AMT

Every picture shown is a car I hate lol Ugly, but as noted yes they sell.. people must (and I say this with tiny voice as I couldn't even afford a new car...used all the way lol) just think that buying a BMW/Merc etc is cool and showy...despite the fact you bought a 1 series hatchback with some M badges and big wheels...it still has the face of someone having a hot pitchfork rammed up its backside lol PS. Can we also add the Audi 7's rear to this as its crap too. I do indeed hate niche market gaps...they create some ugly looking cars. ... I love a good opinion so I do.. lol

Been through the clyde tunnel and was disappointed at the terrible surface and 'joins' in the road. lol Sounds good but I found myself driving to the road conditions rather than enjoying my noise, that 'wee tunnel' however is a quick blast, you don't even have to go that fast just sounds nice blipping through it

Is it just me I'd rather just have a stock one. Plenty power for your daily life lol. 1400 would be too much.

Sounds great, bit of a shame the 400 is a bit of a dogs breakfast with the new add on bits to the bumpers and stuff.

I love that wee tunnel.... lol

Thanks guys, if its not that much different than normal at hardening the ride I'll maybe invest in some in the future. The normal ones seem to suck and just break regularly lol

:lol:

No one has these poly bushes?? lol

Yes lol The grip on the 453's is pretty good to be honest, I've never had an issue when working it hard through some scenic roads and it does get worked. I am looking forward to seeing how the MPSS's compare though for all the fan fare they get. I'll get them a bit worn in to get 'that' layer thingy on new tyres you get off which wont take long then take it a good run to see whats what. Its good that all four need done so I can put on all the same, don't wanna be doing that mixed sort of stuff you know ... Only time I've ever struggled with the 453's is when chasing my neighbour in his XKR... my god it corners well. I still feel the Zed has quite fat tyre walls, 45 to me is not 'low profile' as I remember seeing over the years in reviews. I think it would be have better with the Rays being 19inchers

Ok (might be one for Alex here lol), I have replaced all four arms at the front, two of which are used and the small rattle is starting to appear again. Not bothered they've done well for used items, no complaints at all, but I am now wondering about next time I change will I use the poly bushes? Couple of things to ask, does anyone have a full set up or one set of the front with the polys on it and how much worse is the ride? (as the 350's already a bit jarring over bumps to start with). Also I'm sure one time I was told one of the arms (banana or straight) could not have the bushes removed?? Which ones is it or can either be pushed out and replaced? Thanks for any help!

Theres a reason my HR... sits on FK453's and NOT Bridgy's lol...and will be shortly bumping onto MPSS's lol (back on topic haha)

Prob do it next month. Gonna be a hefty bill no matter how cheap I find them lol Tyres are still ok just now.

Was down at Ayr with the misses on Saturday morning reasonably early and passed the 370Z parked up at the front of the Ayr Racecourse, was still there when we left later in the afternoon. Noticed a nice big van had parked next to it on the way home... nice n' close lol

Nasty....

What goes on in the mind of some people?? http://news.sky.com/story/1532804/mob-of-400-in-sustained-attack-on-police

Thank you everybody, think I'll look around once the remaining little bit of treads done and try them out!

Yeah its the MPSS, I just wanted some experience views, perhaps someone whos went from the Falkens to the MPSS's. Do they last a bit longer, do they have..noticeable.. grip. I like to take it round nice roads so it does get used properly so thought I'd ask. The Falkens to be honest have done me great, so if I was spending a bit more I'd just like a bit of knowledge on the difference. I'll possibly check them out, still got a tiny bit left on the rears and some on the front to wear out yet lol. http://www.blackcircles.com/catalogue/falken/azenis-fk-453/245/45/R18/Y/100/m?returnurl=%2forder%2ftyres%3f%26width%3d245%26profile%3d45%26rim%3d18%26speed%3dAny%26wintertyre%3dwintertyre%26minpricerange%3d0%26maxpricerange%3d0%26viewmanufacturer%3dfalken%26displayall%3d6&tyre=31732112 http://www.blackcircles.com/catalogue/michelin/pilot-super-sport/245/45/R18/Y/100/m?returnurl=%2forder%2ftyres%3f%26width%3d245%26profile%3d45%26rim%3d18%26speed%3dAny%26wintertyre%3dwintertyre%26minpricerange%3d0%26maxpricerange%3d0%26viewmanufacturer%3dmichelin%26displayall%3d6&tyre=27150821

Ok, still got a bit left but this time its all four tyres that will need done. Theres been countless threads about stuff and variations so I'm not sure what version as there's different numbers etc... anyway the question. I currently always get the Falken FK453's, quite comfy with them I know what to expect and how to handle them...smashin'. However I've been looking at the costs and for similar I can get the Michelin Pilot Sports (not 2 or 3..just ..normal pilot sports), everyone seems to recommend them highly but will I actually notice any particular difference? I do 'use' the car but it doesn't get tracked or that, so will I feel a good difference between them? Cheers much (I'm guessin Ekona may jump in here lol)

Great photos! Especially like the third one down!

Just had a look at the pictures on the previous posts, striking looking thing but not for me. It's a bit... all over the place (but again hot hatches usually 'do' this look). The back of it looks very 'high' and not sporty lol. However if one decides to chase me in the future (which they will certainly likely do...) I don't think I'll try my luck lol

I've seen a silver Nismo kicking about too, nice lookin thing

Good god the fuel bills.... pml

Super Dad!
