  1. Rt performance do or did a universal splitter if that helps.
  2. I doubt there are any specific splitters for the 350 like this so you will have to drill to fit. Is it pricey, apr stuff normally is
  3. Turbonetics are actually pretty good, they carried a bad rep, but have got much better. A dealer on the rx7 forum was supplying kits and buyers were very happy
  4. What are the widths, offsets and weights of the wheels please.

    Powder coating

    No problem getting a wheel lip anodised as my post above but all depends on the quality of the metal to how well it will come out.
  6. I dont mind a cheeky offer as you never know, happy to just say, no chance, if you dont ask you dont get and all that, but, followed by the cash word like its some magical form of payment that you just cant refuse grinds my gears.
  7. One of my pet hates, the "cash" offer, I usually ask how they are hoping to pay, bottle tops or pogs? I am not a business, I dont have to pay vat, I dont offer credit
  8. Was having a scout around driftworks, jdm, japwest this last week, have wheels gone mental in price over the last few months?
  9. Try japwestmods too Lee
  10. Photos taken today for those that have requested, running winter wheels, excuse the wonky plate, only popped it on for the photo, usually run without.

    Powder coating

    Apologies, got that the wrong way round, the metal is chemically brightened before anodising, but all depends on the quality of the metal to how well it comes out. Only other answer is to lacquer over the top of the anodising but that will take away the effect of coloured metal (which is what i wanted as per the Works lips) rather than a clear coat

    i think so The lips are anodised, you wont get the same effect with powder imho. Yes i knew they were anodized but not having any previous experience of this or powder coating thought id ask for some opinions. Do you think it would be possible to get a similar effect? Not in my opinion, i tried to get my Weds lips anodised, the results were poor. You would need to get them highly polished, anodised and then chemically brightened to get that finish buddy and personally, just dont think anyone over here has the skills on either this or powdercoat

    I agree, they look great, but as always with the US, they push the boundaries of what you can do, try rocking up to a uk powder coater who knows nothing more than what colours are available on his ral chart and expecting that kind of finish they wouldnt even know where to start with a price And if someone does find someone, let me know

    Are you talking the lips Lee?
  16. Captive market, so they can charge what they want We also pay into a pot for the un insured drivers, seems all perfectly fair to me
  17. You can get your current cluster altered if your concerned, ecu wont give you mileage reading
  18. Mileage Is kept on the clusters
  19. Thanks MM, looking for original though
  20. Not sure if this should be in wanted or not as its a general question but does anyone do the above in the UK or if there is anyone parting out, let me know.
  21. 255 is absolute max on a 8.5, I am running a 9 with 255/25 and its square, no issues with tc system (235 front) Is It worth it, depends a lot on what you use the car for and whether your happy with the look of the Rays. Most on here upgrade to 19's and run a 275, 245, buts thats for looks not for performance, lack of traction.
  22. For the reasons in the article.
  23. One of the only comments i read on ph, lol, thought the same myself
  24. I must be missing something, but isn't this just the system we have now? Minimum requirement is 3rd party, anything more is optional. You are, government to provide 3rd party insurance as per thread above
