  1. ^^ Yeah thanks for that TT. Exactly. My old man has had loads of BMW's over the years and he is one of the calmest, most polite & courteous drivers I know (always indicates, uses correct lanes, correct speeds, doesn't tailgate etc etc). He's probably the reason why I'm so anal about the way I drive at times and get annoyed at people who don't indicate or spend their time hogging lanes, tailgating etc. I know a lot of us, hopefully mainly in jest, have a go at particular vehicle drivers but at the end of the day it's the person inside the vehicle that's causing the problem being an ar**hole & not the particular type of vehicle that they're driving making them an ar**hole.
  2. Didn't see this coming but I know it's nice to have a change. Good luck with the new motor Adrian.
  3. Ryan I've given Marco a heads up that you're interested. You can also send him a PM (private message) ~ If you hover your cursor arrow over his username then you'll see the "send message" icon pop up.
  4. 24 Yeah you're right, ...close enough though.
  5. Welcome aboard Adam. Enjoy the Zed.
  6. Welcome aboard. Zed looks great btw, ...lovely in black.
  7. Moved to the correct area ZZZeBady. Think you've got your answer already though.
  8. You're only 25? ...and now you have an R35 GTR Parello? I mean if you wanted us all to hate you surely there are cheaper ways. Seriously, congratulations though.
  9. ^^ That maybe your only sensible option. I think on an 8J rim size 245 is about the maximum width you could fit or would want to fit safely. See here: http://www.tyresizecalculator.com/charts/tire-width-for-a-wheel-rim-size-chart 350Z wheel specs for OEM alloys: http://www.350z-tech.com/wiki/index.php?title=Wheel_Specifications Some other tyre related calculators: http://www.willtheyfit.com/index.php?width=225&aspect=45&diameter=18&wheelwidth=8.0&offset=30&width2=245&aspect2=40&diameter2=19&wheelwidth2=8.00&offset2=40&Submit=Calculate#content http://www.rimsntires.com/specspro.jsp
  10. Do you know.... Are the alloys the same width? (E.g. 9J) Are the alloys the same offset? (E.g. ET20) If so then why not put alloys with the decent tread on the front and then change the rears to a wider tyre like a 265 or 275 width? This is of course providing that the alloy width & offset will allow for the wider tyre on the rear without any rubbing on the arches. For example, my old alloys which were Rotas had an offset of ET20 both front & rear. The front alloys running the 245/35/19 tyres were 9.5J whereas the rear alloys running the 275/35/19 tyres were 10.5J. This set up was on a standard height 2003 350Z and caused no slip issues or rubbing issues. I think not having a staggered set up is most likely your problem.
  11. So you're not running a staggered set up anymore then? I used to run 19's on my old Zed ~ front 245/35/19 and rear 275/35/19 ~ never had any slip light issues. I'm guessing it will be down to a combination of not running the staggered set up & possible the higher profile although the latter may not be the problem.
  12. Came for the women too, ....disappointed.
  13. Your Zed being a 2004 will be a DE variant yes but I can't help you on the prices sorry and tbh this thread is probably better in the "wanted section" so I've moved it for you. The people you really need to speak to about this are zmanalex & Emperor Tuning, both of whom do good quality used parts for the Zeds & also know the Zeds very well. You could also try Clark Motorsport.

  14. Sorry to read that Quinster. I've had it done once to a previous car of mine & so has my Dad in the past. Can't believe what some people think is acceptable behaviour for whatever screwed up reason they think makes it justifiable.
  15. ^^ That does look like a funny game to be honest. Probably best played whilst drinking alcohol.
  16. That's definitely typical of Polyphony Digital.
  17. Ekona I seen you complaining under another video but I didn't know which way you preferred so i actually done this to try and please you but I must of got it wrong í ½í¸ž This may help. On a positive note though your Zed sounds great Loggy.
  18. Let me guess, ...."Where is the locking wheel nut key?"
  19. Aahhh really!?? Well that's a load of c**p. Sorry but I'd rather they didn't release anything apart from the main game. Didn't buy the last prologue game either so won't be buying that one. I'll just wait for the proper full fat game, ...even if it isn't until 2017.
