My bad! I only scanned through the original post and assumed it was like the other event threads (add your name, then add 'PAID' once the ticket was purchased). I'll make sure i read the post properly next time! My apologies for all the confusion

I haven't got a ticket, just reserved a spot on the list posted earlier in this thread. @StormtrooperZ is more than welcome to take my place, but will obviously need to purchase his own ticket.

They're Aodhan DS02's that i had imported from America via Royal Speed Shop and then powder coated in a Ford Rock Grey. Specs are 19 x 9.5 et15 for the front and then 19 x 11 et22 for the rear with a 25mm spacer on the rear. There's a bit more info in my project thread here.

Exactly that mate. I have no issue with them normally and 9 times out of 10 they're really nice and just pull me over to check my insurance, ask about the car and my job before sending me on my way. Just a bit infuriating as i seem to be one of the only idiots that actually taxes my car, declares modifications etc. and yet I'm the one that ends up with all the grief.

Suprisingly the tyre wear isn't too awful now it's had another alignment Saying that, I'm already on my second set of tyres on the Kiwami's and I've only had them since January hahaha Thankfully the Delinte's are dead cheap in this size

@mattross1313 Cheers mate! A friend of mine fitted it to his car previously and it didn't last that long tbh. I don't drive the car that much anymore as I don't use it to commute to work so If I can get 3 or 4 months out of them then I'll be happy!

Nothing hugely exciting but I fitted a rubber skirt/lip to the sideskirts the other day. Suprisingly doesn't look completely awful (imo) considering the price. Won't be permanent as I still plan on making a proper lip kit for the front, side and rear of the car. But it'll do for now! Might finally get round to giving the car a good polish over the coming weeks seeing as it won't be going anywhere anytime soon!

I cut around the dragon with a CNC water jet cutter while I was bored a year or so ago Kept it ever since.

A little bit closer to what I'd consider to be an acceptable ride height 15mm of ground clearance is all you need anyway Here's a pound coin next to it for reference

Yeah it wasn't the best of days The plate is a bit annoying as it's still perfectly readable. Not tinted or a non standard size or anything like that, just the space moved slightly... But at the end of the day, it still doesn't conform so that's fair enough. Revoking my MOT for the sake of a sunstrip that I offered to peel off on the spot is a **** take imo. At the least he could of offered for me to go away and remove it and visit him at the station within the next week or whatever. Now I'm stuck without a car, a bunch of fines and I now have the hassle of waiting for new plates to arrive, booking an MOT and then taking the certificate to the station It passed its MOT in the exact state the car is in currently. And a proper MOT at that from a local garage, not one of those chuck your mate £60 and he'll pass anything type of deals! To top it all of as well, he followed me from the M4/M5 interchange all the way down the A38, into and around Aztec West and didn't once attempt to pull me over (the business park was basically empty and the roads are wide so no reason not to pull me over somewhere). Instead he decided to tailgate me through a security barrier into my work place before stopping me IN THE WORK CAR PARK! Where all my managers could peer out from the 2nd and 3rd floor and see the police car and myself! The director of Japanese business was in office that day as well as i spotted him peering out from the top floor at me while on the phone. Thankfully my work are fairly understanding, but i could've lost my job for something like that! Also, I'm fairly certain the police aren't allowed to enter private property without permission or a warrant - especially private property that deals with highly classified information!

Can't make this one now guys! Federales pulled me over this morning and have revoked my MOT and thrown a bunch of fines my way so doubt the car will be back on the road before then! All this for a spaced number plate and a sunstrip

Tell me about it. Ever since i watched this video a year or so ago I've been obsessed with 326Power. Desperately want their Manriki wing!

Most likely not to most people's (if anyone's) taste but wow every time i see this car it makes me desperately want a 350! 350's are simply stunning with a widebody kit. It follows the stock lines so perfectly! Also, probably the coolest 370 to ever grace the internet

I'd also be interested to know how much something like this costs. Always wanted to get some decent shots of mine once i finish the aesthetics at the end of the year!

Looks spot on mate Those mirror rain guards are a bargain at £3 as well!

Hahaha They've been like it since i purchased the car. I've had them held on with metal cable ties for the last 6 months

I cut mine off the other day as the rust had started to eat one side up. They make absolutely 0 difference from what i can tell

Looks awesome mate! Loving the Anthracite and the DRL blanks

I'd give my left leg for a black MK1 Just a shame that they basically don't exist I've only ever seen one for sale and it was around the £20k mark and had 60k miles. I'm certainly not wealthy enough for that! £15k was a push

@Cheshiregirl Isn't that the standard GT wing? Can't tell from the photos... If it's a duckbill wing your after then it may be worth contacting Piotr Grzelak on Facebook. He was the guy that made the one fitted to my car! Further info here:

It's not too bad to be honest. I don't drive the car during rush hour anymore and I always detour if I know the roads are bumpy. My commute used to be about 5 miles and there was only 1 spot where I actually had to slow down. I do have to be extremely specific with the roads I choose to go down though! Occasionally. If it's a smallish cats eye on the motorway and the road is smooth then I'll be okay. If its a larger one or the lanes are a bit bumpy then I probably will. I change lanes quite fast though so I tend to skip between the gaps

Not personally a huge fan of air ride. Whenever you see a rolling shot of a car on air ride they're always jacked up quite high with wheels poking out the arches quite a lot I understand why people have it - much more practical, lower for shows etc. Just not my cup of tea personally I do like the idea of air cups though. That way I can retain the 'static' lowness of my car but I can at least raise it 2 inches to get over things like bumps and enter slightly raised drives. Being this low without it is stupid really, but weirdly fun at the same time

Bit of a thread revival but figured some people may potentially be interested in the future. You can convert 370z BC's with a separate spring and shock to true coilovers by purchasing 2 spring perches and 2 locking collars from BC direct. Then just source yourself a 62/63mm coil spring.

@Bry Cheers mate! It'd make perfect sense for me to follow suit and raise mine up as well to be honest. I just can't bring myself to do it Thankfully the car is no longer a daily so it only gets used maybe once or twice a week. Sure saves me the stress of trying to commute in a car that struggles with basically completely flat roads

A bit lower, a bit more camber. blah blah blah Same story, different week!
