  1. Not sure you saw much alcantara in the 70's, velour yes, alcantara no It was a wrap so self adhesive, no wrinkling but patience was required as if it folded back onto itself, that was it. Its pretty easy to get those panels out, 30 mins tops and i am sure the airbag would have no issue blowing off a bit of sticky wrap.
  2. Must have been a slow day in the ph office is all i can say
  3. Just read all the ph posts, obviously there are some bellend comments but also some intelligent responses. There is a link to a video the driver had already posted previously, i didnt want to watch so only echoing the comments, but it does seem the driver was "exuberant" to say the least and comments from in car such as, "this is a very angry car" and how flying off the edge would result in 100% death...... Rip in fellas, it probably could happen to any one of us if luck wasnt on our side.
  4. Word of caution guys, i was looking at the Ings lip kit on here, advertised as "vendor" Ings+1, they are not, their part numbers seem to be the same as Duraflex/Extreme Dimensions so tread carefully.
  5. The above leather is very impressive, seems a shame though to leave those massive slabs of plastic that face you though as you mention I alcantara wrapped them
  6. Good to see the weather didnt dampen the usual spirit at the shed. A big thank you boys and girls
  7. Good to see the weather didnt dampen the usual spirits at the shed A big thank you to the guys and girls
  8. My new 350 already has some on so these were taken off my old one.
  9. Just trying to find the mounting thingys, will pm you when i do.
  10. Wow, you must have the patience of a saint to want to stop every 150-200 miles for 30 minute recharge becareful of the hills and cold weather too, you might be stopping for 30 minutes every couple of hours or so
  11. DD and speeding seem to go hand in glove, whilst i agree that sort of driving on public roads is not a good idea, you could not label it any more dangerous driving than some of the idiots i see on the road doing under the speed limit and they will never be prosecuted in the same fashion.
  12. Brembo brakes and discs straight swap and same goes for uk cluster. Cant help on the model, there is some info on jdm model spec somewhere in here
  13. SSR Integral GT1's Rims Only 8" fronts 9" rears I used these as track wheels as they a light wheel, according to wheel weights list, half a kg heavier than respective Rays, but you get an extra half an inch on the rear to run a bigger tyre. Clear the Brembos without the need for spacers, unsure of offset but judging by the way they sit, i would imagine in the 30's. They have been powdercoated in a Anthracite/Shadow Chrome finish, one wheel has some flaking (pictured) on the rim. otherwise all in good condition as seen. £550 delivered
  14. Putting power to the ground is the limiting factor, ice or ev, you still face the same problem.
  15. I bought them 2nd from a forum member, atkins i think, from memory he mention 3000 miles i have put about a 1000 on.
  16. As above in good conditon, not sure there is much more to say £275 posted
  17. How come, i cant see any Tesla badging
  18. You didnt manage to get the weight difference between the brakes did you?
  19. Great bhp per tonne, take a look at the list linked, some proper machinery with that sort of figure Never thought about just a std intercooler rather than charge cooler?
  20. Probably more , as I have heavy wheels , heavy brakes and a heavy charger install Just got to weigh my zed with the above all fitted ....... Inc 3/4 tank of fuel , I was bang on 1600kg......which although being pretty heavy I'm pleased with considering what I've added . Only think I've taken out is the spare wheel . Interesting and good to know, i had my jdm weighed at 1450kg, that included a weighty sub box, no spare wheel also etc. Will get my supercharged one weighed when its on the road as a comparison.
  21. HI Keith, i will have a hunt, i am in Poole, Dorset.
  22. Seems like quite a big thing to make cars resemble (loosely speaking) other cars in Japan. Pit crew Mx5's ReAmemeyia Rx7's Sure there are others, immitation is the biggest form of flattery. Hell, even Porsche want all their cars to look like 911's
  23. Tooooo many tyre threads/questions and its always the same answer mostly, mpss, it should be a sticky, just buy mpss I have no objection to that being the common answer, great tyre as said, but i wonder how many people (apart from the obvious) have actually got any balance to their their answer, i,e what other premium brands have been tried to make the judgement.
  24. Yeah, saying its shocking and battling a return was so unhelpful, wouldnt be trying to return it if it fitted
