  1. You'll be fine. I done nurburgring and Mallory park on standard jdm brakes.
  2. I'll be up for this! I'm in Watford so not far!
  3. I've never used baffles in mine. I'm just used to the noise now I don't even notice it. You know its loud when giving someone a lift and you can't have a conversation...
  4. Right so that clears that one up then!
  5. Right here goes ATM I have Fronts - 225/50/17 Rears - 235/50/17 Does it matter if ibuy 225/45/17 and 235/45/17? Also, can I run 235/45/17 all round? It's just I want Goodyear eagle f1s but they not that common in 50. Cheers

    I'm looking at these for my 17s. You say they're phasing them out, what are they being replaced with ?
  7. Was behind you for a while in a black zed with stupid orange wheels. First time I've seen a sunset in a while and always forget how good they look!
  8. I like it! Ild buy a carbon one.

    Black rays?

    I personally think that any colour apart from silver makes the car look cheap; and that's coming from someone who's has a set of bright orange wheels, and had a set of matte black wheels. I think the car looks like it has a lot more class with silver wheels.
  10. Sorry, but that just doesn't look right.... Do the whole thing and it will look 100x better.
  11. I've got the same thing, and literally just ordered some off zmanalex about 5 minutes ago!
  12. Would probably give it away tbh. Far better cars out there than a 350z when you are a multi millionaire. If I wanted a car to mod and run round a track ild get a r35 and make it stupid power. When driving range rovers/lambos all week. Why would you ever want to get back in a 350z?
  13. I haven't had bungs in my k1 since I had it installed 6 months ago. I've got a doctors appointment on Monday due to not being able to hear properly anymore.....
  14. I actually live about 5 mins down the road from these guys and been to look at a car there before. The car I went to look at had been in an accident and repaired to a "immaculate standard". So I phoned up, asked to go have a look and was there in a few minutes. Arrived and saw the car sitting outside. First thing I noticed was the whole bumper and wing wasn't aligned. Anyways, I asked to have a look inside, the guy gave me the keys and said "have a look yourself" whilst standing outside his shop on his phone and having a fag. Completely not interested in making the sale obviously. After about 10mins of looking over it myself I asked if he could take me out for a drive. His response was "car park not big enough for ya?" So I bit my lip, attempted to start the car several times, but failed, eventually it started but made some horrible noises, popped the bonnet and had a look. This was when I saw the extent of the repair damage and how badly the bonnet and wing had been put back on. Slammed the bonnet back down and took it for a drive in the 50yards of room I had. Parked the car back up and went in search of the guy to see what he wanted for it. I asked if he would be repairing the damage and sorting the starter motor fault, to which he replied no, and asking if he would take any money off for it, he replied with "no, this will be gone by next week" I said I'll think about it and left. Spoke to my next door neighbour who is a mechanic and asked if he knew them he said "yeah, they don't really have a clue what they're doing, they buy junk and put the price up." This was my experience anyways, and wouldn't even think about going to look at a car there again.
  15. Also, I have a k1 exhaust so if you want to hear one before you buy one, give me a shout!
  16. Hi buddy! I'm from Watford and work in St. Albans, Waterend barn actually. You'll see my car, black jdm with bright orange wheels! I'll keep a look out for you!
  17. I paid £5000 for my black jdm just over a year ago. Yes it's poverty spec, but that's hasn't taken anything away from it. I personally dislike leather seats. Had them in my previous 2 cars and hated them. Much prefer the comfort of cloth. Secondly, I change my wheels more than people have hot dinners. Had it a year and already looking for my 4th set, so having rays wasn't a big deal. I've also been to nurburgring last year, done Mallory park, already planning this years ring trip and hopefully going to do donington park aswell. Admittedly, i am looking to upgrade to brembos so there is a downside. But for the price I paid, and condition of my car, I'm happy I bought a jdm poverty spec. I realised that the car is probably at its lowest depreciation point. If I had spend £7k+ on it, when I came to sell I would have lost a lot of money. So even if I lose £1000 on this, it won't bother me as much. Don't be put off by jdm poverty spec just because some people look down on you due to a square number plate or good coloured calipers.
  18. Hi there. I have; 4 x 17" oz alloys with tyres professionally resprayed in bright orange 4 x 18" team dynamics sprayed in matte black with tyres And 4 x 17" 350z alloys without tyres.
