    V6 NOS part 1!!

    Thanks mate!! Yes I will be doing something similar to the Cougars ICE in the Z all be it with not so much equipment to keep the weight down so I can keep my fun levels up!!! I have to say I hate the standard Cougars but when I got it, no-one had done one before and I fancied a challenge and I think it turned out ok!!! It's stressed me out more than anything else in my life due to the lack of available parts so pretty much everything internally is bespoke but it all adds to the individuality!! I do like modifying cars but I can't stand all the Saxo's and Corsa's you see about with their HUGE kits and 1.2 engines but I would like to create something similar to the Cougar with the Z....something classy but still practical and fun to drive.

    Have you ripped the flap out as well or just the sat-nav??? If you have the panel I am very interested if you fancy flogging it!!!

    V6 NOS part 1!!

    20's are the only way to go on a Z!! I would have loved to have gone 20's on the Coug but they would have hit the bottom of the front strut tower and then you are in a whole world of pain!!!

    V6 NOS part 1!!

    Yes they are. They are 19" Kahn RS-V's!! Lovely wheels and one of my favourite things on the car! They are the $$ but are well worth it!! I had 2 sets of BK299's on there before the Kahn's went on and they were made of chocolate and buckled very easily!! Won't be going back there soon!!!

    V6 NOS part 1!!

    Thanks guys!!! The plate will be staying, don't worry about that and a bargain at only £399!!! The majority of the ICE will be staying as well.....have to admit I do have a big soft spot for my music and A/V stuff!! Did the majority of the work on it myself apart from the spraying so it is definatly a labour of love!!
  7. Bit bored at work today so thought I would share some pics of my car with you. She is now sold and is being picked up on March 18th so then the Z will be well on it's way!! I tried to keep it subtle but classy at the same time...hopefully I have succeded! Had quite a lot of success with her including 4 magazine shoots, including cover on one as well as 2 film shoots and a few trophies and awards along the way as well!! It will be sad to see her go as I have had 4 very good and fun years with her but it is time to move on and lets's face it, the Z will more than make up for it!! Let me know what you think!!

    Mileage

    I worked out my fuel bill for the last year and it came in at a hefty £6,700!! Needless to say I now have a Mk1 Golf as my runabout!! Bring on the 40mpg!!
  11. I was up there on Saturday for the Streetlife TV and Fast Car meet. Organised a 10 car stand up there for Streetlife TV. Was a good night apart from the usual chavs spoiling it!!!!! No doubt I will be going up there again.

    Evo X

    The front window looks too short to me and the A-pillars look like they have been taken from a coupe but it is an Evo. The spoiler is still a bit tame for an Evo for my liking as well. Love the front end though but would still rather an R35!
  13. I have a 3x3 gazebo that I am more than happy to bring along if I can make it.
  14. Depending on how I get on with the car I will be well up for this but won't know until closer to the time. What is the cut off point for this??? Thanks.
  15. What's the definition of the bravest man in the world?? The man who comes home drunk, covered in lipstick and smelling of perfume, then slaps his wife on the backside and says: "You're next, fatty." Man walks into the bedroom with a sheep under his arm while his wife is lying in bed reading. Man says: "This is the pig I have sex with when you've got a headache." Wife replies: "I think you'll find, that is a sheep." Man replies: "I think you'll find I was talking to the sheep." A man walks into his bedroom and sees his wife packing a suitcase. He Asks, "What are you doing?" She answers, "I'm moving to Sydney. I heard prostitutes there get paid £400 for doing what I do for you for free." Later that night, on her way out, the wife walks into the bedroom and sees her husband packing his suitcase. When she asks him where he's going, he replies, "I'm coming too I want to see how you live on £800 a year". A woman was shopping at her local supermarket where she selected: * 2 litres of low fat milk * a dozen eggs * 2 litres of orange juice * a head of lettuce * half a dozen tomatoes * a 500g jar of coffee * a 250g pack of bacon As she was unloading her items on the conveyor belt to check out, A drunk standing behind her watched as she placed the items in Front of the cashier. While the cashier was ringing up her purchases, the drunk calmly stated," You must be single." The woman was a bit startled by this proclamation, but she was intrigued by the derelict's intuition, since she was indeed single. She looked at her six items on the belt and saw nothing particularly unusual about her selections that could have tipped off the Drunk to her marital status. Curiosity getting the better of her, she said, "Well, you know what, you're absolutely correct. But how on earth did you know that?" The drunk replied, "Cause you're a f #**in ugly bitch"

    "Glovebox" flaps

    I love this forum!! This was the one I found.......... http://www.courtesyparts.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=CP&Product_Code=68250-Z3306 I am feeling safe in assuming it doesn't have a motor more that it has a kind of release switch then cogs pull it up but it still seemed steep!!

    "Glovebox" flaps

    I have heard that there may be more than one option for the flap above the headunit where the satnav goes. Is this the case and if so, what are the options? Was one on imports or something?? Thanks in advance (Admin - Sorry if this is in the wrong room but seemed the best fit!!)
