  1. I've lost two of the alloy outer cups from mine so still happy to pay for the two you have left.

     

    I would consider selling my remaining two which I think are a bit worn but complete, however I think they might be slightly different to yours, mine look like this:

    If you're looking for options then these are the ProRacer FN01R-C ones which I'd be happy to sell, I think I have one with the lighter centre disc, the other three being darker (I think) but I'm sure could be recoloured somehow:

  2. As way of a better explanation, I'm thinking of getting my wheels painted in either shadow chrome (or whatever it is!) like the standard 370Z Rays or something similar to what they are currently which is HyperGunMetallic like in these photos but running without caps:

    The caps look okay but if I'm buying new caps I'd prefer something a bit less bling so ideally looking for caps that give a clean Vossen style look:

  4. Will help handsomely towards your new caps if you sell me the original ones!

     

    I like your thinking! Unfortunately my caps aren't really usable as two were melted by the previous owner. :scare:

     

    I did enquire last year about getting some new replacements from the manufacturer and the answer was $108 including shipping for a set of four which didn't sound too bad compared to those second hand prices! I can't help wondering though how long they would last as the quality of mine didn't look great and brake dust, wheel cleaning chemicals (yes I sometimes get someone else to wash my car :blush: ) and possibly heat build-up probably aren't going to be kind to new ones either.

     

    I did buy a set of used hexagonal ProRacer FN01R-C caps from eBay US which fit pretty well, I just couldn't decide if I liked the look of them or not.

  5. They look nice but £175! If its embossed then it should be fine after a respray?

     

    There's a recessed 5ZIGEN logo on the painted rim itself which looks good so I guessed it would be okay but I'm not sure how easy it would be replicated on a cap, I guess it depends on how many coats of paint are used.

  6. Anyone got any thoughts on where to get some custom centre caps for my 5ZIGEN wheels? I enquired with one 3D printing place but they quoted £175 just to design them with the printing an additional cost on top. Not sure if 3D printed plastic or machined from aluminium is the best option, I'm thinking of something I can get painted when I get the wheels refurbed. I like the look of the ones below but either plain or with the 5ZIGEN logo, don't know if the logo will get lost once painted though.

     

    Looking for advance especially from anyone that's done this before. :)

  7. Guys I missed out, however I found ADN143109 on eBay for just under £23 each! Doesnt let me copy link but search you will find!

    I'm always wary of cheap branded stuff on eBay and Amazon Marketplace as I can't help thinking they may be fake! Not sure if that's likely with Blue Print brake discs though. :shrug:

  8. So are these the rears for brembo 350z then?ADN143159

    I didn't get rear ones fitted so unfortunately don't have the part number on my invoice. I suspect these are the corresponding ones for the rear but you'd need to find some way of checking the part number:

    They only seem to have one and it's expensive though.

  9. Just had new front discs fitted at Japex, I've gone for uprated pads but decided that standard Brembo-spec discs would be good enough for my needs. Ross recommended Delphi or Blue Print discs as being better than Pagid for a similar price. Checking my invoice afterwards it looks like he's supplied Blue Print for which he's charged a competitive price, however a quick search has highlighted that Amazon are currently doing the same discs for the amazing price of just £14.99 per disc! It's too late for me but get them whilst you can if you'll be needing some soon. :)

  10. Japex are replacing my HR Y pipe on Wednesday, I believe it's in reasonable condition as Ross said it didn't need replacing. Won't know more until it's off but you'd be welcome to it if you can collect from Kings Langley.

     

    Thanks for the offer. Could you let me know if it is in really good shape and how much you want for it? I'm in the South, near Bromley.

     

    Many thanks

     

    I'll ask Ross for an honest opinion and to hold onto it if it's good. I'm not after any money for it, just happy to pass it on if you're happy to collect. :)

  12. Would a standard one fit? Japex is replacing mine on Wednesday and as far as I can tell the one coming off isn't blowing although it's hard to tell when the rest of the exhaust is. :lol:

  13. Just got a set for a member in here :)

     

    I can get you some used ones if you're patient enough £95 shipped or brand new ones for £199 including 4 locking nuts + tool.

    I'm guessing that might have been d95gas as I pointed him in the direction of some extra-cheap 370Z Rays. :teeth:

     

    £95 doesn't sound too bad, is that including the locking nuts or are they just with the new option?

  14. I'm seriously considering trying out some 370Z Rays so I thought I'd post up to see how easy/expensive it'll be to get some OEM flat seat nuts. I stand to be corrected but I believe they are part numbers are 40224-JK00A for the standard and 999W2-JT000 for the locking ones. Anyone got any or know where I get some? Thanks. :D
