Stutopia

Don't tell anyone, but it's because I'm getting married to Kimberley's ass and I won't allow it out the house.

Incredible, does nothing to save someone's life and try and dodge a stretch. Hopefully they'll put him in with the sisters.

I think the saturation is up a little on that particular photo! It was my first mod, so I got a bit excited.

That's VERY red!

 

I like it though

My trim is still OEM, I think it's the picture that makes it look better than real life. My gear surround is scratched to buggery, going to try plastidip as a cheap fix. If that fails, make a new plan. Black satin sounds really good. Thanks for the suggestion!

I like red.

If I ever summon up the minerals, I'll do the handbrake gaiter too!

I'm with elephant (admiral subsidiary I believe), £72 for non standard panel filter and scorpion exhaust. Really pleased for you guys ;-)

I'm switching to proper admiral now!

Glad to see the love for RBF 600, just ordered some from ZMANALEX and some braided lines too. I hear it's so good that when you brake you actually go back in time slightly.

As well as avoiding something nasty, I'm pretty relieved there was nothing close behind. Don't think they would've stopped in time.

I just nearly wiped out some kid. Passing a parked bus, so I slowed down just in case. He walked straight out from behind it, never even looked my way! He must have ice in his veins as he still never looked around, even after I skidded to a halt, with his back about 6 inches off my bonnet. Stopped so quick I never even got the clutch in! He just breezed on. Thanks Brembo and Bridgestone.

A car coming the other way pulled in and bollocked him! I think I bricked it more than he did! Lucky little bugger.

Didn't know whether to file this under brakes or tyres, so went general.

Nice idea, have to check the calendar, but I'm up for checking it out. It's a long way up, don't think I've been past Inverness, should be a decent mission!

I keep seeing cool roads in Scotland on TV, in the movies. Skyfall has a great shot of what I believe to be the A82 near Glencoe. I haven't had the opportunity to take the Zed for a proper stretch of her legs and I quite fancy heading north for a couple of days to soak it up. Any suggestions for roads or, even better, a route to take in some of the scenery and obviously enjoy the drive around? Ill go as far up as need be, before speaking Icelandic, to find some great stretches.

(I always wanted to do one of those)

PM sent

I think I've got one from when mine was upgraded. Ill go have a look and let you know.

Wasp T12 Speechtool, it's got twin MP3 mixing decks and a massive 5, cos that's the most common number. It's well weapon.

I already got mine from Japan, where's yours?

Quite a lot of people side load from photo bucket.

A JC WC?

What's that thing sticking out the bumper?

I think I went to school with that chick in the background on the left with a drink.

Lovin that obscure MB factiod!

 

SMD, enjoy those short skirts in Newcastle!

 

Skirts? Oh you mean the belts they wear just under the muffin top

 

Not recovered from my last night out there yet

 

Not used them yet, but they seem legit (as much as any website!). I wasn't sure about tyre choice, but if I can order 4x Michelin PSS for £700 then it seems like the only choice to me. Althought the price on the Falkens is decent too. I think with the amount of different threads on here I've read, they're both good tyres and neither will cause problems. Although I am a noob!

Not the current car, but why not

 

 

Great car but I think I love the photo even more!

Gutted for you mate. They should just be killed. No trial, no jury, straight to execution. I fear this every single night with the wastoids and dickheads round here. If you can't have something beautiful, damage something beautiful of someone else's. Mindless.

Is key proof paint the future?

Doesn't the immobiliser kick in if the car is left unlocked for a while as a little safety feature? I've seen other cars do that. Not sure the non-start is necessarily linked to the other issue with the alarm.

Welcome. She's a beauty, everyone is getting a blue except me!

How do these compare to perceived 'premium' brands like Michelin and Continental? I've just bought a new Zed running on LMGT4s, and have just winced slightly at the £280 a corner for most Michelins. I've got Bridgestones on my current (now previous I guess) Rays and have thought they're a bit weak, so don't know how to compare these to Michelin/Continental, which have always been my benchmark.

Try here mate

I was scared off the michelins by price, but looking at a few different tyres now and they seem good prices for all kinds of brands.
