Re: dmallett's 421'd monaco
What seats you got now Phil? And you sat in the seats at an eye meet when i had them in my car, best seats ever!
problem solved, got some nimbus heat shield in the garage also that can be fixed to the stainless if it does still get warm.

Disrespecting my filter? These filters have seen better gains than the ktec ones ill have you know! This way its much more open to cold air, compared to my old set up on the ph1. Note the filter
As for seats, i would if i could but Lewis is in the process of getting his house so i doubt that would work for him! If my work load hits 60+ hours for a few weeks then maybe i can afford them lol

Pikey heat shield time!
As i broke the lock former at work folding stainless and riveting it together had to suffice. Ended with this in about 5minutes,
Added some nimbus heat shield to the under side for that extra bit of cover,
Then fitted it so it cleared the rad pipes so it wont damage anything, few bolts holding it, unsure how long it will last but its not like it was hassle to fit or if its actually making any difference as the cars still missing two wheels!

Re: dmallett's 421'd monaco
Back on all four wheels now, it even got a clean amazing what £6 gets you!
Show the rear width with the 10mm spacers,
Just waiting on the 25mm spacers for the front, then its MOT time followed by a service.
Hopefully most agree with me on the colour and think its passable, not quite what i was hoping for but for the small amount of money and time it will do!

Re: dmallett's 421'd monaco
Car looks great on those rusty wheels mate.
I blame his s**t plugs for his previous awful result, no doubt his filter did help, however, not 10bhp help, lets be honest! lol.
Love u btw,,, also Strongbow is great.

Re: dmallett's 421'd monaco
FK 25mm spacers added to the front,
Nice and grubby in there
Think it will be staying at the height it is for now as it doesnt seem to rub anywhere on all 4 corners which is nice!
The car feels nice on the road and pretty planted so im happy with it. Compared to the ph1 its only missing the Whiteline RARB and solid topmounts, then its pretty much setup identically!
MOT and tracking on Wednesday, managed to knock the tracking out somehow in the snow

Re: dmallett's 421'd monaco
I do, ive owned 9 sets of spacers in the past year.
350z took 25mm rear , 20mm front. Looked awesome I must admit

Re: dmallett's 421'd monaco
I'm tempted just to spray the front grills satin black tbh, then they'll be like newish and stay nice for a while. It's just to cold to paint stuff atm

Good read mate, thanks - and the car's looking great. I think you've shamed me into getting my headlights sorted out once I get it back. They are awful at the moment due to the scratches and blemishes.

Re: dmallett's 421'd monaco

Couldnt resist a snow shot ive also got a slow puncture in my front wheel

Re: dmallett's 421'd monaco
Way more snow than we've got here!
Why do you like the spacers? I know Cs is nuts for them but I've always figured that whilst they make the car more surefooted when cornering does that not dampen the initial turn in and take away some of the twitchiness? Never driven a spacered car in anger!

Re: dmallett's 421'd monaco
Looks mainly? I just like the way the car feels running spacers, the extra width makes it feels more stable imo. As for the initial turn in that doesnt really feel as if it changes that, increased castor is the only thing thats ever really changed the way the car drives (on the ph1) the turn in feels so sharp then.
Spacers arent probably the best way to improve handling i guess for the money. On the 350z i fitted them purely to make it look wider ha
And yes im rubbish at describing things in writing with out waving my arms about doing driving impressions, ill save that for CSS
