No Pete he was down our way. Yes Neil it was Gavins, he was one of the drop outs because he got rid of it. I am told it was the guys first RWD and I do know that it was 20" wheels on it and they were wrapped in budget tyres

My mate just mailed me at work, he has a white 350z import that a few of the scottish guys got to see. He swapped it with a guy down south for an evo as he needed the back seats. The guy he swapped cars with sent him this ..... Said he lost it in a bend.

Rays only came as standard with a GT for the facelift 06+

Had a set of league nocturne alloys on my first car which was a seat leon mk1. The alloy survived my terrible hand brake turn in the snow. Rear axel was bent and only slight dent in the alloy but not for a zed IMO

http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/75239-hensh65-girlfriends-nightmare/page__st__40#entry1134555 Front bumper was smoothed sprayed, bonnet top and bottom and front wings. Boot lid and chargespeed rear have been sprayed. The rest getting done a week in monday

Have a look at my build thread,, it will be updated later in the month being the finished article

Original bumper a shade off or replica that could still be a shade off if you dont get the boot and rear quarters done at the same time?? GLWTS

The episode the chap was talking about was on a jaguar xk8. Would be good if it became common practise.

That is a massive upgrade from your last car, hope you crushed that corsa so there is one less on the road but great choice Your car looks like its going the way of the stealth look with everything body colour so tints would make a massive difference

I was thinking that when I was reading this was it the old white VW ?

This will undoubtedly be unbearable to use day to day ,,,, a problem I would love to have in my life

I think thats what ill do mate ! Cheers

2 weeks to go and i will have had a full respray on my zed from a guy in motherwell. He is very cheap considering the quality of work he does full respray coming in at a few pounds under £1100 and thats with smoothing front and back and fitting some aftermarket parts

Rubbish photo just took it on the way out of my mates house but just to show there is quite a lot of clearance when you look at where the tyre is actually being touched

Its just under the arch and no more I think the suspension is just too soft. Need to drive slow which is rubbish

What is the options alex? I didnt want to upgrade my suspension because i have to get over spoed bumps at my house and cant go any lower. Do you just get stiffer springs or something ?

By the looks of the picture it is touching at 2 places. But i think its also touching the quarter panel as well with the line on the tyre wall.

You can see the fine black ring round the tyre, its only happened twice as the tyre was just brand new this morning

I think new springs lol i am a fat 11 stone

Its not the arch thats touching its actually the rear quarter arch, i will put a picture up

Hey Just got alloys from one of the members on here and got them fitted today. They are 9.5 at the back and run with 25mm spacers. I was on the motorway and any big hump the rear end drops and touches the side walls(the tyres are stretched at the back) Thing is there is a fair bit of room from the wheel arch to the tyre so it must be travelling at least 2 - 3" to touch. What would you recommend to stop this ?

I have seen at least 6 around our way over the last week, no point

Doesnt settle it but quite funny

Going to settle this debate once and for all....
