  1. I am so bored waiting for the car to come back now (wont be till Feb ) that i've just gone and bought more stuff. this is what happens when you have unspent petrol money added to the budget. I cant smell my Z anymore, its been that long
  2. NOT lowered? but, it looks just right thanks for those wheel specs, very useful for me.
  3. Check out page 2 of my before and after dyno runs during my remap. http://www.350z-uk.c...ey/page__st__20 23hp more, 24lb/ft more from (on the day) plenum, '06 airbox, ecu and sports cats. i got to be honest, i have had other remaps before but i didnt notice any difference in the drive after for the Z. other than being louder i didnt notice any difference in the pull at all. also my MPG has never recovered (See page 3 of that thread.) its 100 vs 1, i seem to be the only person with negative mpg after. at least to this degree. maybe im the fool. but, if your after solid proof in the way of numbers, the above thread will show you numbers. if you want to know ''how it feels'', then everyone will describe it differently in their own words.

  4. They do nothing People should definitely stop bidding on them I wont send you the forum link to a review by Zedmanalex, Ekonda and Greekman then who have had them fitted.... Search is your friend (which is why i corrected my earlier post - i was talking out my arse about a different product :lol )
  5. ** ignore my comment. these are somthing else.
  6. Front bumper is the Do-Luck, do you want to poke your nose under and have a quick look before i collect it to see if theres room for it?
  7. Yep. got spacers on. I dunno, i recon the Rays will handle the tasks for a few weeks until i decide in fact they will probably become a frequent feature during the winter for the winter tyres.
  8. im sure once i see the car with the kit fitted i will probably decide that a different set matches the lines better that what i have currently decided on. Once i get the car back, i will be throwing up a few pics for photoshop guys to impose a few designs. primarily, its the Vossen CVT thats top of my list. at the moment the only wheel that i have seen that i would part money for. im generally not a fan of.. well, pretty much every wheel design to be honest. So these are special but im not parting with any of the wheel-budget until i see the new kit
  9. Bodyshop oics. lots of filler required in lots of places. none of it really sat to well according to Taras. But, nearly ready for the spray (if he hasnt already started). pics are from a couple of emails this week, so they may be out of sequence on this page. but you get the idea.
  10. Hydrodippng stuff is awaiting delivery. Pics of that awesomeness to soon follow. or maybe i will wait now until its fitted, which shouldnt be too long because... : Been swapping emails and pics with RT-P too.... Saturday for collection i am told. i have lots of teaser pics to put up, with it covered in filler and the kit fitted awaiting spray. but,, its nearly 1:30, and i am up for work in 5hours, so.... :snack: :snack:
  11. Which ones you getting? i'll be ever so slightly jealous if you say CVTs !!
  12. Yea i spoke to Chris for a quote he hasnt got any offer on this set at the moment though. ive had a few quotes. all come in around £1700. without rubber.
  13. I got some side skirting from B&Q at a good price.
  14. Last Active, Yesterday 21:06 This thread was created, Yesterday 21:08 how did he pull that off?
  15. Anyone else heard back from Madhatter ?
  16. How much does it weigh please matey? per seat, with all the rails fitted. thanks Pritchard
  17. Not Manny Birdie ?? on the offchance... cant be that many ''Mannys' in IT surely. lol
  18. Brillo, pick 6 numbers. GO
  19. How much ?! I got excited until it said reserve not met. for £7k thats a car to jump on, for the SC alone.

  21. Advert reads ''tyres in excellent condition''... with no mention of the alloys condition, of which 2 are quite cleverly hidden. although the two shown look recently refurbed. If it were me i woul be cautious, and/or ask more questions and photots. espectially for £800. i dont think these are the OEM 350z wheels on the base model though, so probably off something else ? (someone confirm) which means you will need to ask him for the Offset too.
  22. I will tae the meguiers plz. pm on its way
  23. I got mine from Cougar Sports, quick delivery. You have a couple of choices too, Resonated and non-res. plus tip options Trader section: http://www.350z-uk.c...4-cougar-store/ **edit, wait im talking about the Cobra. oh well, Cougar probably does them. as do others
  24. Lol, yes i know what a mm is i was only talking about small measurements the whole time. anyway. once the wheels are on i'll see what i've got to work with for the suspension. to be honest theres nothing i love more than seeing a car sitting so low that its scraping the floor (at shows at least), but thats obviously no good to me at all. so, i might need to look ito air suspension when the time comes. we will find out soon enough
  25. I am absolutely positive that i have just worded this wrong from the start, or its been mis-read and now we are counter-arguing specifics. lol. so clean page. Using rear wheel as the example: Current size: 245/40/18 expected new size: 255/35/19 That change raises the car by 4mm off the ground. allowing me to lower the car back onto the wheels by 4mm without loss of clearance. Rolling radius change is -1.2% And the tyre profile is not ballooned. Or, 245/40/18, to 245/40/19 will raise the car by 12mm, allowing for a more substantial drop (and probably arch rolling). the former is my more likely option. *Just seen the email update while typing this about the 275/35/19 profile to 275/40/19 ... whaat? lol. i am on OEM wheels!
