  1. Very nice upgrade everything is nice and black. Your kickplates are so clean too :)

     

    That has a lot to do with my OCD lol

     

    Thanks for the kind words everyone, I really am over the moon, no more leather envy :8

  2. Ever since picking up my roadster in August last year I have wanted a leather trim, the car was just too good to turn down for something that I knew I could get eventually, finally found a genuine roadster leather trim at a very reasonable price, took delivery today so took the afternoon off work to fit it-

     

    Before-

    After-

    Over the moon with it.

     

    Are the cloth trims worth anything, they are in pretty good condition, car only has 58k on it.

  3. I am running 19" Rota's with 275/35/19 rear and 245/40/19 front running tien springs, no issues at all over the standard setup, it does feel a little more firm but this helps to give a more planted feeling.

     

    For me the move to 19" wheels is an improvement not a compromise for an improved aesthetic effect.

     

    All IMHO.

  4. Fuel switching is just one of those things you need to drive around, the point of switching can be changed with a remap but the cost of that is a bit excessive IMHO

  5. It will be the fuel switching on and off, modern ECU's switch the injectors off when the throttle is closed when coming down the rev range, it switches back on at a given RPM, you can feel it do this, if you catch it at the point of switching it feels like a hesitation as the fuel switches on and off.

  6. Thanks guys, yeah, Milltek tail pipes just don't look right being silver inside, I got the spoiler from eBay- item number 221101124400

     

    Came painted (great colour match too) at the price they are selling them I thought it was worth a punt, you do get a £10 import tax bill on top of the selling price though.

     

    Still well worth it, there was another guy that bought one on here after seeing mine (black roadster) and he was very happy with his too.

  7. Took advantage of the nice weather to give the Z a good wash, Polish and wax, really happy with the results-

    I wasn't happy with the look of the tailpipes on my Milltek, didn't like the inside of the pipe being silver so got the high temp paint out, looks loads better now IMHO

  8. I have never seen another Z on the roads around Durham the whole time I have owed mine so can't really comment if other owners wave but I do get acknowledged by other performance car drivers regularly, especially big engine stuff like S4's and R32 golfs etc...
