Hi guys, well after the first meet went so well i'm now looking for ideas for 2010. I think something along the same lines as last time would be good but lets try and get to a different part of the country so that we can be a bit handier for other members. So stick all your ideas and possible dates up and we'll see what proves popular. I'd like to mention as well that the z club are having a big run out in ireland next year, I will keep everyone updated on here.

I would keep it behind the standard grill. IMO mesh and having it exposed looks chav, really don't think either suit the z.

Autobulbsdirect are very good, quick delivery and free postage.

Done exactly the same thing a few months back, pain in the arse.

I'm quite surprised there's so many people recommending the T1-Rs, I didn't like them at all on the Z.

I think there's a good few on my350z have them fitted, a search on there should throw a few pics up.

Not my cup of tea buddy, too much going on for a white one, think white looks better kept simple.

It looks like the stillen spoiler (v1 I think)

I have the scorpion on mine and tbh it's 100%. I'd agree with other comments on here, tell them where to stick their k2 and give cs a shout, who is up there with the best traders i've ever dealt with.

I'd be up for one if they look good.

Land Rover Defender fully kitted out

Gullwing Merc

Zonda F

I'll take a set for the sides as well if they're still available.

I know samsung sorta kicked off the whole led tvs but I remember reading somwhere that the samsung ones are not full led on the screen whereas some other makes are, not really up to spec on tellys but it's something you might want to look at.

+1 on the top secret, it looks awesome.

Personally wouldn't have them anywhere near me, for me i'd only go for the eibach hubcentrics, also the ones on ebay are only 8mm.

Welcome buddy, wouldn't worry too much about the front bumper, nearly everyone has had theirs resprayed due to stonechips.

Not fussed on the other badges but i think they look well

Tbh i was sorta expecting them to look a bit cheap BUT they really really look well, fit in with your car perfect

£200 must be joking, they look ok and a bit novalty but hardly worth that sort of money, the guy making them must be laughing all the way to the bank, sorry but feel it must be said

I'd have to agree, when they were first mentioned a while back i was interested in getting some but after seeing them i'd have to say i'm very disappointed in them. Cheap looking imo

Hi Guys

 

Any idea about the next NI meet?

 

cheers

 

Hi buddy, atm i'm looking into next year. I'm looking at maybe getting a stand organised in a couple of local shows and having a couple of drive outs like our last meet, prob one in may and one in september again. I was also hoping to get over to an event in GB (Wales run out/Zfest etc), with a bit of a convoy heading down to Dublin for the ferry.

If you're not wanting ott, then the k1 is not for you, the scorpion is a good bet.

Zed'ers, thanks, great information, especially the informative threads posted by Zedrush. I believe that I will go ahead with the modifications, although will now seriously consider increasing the budget to accomodate strengthening the internals. Has anyone on this forum gone through the internal modification route? What sort of costs are involved? I had a quick browse and found some forged pistons at £799, what further modifications are required on top of this to assist with power over 400bhp?

 

I must admit, I will without a shadow of doubt go for the progressive controller and window switch, I really don't want to suffer any engine issues.

 

Has anyone any further comments de-cating the exhaust, as mentioned, I was advised to have a "hand built" solution which would benefit over any aftermarket product?

 

Again thanks for all your comments, very helpful.

 

Cheers

It will probably depend on what figures you're looking for, i think the first thing to go is usually the con rods. The hand built de-cats sounds a bit strange as any de-cats i've seen are just a straight bit of pipe.

The gm is absolutely stunning

Love the rear bumper, was thinking of the same myself, so good to see some pics of it in azure. What's the colour match like? The skirts look badly off in the pics.

+1 congratulations to Colin.
