it was genius

front does most of the braking anyway, no issue with leaving the rears for now.

no need for new brakes for now, just clean the bell housings on the discs and paint them. personally the easiest way to fix the overall look would be to change the wheels to ones that aren't so open and a 2nd hand set of brembo's. I was kinda hoping you guys wouldnt say to change the wheels, as I do really like them!! lol Would you not even reccommend buying new larger discs (just standard ones)?? As I do agree that the discs look a bit small. Cheers if you like the wheels then i'd save up for a big brake kit not as cazy a price as you'd think. look at D2 or k sport

in the UK they did a series called coupling, well worth a watch, its like the british version of friends. but way funnier

does the lady on the motorbike do house calls?

You can see why a brembo upgrade is quite popular thats for sure ! i think even brembo's would look lost in there, those wheels need a BBK

looks interesting, might have a play with one for the V8

best thing to do is try them and see if you like them, if you like them, visit your MOT friend and see what they say. if they say no. you could still keep them just swap over for the MOT.

Japanparts is usally a good source for all things japanese

thats hexis personally i prefer to wrap with hexis over 3M their carbon is a better looking finish than 3M

I never showed you the bill for the 911 exhausts, did I? Makes that seem cheap Go look up the price of the Tubistyle Veyron exhausts, will make you feel a whole lot better i did see the price of the acropovic exhausts for the porsche weren't they like £9k or something silly.

lol yes the coil packs are all firing on all 8 cylinders and i replaced the leaking cam cover gaskets before christmas. still have other stuff to fix just fancied treating the car to something other than replacement parts as for your little MX5 if its an import then you don't need cats and de cat away. it is after all a track car. sadly the jag needs them so will be having sport cats. to give you guys an idea of costs for XKR exhausts, you lot like the milltek setup and they do them for the XKR its just over £1000 for un resonated and just under £1200 for a resonated version, and thats just the cat back system. the hi flow cats are an additional £1200 so well over £2000 without even fitting it. if you go down the arden route, and there stuff is very good but the cat back alone is £3300 before fitting.

possibly eBay for a small roll, i;d pick hexis over 3M from experience

my money is on 20's

as far as i'm aware the only road legal method of tinting lights is to use something called a fly eye's kit. as its a perforated film it doesn;t obscure all the light. and is the only MOT legal tinting method i know of.

Good job glad the left over bit i had was big enough

don't mind them, but i'd be interested to see if they would still pass an MOT with them on.

true duals with X pipes in are still "true" duals the x pipe just allows both banks to scavange gases from each other and balance the engine. even ones without often have H pipes in them to allow both banks to balance. this makes a big difference and can help maintain torque instead of losing it. as for what to go for, have a chat with Tarmac or go visit his website at Tarmacsports i'd go high flow over de cats, de cats will allow more power but will add a rasp to the exhaust note (its personal choice, some like it, but i find it a little de-valuing on the Zed) for about £1k you should be able to get a nice setup.

what wheels are they and how big are they? they make the disc and caliper look lost. i think its the wheels that make the disc hat look bad as its so easy to see. as said above, wire brush and hammerite are your friend mine need a similiar treatment so your not on your own.

i might be able to send you a "trial" version

doesn't need them as the car won;t have 550 bhp

This is the 2nd shine bumper on this forum I've heard that's had issues. Contact the seller they should be able to help you out.
