  1. There is a YouTube video of 4 different 350's in Japan from various tuner companies competing on track, at least 2 of these ran square set ups, so it obviously has its benefit. If it was up to me, i'd have square set up for track only wheels, so I can swap front and rears when necessary and another set of staggered for road use.
  2. So these will be track day only wheels? In that case I wouldn't be bothered about what tyres I used, TCS will be off anyway
  3. You told me the car was in the garage having the work done until at least Saturday. Putting a deposit down over the phone meant I had no way of getting a receipt for the agreed works such as the wheel bearing. I highly doubt anyone would put a deposit down on a car completely blind going on just your word, but that may be me being naive. As i said, I felt you tried to pressurise and intimidate into putting a deposit down there and then threw your toys out the pram when i didnt You asked what i would like to pay for the car, not what my final offer was. I apologise for not immediately ceding to your asking price. Making sure a car has legal tyres, a tailgate which won't decapitate you and no issues with the wheel bearing is now considered a high standard? Not the first time I have heard this about Tradelink to be honest.
  4. You'll regret selling the LMGT4's! So on that basis, I'm out

    McLaren 570s

    Looks much better than the 650 which appears to me like a cut and shut of the P1 and 12C, this appears more like a mini P1
  6. You're right, running lowered will put extra stress on the drop link and wear it out quicker, so people tend to buy adjustable drop links to bring it back to OEM specs.
  7. Aren't OEM about £280 brand new from Clark Motorsport? I don't particularly like those ones you posted, a bit too tacky for me.
  8. I assume you already have a V2 bumper?

    It's too loud

    With the manifolds it'll always be a bit louder, but I certainly wouldn't be changing them out as they will give the best power is you chose to remap in the future From what I have heard the Miltek is about the quietest you can get other than OEM, but it has a nice tone. I went in a 370z with a Miltek and was not a fan but it was supercharged so that will make a difference Strokes, folks and all that jazz

    It's too loud

    Looks like you have tubular manifolds, crapspeed Y pipe and a cobra rear end. It'll be loud because of the manifolds and the Cobra is probably a non resonated version. is there a silencer between the Y pipe and back box?
  12. Hel lines are fine, many many on the forum have them trouble free. You should have recieved 2 short and 2 long lines and a couple of P clips. You will be replacing the line from the caliper to the hard brass lines at the top of the wheel arch. Everything else can go in the bin.

    Toyo Tyres

    Toyo what? They have many models of tyre but I guanantee no matter which ones you are talking about 70% of people will say get the MPSS What price have you been quoted for the Michelins?
  14. Some say their Cobra drones, others say it doesn't. In my opinion, the latter are in denial Pretty much all aftermarket exhausts will drone a little, it's personal preference how much you can deal with. The Milltek is pretty quiet until you mash the accelerator, but it's also quite pricey.
  15. Trading the Zed in for an M6 is best monetary decision I ever made

    It's too loud

    If the Y pipe is broken, that's why it's loud
  17. I'd be changing the rears for MPSS, but I wouldn't be binning the front until they're done.
  18. I miss the boy racers trying to egg me on
  19. The mid box looks OEM, not saying it is, just that it has that sort of shape. Not a clue about the exhaust, sorry.
  20. £8k would be expensive even at dealer prices for the 40K car. Your 04 with 70K is worth about £5k trade MAX and thats if it's nice and clean.
  21. Not before the end of April he won't, as he mentioned it needs gone by then.
