  4. enkei NT03's are my favourite wheel and have had a few sets of various cars, along with RP01's and RPF's .. Always impressed and altho they light as hell they also strong as hell. Only ever used them on drift cars and they took a pounding on track and constant tyre changing very well

  12. Hey John. Fuel comsuption isnt an issue for me anymore as i work about 12 miles from home lol. The zed does about 28mpg on average and gets about 35 on the m/way which i consider very good anyway lol. I'll also be goign with the jzx161 to Aristo will be converted to manual to help with it but if i get 20-25 out of it then im happy. The chick has the lpg'ed gs for the long runs
  13. First off this is a 50/50 sale. Im not worried if it doesnt sell but at the same time im craving an Aristo V300. I never keep cars long ( had over 60 in 10 years ) as i get bored quickly and cant settle down, god help my soon to be wife. I also could do with a bit of extra cash for the wedding in march to. Some will recognise this as Mattbowey's old car that he had a little off with and gave the rear end a facelift. PLease see pics on some of Matts threads here for the damage viewtopic.php?f=31&t=41568 first and last page. As a result of it being an import it was written off so the car is a Cat D The car has been repaired very well by someone, think it was armstrong car sales as thats where the owner before me got it from. Bit of history and issues ive had with it since my ownership. Im being 100% here as i dont want the next owner to have any surprises like i did on my way home. Previous owner had the common fan faults and didnt tell me so on my way home the car over heated. As soon as i noticed the temp gauge go above 3/4 whilst i was stuck in traffic i pulled in and let it cool down. Called RAC and they said the fans werent kicking in and topped in up with water and i drove home watching the gauge like a hawk, luckily for me it was 2am on the M25 so temps stayed down ( traffic had gone by then ). Turns out the fans werent kicking in and the thermostat wasnt opening all the way so i replaced the rad with a very thick Alloy Racing rad and put twin 13" electric fans wired to a manual switch in the cabin ( next to the TCS button ). I also had to remove the thermostat as i needed the car that day and couldnt get one on a sunday evening. Now the temps stay between 1/4 and a 1/2 when drving and even sat in traffic for 20-30 mins after a long motorway drive the temps dont get over half way and if they do you flick the switch and it will bring the temps down to almost cold in a few mins ( very big rad and powerful fans = ) . Car uses no water and no oil and there arent any signs of HG issues ie no white smoke on start up, idle or when hot, not sludge under the cap and the heating blows hot when car is up to temp. The only other issue is the drive shaft click which is on the drivers side only. Right so thats the issues out the way now the specs, if your still interested lol 2005 MOt and Tax til end of Feb and Jan respectively 57 000 miles which is a combination of KM's and miles Very little paperwork with it unfortuneately Rare white/cream leather in very good condition 6 speed manual working perfectly with no crunchies bangs etc etc alloy rad with twin electric fans manual switch Brembo's with drilled and grooved discs PAS E/W A/c no idea if it works as never use it Alarm, immob , central locking Xtron Sat nav , DVD, ipod double din unit Car will come on either G35 which all have good very legal tyres and not the 19" rota's im afraid Price wise im looking for £5750 which i feel considering Cat D and the issues listed and the money i spent is a fair but i am open to sensible offers Project thread here with all the work and some pics done viewtopic.php?f=176&t=55895&start=0 also some pics here with interior and hopefully the mods accept this as proof its me Any more info or pics needed please get in touch. I am open to part ex if its with a gs300 or an Aristo thanks
  14. i thought about a gs430 but they 2/3 times the price of a gs300 and not that much more powerful ( granted the torque is better ) but then its the same as the 350 if not more to get up to 400bhp where as the aristo is literally more boost, fiel pump, bolt on bits and your getting close so its a few hundred pounds lol
  15. stew that is pimping but this is why im in need of an aristo http://www.youtube.com/watch?NR=1&featu ... 4IEom6DYuo
  16. yeah ive nearly bought an LS about half a dozen times but never do lol. The gs we got is LPG'ed, moted for 8 months, cusco coilovers, SSR vienna wheels and fully loaded and we paid 1100 for it. Ive seen aristo's going for 3k so i could get the aristo, manual it and steal all the good bits off her car and have one savage car lol i dont know.. i change my mind hourly let alone daily. Ive had about 60 cars in the last 10 years so you can see i get bored very veyr quickly
  17. progress might slow down on this. My fiancee just bought a GS300 and tbh i much prefer driving that over this so im comtemplating selling the zed and getting an aristo not sure 50/50 at the moment but i have advertised the zed for 5750 on driftworks to see what responce i get. TBH if it doesnt sell im not fussed but after driving hers im craving a big of 400 brake 4 door VIP style
  18. there is a 370z near me that parks in a pub car pary taking up 2 spaces ALLLLL the time . I suspect he is the owner or manager
  19. your just mean just to let people know. 10.5x19 et20 will fit on stock height with out any fouling on the front ( lock to lock going forwards and back ) BUT the wheel is extreeeeeeeeeeeeeemeeeeely close to the front calipers ( if your running brembo's ) I would say 1 maybe 2 mm at the very very most so 3mm slip ons would be recommended. The sit almost flush with the arches and i have 245/30/19 Avon zz3's with slight stretch Rears fit on and look dwarfed thansk to the big ass on a zed.
  20. want me to put picks of mine on here ??? or do you want to wait for a less embarressing ride height
  21. Wonder If his friends drive corvettes
  22. it was probably trying to commit suicide thanks to the stupid stretch and color
  23. considering the rear wheels im def not ruling out stretch at all BUUUUT, now im writing this because of having many a tyre pop off a rim front and back at various speeds due to stretch BUUUUUUT if it was stretch why is the tyre not still on the rim ? Every one i have had pop off just comes off the beed and sits in the center of the rim or on one of the beeds. Recon it was either a delamination or blow out due to the damage and imoh the road markings dont go back very far/ far enough to show that sort of speed unless he has some serious brakes and/or the tyre wasnt off the rim for long and came off when he hit the kerb at a much much slower speed
  24. please can a mod close/delete this. Bought an LPG gs300 so these will be going on that so the missus doesnt destroy the SSR viennas that are on it already lol spanking you kindly ceffy
