Life would be a lot easier.....if I could just go pinch a V8 engine sat at the Zed shed

I just think it's extra hassle. If it was me selling wheels I'd tell you all to do one and get your own tyres This is probably why I do not sell wheels.

There is a risk with Tyre packages though, mainly down to when the tyres get fitted and accidental damage happens to the wheel, it then comes out of Tarmacs pocket :/ And as GM says, tyre brands, a lot of fussy people out there, who will want a certain brand, then a certain size and some will want stretch, and not every tyre shop will but stretched tyres on.

Okay, so I feel sad not being able to update this But just for those that don't know what happened, and that don't know whats coming .... So at the start of September, I went to Trax with some awesome people! Surrounded by awesome cars (Except the stupid KA opposite us) So then came my 1st track session of the day, was enjoyable but not amazing this year...Wasn't the full circuit, too many cars on the track who looked to be there first time ever...along with Drifters going out just before us, which left lots of crap all over the track. Video of my first session ^^ Probably the best lap is the last at around 5:30-6mins. So anyway, all is going well until my 2nd session (Still waiting that video from Matt!) Plain and simple, after about 3/4 laps the engine blew up. Now we haven't inspected yet, but the only reason I can see this happening is Oil Starvation - Cornering too hard and oil just sloshed to one side of the car. Although it shouldn't of due to me doing all my usual checks the day before (Checking levels, topping up fluids etc) But she was well and truly knackered. This is where she got dumped off the track Funnily enough, she got so much attention sat there Then came the Tow truck, scariest thing of my life And then another Tow Truck But I got her home in the end. So what am I going to do next? Well I weighed up all my options, initial thought - V8 Time, but after looking into it, it's just too damn expensive. Too many people seem to think you can just dump a V8 into the car and it's good to go any thing but that simple! I then looked at Forging a doner engine, still that going to set me back about £7/8k and that's not even with a FI. Soooo the plan is to get another DE engine and add a few bits.. Item number 1 - http://www.tarmacsportz.co.uk/GB/350z_STILLEN_Headers/350Z-350ZSHEAD.aspx Stillen Headers (this brand may change, still researching) Item Number 2 - Stage 2 Comp Clutch Item Number 3 - Lightened Flywheel Figured while the engine is out, may as well upgrade the awkward bits Aim to have this back on the road ready for next season. So before March 2015. Thanks for reading

Hmmm, it's that time, I'm guessing we're due a 'What tyre should I get' thread next. If you have to think about fuel costs before buying the car, the car is not for you. Just FYI I did a 50 mile commute each day in my Zed - With Weekends and events etc costing me £400-£600 a month.

Not going to lie, always wanted to do it after seeing the film

They all do the same thing....just different branding.

Would over complicate it - How many people know there VIN off the top of their head? The only most common issue is people not understanding offsets.

Boom, I'm ready to be carried!

Just the SoO LFR Raid. Gotta do it again tonight

One thing to remember - whats the most common question on this forum.....'Will these fit....' so maybe some way to counter that problem - I.e. If you could get examples of each wheel on a Zed with specs - i.e. 20mm Spacer, x*Camber, Rolled Arches. I know it's a bit OTT but I think it'd be a good sales tactic considering people spend days waiting to find out if the wheels they want will fit before they purchase, least this way they can just simply see it in the details and click buy

Mouthwash is your man for this job So much hate for companies selling wheels wrong I guess price Per wheel, Off Sets, Width, if they clear brembos or not

Rofl We spent so long on the last 2 bosses, group was so fail! I was so tired.

Bleugh was on it pretty much all night Whilst Mouthwash kept breaking his account!

Hmmm, I feel like the idea is good, but I don't think it'd be great for what you want. For example, windows 7 introduced snap panels for people to have two things displayed at once (More easily) which was cool...but then we just got duel monitors which made it better I feel you may be squinting a lot with 4 things on screen

urgh I thought Banzai were better than Fast Car, and didn't just post car which are slammed with wheels...

You will all come crawling back My excuse....no car

Don't forget the blue wheels! Nah they're covered in the 'Jeremy Kyle Special'

Faction? Realm?

HOLY ****!!!!! DAN HAD A STRIPE?!?!?!?!? AND A SUN STRIP!?!?! IS THAT REALLY DANS CAR?!??!?! AND STICKERS!!!!

Also....No one has mentioned the obvious - this worked

Hmmmmm.....

So can I call you Jayden Smith now?
