  1. Sure I'll send you some images when it comes in later. Or have a look at my website www.wesellfloors.co.uk ðŸ‘
  2. So today I took my lovely red Zed for a trip down the m4 to Horsham Developments for a bit of up-revage. Read loads of reviews on this forum so I knew what to kind of expect. Also no point driving for 1hr30 just for the up rev I thought so I also got Jez to put on a plenum spacer while they were at it..... And yep.... No point just doing the spacer I thought so I got in touch with Mopedmark and he managed to get me a polished plenum delivered to Jez this morning so it was ready to be fitted this afternoon. Cheers Mark. Also in the box was a bonnet catch but that was for me to fit later. They also took a little look under the car to see what was causing it to handle poorly...... Result = both banana arms need replacement (bye bye leather seats for another few months). Anyway! It started out with 263hp and ended up with 281hp. I've got to say I was pleasantly surprised on the figures.... Even with it being one of the hottest days of the year. Oh and the engine now looks as it should IMO As for the feel of the car on the drive back home. It feels a lot lot more racey that's for sure. And far more impressive through the revs. I'm well chuffed with the result. I've got to say that I'm very impressed with Horsham too. So much so that the zed will be going back there for the banana arms to be done and maybe some decats once I can afford it lol (if anyone wants to buy 100sqm dark oak flooring off me that will be sooner rather than later 😉) All in all one happy Chris today (and that's what matters).... And one empty wallet (meh)
  3. With a full respray (to get rid of some rust) and new sign writing it's going to be over £2500. Undecided wether to go through insurance yet. The problem being I have a policy that covers anyone over 25 to drive it. Took me 5 years ncb to get that. OR I just leave it as it is..... It still works..... Just leaves a not to stellar image of my company I suppose
  4. Yep, had a look at those.... Best price so far £890 😔
  5. So last night while fast asleep I was woken by the sound of screeching tyres and metal on metal. Naturally I darted outside only to find my T5 van had it's passanger side taken by a car that had just driven off 😭. The neighbour saw the car but didn't get the reg😔. I drove around for a bit but couldn't find the culprit tho. Anyway after a trip to the bodyshop this morning it looks like it needs both a passanger door and a new sliding door. Anyone know any good breaking companies that might have these.... Been on the t5 forum but as you lot are such a helpful bunch I thought I'd ask here as well. Needless to say the leather seats for the zed are on the back burner ..... Again *could of been worse the zed could have been parked where the van was
  6. I'm pretty sure last time I looked Renault supplied the last few world champ f1 engines.
  7. Why go through the trouble of explaining what a spitter and a diffuser is..... You should of just told them "a body kit" and left it as that. Less is more when explaining things to people who don't have a clue. +1 for admiral tho 👠(or whatever guise they are in)
  8. I think this forum alone is testiment to the 350z being a future classic
  9. It's specialised flooring company. Hardwoods laminates stone marble etc. it started of as this Now it's this
  10. Started my own business 5 years ago when I was 29... Left a well paid job too.... worked seven days a week and really struggled financially during the first 3 years..... But thankfully it's paid off... I absolutly love what I do and wouldn't have it any other way.... Money's not too bad now either😉
  11. Don't know if this might help you but you never know. http://www.bhma.co.uk/signs-1/3d-letters-for-signs/moulded-acrylic-letters-p-688.html Basically they cut letters out of acrylic or metal etc for stand out letters and signs. They can basically cut any design you require..... Not to sure they could do it for £20 each tho. But well worth taking a look even if you use chrome letters with a vinyl inlay.
  12. Fair enough and good on you..... I really think yours is beautiful (always wanted a gt4 in yellow). GLWTS none of those points would put me off buying it. Shame I've already got a zed otherwise I'd be there ripping your arm off for this car lol
  13. That is lovely. ðŸ‘why such a low asking price tho?
  14. Maybe a bit premature to put mine up but hey why not. Ever since it's had a 2 day colour correction process on it I can't help to show it off I've owned my imported car for a year now and even though it came with some really nice mods I'm enjoying adding my own twist to it. Mods when purchased: Body kit fitted by rs worxs Kakimoto exhaust Stillen induction kit Ultra light alloys made by prodrive Liquid art badges Mods added by me Dipped interior plastics from AquaGraphix Nismo gear knob Aluminium sill plates Colour correction by Ti22 Anodised cooling plate Led kit New stubby 2 buckets and enough detailing product to sink a battleship Maintenance parts Pads and discs all round Track rod ends and banana arms Hunter four wheel alignment Repair to front spitter and stone chipped front New yellow top battery Upcoming mods within the next 2 months: Up rev at Horsham c/w plenum spacer and polished plenum Custom leather seats (although something always comes up before I get to these)
  15. The guy I bought my zed from said to me you won't believe how many people stare at the car..... I didn't believe him at the time but Christ he was right..... Even the wife said that she drove i she couldn't believe how many people take notice of it. The first day I bought mine it was parked outside my brothers and a little boy of about 8 walked passed and said to his dad"wow dad look at that Ferrari" Now I'm quite aware that it's not a Ferrari and I'll probably never own a Ferrari ..... But hearing that really made me smile.
  16. Why can't I see a link? I'm really intrigued now lol
  17. If your thinking about taking them out I might be interested in buying them off you
  18. I love this (and your bonnet catch) and seriously thinking about it..... But I've got absolutely no confidence with spanners and messing with the engine scares the crap out of me.... How hard is it to do?
  19. Oooo been thinking of doing my engine cover similar to this colour.... Very nice
  20. Top effort there. Been thinking about doing mine for a while... Look out for the inspired by GM thread soon
  21. I tried one of these and all the clay ended up separating from the MIT and on to the bodywork of the wife's car...... Took me the whole day to polish it off. Probably my fault or for using a qd with it but I wasn't impressed with this at all. I'll stick to the clay bar I think
  22. I saw a convertible one in a nissan showroom when they were first on sale and wanted one ever since........ I now feel like that about the gtr..... Only 10 more years to go lol
  23. My dipped interior..... No more tatty scratched plastics
  24. I've got khumos all round on mine and they are perfectly fine. Although if the wife's touareg didn't need 4 tyres at the same time as well I would of put some mpss on just to see what all the fuss is about. ** on a side note I've never had a car that eats tyres the way a touareg does so no mpss for me in the future either lol **
  25. I really really really wanted white!! ....... Until I saw my red lol
