  1. Your not looking hard enough buddy. Try Instagram, it's littered with Louvres/spoiler combos.

    Just search for Zakustech or Zociety

     

    Personally I'm going for the Blitz replica. Prefer subtle and I don't want a bgw ruining the view ðŸ‘

  2. Playing the new Division dlc right now. Impressed so far with the Underground expansion. Drops are much better as are the rewards in general. Currently I'd say your better off in the underground than the dz, it's all high end / gear-sets here and I've already replaced all my weapons. I could never do that in 1-2 hours farming 'troll-land' DZ

  3. The reason people go for the GC fabrications harness bar is because it's braced within the floor of the car. How come you haven't put the Tegiwa stabiliser bars on? Probably not too safe

    But it's a 'harness bar' with no harness stabilisers? That's not safe at all, especially if you buy it with the intention to use a harness.

     

    My bar didn't come with the stabilisers unfortunately, I'm trying to source some. Anyone know anywhere?

  4. Looks pretty good, ...one thing though I'd try to get a strap for your fire extinguisher.

     

    I'm sure it's held in tightly by the cage yes but if you were to have an accident the last thing you want is to be hit in the head by a flying 500gram-1kg missile. It's up to you obviously but I would just for safety.

     

    You can buy them from eBay, Demon Tweeks etc depending on the size of your fire extinguisher but you could also make one yourself cheaply enough from say some tough velcro strapping as you're not needing it to be FIA approved. ;)

    As long as it goes all the way around the extinguisher & under the cage it would do the job.

    :thumbs:

     

    Good point, thanks! I think I may put it back under the passenger seat where it originally was, hidden and easier to access. Leaves the bar looking tidy then

  5. As promised,

    My new OnePlus 3 arrived last week – it's absolutely brilliant.

    Shame I can’t use its camera to take pictures of itself

     

     

    What's changed since…

     

    At some point I picked up a new Kode gearstick

    Old EPR one:

    New:

    Ditched my faded alcantra gaiters and replaced them with some fresh leather

    :)

    Speedo came out to be dismantled after gathering more paint and primer

    20150810_201211.jpg

     

     

    The end result was the speedo top being done and the internal rings which I didn’t plan on doing but had primer and paint left

    End result :)

    Adrian then popped up with the latest D1 throttle controller.

     

    Installed this nicely where I can quickly access it

    :wiggle:

     

     

    IMG_20160621_193516.jpg

     

     

    Car then went into Abbey for a pop and bang map

    Can’t really give you a picture of that but it sounds immense and flames from both tail ends on a good run in have been confirmed

    :ninja:

     

     

    Rear was also resprayed along the way with some Nismo spats molded on as glue/adhesive wasn’t cutting it.

     

    IMG_20160621_192951.jpg

     

     

    5mm rear spacer shims were also installed for just a little more wideness on the rear.

    Also lowered a tad more and stiffened the rear up a few clicks.

    The daily driver also received it's branding :lol:

    Door handles now also gloss black

    Tegiwa harness bar – Much prefer the polished stainless steel look over the matte finish on the GC fab ones most people go for.

     

    One thing I noticed was this actually has proper harness stabilizers welded on whereas the GC Fab ones doesn’t?

    :huh:

    Anyway, it popped up on here so I jumped on that straight away.

    Win at BHP this this year with the team :D Best Car Club

    Roughly as it stands with pics taken at different points

    Also have Silvatech front indicator bulbs but these haven't been fitted yet...

     

     

    Also found this in the garage at the weekend too – came with my Motordyne plenum spacer so I'll get round to fitting this at some point

    :thumbs:

    Well there you go, bits and bobs here and there, hope you guys like it :)

  6. Thought you'd sold up blaqkaudio!. :scare::shrug:

     

    Still got the Zed & cracking on with the mods then? :)

     

    Yeah still got it. The missus and I are trying hard to get our first place together so new cars are off the agenda for the immediate future :lol:

     

    Sometimes I've looked at getting something with the money I'd get for the Zed but I can't find anything as fun that ticks as many boxes.

    Plus I have a daily so it's only driven at the weekends, even then it's not every weekend.

     

    Replacing my potato temp phone in a few days so I'll actually have a decent camera, plenty of pics to come :thumbs:

  7. Abbey mapped the pops and bangs onto my car earlier in the year, not sure if I was the first to have it done?

     

    Needless to say on the test run with Mark it sounded awesome feathering the throttle and I can recently confirm after a good run in flame spitting from both tailends :lol:

    I have an inside cabin dashcam, I'll see if the footage picks up the sound

  8. My old man many many years ago had one, was the md at Vauxhall before they went tits up, co-owns Wortec who specialize in tuning them.

    Was unreal when s/c tuned. The Monaro we had before the VXR8 was far more wild and raw, not as refined.

     

    Check this video out I did, covers his car as a first Wortec edition, our mates VXR8 and the custom s/c VXR Maloo (almost 9 years ago!)

     

    many sexual V8 noises :thumbs:

  9. Watched a few youtube walk throughs yesterday and they mentioned the above weapon and again advised need the stability sorted out but once done it is one of the most recommended weapons.

     

    Indeed it is, I will probably keep this now as my primary assault rifle.

     

    The new patch today has also majorly improved things which I'll be checking out tonight, take a look:

     

    http://tomclancy-the...cm:148-76770-32

     

    Major improvements to the DZ and loot dropping. I'd prefer not to waste a Dark Zone key opening a chest to only get pointless Blue loot :lol:

  10. Crafted the high-end Liberator last night :thumbs:

     

    Nothing has come close to my LVOA-S but this tops it, worth spending your phoenix credits on.

    Beware you need major 'Horizontal Stability' mods to get it controllable. Initially you may regret the buy because in standard form the recoil is atrocious :lol:

  11. Had a bit of a nightmare day however I did find myself thinking about how to play the divisions d looking forward to getting home to get a mission or two in.

     

    Been quite a while since I've felt like that about a game :)

     

    Have to agree, I don't play games often, but I'm completely addicted to this.

     

    Level 20 now, strong enough to dabble in the 'Dark Zone' with friends however getting extracted with rare loot is another matter :lol:

  12. Is it as open world as everyone states?

     

    Yeah once its loaded it all entirely open world, no additional loads and the city is huge.

     

    One thing I realised is you cannot actually pause the game, only check your map or your inventory, the game still continues blurred in the background whilst you access this.

    This means if you want to step away for a bit and your just standing in the street or mid-mission you cannot just pause the game, the AI will simply ambush you, game over.

    That said you can just fast travel to a safe house and you are literally 'safe' to leave the character standing there.

  13. Chaps,

     

    What would you recommend for a car lowered on coilovers?

     

    My oem rear drop links need replacing and I figured the non-adjustable uprated oem ones are not suitable?

     

    People recommend the Circuit Sports from Concept Z in the US. Anything I can buy in the UK?
