Midlands Meet - Sunday 1st September
davey_83 replied to davey_83's topic in Local Meets Across The UK
It use to get busy real early as parking was at a premium, since then they've improved the set up ie x3 times as much so it fills up slower. Plus I think folks know they can arrive later in the morning, which works for everyone. -
Are you still using the stock fuel pump? If so fueling at top end may be at its limit.

Ello n welkom

No worries Cal ask away, no not mapped hence the O2 spacers. Been over 2 weeks with a fair amount of driving and no eml as yet, fingers crossed it'll remain so. Yeah soaked the wrapped and damp installed which allows for better fitment and less shards. Heat cycled the ceramic and so far still looks great. Also if anyone was interested, I used 15m of wrap to do the below

On the market for a 350z and the Milleage is confusing me *HELP*
davey_83 replied to UsmaanAyub's topic in 350Z General
Hi, alot of 350z aren't daily drivers so mileage for some can tot up real slow. MOT history online will validate mileage along with service history. 7k is a very nice budget and should land you a tidy 350z be it a low mileage DE or higher mileage HR. -

We've had a rogue Ford Focus ST @Andy_Muxlow at a Mids Meet before now, a IS F will be no issue -
Thank you Ben, the 350z does wear 19's well. In pictures the wheels look bigger than in real life somehow. I remember last year when I first put them on, they looked massive and over the next few days appeared smaller as I got use to the new look. '19's for Show, 18's for Go'

Cheers pal - Very nice and totally reversible too, crazy those haven't sold yet.

That's an unbelievably good price for repair and paint.

Been contemplating a colour change for my wheels but also really like the hyper silver finish. Had some surplus headlamp tint so thought what's the worst that could happen. Have no idea about longevity, however was keen not wrap over an edge and used heat to help seal the edges. Began to create a template using detailers masking tape and transfering this to card. Being translucent it took on the hyper silver gloss and shade shifting appearance, I can't even begin to describe the colour. Spokes did, but hhmmm looks unfinished. Proceeded to do the centre and found one of the kids snack bowl to be the perfect size Getting there but the inner rim seemed easy enough, so made a template for these too. My skill level wouldn't stretch to do the rest of the visible spokes sadly. New custom centre caps as these were blank previously. And the finished result half expecting bits to fly off the first time I take to the motorway.

That looks a nice job!!!

Cheers Andy, pretty chuffed with how it sounds, performs and looks now. The wheel and tyre combo for me is perfect. Not seen another Zed like it either which is good.

Cheers matey, it's was a good session and left at room temperature to cure for 3 days - not intentional as the weather has been rubbish recently to be swapping wheels and spacers over. Kiwami sealant doing its thing and hopefully provides a couple months of protection.

So as seen on FB, my 19' Varrstoen's are ready to go back on Gone from Falken FK452 255/35 & 275/35 to Continental Sport Contact 6 in 245/35 & 265/35. Small amount of stretch but to me that's no bad thing with big wheels and sidewalls on the CSC6 look unreal. Very motorsport with a clutter free design and BIG font for make, model and size. Even at slow speeds straight away the steering felt noticeably lighter and more direct. However compliant over bumps and doesn't tramline like the old 19's did. Hopefully at speeds these Conti's are quieter than the Falkens, which were very old. After the tyre swap out, the wheels were cleaned followed by hand polish and sealant. Applying dressing to brand new tyres, is there a more satisfying feeling?
