  1. its why i use the typhoon system from K&N, closest simulation to a stock air box. sealed box, with an out of the engine bay air feed Its hardly sealed Rich! There are some wacking holes in the bottom! i filled mine
  2. 1. rtbiscuit - motorised 2. fakeindian - motorised 3. Ian - motorised 4. bhavin85 - motorised 5. Andy - motorised i succumbed to peer pressure i spoke to him about 2 months ago on email, but didn't get round to ringing. is $25 alot for shipping?
  3. the nismo sticks out slightly at the front, same as about an add on lip i would think, it leans back slightly once over, i'm going to have to get under the zed to measure up before i waste anyones time with ringing and setting prices up etc. i think its doable. but i need to check
  4. nice idea, i just find it easy to lob a tool box in the back :shug:

  6. where's the group buy for this - I've been looking at these on us forums so would be interested only talk at the minute, but the link is here viewtopic.php?f=26&t=29752&start=45 bottom of page 4, goes on too page 5. as there seems to be interest i'll get the mods to split it off that thread and start a new GB thread
  7. no they have shrunk. but the small hand syndrome might help, as everything looks bigger in small hands, thats why lots of blojes like japanese girlfriends
  8. i think becuase the bumper has been smoothed, and the grille changed, the bonnet highlights the more rounded effect of it all. i think the scoop and lip will improve this. also with no number plate, it emphasises this whole effect. number plate wise, why not get in on the retractable group buy numberplate. means you can have the clean front look for shows etc while still staying legal
  9. whats your location?
  10. didn't know that, thanks for the heads up, i'd go with the ferodo DS2500's then
  11. being brought in too line wit europe has meant we have lost loads of names. i preferred opal fruits, and marathons. they also changed the ingredients on sherbet dips, the new sherbert is like pansy dust, the old stuff used to blow your brains out. oil of ulay, became olay (sounds like it should be accompanied by a spanish hand clap "olay") Jif became Cif (sounds like a yeast infection now.) polos and rolos have less in a packet, they're used to be more monster munch flavours
  12. don't remember them
  13. I don't want to start a GB yet, as i'm not sure there will be that much interest, and also we're not sure yet if it will definetly fit either straight on, or if i will need to fabricate up a mounting harness using original fixing points. i'll try and get under the car and see what i can work out. ( ,this was the hold up from me ordering ages ago, just haven't had time to jack up and have a look. ) Swift motorsport retractable numberplate holder interest in a GB manual is about $65, motorised is about $125 (this is standard prices, if there is enough interest i'll see what i can negotiate.) don't want to talk figures until i have some numbers to negotiate with. 1. rtbiscuit - manual 2. fakeindian - 3.
  14. lesson learned, don't swerve for animals i'll slow down if i can, if not, its a plow straight through them, less expensive in the long run
  15. for the bit of extra cash, i'd get the sessanta's
  16. apparently i've one the nigerian lottery 6 times, either i'm very lucky, or only a few of us actually play it
  17. i was in a 6 car shunt 2 years ago, i was the front car, i stopped, the 6 cars behind didn't, my car needed minor cosmetic work, but the car was pretty undamaged. at the scene and when leaving i felt fine, but the whiplash i had got didn't show up until about 12 hours later, was getting headaches, stiff neck etc and it got really bad. ended up with 6 visits to the oesteopath. took some time off for it etc. only claimed for what i had to pay for. sometimes things don't show up at the scene. it may not be a money grabber
  18. if people are interested post up below, and if we have a few interested, i'll see if i can get the price down on them for a group order
  19. i'll measure mine at the weekend, just get last day out of the way at work, and then i can do car stuff
  20. looks like an alignment issue, and the inability to check tread depth on a regular occasion
  21. possibly but not on mine. the typhoon air scoop is in the way, plus i don't want to make holes in my mesh that size. mines going in under the bumper, as its easier to mount there. plus the radiator is quite close, not sure how they sqeezed it in there. by all means you can try, but looks like more work than i'm willing to try
  22. the wood is oak so hard wearing, but its sealed in plastic, so the water can't get to it. and it fits snuggly into the gap
  23. nope it just attatches to the square in the nismo bumper, i cut my numberplate down to fit. when i replace mine with the retractable one, you can have my block of wood if you like
