Flex Posted March 8, 2013 Posted March 8, 2013 Oh man, I want this so much, would it be wrong to do red too? I could go blue but then that'd be smurfin. Would love gold but that's probably a little OTT. Quote

What makes your car unique is you and the combination of mods you do. Quote
The Bounty Bar Kid Posted March 12, 2013 Author Posted March 12, 2013 Not enough. Looking at it now it needed one more. But can't tell unless you remove the cover. Followed the instructions. Two light then one medium coats. Quote
Flex Posted March 12, 2013 Posted March 12, 2013 Yeah, I suppose it depends how close you look really, under the hood is it that noticeable? Quote
The Bounty Bar Kid Posted March 12, 2013 Author Posted March 12, 2013 Under the hood, no. If I took it out then looked at it when its light then yeah. Only the top went wrong, towards the back. Glad I did it on my spare first to test it. Quote
The Bounty Bar Kid Posted April 12, 2013 Author Posted April 12, 2013 Just swapped over my winter alloys and tyres for my summer ones. The summer ones have Michelin Pilot Super Sports on the rears and Falken FK452s on the fronts. Just ordered some MPSS for the fronts, will get them fitted next week. ATS £200 each fitted! Also got some mods that I've been buying over the last couple of months being fitted on Tuesday. Watch this space!!! Quote
The Bounty Bar Kid Posted April 17, 2013 Author Posted April 17, 2013 (edited) Ok so yesterday I went to a mate's Garage (www.brooklandskent.co.uk - same place who fitted Peter's (4RE Leather) GTR seats into his SC Zed.. He deals with Porsches, Ferrari, Lamborghini's and other high end cars.He also drives a white Veilside 350z, so I know he loves Zeds. I ordered some parts which I got shipped to him so he could fit them. There is also a metal fabricator right opposite his garage - www.vortecsystems.co.uk So the first order of the day was to fit a QTP Performance Valve, supplied by Driftworks. My car being jacked up at the metal fabricators... Original exhaust midpipe being slaughtered ... Y-pipe placed in position... Slicing of the screamer pipe to create a slash cut... Y-pipe welded on... Screamer pipe created... Y-pipe and screamer pipe attached... Video of exhaust... It hasn't changed the sound of the exhaust when the valve is closed, but it does give me the option to make it RIDICULOUSLY LOUD when I want. So tunnel runs and the such, as my current setup was too quiet for this. It is a daily driver after all. Opened slightly it gives it a lovely little rasp Edited May 6, 2013 by The Bounty Bar Kid Quote
The Bounty Bar Kid Posted April 17, 2013 Author Posted April 17, 2013 The next part was this an Injen Dual Air Long Intake supplied by Tarmac... My Engine Bay... The filters sit behind the bumper... Injen only had one sock, so I'm awaiting the second one to arrive, so both will be covered up. 1 Quote
The Bounty Bar Kid Posted April 17, 2013 Author Posted April 17, 2013 (edited) The last thing was to fit some HEL red brakelines (supplied by Cougar Store) to my car, however we didn't get enough time to do so and also Chris (My mate) didn't have any blue brake fluid as mine had that in the reservoir. However today, I've had 2 Michelin Pilot Super Sports fitted to my fronts. The Falken FK452s needed to be replaced and so now I have MPSS all around. Feels much better Edited April 17, 2013 by The Bounty Bar Kid Quote
