  1. Same can be said to all Zeds that people fit high maintenance FI setups to, Just buy a 400bhp in the first place dont try and bodge a 300bhp car with FI setup that it wasnt designed to have Show me a true rwhp 400hp oem car you can buy for £10K? show me a 400 rwhp 350z bought and built for 10k Bet this could be bought for around that, but even at 11k show me an oem car? http://www.350z-uk.c...-350z-for-sale/ This is going sooooooooooooooo off topic, people have missed stevo's point because Mouthwash isn't here to interpritate and Stevo is digging him self a hole. Lets just call it quits. mouthwash car isnt 400bhp at the wheels so im not diggin any hole especially not with his current boost leak
  2. But whilst your looking how about these 13k of 500bhp Bmw m5 http://www.autotrade...dcars?logcode=p or how about 10k of 450bhp Audi rs6 http://www.autotrade.../audi?logcode=p 15k of 514bhp Merc AMG http://www.autotrade...-benz?logcode=p 14k of 390bhp Masterati http://www.autotrade...g87sb?logcode=p No 350z has been bought and modified to 400 wheel horsepower for 10k all in Yet. i no the supercharger guys are spending about 6-7k all in for about 340-350 at the wheel plus the 7-8k of buying the car your talking 14k for 350whp

  4. i always get Bournemouth and Brighton mixed up Welcome aboard
  5. im curious how you feel about the handling now with the rotas as you hated spacer but youve fitted heavier cast lower offset wheels in turn it must handle worse no?
  6. his specs should fit fine He has 4mm more poke than this 265/40/18 18x10 et3 i dont have tyre sizes but on the rear is R18x12 et-13 He has about 40mm less poke than this He has 5mm more poke than this 19x11 +17 275/30/19 rear Alot of the RPF1 guys are running 18x10.5 et 15 on the rear which sit 10mm futher in but most of the USA guys run a spacer to make it -5 offset
  7. well i know that youll buy a £1.50 bottle of coke from M&s for £4 #InItForTheStatus
  8. i disagree Senario 1 : i want this design/brand of wheel Senario 2 : i want 400bhp ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Fix 1: bolt something that wasn't designed to be there from factory Fix 2: bolt something that wasn't designed to be there from factory Nope. Scenario 1: i want this design/brand of wheel Scenario 2: I want 400bhp Fix 1: Buy wheels with the correct offset to fit. Fix 1.5: Buy wheels with dodgy offset and have to correct in other ways Fix 2: Buy Zed-specific turbo kit Fix 2.5: Buy non Zed-specific kit and have to correct in other ways So every '350z' Turbo and super charger kit has worked 100% out of the box and not required and extra maintenance than the standard car as in my eyes making something more high maintenance and more unrelaible isnt a 'fix'
  9. also i guess ive bodge my car then as im running spacer so my wheels fit Why dont you buy the right wheels you say ? Well when i can get 10 wheels that require a 20mm spacer for £900 or buy 10 wheels that don't require a spacer for £2600 i think i know what ill take

  12. Didst mean to sound harsh , might need mouthwash to translate it to a more understandable way haha Just the whole don't do anything but the normal or do whats known to work mentality is stupid if everyone had that we would still be sat in a cave
  13. no there 100% dual tech as got the interdependent shock and spring on the rear
  14. this car has been custom modfiied with bike parts so a diabled guy can drift far original but made to work
  15. Can i be correct to assume your car is stock by your avatar? The idea of modification and custom car lays behind making what doesnt work well work But can i ask a few questions 1) the wheels he wants dont come in the OEM sizes so how can he get what doesnt exist 2) how many race cars run wider wheels than stock on the regular Hubs/bearings? 3) how are compomotive wheels made for a car if they dont know what car the buyer has , you still have to choose the specs you want so they are as a generic wheel wheel as any other 4) i guess the same goes for engine swaps and custom builds where people fabricate there own suspension etc these people shouldnt do it as the parts used arent 'Designed' to fit 5) Wide low offset wheels given a wider track and allow for a wider tyre make the handling worse? better tell these guys there doing it wrong as there all running wide and lower offset wheels 6) Spacers i guess your worried about them well alot of drifter globally use them and i would say put them through alot more strain than any road car will This is a scion Tc its a fwd new school celica its been converted to rear wheel drive with a gearbox and running gear thats not designed for the car but they made it fit and work, Its had its suspension cut and modified as there are no off the shelf parts so it can get stupid amounts of steering lock its is also running wide and low offset wheels so make it handle better i just do not see where the mentality of it wasn't designed for the car so it must not be fitted as it ruin it comes from as you do not know the plan for the car, go tell bizz his LS3 and running gear isnt designed for the car so he better keep it OEM
  16. this is a on a passat with mixed coolant i dont know what cocktail though
