Jacko

So for 20 cars, we only get ONE form??? Seems a bit stingy..... But... another thing that should be pointed out, is that whoever enters..... if they get through to the final (and want to have a chance of winning it) then they have to be available for the Sunday pagent so its no good if you only a Sat person only? (shown on the pages linked to).... But I'm fine with Kev doing it etc....... as far as I know he was the only one who said from day one?

MV Augusta..... .gorgeous looking, but don't go that well (speed wise).... But as you say, you'll decide what you want to do in time. Wait till you get out with a load of lads biking together. Its the best crack going......

That is what I would think. But hopefully you'll get the adapter too! Hope your car turns up soon and you can confirm this

No it isnt. You need the ones that are specifically made by Volks for the GT series wheels. I'll get you some pictures when I get a minute, Jacko. Took me a while to track these down, nobody keeps them in stock (or didnt when i bought them) in the US. But they can be sourced. Like I say, I'll get you more details tomorrow. Thanks Baptist, let me know and I'll pm you my email address if you want. Also at the same time, if you know what these things are called then I can start trying to source them..... Thanks all anyway,

Good man! You'll love it.... TBH, its completely different feeling of speed than the Zed, so I'd try to not get rid if you can. Thinking that the bike will replace your cravin for speed etc, ...... in my experience they go hand in hand..... But it will make you a more aware car driver thats for sure!

Yeah I was going to but decided against it considering the amount I've been spending on her.... But thats 3 of us that were bidding on it.... I wonder what the % is of 350z bits sales to members of the forum, that get put up on here

Needs moving to "Wanted" as well.....

I've also just realised that they can't be different thread size as they still gotta screw into the same wheel hub etc..... Durrr

No the nuts themselves have a special allen key type nut I think, but he's giving me the nuts and adapter with the wheels. But these don't lock as such, therefore I'm looking for additional security. But until I actually see them in person, then its difficult for me to visualise what options I have around locking etc. Does that make sense?

That's one expensive Friday afternoon special awaiting breakdown then.....

Guys, Once I get my wheels from Baptist, I'm going to need some "locking nuts" or equivalent for the Volks. I believe from info from Bap, that the Volks come with an allen key type nut that requires a special adapter. Does this mean that the thread etc is different to standard nuts? Anyone got any ideas where I can get some etc?

Liam, seeing as you are staying at a nice hotel, why don't you ring in advance and ask the reception/conceirge for a recommendation for somewhere relevatively casual etc...... ?

Ok well if we aimed to meet at 7pm, then we gotta get to the site and put up tents at least etc. Then we could shoot off to meet up with the "girlie" town posse and go for a meal? We'd have to book for about 9pm or something then wouldn't we? But picking a place might be interesting unless anyone has any insider info?

Chris, I've just taken a look at the map. I'll be taking the scenic route over the tops and joining the M1 at J35a. So if you want, can meet you higher up the M1 and we can travel down together to the meeting point at Donington? Is 6.30pm - 7pm a decent time to aim for at Donington chaps??

Yeah that would be cool if everyone's up for it? We could pitch tents etc, get things sorted in Zed Campville then meet up? Anyone else fancy it? There's quite a few in town etc...... would keep the women happy as well!

Guys, I know this has been mentioned on different threads (that some ended up hijacked) therefore, can we please recap? Who's up for a cruise down to JAE on Friday afternoon?? I will be, but dependent on route, may meet you nearer there. Doesn't make much sense to me to go on the hell that will be the M6 southbound on a Friday night! May go over the tops and meet Chris etc.... But we need list, route and times to meet etc? I'm posting this early to get it sorted. (I've got day off now so no probs with times for me! But anyway, please confirm in your posts..... and anyone else who is up for it? JACKO VAL? LIAM? MIKE?

Decent carbon fibre will defo resist the heat from the exhaust.... Should ask Richie in Aus to make one ?

Hi Rick, Ah you beat our very own Lomoto to it then! As for fitted pics..... Mike has it fitted as he won one about two weeks ago. A search should find it......sure he posted pics....

Whats actually the problem Liam? Look at mine and Val's at the weekend and you'll see ok mate, will do. I like the SR backend the best out of what I've seen so far....

Whats actually the problem Liam?

I sincerely hope you do get it free considering the price of the cars, but typically its just another opportunity for them to rip you off..... Sorry, cynical mode off.

If it was Lxxx UST with some number repeated for the X's then its probably one of Nissan's press fleet. As they use that number plate range.... they move them from car to car.... May have been a tester or just a member of Nissan driving ...

Actually I found that Camskill were by far the cheapest for Falkens on the web, that was until my local tyre place beat it by about £100!

lol.... I'm just giving you some of your own medicine considering you always pull Tim up on it
