  1. big enough for 2 golf bags
  2. have a good search on induction kits, you won't really see much in gains, but you do gain a good sound. k&n are good so are popchargers and pipercross.
  3. my nismo is undergoing the same treatment as we speak.
  4. need to see a picture to know exactly what your on about, i know where you mean and have a rough idea, but can't see how it will stop elbow activation.
  5. i love the BC setup, its what i'd go for if i had the cash
  6. sounds like a good idea
  7. bet that was the first time he had a copper up his tail pipe
  8. BM is it alright if i convoy up with you
  9. love the new concept supra ( FT HS) just have to see if they build it, that and the new honda NSX, theres some proper interesting cars in the next 3 years, will have to see if one of them is a worthy Zed replacement for me.
  10. will hopefully do it in a week or too, was going to wait till i had the next installment.
  11. going to sit down soon and do a new post with all details and pics for all items and then get the mods to lock it and leave this one as a discussion thread. got the side badges soon, well, by friday if i can get hold of rob, and hopefully within the next few weeks a nose badge as well. and then hopefully wheel centres.
  12. theres another thread started else where. confirming meals and services on the day
  13. if its a retractable its about £100 for a new cubby, i have one but i need to make a new internal facia,(i bought it brand new was meant to use it but the audio fitters cut some bits out, the door is fine, just need to use the laser cutter to make a new interal front. does it actually have satnav? or is it just a cubby door. i presume its the retractable and not the up down one? posibility is instead of me making a new fasia you could take it as is, and remove the door from mine and fit it to yours. pm me if your interested, need pics etc
  14. if yours has gone up in value so have the new lower milage ones you'd sell and buy your own car back, stick with what you got, or you'll come un stuck
  15. i hate the one with the "don't break up with your hair" makes me wish i had a flame thrower
  16. i can't stand the go compare advert with the fake moustached opera singer.
  17. darren you keep whoring out that picture of your car, any old excuse
  18. good luck with the sale, look forward to seeing you in a zed, bet it doesn't stay unmodded for long, and the cash you put in the bank ends up on the zed within 12 months as for sales i am right in thinking its on pistonheads and the supra club forum, could try some of the jap performance mags, like said before, its a niche market, if you struggle might be worth stripping back and partially returning to stock, but would be a shame to see that happen.
  19. get a tape measure out, set it at those 2 lengths and see which one you prefer. i guess the shorter one would sit roughly inline with the width of the car, the other would stick out slightly. but best to check first. i really like the low rise one might have to save up the pennies. will have a go at photoshopping it onto the car, never tried before, unless someoen else can do it.
  20. i would gauge the zed has gone up by an average of £1200
  21. never tried one, but i am intrigued, although i don't know if my arteries will forgive me
  22. it seems your not the first to say that there aren't many around in the condition that poeple want for the price they want to pay, don't forget this was a £30k sports car when new, and your hoping to have saved £17k from buying it new 4 years ago. to be honest i think the car market is staberlising out, people are no longer panic selling like they were 12 months ago, people kno what they're worth, aren't in a rush to sell and are happy to hold out for the right price. i think the bargain pick ups of last year are gone, and i think you may need to pay a more realistic price for the car. i got my 06 11 months ago for £15,000 its only got 22,000 on the clock but i would proably ask about £14,500 - £15,000 for it now, but thats cos i don't want to sell. if you want a bargain i think you'll need to be prepared to travel, i got mine in harrowgate, my last car in stoke on trent, and i live in suffolk. but then i saved £3000 on what a local dealership wanted for an identical car.
  23. i'd try to get him down to 13,200, or walk away and find something else.
  24. i may be wrong but i think carbon coops is now the face of tech carbon, well on here any way, i think he maybe doing the sales side and leg work for them, so that they can concentrate on manufacture. i could be completely wrong and anyone feel free to correct me.
  25. in face value with all your mods i can see where your coming from, yes in monatary terms the outlay you spent maybe worth more than the Zed you looking to replace it with. but as said before i wouldn't class it as an upgrade for a car thats well over 10 years old. your right in a straight line the supra will probably win, but i've never been bothered about straight line dragging, to me its not proper driving. put both cars on the same track and see whos the fastest after 3 laps would be a more accurate measure. i like the supras, but for me it would be a step back, and a step forward would be the new NSX due out next year
