  2. So you didnt put in a little cheeky 10k offer then? What was the damage to the rear wheel?
  3. So you didnt land the Ollie Blind 180, heelside 360 with the Method Grab then mate? Unlucky Darren, hope your back on the mend soon Nice of Martin to come round and wash the car for you!!
  4. Nice work Buster, did you have the spats on before and then add the carbon sections? Side badge now Orange Zed and Black outer ring or visa versa perhaps?

    My first mod

    Looks nice on the white, good choice. Good detail too. All you need to do is remove the previous owners 350z's off the wheels now
  6. You just got to find the secret 3rd seat now
  7. +1 on that! im desperate for the time attacks to go on my kuro z, plus his bonnet too! Total OT!! But it keeps your post uptop Ian Springy, what software did you use to make the pic in your sig? If its photoshop, then what filters / settings did you use?
  8. Just plain greedy!!! Nice purchase
  9. Just to add one for prosperity!.... viewtopic.php?f=41&t=26053 Am sure there are a few more recent ones!

    Biggest issue at the moment for sports hybrids is the batterys... too many needed = heavy weight.. But on the + side, the torque band is the same from 0 to 6000rpm... chances are the electric will power off the line and then the engine kick in for cruising and thus charging the batterys... (like the prius / lexus!!) So no... no sound off the line But I will be rich from my Exhauspeakers !!!
  12. guessing you havnt checked the temps under the bonnet then.... unsheilded manifolds gave me a 20degree increase on engine temp... lots of bad hot air under there... and that was a rolling temp increase! Heatsheilds bought the temp down from my fujitsubos... I would suggest if your thinking of FI then you need to get them dipped or wrapped....

    Nissan 400Z

    there will be some nissan hybrids too out in the next year or so...... the toyota does look quite nice though.. Saw the lexus hybrid at goodwood... looked lovely but there was no sound... have a feeling that there will be a company making exhausts with speakers in, in the future so the noise matches the looks.......... Hmm.... Must get on to the patent office!!! Thats my idea!!

    Nissan 400Z

    there is a vq40 engine but I doubt it will ever hit a z engine... it would go over the skyline which isnt in the roadmap... v8 zed, nice thoughts, factory turbo zed, nice thoughts, but all dreams I think... Roadmap is for smalled sports cars to rival the mx-5 market and the hot hatch cars like the clio end of the market me thinks...

  16. I assume you missed this thread then viewtopic.php?f=3&t=26867 :evil: Pretty sure that car was moving when that happened... Also, it may need some suspension work so you need to add a few £ on for that.. He would be better off parting out and then buying OEM parts to get his cash back if he cant afford to repair..
  17. Bagsie Takata harness and Sparco harness bar... Think you had a few more bits I had my beadie magpie eye on too!
  18. BHP isn't the issue. Its torque that destroys the rods Cant have one without the other... I've got tons of torque but not so much power. Torque isnt cheap either!!
  19. Cant have one without the other... But its not the BHP that causes the failiures, its torque So what the torque number to be careful of then? 400 seems to be the limit, sure that Alex will confirm either way Hahahahahahaha Chicken!!!
  20. yeh maybe, wouldnt be suprised if they only sold with the sideskirts though, but worth a call.
  21. BHP isn't the issue. Its torque that destroys the rods Cant have one without the other... But its not the BHP that causes the failiures, its torque So what the torque number to be careful of then?
  22. BHP isn't the issue. Its torque that destroys the rods Cant have one without the other...
  23. hks, good stuff. Not as easy as just doing the TT, but looks like you may have done a few bits to your car already... Just dont go over 400bhp...
  24. Did you heatsheild them?
  25. Saw them on the 370z at goodwood, looks quite cool but have often felt they needed to carry on to the front and rear bumpers... Good work for giving it a go though
