  1. looks good with no plate!

     

    Get a one of tarmacz flip out ones

     

    I'm just going to be a dick and run without one dude, just shove one in the window with some haggard looking double sided tape on the back..."it just fell of a minute ago officer"

  2. FYI dude, you're on the status error instagram page today :) 161 likes :)

     

    Cheers dude I saw, was well stoked to finally get noticed! Makes dragging my arse on a daily basis worth it! :D

     

    Few more random media shots from last weekend

    Car looks top notch man. Wheel nuts look sweet too .. Same sort of height I'm looking at running mine.

     

    What have you got in the way of camber correction front and rear?

     

    Tom.

     

    Thanks man! I'm glad people like them, they certainly ended up costing me a damn sight more than I expected!

     

    None haha! I'm running roughly -4 degrees at the rear and I'd say similar up front, and my rear toe is miles out, I'm going through tyres like they're made of chocolate!

     

     

  4. Sorry guys I thought I replied to everybody but apparently it just posted a "." Taps talk sucks so I'll have to do them all separate

     

    looks cool man

     

    how you getting on with the exhaust.. mine hits speedbumps still lol

     

    Thanks mate, haha horrendous! It bottoms out a lot on what seems to be flat ground, it's an issue I really need to address and really should have a long time ago, but every time I come close to affording it spend my money on other random parts!

  5. Parcel from J land turned up a week or two ago but only just fitted what was inside, just in time for the corolla brotherhood gathering last Saturday at Soul RC! It was an awesome day, loved the drive there and back convoying with two 86's ! Here's a few pics! 8yrana8y.jpgybusate9.jpgjynytu2a.jpga7uny3eh.jpguta2unyg.jpgnavy3upy.jpg

  7. I don't think you should fit any lips or skirts, it looks awesome as it is :D

     

    Thanks :) I was unsure about getting one at first but it was mega cheap, so test fitted it and I really like it, just needs the plate deleted to compliment it! I won't be getting any skirts though.

  9. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE im begging you get a import 13x7 or 12x6 front plate and ditch that 4x4 plate

     

    Haha don't worry the plates going completely soon dude, was at players classic yesterday and picked up a Nismo V1 lip, test fitted it without the plate,seeing as my plate was literally hanging on by a thread of tape by time I got home for some reason (maybe even fates telling me to lose it?;)) and it looks a million times better so pics of that coming up soon!

     

    Front spacers are fixed now so they'll be put on this week if I get time but for now here's my car at Players classic, I love this show, it's easily my favourite show of the year for the last two years and Goodwood circuit is an amazing place, and there's just an awesome vibe throughout the whole day!

  10. After a total of 15ish hours messing around with coilovers and struggling with getting it up and down off and on planks and jacks, and a bit of road testing I have stance again! Just needs front spacers again now! Lower than last year but I'm still being restricted by my arches and POS Japspeed exhaust! asy3eva8.jpg

  11. Sorry I didn't get back to you dude, I'm not on here too often anymore.

     

    Car ended up with no stance for Japfest again, which was gutting. The wheel company didn't get them done in time, then phoned me the following Monday to say there was air pockets in the lacquer! So I only actually got them back yesterday!

     

    They look awesome though, they've been cut way finer with a ton of lacquer so look really strange from certain angles!

     

    Will get some pics up as soon as they're on the car next week all going well!

     

    I'm at players classic on the airlift showcase (ironic with being static n'all) if anybody else is around.

     

     

    Japfest no stance pic:

  12. The point (as with the dildo shift knobs) is that they're closer to your steering wheel, although in my own experience it does take twice as long to shift with them!

  13. Haven't updated this in forever and haven't done too much to the Z of recent! Burned through another set of tyres ( think they covered about 3k miles) ...wasn't even sliding on them, I think the toes out a ridiculous amount since I raised it! I've had the clutch changed for an exceedy one but my slave cylinder is lazy, so my bit point is still about 3mm off the floor :/

     

    On some more positive notes, I attempted to mirror polish the rotiforms with some success but the up keep was crazy so they're currently getting recut, hopefully to be back on my car in time for japfest next week which is also when I plan to drop it again! Hoping to roll my arches more and go lower!

     

    Other than that my tax rebate is due soon so I'm hoping that'll free up so money to finally get my bumper and change my exhaust. I'll post up pics of the rotiforms when I have them back, for now here's a pic of my car on my dad's stock wheels with no stance...:(

  14. Thanks, I am constantly checking eBay but I seem

    To be too slow on any of the"breaking" ones and I've never actually seen a facelift bumper for sale separately :/ I guess ill have to keep checking

  15. Again no major updates but the creaking noise has been fixed. The mechanic at work thought it was the pad retaining spring, but after changing that it wasn't, Turns out a stud in my front spacer was working itself loose. So now my car is back in proper "no stance" mode again. I'm not bothering with sorting it out until the weather starts to brighten up again.

     

    Going to source a facelift bumper from work next week I think, while I have a bit of cash free.

  16. Love it, it was the US stance cars that made me even consider buying a Z, that car is also 100% static and the wheels alone cost more than I paid for my Z.

     

    Granted its not to everybody's taste but you have to appreciate the work that goes into getting a car to sit like that. It's so wide he stores it under a SUV cover in the winter!

     

    Not to offend anybody but surely you must have been living under a rock to not have seen at least one other stanced Z like this pop up on the Internet in the last 5 years?
