  1. I'm sure many of you know what this diffuser looks like, and if you don't, it's awesome I've been talking to RT Performance about this and if everything goes to plan, there should be a group buy available for this in fibre glass, which will be less than half the price of the current replica carbon fiber ones available from Shine, Mastergrade etc. This is more of a feeler than anything else to see if it's possible, and if the numbers are there, then we can go ahead and take it to the next level. Here is a link to the diffuser for those who don't know what it is. It's very rare over here and I'm only aware of maybe 3 or 4 in the UK. Genuine Top Secret ones are still around, but are like hens teeth and retail at around $1400 plus shipping at around $400 then add taxes and customs. Quality copies like this one are around $550 - $800 plus $400 shipping and tax and customs after that. http://www.drivelinestore.com/mastergrade_carbon_fiber_/carbon_fiber_rear_diffusers/mas03350zrts/i-495445.aspx RT says he can do them in FRP for £290 + P&P which is a frigging bargain, and maybe further down the line if the interest is there, reprodice them in Carbon too But we need 5+ names to get the ball rolling. The more the merrier. Stick your name on the list if you'd be interested Kyle 1. 2. 3. 4. 5.
  2. Personally I prefer the one we have at the moment but that may change if I were to see them in the flesh on a car.
  3. You're right, the advice is usually to get the geo checked. Small things can big a difference so I'd certainly start there, despite it being done 6 months before the spacers were fitted.

    Spare Wheel

    If the rubber on your 20s is chosen to be as close to OEM size tyres then you'll be fine

    Fuel

    97 RON is super unleaded.
  6. Fiestas fault I guess, he parked like a plonked so others had to follow suit.

    Fuel

    Yes

    Plenum spacer ?

    Don't forget to add shipping, customs and taxes, it gets to pretty much the same price as here then. Tarmac does the motordyne and Wasso has his own sexy anodised ones for sale As for the size, go for the 5/16", the 1/2" won't do much if anything more unless your boosted, plus the strut would be hitting the bonnet at that height.
  9. i can ask mate, im sure abit of wet & dry would sort that out though True, but if they're anodised it would take some serious elbow grease! Plus, surely not colouring them is saving them work hi mate, sorry only blue or red available. Ok, thanks for checking though mate

    Fuel

    It's not about the power, it's about ignition timing of the fuel. Different octane ratings mean it'll ignite at different temperatures. Driving hard on the wrong fuel can secretly screw things up at the cost of a new engine.
  11. Have went a few times and was quite enjoyable trotting along. However I have no rhythm so it hurts my ass
  12. Great news, not all dealerships are assholes It's a shame the car was a lemon, but at some point we will all buy one, hopefully this will be his last
  13. It'll be fine, I'm currently running a spacer, JWT and cat back and it's fine. Might idle a little high like mine until you get it mapped but it's only a few 100 RPM.

    Camber

    If the cambers out you'll be able to see it and yes it'll duff up the inside edge. Also if there is too much toe in its do the same thing, but camber is most likely.
  15. Cants be a japspeed Y pipe, it's still in one piece Looks like a cobra maybe, but I can't remember if it connects the 2 banks up at the top or the bottom like that one. Good buys for £200

    Ideal fitment?

    Here are some rears to get refurbed in the right colour: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Rota-GTR-Drift-10j-x-19-5x114-3-et20-Gunmetal-Nissan-Toyota-Alloy-Wheels-x2-/281164263259?pt=UK_CarParts_Acc_Wheels_tyres_Trims_Car_Rims_ET&hash=item4176b22f5b I'm aware the last 2 are 19's by the way, but £700 is a bargain for 4 new rims plus whatever you can get the rears paint matched for.

    What colour you after? Not sure if you've mentioned it yet or not. And what colour is your car?
  19. Are they vreds? Sexy tread!

    Camber

    What are your camber settings at at the moment?

    Ideal fitment?

    Why don't you just buy some second hand rims and that'll free up the cash for the tyres if they don't already have some. There are some great bargains to be had out there on eBay and possibly piston heads.
  22. If no one guesses ill take the orange tow strap Mondeo ST or similar?
  23. Lights and spoiler need trashed but I actually like Lambo doors on almost any sports car and will possibly add them to mine some day, but the car needs the right look to pull them off, ie. full bodykit, not a fugly spoiler that doesn't fit and gash wheels.

    350z Eyebrows

    Vinyl could look good if you can get the same colour and someone with a bit of an artistic hand to create the shape you want, however, Wasso recently had ebay eyelids fitted and they look great.

    What Aidan said, you'll not notice the stretch difference with those tyres. You'll have a 20mm thinner tyre on a 12.7mm thinner rim, so only 7.3mm more stretch, 3.65mm per side.
