  1. Not keen on the hangers, i'll keep looking. If anything else pops up let me know
  2. I don't want carbon as it will be painted, so doesn't make sense to spend the extra I could be interested in that. My brother owns a bodyshop so if it could be made to fit that shouldn't be a problem. I'd have to ask him. Do you have a pic or a link to a pic to see if i like it? I'm in no rush so if you can get a pic when you get a chance that would be fine.
  3. I'm looking at putting one on at the end of the month. I already have a Nismo rear spoiler so i'm looking for something to go up front. I've seen the one Tarmac Sportz currently has advertised for £125 but they aren't my cup of tea, they look like they stick out far too much (I know loads of people love them). So i'm after something more subtle. If anyone has any others or any suggestions, let me know Cheers EDIT- This is the one i'm after, but i don't fancy buying it off that seller after reading feedback. If anyone knows where i can get one can you let me know. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Nissan-350z-Nismo-FRP-Front-Splitter-lip-spoiler-skirt-350-z33-n1-/271007690697?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item3f19512fc9
  4. 100 would be for geom setup, not just wheel alignment.
  5. Disagree, a HR has a fair chunk more power than a DE plus a better base to tune from. I thought the HR was 300bhp? happy to be corrected as i'm still learning about these 309bhp or 313ps. Ah a decent jump in power then. I thought I read there is more weight in the later cars that's negates the extra power, is that right?

  7. Hmmm Manaro looks nice, i've had a little look at these before but they were too much money, they are the right side of 10k now.
  8. I wouldn't by anything over 10 years old, (unless it was something special 996 etc) too much to go wrong/repair with over 10year old ancillaries etc. I've been down that road before, and i'm not into classics. A few of the cars i've had in the past have been high maintenance/running costs, which i don't mind as i do look after my cars regardless of how long i have them.
  9. "Grab life by the horns" well done mate, lifes too short. Although that's a bit above my impulse buys :D
  10. A mate has a c63 with the brabus upgrade, they definitely aren't bullet proof its been in for an engine rebuild under warranty. "Apparently" a mistake in the factory with a piston ring was found once it had been stripped, that took 2 years to show? More likely a failure that they didn't want to admit to. Beast of a car though. Welcome along :-)
  11. I've got a bit of a love/hate relationship with fwd cars. Once the cold/rain is here they do my head in with understeer/wheelspin, but with more and more capable/powerful cars coming along in budget they are worth a second look.
  12. Thought about these as they are starting to come down in price, just a bit reluctant as power is not that great. I do like the look of them though. Monaro is an interesting one, would like a drive in one first. I've got a bit of a soft spot for the exige so i would feel like i was settling for second best with the elise. I'm up for a gt car not just outright performance. As i said earlier i will definitely have a look at these when the time comes. Some good suggestions here, keep them coming. I just want to add that i'm not one of the more financially well off, i've worked my way up with each car and spent alot of time saving, hence the reason i wouldn't just turbo/supercharge the zed as it's too much money to lose for me. I'm just a genuine petrolhead who likes cars in general. Every car i've owned i've enjoyed it for what it is. My current car, the 350z came up on the off chance, and after coming out of a 400bhp evo8 i can honestly say it is a very good car and i'm glad i bought it. It's not the fastest thing on the road but it is a very good engine/chasis. it's been a while since i've owned a standard car that i can say that about.
  13. Definitely a few i had overlooked so thanks. Should make the next change a little more interesting
  14. ?? please enlighten me cost wise as i wouldn't want to be stuck with one come sale time. I wouldn't want to spend the money doing mine
  15. I haden't realized these had come down so much, definitely worth a look.
  16. I don't know why but i pictured something else in my head. Can this be had for under 10k? I would definitely have a look at one of these if i could find a decent specced one
  17. I wouldn't spend 10k on an old car, it just doesn't make financial sense to me. They can become money pits after a certain age, so counts out the usual supra, skyline etc
  18. sk2 not for me, e35 m3 evo too old, e46 m6 I havent looked at one so i'll have nosey, supra too old. scooby had loads, 650i too old, e55 amg old mans car, audi s4 wife has an audi a4 so don't want 2
  19. Stupid phone, sorry. I'm on the pc now. Post edited
  20. I tend to get through alot of cars. I get bored very quickly, but I also don't like to throw thousands at a car modding it just to lose out come sale time. I have had alot of performance cars and alot of normal cars. just in the last 18 months iv'e had, 2003 Honda civic type r, 2004Saab 93 turbo(modded), evo8 (400bhp), and the zed 2003 uk gt. Over the last few years ive has 5 Subarus, a few family cars and a few inbetween So what's around that's worth having in the future that is under 10k? When i get bored i tend to go back to a car i had previous but a better or more heavily modded version, but i'm sure there are performance cars out there that i overlook or just don't come to mind. Lets hear some suggestions
