That's both ugly and gorgeous at the same time - but you know what I mean!

 

Anyone interested in that sort of thing would probably enjoy Auto Italia in Bristol on April 25. They literally close off a huge area of town and italian cars and bikes line the streets - lots of classics and rare ones included. It's supposed to be a fab weekend!

I've been living in Bristol for nearly 3 years and have never noticed it!! Doh! Where do they have the cars?

Super tidy mate. Exhaust works a treat with that kit.

Welcome. Zed looks nice mate.

lowered 15/20mm enough for me as have to be careful in places!!

Cheers bud, looks about perfect.

Depends on your model of Z. Most people who build car PCs favour the retracting cubby which can be purcahsed from JDM performance.

I like this one its loverly, take it you've sold it now.

It's so sweet isnt it? You wouldnt believe how low he dropped the price to sell, was an absolute bargain for someone!

Looks like a good meet guys, somehow i only just found this thread. Doh!

Shire, what springs/coilovers have you got?

Thanks guys. I'm having a body shop have a look at milling out the hinge mounting holes tomorrow. That should give me a bit of play for the adjustment!

oh, and the 'x' at the end of my first post was my gf, i was playing on the xbox and reading out what for her to write. it was her addition.

P.A.! Good work chap!

You'll probably finish it before i do!! Project is on hold at the moment due to ridiculous work load consuming every waking minute of my life...

Hi guys, HELPPPP!!

I'm currently attempting to fit a new CF bonnet to my motor but it's not quite fitting right. Basically, it needs to move forward about 7-8mm as it's not quite reaching the front catch properly at the moment. Is there a way of adjusting the bonnet hinges or am i going to have to drill them out?!

Any help much appreciated.

I have a fair bit of experience with PCs and the like, so feel free to drop me any questions you may have. Will also be installing my system in the next couple of months and since i'm only in Bristol, you're welcome to have a look at what i'm upto if you like.

You can if you have the $$

I did a lot of research and found these guys had v good reviews (and were local to me):

Not bought yet, am thinking about buying a new laptop and cannabalising the old one for a car pc, just need a special power supply.

Just one thing that worries me is why have you put a little kiss at the bottom of your first post?

+1 Maybe he's just friendly or perhaps address the Nixy/Cara type members of the forum!

Cheers Chris, I'll check it out.

I have the Lilliput 629 in my cubby sat on my desk, waiting for a car PC! It fits a dream. Havent got any pics of it installed, but this is what it looks like in bits!

To fit it i cut (with a Dremel) the original plastic screw taps from the back piece and then bonded (glued) them to the back of the cubby. You can then use the existing the metal tabs to fasten it onto the cubby. I then used some sticky 3M pads to attached the PCBs to the back of the screen. Am just trying to work out the best way of retaining the use of the buttons as i want to be able to flick between inputs (carPC to DVD head unit).

Good luck mate

Not decided yet, keep an eye on this thread:

A mate of a mate with mates rates!! He's based in Corsham i think.

You should come along to the next Bristol meet mate. Pub trip this time

I have mine booked in for next week, bonnet, wings and front bumper for 350.

Nice Vid mate, you must of ridden the whole course twice by the time you'd set the camera up, ridden past and back to pick it up again!!

My bike is shamefully dusty at the moment, am off to Cwm Carn soon though... it's awesome.

Without wishing to offend, the 63 is far to try hard for me, the lines on the car are very aggressive! I would still have the S5 due to its sleekness and subtly.

I agree, i saw an SL63 in Stratford today and it looked a bit pimp-my-ride with funny shiny bits of plastic! S5 is much better choice.

Lol, my old man has one of those, i always take the **** out of it.

Hi Jenna, welcome to the forum, now where's the pics?!

Thought is was the new E-Type 350Z

:lol:

Amazing blue though mike, nice 1. Like Sarnie Says, needs spacers and lowering....
