff appearance... but, like most, should come down, soon. Been thinking of something similar, myself, after having bought the latest Performance VW mag...please, no . An awesome Mk5 GTi with the old retro interlagos tartan trim cut out to make a gaitor, looked very . IMO. But, not for the Z, of course!

I know, I'm not quite sure why, either. He didn't mention much about it to me, lastnight. By the sounds of it, he was treated like a terror suspect. So, probably wasn't given much of a chance to even ask! I'm sure that all the cars piled up behind were willingly throwing coppers out their windows.

Everything goes to my cat! Shouldn't be funny! But, be careful. My brother-in-law is a massive bike fan, who rarely rides the roads on any bike, other than his BMW F800 GS. He sticks to the tracks out in Spain for his other bikes. Safest way, so long as you watch out for the stupid car drivers! That new Z of yours is an absolute Tonka! Cars will be watching out for you!

I couldn't believe it. Just seen my mate, tonight, still seems in a bit of shock and awe about it all, I think. No, I haven't, just yet. Alot of outgoings, at the moment. Spacers should be on delivery now from Andy. Then they'll be going in to get powdercoated! Will post the pics up when its done. Really thinking about some Eibach's now....

Right, this got brought to my attention by a friend's Facebook status. This is such a shockingly funny story, yet sickening, all the same... Steven Day: "On way back home from West Sussex, got to the toll booth and handed over £1.49 as I lost a penny in the car.... (In fairness, its my fault and I only realised when I pulled up and was cursing like a goodun). The bloke told me that I had to find the penny so I told him I'd lost it and 'it was only a penny' so could he let me off?......Next thing I ... See Moreknow, a jobsworth lady officer gets called over (whilst the cars behind get horn happy), I tell her the situation and said I was ever so sorry but all I had was my bank card or £1.49 (not good enough)....so she lends me a penny right?.....Nope. After hunting every inch of my motor for a penny (you'd find one if you were hoovering wouldn't you?) and after offering her a 3 week old Locket that I'd found (surely worth more than a penny but in hind sight, probably not the best thing to have said), the crazy bitch shuts down every toll, calls in all the VOSA vehicles to drive in front of me and direct me over to their office with the red 'no entry' lights brightening up the front of the tunnel. At this point I'm shocked, I told her it'll cost her more in petrol for the vehicles to escort me and asked if she was taking the **** or if it was a wind up.......she said no and then in a sharp tone, told me that if I didn't follow the vehicles, I was breaking the law. They then block my path (in case I make a sharp get away) and tell me to drive over to their offices.... So there I am, little old me, driving alongside three VOSA Land Rovers with most of London looking extremely pi**ed off with me behind all their closed gates and once I'm clear, they gave me directions to a cash point in Dartford. (Are you f#*#*#* kidding me? was my response I think) Officer bloody knobrot then comes out and takes my reg number and at this point I'm keeping an eye out for Jeremy Beadle coming back from the dead...I ask him why he's taking my reg and asked if he had a penny he could give me, he chuckled and told me he'd been told to take my reg on the radio and he had no money and said I'm best to listen to ''her'' orders. I then reluctantly do a U-turn, drive into Dartford get my money and eventually make it back to the toll (and you can guess which effing toll booth I went to)..... I can't even remember the next 20 minutes of the journey or making it onto the A12 as I was just speechless. It is without a shadow of a doubt the most random, ridiculous and unbelievable thing that has ever happened and I sincerely hope that our country doesn't go into another financial meltdown due to the criminals that are a penny short at the Dartford Tunnel toll booth." 17 hours ago

Seems an awesome experience! Yeah, get a link up for the donation. I'm sure people will kindly do so. At least it gets our minds away from how badly our own country is whirlpooling down the toilet, although, I know that in this case it is the whole world which is affected. Good work.

London Road A11, Thetford. Spotted, this morning, at around 10:45am, taking it easy. Put a cracking on my face. Especially, that it was the first 370 I'd actually seen on the road!! Very, very

Had I known about this threa, earlier, I'd have put my name down to on the list! I'm on the save now, as car/holiday/tattoo season is fast approaching! Tail end of summer, I should be ok, then. So, if you were to get some extra stock in then, let me know. Thanks.

No need. she already has one of them Sh*tty Clarke's. Plenty good enough. Oh, did I mention, I don't even have a missus with a blowdryer.

All female jokes aside, all women are terrible drivers... No. Isn't it just a shame that the vast majority of people, particularly supermarket shoppers, can't recognise your car to think not to park right next to you!?!? Ahh, I hate that most... I will park out in the farthest corner, still, I'll have some POS parked beside mine.

So true! But, the only slight advantage is it comes up looking so good even with just a quick shampoo wash and dry.

You mean a single can of White Lightning?

Set your profile to the 'always appear offline' mode? Accept her (or better yet, still don't bother), she'll never be able to speak to you, on chat, at least. If she posts up on your wall. Just be ignorant, then, the next time you're eating yorkshires together at the Grandparents', give a fake apology that you are just useless on Facebook. Or, should I say, 'FB'?

No problem, man. Glad it wound up being a happy ending, for you, and you got what you want.

Hey! You went for this one then?! Very nice, dude. Good choice on changing the cloth over to half leather/half alacantara, will be very nice. Congratulations.

Very brave, impressive, and nice. Oh, and cheap. Well done!

Bumper tucks were invented for the single exit Bumper tucks don't look right on anything but single exits. What about when showing off the pretty Nismo backbox? I think tucks are fine, then. Also, what other kind of bumper tuck is there than the full width one? Hmm, was wondering the same thing. Introducing The Half Fold!?

Very good looking video. Impressive. Actually goes somewhere, unlike the song. Does K.A.D. like "fishthticks?" All I could think of was that South Park "Kanye West- Gay Fish" episode when hearing that. That girl is ridiculous, for the 100th time!
