  1. Flip a coin. That kit look's cool but still a lot of money for a bumper, side skirts & rear. Although it is carbon fibre so pretty good really.
  2. That would be insane. Hhhhmmm, .....no really I can't. My Mrs would kill me.
  3. Seen this for sale Andy on eBay if it's of any interest. Link: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Scorpion-Exhaust-Nissan-Skyline-350GT-350Z-Y-Pipe-Cat-Back-Backbox-Performance-/161519585949?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item259b514a9d Scorpion back box, Y-pipe and mid pipe but the seller does say it's been modified by lengthening it a couple of inches to fit a 350GT (V35) model. If you're after just the back box & mid pipe then still seems like a reasonable deal.
  4. Sounds like a good plan and fyi, ...De-Cats are not MOT friendly at all.
  5. I like those. Lot going on with the carbon fibre inserts, branding/engraving but I think they should look pretty bad a** when fitted. If I was you though I wouldn't go for the stretched tyre look. I think they will look better with the fat tyre look imo.
  6. I think you're on a loser there ATTAK Z You're right ... GMB is a prolific poster and his posts are generally helpful and not spam ... so WELL DONE GARETH !!!
  7. No you don't Vlad, ...just think what Grundy had to do to win it! No fun blowing an engine I can tell you.
  8. Maybe they are trying to emulate those vans with the steps on the front so you can climb up to clean the windscreen properly? Look's just as good.
  9. I know that's what I thought. Makes sense. Don't worry I'm off to play Call of Duty soon on my PS3 so you can get ahead then.
  10. It's started already... I was only going to change my valve caps and now my cars supercharged.
  11. Really sorry to read that Rich. Very glad you got to say goodbye to her though. My deepest condolences for your family's loss.
  12. Just wait till "Zeditus" get's hold of you. Plenty of people join here saying they're not going to mod their Zeds & then before they know it they are pricing up body kits, alloys & all sorts!
  13. Look's great and interested to see how your plans turn out for you. One thing, if you're seriously thinking about going the FI route then I wouldn't bother getting your car remapped after fitting the Invidia & De-Cats especially if it's doubtful it will be all that long before you get the charger fitted. Only reason I say this is because obviously you'll need another UpRev done after fitting the charger so you could be throwing £300 at an UpRev that you may only have for a few months before you'll need to spend £400 on another UpRev for when you get the charger fitted. Fyi ~ I said £300 and £400 for the UpRev as it costs around £100 more for having an FI car done because it needs more time setting up/mapping.
  14. Love the Mini Kyle. Some great details.

    Gun in the sun

    Totally standard mate and thats the way i like it. Back in the 80`s i had a hillman imp with a wippy aerial that was about 6 foot so this is not exactly long... It did make it look like a remote controlled car especially with my wimbledon stockcars triangle flag on the top Lol. Maybe you should do that with the Zed aerial just for a laugh.
  16. ^^ What Kyle said seems right. My guesstimate would have been; Front: 245/45/18 Rear: 275/45/18 (although a 265 makes sense if it will help avoid rubbing) But possibly a 40 profile might be needed on the front/rear? as Kyle suggested. Need to be careful you get the rolling radius correct so you don't get any TC issues. Edit: Mistake.
  17. You may not be if I told you the deal I got on these Am I due any cash back then?! Seriously though glad if you got a good deal on the new gauges. I'm more than happy with the deal I got from you & the fact you delivered them so can't complain.
  18. Definitely agree with you. My view ~ the two people in the video, namely the male driver & female camera woman are to**ers of the highest order. Providing they where actually speeding then in my opinion the Police have every right to stop them & they (the driver/passenger) should be as apologetic & non confrontational as possible, ...which they weren't. Clearly out to stir up trouble & get some good footage for their Youtube channel. Pr*cks.
  19. Maybe he had MPSS but it was due to having the MPSS that caused the problem, ....so much grip he was able to go round corners at incredible G-force leading to oil surge & the oil pump not being able to pick up oil from the non baffled sump. Awesome looking award ~ good work Chris.
  20. Just wondering if maybe he meant ET15 but just didn't hit the key hard enough. Can't wait to see what you've gone for MC, ...I love surprises.
  21. New turbo look's cool Andy and sorry the old lady grassed you up to the Mrs but I guess her heart was in the right place.
  22. Welcome aboard. What engine was in the Capri then? 2.8 or anything special?
