    Front wheel!

    Did you pm zmanalex ? Drop R35lee a pm aswell
  2. agreed but no one has said that, they have said they dont like the cars not the badge Im struggling here, youve said that you dont like BMW's, explain to me what an M6 and a 118d have in common other than the badge? Hell, explain what a 318i and an M3 have in common other than the badge ........... And as for pompous reply, sipar seems to have seen where Im coming from - I dont think it was pompous at all, you just read it that way. the reply was not aimed at sipar it was aimed directly at me .... I realise this is difficult to grasp but as I have stated in the previous posts, they do everything well and I dont know why I dont like them, they tick all the boxes but they are not for me maybe tophooker has it, maybe it is the styling
  3. spacers make a big difference to the stance, the whole car looks more aggressive interested to know if there will be any clearance issues with eibach and spacers
  4. there were pics of ebized's on here but i cant find them, best pm him
  5. what utter rubbish ! that is probably the most insulting and stupidest comment I have read on the forum or any forum, nearly all modern day bmw's have a similar feel to them, as do audi ( not sure about the R8) OK, so Ive driven a 1M, M135i, 123d, E36/E46/E92 M3, E36 328i, E46 330D (estate and saloon), E92 335i, E39 M5 and E38 740i in the last 12 months or so, and you know what? Every single one of them is different to the point I could probably guess which I was driving if I was blindfolded (might crash a bit though), to generalise and say you dont like any is actually utter rubbish, not what Ive just posted. I have also driven , 1,3,5 series and m3 extensively and worked on most, they are great cars but I dont like them, I dont know why, they do everything very well and that was my point but you're insulting pompous reply was not needed

  7. what utter rubbish ! that is probably the most insulting and stupidest comment I have read on the forum or any forum, nearly all modern day bmw's have a similar feel to them, as do audi ( not sure about the R8) so if someone says they dont like Ford, you would consider them not to like the Anglia or Zephyr or would you be sensible and think they are talking about the current range that has been available for the last 10 yrs post you're opinion about cars by all means but not about people who you know nothing about ! otherwise it's too personal
  8. perfect
  9. This subject genuinely interests me as i am in exactly the same camp as you, i have absolutely no doubt the Cayman is the better car, infact any Porsche i have been in and or driven is a great drive, but they do absolutely nothing for me, curious as to why as even i have no idea Just one of those things, I am the same with bmw's ... Great cars but do nothing for me at all, my son has just bought 335d coupe, lovely car but not for me, couldn't say why though, yes I've driven m3's etc and felt the same
  10. what kit is that ? could do with a spoiler, search the rc gymkhana stuff
  11. I had my car serviced at a performance indy last week and they recommended Hks as a panel filter, I personally don't like the k&n oiled filters as they can cause problems with the maf, it's a trade off most of the time between a free flowing filter and what its actually letting through to the throttle body Hks and cosworth have good feedback, when I say Hks I mean the super hybrid, the older filter was tested and reported that some of the pores were letting contaminates through, the new one is ok
  12. location helps aswell
  13. This is mad, it's a no fault, no cost claim !! when you didn't even claim but they consider you a higher risk because you were involved in an accident and statics show you are more likely to have another

    370z Akebono

    Pm r35lee he will know as he has dealt with the brembo and akebono
  15. Dry... 09-13 Nissan 370Z HKS Hybrid Filters are a direct replacement for OE panel filters when a factory airbox is required or preferred. Super Hybrid Filters features a 3-layer dry-type filter. The filter element is bonded to a flexible nylon frame and offers a price-friendly performance alternative to a full intake system.
  16. What are the delivery costs ? Are these oiled filters like the k&n or dry Thanks
  17. brilliant
  18. in the vid he appears to be sitting very high ! Its as if he hasn't dropped the seat base angle down ??
  19. Firstly just let me say I like the Chris Harris reviews they are usually informative and entertaining. He says the car is good up until you push it beyond 8/10's which is probably fair enough in my opinion, when you push the 370 too far it can get lairy but 99% of the time you will not drive it beyond 8/10 and if you were going to then you would make modifications to improve the last 2/10th's e.g suspension, brakes etc If the car was to drive better in the final 2/10th it would not be what it is made to be i.e. a brilliant gt cruiser that eats the miles up and you can enjoy driving 200+ miles in rather than it being a chore, it's a very comfortable car around town or on the motorway, as with any car when pushing it you need to realise it's limits If it drove better on the limit then the rest would suffer, comfort and usability and would become a car that is great for a blat but you wouldn't want to go a great distance in it Chris is well known on the Porsche forums and definitely is biased towards them, he doesn't mention the cost of ownership would be much higher and the fact that earleir caymans are known to suffer bore scoring, ims failure etc etc yes they are great cars and handle superbly but if he is going to be brutally honest then be brutal about them all I watched this before I bought my 370 aswell as all the other reviews, as said most are positive and I made my own mind up after many test drives, I dont drive like he is on the test (most of the time) Whats the best car ? the car that suits you're needs and budget
  20. That exhaust look's standard to me from here but that number plate is definitely not road legal. Welcome aboard and enjoy your new Zed. Eagle eye ! Good spot on the plate
  21. Get a pic from underneath, the back box is more telling
  22. * * On my phone, you don't get the smilies
  23. Pm zedmanalex or r35lee I'm sure they will have a used fuse box with relays Maybe if there is a drain hole near there it's blocked ? Which would cause it to fill with water
  24. Apart from driving it, any plans ?
