tuck the rear bumper!!!

 

[Christopher]

Please don't put Rotas on it. The wheels you already have a Rays are far better and lighter too.

If you're going to keep it, a drop, Nismo lip, facelift rears and some SSR's would be my target.

 

[Gaz.]

350Z-UK has f**k all in the way of proper wheels. Everyone fits Rotas or worse. Get looking on driftworks, wheel whores, ebay and sites such as SXOC etc.

My friend got some Work Emotion CR-Kais to put on his Z in 18x9 all round for £600. Laughing at that price.

Worst comes to worst, just space out and refurbish the Rays. They look good with a drop.

The only thing you'll scrape lowering it is the bumper lip, the rest is all tucked up a few inches above it.

 

[Christopher]

£600?! How?!

Mental.

 

[Gaz.]

£600?! How?!

Mental.

Seller desperately needed money, zero interest in the wheels, and they needed a refurb. Being the f**king awesome guy I am, I even offered to lend my friend some money to get them if needs be, and of course I've sorted him a refurb out.

Not the widest, but lighter than your face.

Mike, man up. Give it a little drop and see how you get on, I like the wheels you have tbh. Drop + spacers and you're bi-winning

Link to a lip that isn't some body kit monstrosity?

lol, I can't as it scrapes onto the drive already. Spacers will come!

[jenic]

I meant one for sale somewhere

But yeh, that looks good!

 

[Joe#]

Looked great at CSS

 

[ipodsandguns]

Really like that lip. A lot cooler then the nismo one.

 

[jenic]

Thoughts?

Out of stock as anything zed is though

 

[Gaz.]

I wouldn't buy anything from EPR. I got a carbon cooling panel from them, and the fit/quality was shocking.

 

[chrispy.clio]

Looked quite good from the picture, has anybody on the 350z forum bought one?

 

[Adamm.]

looks very nice that my mate has just got a blue one of these sounds soo nice

Only ones I can find are that one, or one from eBay but someone on 350z-uk got one and fitting was shocking.

Then there's a fake varis from the US for about £500 delivered, or close to £800 for the real thing from Japan!

Prices for some stuff are laughable.

BCracing coil overs any good?

 

[ipodsandguns]

Work well in an MX5 format.

 

[Gaz.]

BC - Some swear by them, others hate them. I've never been interested by them.

Genuine Jap stuff is always at a premium, but it's for a good reason

 

[Gaz.]

They're up for sale to fund an S15 (and they'd need ridiculous overfenders to fit, such is the s**t nature of 15 arches.) Buy them Mike.

 

[jenic]

As some now know, the Z is going tomorrow.

Don't think I ever really got on with it, nice enough to drive, decent handling, but just not special enough to be my fun car.

Took one last picture on Friday

[Matthew]

What?!? Lol

Didn't know it was going mate, what's replacing it??

 

[oliver.james]

Nice photo. :approve:

Bring on the replacement! :evil:

 

[Gally]

What is it?

 

[Gaz.]

You better be getting something epic.

 

[Feirny]

 

[Spark]

Didnt know it was going either, what you getting Mike?

 

[Gaz.]

If it's another French tin can you officially have a vagina BTW.

 

[Gray]

I know, I know, I know....

 

[Knight_Rider]

I got rid of my Monaco and got a celica. Worst mistake I ever made. Kept it a month then traded back for an iceberg. I miss the Monaco something chronic but I'm slowly getting the berg the way I want it!

 

[Knight_Rider]

Oh an before you get excited the lass sat on my bonnet is my fiancee.

 

[Matthew]

R26 in silver?

 

[chriscummins7]

R26

 

[Christopher]

Can't say I'm surprised mate.

Looking forward to the replacement.

 

[welshname]

Gutted you didn't get on with it, atleast you realised before you started to spend stupid money to try and make youself enjoy it.

Whats the replacement going to be?

 

[Gally]

Exciiiiite! I want to know naooow!

 

[Gray]

He wanted to be like me

 

[Matthew]

Don't get the term "get on with it" what have you been doing, talking to it nightrider style? Lol

 

[edgeydt50]

Im pretty sure i have been saying this since i got rid of mine. Fantastic car, just not quick enough or enough connection with the car. If i was doing motorway miles that wanted something to every now and again have a blast it would be ideal. Would still give a 370 a go if i had the cash.

 

[lbrench]

I'm out.
