Cookbot Posted December 21, 2009 Posted December 21, 2009 Looking at getting some new alloys for the light silver Z and can't really decide on which colour I prefer. The silver ones do look good, but I'm strangely drawn to the gun metal and matt black ones. What do you say? haven't managed to find any good photos either. The other choice is the exhaust. The japspeed K1 looks quite sound and the blue flame sounds nice or I could have one made by Exhausts UK, but it would cost a bit more. Has anyone had any dealings with these? I'm always open to ideas too. I would ideally like one that doesn't sound over powering, just a nice 'tuned' sound will do me fine. I ideally would like a Nismo, but wouldn't we all! Does anyone have anything to say on the motordyne lower collector mrev thingy mabobber, as i've already got the spacer. Thanks, ya'll Cookie Quote
ATTAK Z Posted December 21, 2009 Posted December 21, 2009 I'm well pleased with Exhausts UK viewtopic.php?f=62&t=30375 I also got my wheels done the colour you are considering - GM on GM - so Ill post pics when the weather gets better Quote
martinmac Posted December 21, 2009 Posted December 21, 2009 The one easy solution to your problem is getting out to a few meets and seeing whats on offer. Quote
Cookbot Posted December 21, 2009 Author Posted December 21, 2009 Been having a look on the East mids page, but everything seems to have dried up, probably because it's Xmas! Will keep a look out though. Quote
martinmac Posted December 21, 2009 Posted December 21, 2009 Dont worry, it will all start up again soon. I think everyone in Chesterfield has a Zed too. Quote

3FIDDYZ Posted December 21, 2009 Posted December 21, 2009 MREV only works on an revup car (not sure whick one you got..) Buy the blueflame or get a custom one, far better than the K1's. Blueflame quality will be far better. Wheels.... Best place to look http://my350z.com/forum/350z-colors/245 ... ilver.html loads of options, and there are loads of custom wheel options too! Quote
terribleone Posted December 21, 2009 Posted December 21, 2009 Interesting post...I had similar problems when trying to find wheels to put on my MR2. Everyone said dark wheels on a silver car, but I can't help feeling that it is so overdone now that it almost looks a bit tacky and chavvy! I never got around to buying any more, so my car's been silver on silver since...tbh I think it looks much more subtle, understated and a bit more classy... Quote

DoogyRev Posted December 22, 2009 Posted December 22, 2009 I was thinking of the very same dilemma just the other evining. Of all the wheels I have looked at I keep being drawn back to silver, maybe be boring but I think it suits the car colour better IMO Quote

Digsy Posted December 22, 2009 Posted December 22, 2009 Go dark! Oh and if you don't want an overpowering exhaust avoid the K1. Quote
