you fitting it yourself mate, any chance of a video with just the stillen Y-pipe fitted if it doesn't cause you any bother, probably a real inconvenient thing to request but if you don't ask??

assuming you have oem system fitted that is

I've been talking to tarmac about these and maybe having a group buy on them.

he is not sure about wether the nismo CAI kit fit uk cars, i believe it to be the same as the aem can kit but am not 100% sure on that, fit uk cars.

this is the nismo kit I'm talking about

and this thread is why i ask, its 5 years old now so the design may have changed since

2nd point down

done these my self about 2 weeks ago. wanted to let it settle down and get it washed before pictures, so here they are. personally think the small drop is perfect for the car, still no speed bump issues and really firms the ride up nicely.

the tein s-tech springs lower it nicely, about an inch all round. and still more than enough clearance for most speed bumps.

Can i get first dibs on that then please mate?

all already done mate, i was after a bit more noise and quite enjoy messing about with stuff. my springs are on so i need something else to play with

looking into getting an injen CAI kit for my 04 zed. i keep reading about heat soak and how it will effect the power.

the injen kit, like the momentum one i believe (another option and probably favourite if someone could source it) holds the filter in front of the radiator behind the bumper. i can see how the heat soak may occur when stationary but surely when the car is moving it will only get cold air coming in from the front of the car and the heat soak pretty much be non existant. any views on that?

I like the look of this one. would be what i went for i think

no visible damage to my nose as yet, tiny bit swollen, if it bruises i will do pics of that aswell.

fitted a set of then S-tech springs to it today. wasn't to bad a job, took 5 hours ish,few injuries as always, was trying to undo a bolt, bolt gave and i smacked my nose into the wheel arch, smarted a little.

will get pics done once I've cleaned it. only a small drop but does look good with the spacers already fitted, and ok so far over speed bumps. handling feels a lot more precise and definitely feels more confident.

Larkspeed was cheapest i could find

Think i may have a look at getting myself one then.

Hey all,

just wondered what peoples views are on personalised plates. if i was to get one id be looking at getting one along the lines of P?? HEF, as in my name, they cost around £189 so quite reasonable in terms of personalised plates.

I've always been unsure about personalised plates as they seem to have a stigma attached to them and people seem to have negative views on them and drivers with them.

just after peoples opinions really

I got my tens from Camskill mate, They were for a coupe but were the cheapest i could find.

There are pics of mine before and after in here. 20mm and 25mm as your after.

Gave it a wash today, beautiful winters day. Some better pictures of the spacers.

Fitted this today. I think it looks smart, not sure if it goes with the orange leather, maybe a matching gator or a new handbrake to match the shifter. Whats peoples thoughts?

Drove 70 odd miles to clacton last night. Spacers havent had any adverse affects onthe car at all, if anything it seems a bit more confident in corners than before.

If anyone is after spacers might i suggest larkspeed, came in at just over £200 posted iirc, cheapest place i could find.

abbey isn't far to travel from those places. between junctions 5/6 of m25.

I've never been with my car but lots of people rate them very highly, read this thread.

Ive only moved it around onthe drive so far, it did feel like it was slightly less responsive. Im gonna take it out tonight when the traffic dies down and have a drive. I will update with what i think.

fitted some spacers, 20mm front and 25mm back. got some twin s tech springs coming today aswell.
