  1. As some of you may already know, I'm regretfully selling my Zed. I'd prefer it stayed with a Zed enthusiast, so my forum asking price is £14k. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Matt-White-2007-NISSAN-350-Z-3-5-V6-313-GT-2dr-Roadster-original-colour-Orange-/270844837220?pt=Automobiles_UK&hash=item3f0f9c3d64 PM me for more information. Taras P.S. Apologies for a dry ad but I'm not happy with my decision to sell. Sad time...
  2. Now need front wing as well as bonnet. Must be silver and in good condition. Colour code doesn't matter. Thanks
  3. Exactly my words Graham!!! but in Matt
  4. Hahaha. What have you started here? Silver with a tint of pink kinda works for him. It was really nice of you two to have popped in.
  5. Thanks mate, my heart hurts and my mind questions now..
  6. And you cannot imagine how well it worked
  7. Ian, I might have gotten to the bottom of B17 colour matching dilemma. Many paint places have B17 listed as a base coat (your standard primer->base coat->lacquer scenario). The specialist we now use for our paints configures B17 as a three stage paint. Meaning there's a pearl coat after the base coat! This changes everything. I'll keep you posted on the progress matey

    Front end...

    Col, top looking front end! Car looks like it has been designed it 2010! This should be the most wanted mod on Zed's face

    Side skirt issues

    Ray, I'm sure this is for the best. You will love the how modified chargespeed skirts will complement the bumper The fit will amazing too! Will email you another sneak preview when they arrive
  10. Longs story behind the Orange bits in the first place! Don't want to sell the car now....
  11. we can offer a clear film wrap from Hexis which protects the paint work often used for track users to protect burning tar and rubber which flicks onto the front.

    RT-P Hall Of Fame

    Yep. Bobby is the proud owner of the black and white one. It's actually wrapped in a pearl white carbon so it looks slightly purple-ish in the sun light. Very classy IMO. Real carbon rear and front lip and also film tinted fronts. Buddy you still got the spoiler with us you know. And what's up with the X5?
  13. We've been doing quite a lot of repair work on all sorts of cars but our favourites are always the ones which get the full make overs.
  14. We're contracted to not talk about it.... http://www.civinfo.com/forum/general-di ... civic.html
  15. Yes but 3 is best for cooling breaks as it is specifically directs the air to the insides of the wheels. Strange that some of you choose 3 because though it looks the best, it is also the worst at being a front splitter because it produces the most drag. You see that's the problem of making something which does one thing and then making it serve another purpose.

    Dodgy Carbon?

    I see let me see what I can do.

    Dodgy Carbon?

    Those are all things on my shopping list but haven't found anywhere that fills me with confidence to buy as yet. I totally understand that. You and many others in multiple forums alike especially after seeing so many rouge traders come and go.
  18. here's a mini write up from CW racing after various simulations from everyone's input. Design 1. simply a flat plate. Produced some down force. Would be the most easy to produce and fit. Design Design 2. similar to design 1 but with an angled tail. Produced approximately 2x the down force of design 1 and with the benefit of drag being reduced by 1/2. Design 3. a very complicated design which was influenced by comments from members on forums. The piece would be very complicated to make and mount due to its shape. It does however produce over 4x the down force of design 1. negative point though is it also produces 3x the drag. Design 4. a design that id a hybrid of design 1 & 3. not the simplest to make but much easier than design 3 and should be simpler to fit. It produces 3x the down force of design 1 and only a fraction more drag. Design 1. CFD shows quite simple flow due to its simple design. The swirly bit behind the wheel is the wake from the tyre. Design 2. bit more going on. More lower pressure under the car as there is much more blue. Also selected flow lines through the rotating wheel. You can see how the wheel pumps the air out like a jet. Design 3. lots of 3d flow on this one. You can still see the swirly bit behind the wheel. Also areas where the flow separates away from the strakes in the channel. Also an area in front of the tyre. Design 4. Lots more laminar flow. Still with the wake behind the wheel.

    Dodgy Carbon?

    All input is taken into consideration and the things I would like to consider to make in carbon becasue I think there is still a demand for it are: OEM replacement mirrors (not covers but actual replacements) B Pillars battery cover brake fluid cover Engine cover (with or without the nissan badge and V6 indent?) cooling panel (bus single or twin inlet?) Q: When you say surround, did you mean the surround round the battery & Brake covers? Top L&R plastic covers? I just want to point out that I'm still researching and it's physically not possible or logical to make everything. What I do want to do is do more research and to hear some of your feedback good or bad about these existing products out there so get a heads up on what to look out for or mistakes not to be repeated when we make them. For now can some one post up the best prices available on these products so I can see if I can either match it or beat it or not? This would help me a lot. Thanks Ray

    Dodgy Carbon?

    My thoughts exactly! But we obviously cant do everything and also there still has to be decent demand for it otherwise it's pointless for us to make it rite.

    Dodgy Carbon?

    same for me! After doing some number crunching, I believe I can offer this lip in carbon for £280 plus postage in the UK. How does that sound?
