Im going to throw it out there... I kinda like it

I'd be up for a 350z-forum snowboarding/ski trip. I want to do go next year so badly, but none of my mates do it or interested in learning or down right too stingy. Kinda stuck. lol :/

You say get the right boots, but what should you look out for with boots? What makes a pair of boots good or bad?

Considering I had 3 hours of lessons the day before I went to Les Crosets in Switzerland and rode the whole time thinking I was a regular when I now know I'm a goofy rider, I really liked it, I would much rather go somewhere with more nightlife, we stay in a mega posh place, as my boss who took us knew the owner. There was literally one bar in the whole area. Snow when we went was shocking, more like ice most the time but I still really enjoyed it and want to go again, problem for me is no one to go with, no one I know does it, and i dont know anyone nowadays who isnt a scrooge, lol

Right I have a few questions if you have a minute. Firstly, I want to get into snowboarding some more, I did a trip to Switzerland for a couple of days in January, Loved it! Well the snowboarding anyway. I did a few hours of lessons before that too. Anyway, I am 6ft, a goofy rider, so firstly what length board do I need? I did know but seem to have completely forgot. I live near Milton Keynes (Snow slope there) and i work in Kings Langley (snow slope there) so seems ideal. What I want to ask is advise on the gear, I am thinking of buying my own board and boots while its off season and the sales are happening, I don't care if I don't have this seasons colours etc. So what brand boards, boots and bindings would you recommend for someone like me? I cant afford the best of the best, as much as I'd love too. But what deals do you guys know of? Also does anyone on here ever go to the indoor snow slopes? Or go away in the winter anywhere, stories, advice anything really. Just thought I'd get some boarding chat going

did mine when i had my car at the body shop last month, 150 Celsius for 1 min 45 seconds, was just about enough. I bought 2 bulbs as that was the only listing I could find at the time.

bead blasters are great fun, lol.

215 on a 10.5, damn, those alloys must be murdered by the pot holes and kerbs, I debated 215 on the 9.5, but thought id try keep the stretch similar front to rear. plus 215/235 really buggers the Rolling Radius, tyres look to small then in my opinion, I was going to get et0 but thought et22 will sell on better later on. Where did you buy them from?

et0 all round. hmm. That is very aggressive, god knows how low ive gone, but my coilovers are at there limits lol. Id like to know the height from the ground to arch on a standard 350z as id like to know how low I have actually gone lol Be prepared for a harsh ride and the practicality of a bull in a china shop. If you are trying to get a good "stance" then with those offsets and widths, you need to have a stretched tyre for it to fit in the arches, as well as look good. What wheels you gone for?

Fairly. 9.5 - 225/35 10.5 - 245/35

What have you ordered exactly? 10.5 et0 all round or just the rears? what about the fronts, No I currently don't have any adjustments on the camber, to get it to tuck in like that though has meant me decking it to achieve that camber. if you don't want to go so severely low, you will need the camber adjustment kits.

and she's back to full health

the light split apart: Now for the smoothness and new bulbs The difference silvertec bulbs make The difference some LED bulbs make Now a clear lensed and red LED fog light Smooth

exactly the guide I used 2 minutes at 150c did the trick for me. and it wasnt even fully pre heated lol. I was mega worried though.

progress!

are you from round Milton Keynes way, see one of these with these graphics at the local meet thing whenever I go.

$1300 for some indicators, link?

I have found nothing works for me, my eyes are the worst, today I have a nice lump under my right eye from irritation.

i still have my little rust bucket corsa for the boring long commute to work, my 350z is for the weekend, good weather days etc

The wife is pi**ed off with me again, last night while she was asleep I swapped her Tampax for a party popper, honestly, no ****ing sense of humour whatsoever!

i dont get it...

Its just machining marks on the back of the spokes. Perfectly fine

yes you can use a standard valve, just means there will be a hole where the valve slots through the centre section

just thought id re read this. the wheels were staggered so it was only 2x 305/25's and 2x 275/30's If i remember correctly. the car itself was this one, (granted partly enhanced by the looks of the image)

Egg (aka a bulge in the sidewall) is a tear in the structure of the tyre, so yes no matter how small it is dangerous and its there waiting for enough pressure to pop it at this weak point. As for Volk Valves, are they just a 90 degree valve? if so not many places stock them but you can just use a generic valve and leave the hole poking through the face of the wheel. In any case a standard valve is fine, I have never had a valve hole in an ally be a completely different size to standard. I have fitted everything from £30 shi**ers to £20,000 Brabus SLR alloys Get a picture up if you can of the valve.
