ap isn't cheap but they are very good. if that pirce includes discs and pads thats bloody good. considering good discs can set you back easily 900 good pads are at least another 300 minimum, and 2nd hand stock zed brembo's go for 700, so your not for off 2k at that. so for an extra 300 to get ap's is a frickin deal of the century. spoon calipers just the front calipers for the front on the S are 12 ex discs and pads. problem these days is everyone wants something for nothing,

got till november to get as much work done as possible,

ahh the age old game of rota bashing, often played by those who payed premium for a wheel and don't like it when someone gets something that looks nice for half the price. often with stories of, " i was driving my car when my rota just fell apart" when translated properly it actually means, i was driving like a tit and clipped the curb at 100 miles an hour and my wheel broke. regardless of manufacturer if you hit a wheel hard enough it will break. i did love the rare rims "album of shame" for other manufactures made me chuckle many people run rotas as track wheels because they are cheap. if you break one it wont cost as much to replace. ... hope you get it all sorted; and don't listen to the scare mongering of others, everyone seems to know a friend of a friend who had rotas that broke, never actually met anyone who has suffered this issue.

the first 2 pages are almost all my photos just do it on a normal google search as well, suprising what it throws up

if you do you may well be "touched"

face palm fail

I like his links (apart from the duck/dog one ). I wouldnt normally look on his site as i've got nothing driving me there, but posting links here is almost like an RSS feed, so i get to see something i otherwise wouldnt. sorry guys thats just my version of subtlety over the shameless plugging i never was any good at subtle had just noticed them more and more on the forum when i had been browsing, maybe if you posted more on other threads etc it might not seem like these are your only posts. (trying to be helpful not sarcastic) its an open forum so people can post what they like, and its up to others what they click on. no hard feelings

no hostility, just asking

viewtopic.php?f=25&t=15900&hilit=ITB%27s heres one, cant find the one i started

if your going the custom build jenvey route and your mate knows what he's doing then you'll save a lot. have a search on here for ITB's might have to use the full term not the abbreviated version. was osme talk about it a while back as i looked into it.

do you post these on the site because they are interesting or because you get paid by the advertisers on your site the more visits you get?

think some of the yanks have dabbled with ITB's very difficult on the zed as its drive by wire. and very expensive. not very straight forward either

i have a silver OEM lip spoiler in my loft as well

if you make your ideal muscle tone, you get a free half naked man?????? isn't that a little ghey????

check out the varston or rare rims links on the site, fairly sure that these are the rare rim gtr wheel. but varston do something similiar.

sounds like the start of a loving bromance, does attak have a man crush?

actually i think it needs to be satin black as thats what the grille is

both are xenon, but the post 06 is bi-xenon, both use a HID type bulb as both require a ballast to run them.

306 is a good little car, i had the 306 GTi6 and it was an awesome beast, the diesel isn't a bad motor and will get you some good MPG.

i've got an 02 model so pre face lift but the lights are still good, but looks to be a single light unit, so my guess is its bi xenon as well my zed was a pre facelift as well so had the old setup, i tried swapping the bulbs out to a higher k rating, think it was 6500k made the light alot more white (had the faintest of a blue tinge to it) but i never found the light dispersion on the zed brilliant, they worked; but i always noticed when travellign next to someone in the dark on a dual carriage way that their light pattern would go further that mine. always wished i had the facelift bixenons on my zed, they did look so much nicer as well. thanks everyone for the help, its answered alot of questions and put the terminology right in my head

its a direct bolt on, no work needed,

I take it your car has normal bulbs and you want a HID kit? no mine has projectors, just been really impressed with the improvement over my old car, and was wondering partly why, i knew what they were, but then it got me thinking about what all the different terms meant, i'm a bit more clued up now. also come across some new terms like bi xenon etc. my understanding so far is that the facelift lights use 1 bulb and projector unit per side of the car, but have a shade/shutter that drops out of the way to give full beam which is apparently bi-xenon. the pre facelifts don't have a moveable shutter so in order to give you high beam they have the dipped and high beam as 2 different lights with 2 different bulbs per side. the HID part is the bulb they come in differnt shades from a very blue light to a very white light depending on the k value of the bulb. thats what i've learnt so far anyway.

Thanks so far for the information, i have found this all very interesting i didn't know the difference between bulbs etc and the delivery systems.
