how much for the mats mates? might be interested if the price is right (as bruce forsyth once said)

welcome on board....get those pics up!!

haha, i thought that too! thats one heavy shunt to do that! he must have been

definately pay for a decent quality one...that part on ebay says professional installation required which questions how well it fits. wasn't aware you needed a mechanics degree to peel off some 3m tape and press hard!!!

impressive, but if i saw him out dancing like that i think i'd roll him up into a ball and stuff him into my empty pint glass!

Not true, Chris's car is now back in spec without the addition of any other parts. Everything had been loosened to fit the springs so all out of place, get stuff fitted at the right place and the right result is achieved. So the camber is spot on without any parts being fitted....i looked through hundreds of threads when looking at which springs to get and everyone who had eibachs said their camber was out and couldnt be adjusted perfectly without new parts. do i stand corrected? (said the man wearing orthopedic shoes)

the very reason i didnt go for eibach...too low and they end costing a fortune once you've adjusted the camber!!

im always too lazy to modify under the bonnet but i have to say that does look good! look forward to seeing it at donny!

if you're gonna go out you may aswell go out with a bang!

£78 shipped from japan the only reason i paid extra for the nismo ones was because id heard a few problems of some fading and yellowing so i just thought id go for these.

i know they are nothing new but here's a pic of them now fitted onto the car...and a few of the whole car. im a pleased with the look, not cheap when you consider what they are but add a nice touch and another nismo badge always goes down well!! still waiting for my nismo skirts and veilside v1 front lip to arrive from adam

i will do mate, i struggled to find any reviews on them..aside from 3fiddy who said his were great. they should be here next week so will let you know how they go. it was abit of a gamble to be honest but i think if they do fit they will look brilliant. if they dont fit, ill make up some strange excuse that i dont want them anymore and try and flog em to someone on here

the 225's are quick, i had a seat leon with same engine and that had a revo remap on it and it was seriously quick....problem is those vag turbo engines lack character. the noise is dull and the revs fade out at the top end so fun factor is low. the Z is a quick car...not that spritely off the line but 3rd, 4th gear it pulls hard, you wont be dissapointed. its power is very linear which is quite deceptive because obviously there is no kick in the back like with a turbo. the Z is very torquey low down so no problems there and you can rev it freely which i much prefer than a turbo. the noise alone will sell it to you!! reliability...it is very good although there do seem to be standard faults with virtually all first phase cars (see warranty threads for details). cost of ownership...servicing is very cheap, insurance aint too horrible, road tax about to be a real wallet clencher and fuel consumption aint great. i dont see over 24 but i drive it to enjoy it. all in all, its a excellent second hand buy, its not the cheapest and is certainly not very practical but thats why they are still fairly exclusive unlike the ubiquitous TT. for those reasons...go for it!

the Zed was the noisiest of them all!!

just going through some pics on my computer and came across this one i thought id share with you. it was a couple of years before my parents went all sensible and bought diesels. r32 - mum 350z - dad focus rs - mine civic type r - bro used to be great on family occasions because we'd all decide to drive!!

welcome pal...your a brave man...to trade im a t350 must be a hard thing to do. such a pretty car!!!

utterly disgraceful mate....i would certainly not let this matter drop (as im sure you are not going to either). it appauls me how some of these supposed main dealers treat customers...to put it into perspective my dad has a 330d coupe (bout 12 months old now) but he wasnt happy with the handling and said it didnt feel right compared to another car he had driven. the bmw engineer agreed and replaced the entire suspension of the car. struts, shocks, springs, bushes...absolutely everything plus 2 days labour all FOC. Its something ill think about more carefully when changing cars in the future.

been waiting for this thread!! looking really good there mate, what was the fit like on the front lip? (did the bodyshop say anything) the one i've ordered is the latest urethane version....is yours frp? i think the proportions of the veilside v1 are just right...the lip especially. any further mods planned?

25 and its about a £1000 with mods listed. it should be around this mark, anymore than £1500 and its a bad deal...either that or your postcode town is Basra

Cheers, i will get them fitted later. Just waiting for the carbon mirror covers from delsa now to complete the look!

they have just arrived now!! look good, cant wait to get them fitted...any advice? how long would you leave it before driving after applying them? cheers,

i kinda prefer them that way up! nice pic

i know, there all as bad as nova drivers! ...says the 25 year old who spends all his money on modifying his Zed

maybe that was the one! im sure there was pics of an oem lip on a roadster and people thought it didnt look right

i would think the grey coupe is my mate, he works in manc and is always on the m56 at that sort of time. you didnt see the plate did you? v6 ***
