  1. Believe the rays at the rear are 8.5, in which case 255, 8.0 for the front, 245.
  2. Wrong title, Rain + Lock + Braking + M3 = bad
  3. Surely they look like berk hfcs?
  4. Is this the first time you've ever looked at pistonheads show cars ricey? I came here expecting a barryboys thread, i'm now bitterly disappointed
  5. Of course they bleeding let go when pushing on, especially if you don't have any heat in them. They're budget midrange tyres, what were you expecting, michelin ps2s?
  6. Generally the idea is if you keep on top of it it's not something you need to do too often.
  7. Machining takes a fooking age.
  8. I guess it really depends on how much time you have to spare. That and it's not just machining they do. A da isn't as good as a rotary either.
  9. I wouldn't try the el cheapo line of pagid. I think centric blank rotors would be cheap oem equivalents, probably resold by stoptech. Dixcel also do fairly reasonable blank discs. Personally, i'd be changing them for something a little better, maybe dixcel, performance friction, dba, etc.
  10. Just how much camber are you running? Forget what your setup is. Ekona, you gonna try some 453s?
  11. Neil, reality is nothing like gone in 60 seconds, unless that nos tank is actually reheheally massive
  12. Gone in 60 seconds? Hell yes One day i'll have an eleanor, one day
  13. Ahh well now Can't trust Ian 9.5 is totally fine (seems to be inside of the arches to me ), 10.5 is doable, but they did seem to be running a fair amount of camber out the front with the 10.5"s, with it almost touching the arches
  14. I think some yanks have done 11" up front? It may be possible, i'm not sure what offsets though. They've definitely done 10.5" as above. Bloody tight fit though
  15. It's not *that* brave Think maybe 11j would just about fit on the front. http://my350z.com/forum/socal-marketpla ... 5-6-a.html
  16. It's surely not so much wheels, but tyres at that size. Either way 10" isn't even close to an unusual setup in the us at the front
  17. I've only ever seen any rust when it's been raining and the rust gets ground off, only a tiny bit even then, with some rust runs down the spokes I am, however, running stoptech/centric discs at the rear and how the compound works in tandem with the disc is also probably a factor. Very strange though. Either way it's a pain the the arris staying on top of polished wheels, only made slightly easier by keeping a coat or two of wax/sealant on them, gtechnic wheel armour is excellent on the painted faces though.
  18. Ds2500's, after about 100 miles each week, the fronts are pretty dusty, the rears are okayish.
  19. Aside from what I think about EBC brakes, I think the dixcel pads seem to span my front discs and ferodos the rear just fine? What about some dixcel or performance friction pads? Though the dixcel z rated pads are a bit dusty, but not that bad.
  20. I'm not dropped, but I think 255 is about the max width for the front really with a drop even pulling the arches, even that is a little snug, 245 would be better imho. I think 9.5 front et 17, 10.5 rear et 18 would be fine dropped, it's reasonably flush. All depends on how much stretch you like. Daren't drop mine, but the norm in the usa is to drop on this size. Even at a few mph it bottoms out over some bumps Lmgt4s seem available in multiple offsets? Surely it says inside the wheel? In the usa they seem to have pretty much found the limits of sizes Read this. http://my350z.com/forum/wheels-and-tire ... lcome.html
  21. Hmm? Endurance? I've got some, personally don't like the smell much, but it works well
  22. Megs tech wax smells nasty Try sniffing some victoria concours or zymol
  23. You do buy waxes/car shampoos right lrf4n?
