  1. I thought the LE37T's were discontinued ages ago, Adam?
  2. http://www.pistonheads.com/news/default ... ryId=16532 Well done the Mail on Sunday.....
  3. Congratulations, old son!
  4. Yep, a completely random pic of Tim's car. He doesn't even have those lights!
  5. The consensus from the motoring press is not that its been "made worse". Well from V10 to V8, 520 bhp to 414 bhp, 0-60 4.3 to 3.8, lower torque of 376 down to 276 lb-ft, top speed down from 198 to 181 mph, weight up from 1430 to 1560 kg. All suggest to me that they've taken a great car and made it worse, but still a great car in its own right i'm sure. Again, just like the Cayman when Porsche took out the LSD to keep cost/ performance down I know its not mean't to be a direct competitor and that its supposed to be cheaper but a client of mine has just bought one for over £90k which is Gallardo money. Performance stats don't tell the whole story, of course. The fact that it is being touted as better than the 911 suggests to me that they've taken a great car and made another great car in a different class. There's still £40k plus between them on list price (for a base Gallardo not the SE) and I'm sure that there are plenty of ways to add to Gallardo's price with extras.
  6. there used to be a couple selling lucky heather in the centre of manchester. Looked like a right pair of tramps. They once came up to me and asked me to buy some lucky heather. I said 'It aint brought you much luck as it' and walked off Any reason why you were speaking with a Cockney accent, me Old China?

    Tyres

    Most people with 19" rims run 245/35 and 275/35.

  9. Ditto....where did you get the tires from and what are they??!! I got my 19 inch Pirelli's for less than £500 Are you suffering from insomnia, Sarnie?
  10. Get some 19" wheels, mate. Seriously, the photos don't do them justice.
  11. I can't see anyone passing up a shotgun ride in the Lambo, mate. £20 each When are you and PJ coming to Liverpool so I get a ride in the Tango Terror?
  12. Yes I changed mine. IMO the 18's are swallowed by the arches once the nismo kit is added. Some nice 19's with an aggressive offset will bring the wheels out of the arches. If you look at one of your pics, the rear wheels are inside the arches. Mine looked like this: All IMO of course You must have got some expert advice on those offsets, mate. Perfecto!
  13. I love that Z.... Not keen on the new wheels though. neither am I his old ones looked much better imo +1 Aren't the new ones the same as the ones on Envy's azure zed? Except they are silver/black on Envy's as opposed to silver/blue. There's a guy with silver/red and that's just wrong.
  14. Mine came with the centre caps at no extra cost Nice work, Funkystyling!
  15. I don't like being taken for a ride that's all. Kev said £4.5k kit only or £5.5k installed at his, he'd need the car for a week. His words not mine. Now if the exchange rate has suddenly jumped up from Sunday, I don't know. Kev's words were "PE are very keen on pushing this kit in the UK, hence the low price". Maybe it was a special price for me only? Or maybe he's had a rethink considering I told him it was really cheap vs an APS TT kit? you decide either way, as someone on here once said, something is worth only as much as people are prepared to pay for it. I wouldn't be prepared to pay any amount starting with a 6 for this kit PS how's the Z Dorian, got one yet? if you read my post above, the installed price £5800 That's not how I read Gaz's post here.....

It may well be that they aren't singing from the same hymn sheet on this one which is no good to us.
  17. I can't see anyone passing up a shotgun ride in the Lambo, mate.
  18. But whilst it works out of the box with the stock JDM ECU we still don't know if that's the case for the UK ECU's. Kevin/Gaz?
  19. After getting excited about this and trying to rally the troops it seems Kat had omitted to put her best friends wedding in the diary so unfortunately I'm out.
