  1. I'm after some of the above with tyres if anybody is thinking of trading up. Fitment for a non lowered Z with Brembos.

    Will consider others tho.

     

    Edit: no longer needed thanks to buster. Spent way more than I wanted to lol but he's done me a deal ðŸºðŸ˜Ž

  2. Love how he couldn't resist taking a swipe at ricciardo/red bull in saying he's the first to beat them fair and square.

    He won due to merc dropping the ball on strategy. No doubt it would have been close but merc would have been 1-2 or 1-3. How is this different to ricciardo feeding off scraps last year?

    The guy just irritates me, so smug and never gracious. Look at Merc's reaction to it. Very sporting considering the circumstance, they could've easily said its because of this or that but they were actually happy for them and left it at that. Ultimately it wouldn't surprise me if merc were actually running lower engine settings to nullify the talks of "equalisation", there is no way a team makes up 1.5 secs a lap in a fortnight lol Bernie probably told them to make it interesting for ratings.

  3. That's down to misuse/neglect not age. If u think the clutch is going, get a new clutch, full service and alignment for the £1k you save yourself.

     

    +1 for wanting to see the ad lol. I saw an 06 gt in lovely condition today for a fiver short of £9k and I thought that was overpriced!!

  4. Daft question time.

     

    Should the boot struts open the boot unassisted at the press of the boot button? My struts hold the boot 95% of the time so I'm not bothered for replacing them really unless it's a noticeable improvement I.e the boot pops up on its own.

     

    Lol thanks guys

  5. Thanks for the heads up but il take my chances for now, it's just a stop gap before I go back to Greenlight. They weren't happy with the power hike from the mx5 to the 350z so one of the operators recomended sky for a year. Sky are over £100 cheaper than flux who were pretty cheap themselves..

  6. I can't honestly remember how many coats it got but yes there was a lot of prep and I really took my time with very light coats etc, the parts were off my car 8 days, it's not perfect by any means but you've got to look very closely to spot any flaws. It's not my first rodeo tho I'v had experience with spray cans before so fancy my chances of a decent finish on most projects, don't think I'd tackle a body panel tho. And thanks for all the comments 👠glad everyone seems to like it. I think it's really made the inside like a new car.

  7. Wanted or swap for slash cut titanium.

     

    I'm after a pair of the rolled chrome tips. I know it's a long shot but I'm not a slash cut type of guy and these came on the car when I bought. If somebody offers a swap I will offer cash their way as the left hand tip has suffered at the hands of a previous owner who has polished some of the blueing off by the looks of things.
