  1. Another left field choice, Lancia Delta Intergrale
  2. Certainly dont buy anything thats going to be tricky to sell either buddy, will p@ss you off having a car sat there that you need to sell to get into what you want.
  3. Its a very difficult choice if you cant get what you really want, sure something will grab your attention. Tvr t350?
  4. Think it would be too similar to your 350 imho and not as quick. Needs to be something thats different and your buying for the experience, nsx/caterham etc or something thats faster.
  5. Buy well on a nsx and you might make 5k good luck and if you manage to dig out those bits, please let me know.
  6. Sadly and only personally there is nothing in that budget I would want to part with the cash for. So going to go left field, Honda Nsx, be a great car to own, you wont loose any money and still suitably different to enjoy the scene
  7. Ah, but you can upgrade the rats nets with aftermarket silicon kits/valves etc To be fair, i had a boost issue on my first one, the specialist are so used to it they can identify issues quickly, £2.75 for a one way valve and an hours labour, all good as new. I would thoroughly recommend owning one, whilst the handling is good being lightweight and with 50/50 weight distribution it shares the same basic characteristics as most rwd cars, but the rotary engine for all its failings is something you will never experience in any other car (rx8 besides) and older stuff. I really do hope Mazda manage to find a solution and release an Rx9
  8. Some new models out soon apparently, any previews as to what to expect Chris? Keep your powder dry Buster San
  9. And then your 19mm out on diameter from oem, 225/45, 2.88%, so your tc will throw a wobbly. 245/35 is the right front tyre for 19's.
  10. Decats and a small ish back box (Cobra) will get you as close as your likely to get. Ignore the Cobra bit if your going custom, two small back boxes.

Ask Ebized for a recommendation if needed I nominate Jetpilot for next Question Sent from my D6503 using Tapatalk [/quote] Hang on, you cant get two questions and dip out, Fannys game, Fannys rules. How long does one have to be nominated before passing the buck.
  13. ^^ Its no secret I get new car ownership, especially new models, kudos etc, but, only when you can afford to be the one doing his nut on depreciation. You will loose 20% as soon as you drive of the forecourt and i cant believe anyone who earns £16k would want to give away a third of his wages in one sitting with the rest to promptly follow. Put the £350 a month away towards the deposit and by the time you have saved that up, you probably wont be too far away from owning one outright
  14. Humpy, what kind of a discount can you do me on water softeners, looking for 2 at present and yes that is my question Does Humpy nominate the next person Fanny?
  15. [quote name='Ekona' timestamp='1454064422' post='1579854'] MR2 trackpig is probably not going to see a track day again under my ownership, but I'm looking to book the 645 up for some track action soon. I quite fancy Snetterton I think, as I've never been there yet. And just turn up fella, you're welcome to a drive any time. [/quote] I will get some pics up of my mates one he is building for a tarmac rally series, you would probably appreciate it
  16. I believe there are spacers which try to fool the sensors, although i cannot say if they are effective, sorry.
  17. Nothing to really to discuss, but, always impressed by the amount of new owner threads or possible new owner, its good the 350z is a popular choice, the new owner thread over on the Rx7 forum often had tumbleweeds blowing through
  18. Is this just, ask Ekona time Do you like having your ego massaged?
  19. I would be very surprised if anyone was unhappy with F1's, no reason not to go for them if you cannot get mpss.
  20. Actually I've found the opposite. With 295s it's very difficult to go sideways! Maybe I should fit some bicycle wheels to the back? I dont seem to suffer with traction @ 400hp on a 275, you can get any car to go sideways, tyre size is immaterial Bet she handles a treat.....on the drive There is a reason car manufacturers just dont slap the widest tyres they can on a car, its called balance. There is so much more to consider, weight over the tyre, contact patch, geometry, front tyre sizes. You would probably get more traction from fitting a sticky 275. Certainly not a hater, just see no plus's to the minus's
  21. No still as is, running my winter/track wheels so nothing will happen with colour till the roads get better or they get sold. Yeah lips can be polished no problem
  22. I am afraid I go the other way, like the quad tips, but 295 is way over tyred, ride and handling will suffer.
  23. Polished or diamond cut, paint will always look like paint unless you can find someone doing the water chroming.
