Great work Andy!

But quick question, what "customisation of the wing" needs to take place? I thought the kit just fits without "major" mods?

Just wondering as I nearly bought some of these in the past and thought they didn't require body mods etc?

Stew book us a room im coming over lol Need your translater to translate something to your secretary. Ménage à trois? cant figure out what it means

UUURRRRRGGGHHHH........ what you, Stew and the secretary!

Either that or I think Demon Tweeks are pretty good on bike accessories now......

This is the longest thread ive ever seen

Well it is Sarnies!

Therefore most of it is b8ll*x.......

Anyway, I think one of the Wales threads was longer...... At least that was about something worthwhile.

I'm going to stop adding to this now though!

I'd be interested in Sway bars (or anti roll bars as we cal them here )

 

I'd want them adjustable and might as well do front and rear

 

Adam, suggestions?

I think the Hotchkiss ones are adjustable...... not seen much about them here, but know they are big in the states.

They fit em on all the cars on "Overhaulin"

From my own experinece, the more you try and protect something, the more likely damage is to occur...................Murhpy's Law.

 

Yeah and from my experience, the more cliche advice you give, the worse your spelling gets!

And from my experience, the cocky ones do not get anywhere in life

And from my experience, he who posts lasts is a post whore!

That being either you or our custard coloured soapbox friend!

there will be mate, look at all those NMGB cars

 

GT-S?

Thought you were sick of seeing that now mate

Yes its the people that strive to get that base model 3 series, so they can pose to their neighbours and think, I've made it in life......

Then they drive around like they are soooo much better than everyone else. I've given up on the amount of idiotic driving i've seen from someone in a 3 series beemer! Agree with what you say about the higher models although I have seen some right "bar stewards" driving like kn8bs in M3s!!

I only honestly feel that I couldn't buy a BMW out of principle, no matter how good the cars are! For example, think Kev's 6 series is nice, like the M6..... and I actually quite like the look of the twin turbo 3 series coupe etc, but I just couldn't do it.....

I parked about 300m away from a clients house today cos I didn't like the look of the kerbs outside his house

Mate, I think thats a "little" excessive. I think a 2 ft distance would have done for you, like your normal parking!

It was the Koeniggsegg engineer who crashed the car though!

Imagine him ringing his bosses up,.....

"erm, remember that car we've only got one of and its our best customers..... well its got a slight ding in it. Think Dentec will get it out! "

I think you will find that all Volks are Chromed. They are chrome on alloy. The reason I say this is I read a number of threads where Volk users in the US had kerbed the wheels and since this removed the layer of chrome the damage cannot be easily polished out as the metal underneath is a different colour.

 

Work Wheels are polished alloy...

Bottom line. Stay clear of any kerbs......

Just imagine Sarnie driving down the middle of every road now!

As you may know I have seen it in the flesh and its much closer to the first pic, does not look yellow but more of a green tint if anything.

Good, thats the colour I like!

Sorry to hear the reasons why mate...... I really hope you sell this car quickly. It looks mint!

Or this GT1 MMmmmmmmmmm.......

Looks like a bloody shopping trolley with that wing on though!

Gonna be getting my shiny new 350z on 12th june, and i'm counting down the days till it arrives, as soon as i get it i'll post some pics and let you know how it compares to the mk2 i test drove. Do guys reckon i should spray the carbon fibre veilside spoiler or leave as is, i can't make my mind up, take it easy, al

Welcome Al!

So did you order the Veilside spoiler through the dealer??

Just didn't think you'd have that option. I take it you mean you've ordered to add on etc on your own?

I've had a S2000 (although not supercharged) and prefer the standard zed over it anyday!

Much more fun, gets the traction down better and much better for sliding!

Think its a bit expensive, think he will be lucky to get that?

Details are a bit shabby as well. But its in a new colour Azure black!

But just around the corner from me, next town over......

I'm sure the nismo'd zed in those pics is actually Solar Yellow and not the Orange that we are getting.

Solar Orange is the colour name in the states for the Temper Orange here....

But I know what you mean. Its a strange colour in pics though, sometimes looks paler than others!

Sarnies sig is not as wide as some of yours could the hieght of his sig not be compensated???

Not really as its the height that causes us to get to a point where you have 4 post per page (not there yet, but it soon gets there)...... I don't width is as bad as height.

To be honest, it wouldn't look any worse if he went within the guidelines like everyone else, he's just being an arse (as per normal)

ya just did

 

I wasn't complaining

I am, get your bloody sig changed! Its too tall!!

(sending around the signature gestapo now )

How's everyone doing? Not been on here for a while! Holly and I will be @ Jap Fest, Silverstone june 3rd, Pod end of June and JAE. Anyone going to these shows? Be good to see some old faces again!

 

I'll be on the MLR stand so will have to track you down

Good to see you again Nick!

I can't make JAE this year as stag do in Berlin! Will have to try to get some of the other meets though!

I haven't mate, all I am basing it on are these pictures and website.

btw the second picture is supposedly the same colour car under harsh lighting.

Mmmmm I love the look of the orange in that first pic! Looks exactly the same as the sort of orange I love. I've seen the dealers press pack yesterday for 07 model and it looks much paler in that (but it was a graphic pic, not an actual pic)......

The second pic looks more like UY than orange!

Keep me informed Simon if you get any more decent pics?

There are some good ones in the my350z.com link, some on page 3 that you can actually see the pearl fleck in the paint....

Get a Nissan estimate of repair.

 

I have

 

It's now been written off, estimated repair cost got close to 22k, at which point they decided to write the car off and simply replace it with a new one.

 

2007 Temper Orange Nismo GT has been ordered and due mid August

Simon,

Have you managed to see anthing in the flesh (colour sample) etc about the Orange?

I have to admit to being interested, dying to see one on the flesh etc....

It's been a really bad week and to top it all off I scraped my front nearside alloy in a car park on Monday. I'm so upset its taken me a week just to talk about it.

 

Has anyone used Diamond Wheels in Stockport for a repair? I found a thread suggesting them but there wasn't any actual feedback on there.

Digsy,

I talked to these guys about refurbing the volks etc that I bought (that sold to Liam). Seemed decent enough and honest about difficulties for them in reparing diamond cut lips etc.....

To be honest, they will want to know all about your wheels then should give you an honest answer etc. Someone one mentioned them originally but I didn't end up using them as decided to sell the wheels etc!

Think you'll be ok though..... There was a place in Brum I found as well that was meant to be good. But I think i ripped up the contact details last week!
