  1. Concrete blocks? Screw that, last event I went to they used cones for the points, that still ripped peoples rear ends off, a concrete block will send the car the scrappy! Anyway, tow hooks, I think I seen a banana shaped one that curved under the bumper to the crash beam.
  2. Rays do look smaller because of the lip, which is why most of us go 19's when we upgrade, darker coloured alloys also look smaller than lighter ones. No experience of using lightweight wheels, but the steering is slightly heavier at higher speeds with my current 245/35/19 fronts compared to the standard 18 sizes, not a bad thing.
  3. Theres one on eBay so I guess they're ready
  4. I think UKDM and JDM Xenons are the same, but how did they get scratched inside? I also think theres a UV coating on the inside so I wouldn't recommend touching it. Zmanalex may have some lights for you though
  5. Varis did do their front lip in both FRP and CF, so it could be a genuine one Every days and school day Fit looks spot on too and seeing as I've never heard of Varis reps... Could be...
  6. 19" Rota's are about 0.5-1.0kg heavier than OEM standard 18's. Weights are taken with tyres, half worn on OEM, new on Rota's, so the Rota's (on they're own) are probably a bit lighter considering the extra 3mm of tread on the tyre and the extra width of the rubber. Rota's are just styling wheels, nothing lightweight about them. If you want 19" lightweight you're talking near £2k plus rubber. Ray's are by far and away the cheapest way to get into lightweight rims, but that's not what you're looking, you're after OEM looking 19's, something i've never looked for because they are fugly compared to GTR's, Grids etc etc
  7. Someones put a red paper clip on it
  8. Drop it 30mm and you'll have to roll the rear, fronts will be fine and it'll look awesome with those offsets.
  9. Callipers tend to look better when they stand out, ie red, if they were black you couldn't see them.
  10. The other half has sensors on her bimmer, they squeal, she stops, she's still 6 feet away, useless!
  11. One of those was an L3 service though . Pete That must include both diffs
  12. Rear has 2 prongs, easy to break off though
  13. It would be great if it was the cats, but if your current exhaust fits the crapspeed pipes then this should too
  14. Looks like a stillen air filter with heat shield. Splitter looks like a fibreglass copy of the varis carbon fibre one, looks good
  15. 245/35/19 front and 275/35/19 are standard sizes for 19s. I think 235/35 front and 265/35 rear also works. As said before, need the offset to know if you'll need spacers or not.
  16. Good point about the speedo, I forgot about that. Didn't s15's come with 17's?
  17. Cancel it because they're megans and get some eibachs. Traders on here do them, you'll have them by friday
  18. Front fogs? Serviced 3 times in 8 years?
  19. The S15 doesn't have traction control so he can stick whatever he likes on there. But if the current tyres are standard zed sizes he should drop the profile of both front and rear or it'll look odd and should fit. A 40 series tyre will have roughly a 12.5mm smaller sidewall.
  20. That's site has scam written all over it. £627 for a full Chargespeed Bottomline carbon lip kit? You can't buy the side skirts for even near that money never mind the whole thing.
  21. Rear lights will be the same the world over.
  22. Buy from the states, much cheaper.
  23. I think you'll find the Japan spec is bigger than the UK for this car as mine came with everything plus it feels better to own a REAL jap car that was registered in Japan and had jap owners Let me get this straight. You bought a top spec'd and modified jap import, and that means jap imports are better than UK?
