  1. Can you do extensions and my nails? Always wanted them in hot pink
  2. Ey hang on a minute, you're after a spoiler and you don't even have a zed to put it on yet?
  3. Go on, admit it, you had some curling tongs until you bought the r34 Personally I have a room, with only haircare products and nail glitter.
  4. First one seems to be on forums and has proper contact info so i'm guessing fairly safe. Second, a quick google reveals they're in dunstable and also on forums so fairly safe. Or you could ask these guys when they might get one in stock. http://www.blitz-uk.co.uk/contactus.aspx It is the only spoiler I like and evo-r on my350z did good replicas, just they didn't have such a good rep iirc.
  5. http://shop.edoperformance.co.uk/blitz- ... -3231.html Maybe that? Or this, but i don't see any contact details. http://www.amber-performance.co.uk/sect ... 22&xPage=1
  6. Rubbish that Damn you Ian, looks really nice and titanium too, is the r34 going on a diet? Need video though
  7. Good thing that it's not a nismo backbox going by the images in the exhaust tips thread then
  8. Seen nearly 40mpg on the zed, down a hill and not touching the gas. You just have to never go near the gas pedal is all Realistically, you can get 30ish down straight nsls, a roads and motorways.
  9. as you say, the best in a domestic situation Something like a gaggia classic or rancilio silvia for the machine, and a mazzer super jolly for the grinding (from the bay of e) would be the best bet for a domestic situation Tamping is also quite important, so a heavy metal tamper is a good idea. Grinders = more important than machine Of course fresh beans are a must too, from somewhere like hasbean.
  10. Does it have to be a bean to cup machine or are you interested in getting fresher/better coffee?
  11. But when it's been mapped, what else has significant potential? I'd rather start with something that is NA and then whack a turbo on it. It's not exactly a big engine in the first place. The vette stew has posted looks . I can't see a gtrs bay being anything but plastic. Yanks also don't seem to have that nonsense about pedestrian collision, another pc stupidity.
  12. Here I was thinking porsche drivers had no soul
  13. What tuneability? The corvette gets another 100-150 horses just with cams and exhaust. Stick a tt kit on and thousands of horses. It's all about build quality, they made a device which is one off use. It's stupid. Vette is also a brand new car, they're still making them. The carbon one with carbon ceramic brakes. May be a basic design, but it clearly works, gtr didn't compete at the ring, then comes the viper (yet another ancient design), which again whoops everything else. Don't buy this newest tech is best tech argument.
  14. Maybe not, but it appears to be a completely stupid car and imho lacks the character and gorgeous sound of the vette. Not to mention the tuneability. Ekona, presumably they don't have to import parts too often and besides I end up importing most parts from the usa anyways already People would rather have silly cars like the gtr under the pretence they're built well, how that can be the case with the passenger collision system and transmission issues it had i'm not sure.
  15. Corvette z06 doesn't look too expensive to run, there was a lingenfelter too on ph which looked quite tasty. Nissan gtr is a false budget supercar beater, but I bet the vette isn't.
  16. You don't only drive it on rollers do you?
  17. I guess it depends on the compound and how you define sensible. The m3 had vreds and they lasted maybe 8k of sensible driving, the r35 has a huge amount of power and not that wide wheels iirc, surely it couldn't last much longer even with the power being split?
  18. i'm glad you don't do sums for my bank Depreciation and tyres, tax, yeah, that would put the equivalent on the 350z as like maybe 1/5 or less?
  19. No, I'd have a corvette and i'd bet it would be more reliable and cheaper to run. Then again, I wouldn't be stupid enough to take out that size a loan on a car with such high running costs.
  20. Yes, it's normal. More like a sucking sound.
  21. I was looking at the Motordyne Shockwave the other day, I currently have the ART pipes and XYZ with HFC... I find it strange that, unless you go full decatted, you have to use the stock cats or non-Motordyne HFCs as the XYZ+HFC won't fit with the y-pipe back parts of the Shockwave. A bit annoying really considering the front, y-pipe part, of the Shockwave is the same as the XYZ. What the eckin peck, that's crazy. I thought the whole point was that the modules were interchangeable and all their stuff actually worked together. Doh. Well, if you do get it, i'd love a listen. Tell me about it! If you compare the middle section of the Shockwave vs the XYZ pipes below it in the following link you'll see that the x-pipe section of the Shockwave is in the same location as their race cat and the exhaust is dual after that so I can't see how you can use the Shockwave without normal cats or berks or something! http://www.motordyneengineering.com/ind ... a944dac94e It's strange though, could've sworn I saw another design for the shockwave without that resonator next to the xyz pipe. Would be interesting to get mark's input. You also can see the shockwave on youtube vs the shockwave tdx v2, both true duals supposedly but imo the shockwave true dual sounds better than the tdx v2 shockwave, what's the difference?

  23. Still haven't found it Though I wasn't keen on nismo with berks, still may want motordyne shockwave though.
