  1. Racing is horrendously expensive, yes it's exciting but unless you have thousands to sling at it, stick to track days/timed stuff (imho) and lessons, which you'd have to do anyway to get track skills up. (even then, it's still pricey) You'll still get the smiles, have *some* money left to do other things, like eat\drink and what have you
  2. How much cash have you got to sling away ? (I'm not being facetious) We need autocross over here, sadly it'll never happen like it does in the States.
  3. On the road when I had them on last year, pretty much the only drive I had that was 'spirited' (me with 2 mates in GT3's), they were quickly fading after about 20 mins. Believe it or not but the Yellow Stuff I had on prior to that didn't do that. (same set up, fresh fluid etc and even discs skimmed by Marcus) Make of that what you will.
  4. I really don't like ds2500's. I don't understand why other people seem to like them, felt horrible to me.

  6. Quality is much better using the hack Sounds fine to me, not like I use it much as the exhaust it quite fruity
  7. I use one of these type of things http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Car-Audio-Tape-Cassette-to-Jack-AUX-for-IPOD-MP3-IPhone-3-5mm-Connector-UK-New-/351567377881?hash=item51db0c75d9:g:IzYAAOSw5VFWN0BP
  8. Sadly I can imagine them doing this as they do it with other components ! I'd personally have gone with BC or JWT. I really hope something is sorted out for you man
  9. I wouldn't advise to rely solely on this for any typical guy under 50. Use online stuff sparingly, as yes it certainly has it's place but being a man, meet girls/women properly in person- it's far better for the (male) soul in the long run, trust me. This was the main thing for me that freaked me out when I was younger, so I can give advice on that stuff if wanted (PM). One thing to note, as it sounds quite serious seeing that you've been prescribed medication, it's most likely to be with you for life. It'll never go but you can keep it at bay mostly but understanding more about it and yourself. Churchill called it the black dog. Great tips chaps ! (ooer) Good advice on general health, drinking, food intake and exercise are all contributing factors.
  10. Woa that's very cheap for a big beauty beasty.
  11. OUCH - that's really not good I hope you've emailed them with photo's etc ? I just had a recent geo done (more neg camber to tuck the bolt into the arm more), only once I've had to tighten one of the nuts up. But I've marked them (and other arms) so I can visually check before a hard drive. Ultimately I'd go with SPL if doing regular track days. Dont think Ichiba cares one bit... Thanks for the info! Ahhh I see, I thought you meant you had DW ones and they had snapped. On the rear I have phase 2 motortrend (P2M) camber arms (supplied by Torqen), which look like many others, I bought them as they came with lockout washers (but they are easy enough to make).
  12. It'll cost you around £50-70 to find out (+ a few hours)

  14. Or one of these (ball joint separator) will pop it off in seconds for anyone else stuck...
  15. Quaife. All clutch plate diff weren't available on stock. So to save time and i went for Quaife Sent from my SM-G850F using Tapatalk Brilliant. It's what I'm planning to do a bit later in the year. I'd love to get some detailed feedback from you on how you think it performs
  16. I'm not paying for other peoples mistakes. Socialist nutters.
  17. No you plum, me for cams and long tubes You're going further into madness.

  19. I wonder who'll be doing this at some point
  20. Yeah we have the same thing, I've no idea what the hell that person even does - sounds like another made up job.
  21. Look at the shopping list, get a calculator and get googling Quite honestly, couldnt be assed Im shopping for 240z parts So I spent the last 2 hours working it out for you. It'll be around £50000234509234.23 (incl lab)
