  1. Theres no way you can adjust it by just folding it over & feeding it through without breaking something
  2. Took some pics of it You can see the buckle is facing the wrong way so when you belt up it goes like this And it twists at the top

    Its the main serpentine belt. The one that goes around the alternator, power steering & crank

    I completley agree with you both The Maser would/will always be a short term option. If I do get one then I only plan to have it for around 18months before moving onto a GTR I can't really do a lot until the supercharger kit sells anyway

    Never really considered a 370, Just thought they might be to much of the same as the 350 - but having seen a few modified examples I am starting to come around to them so it might be worth a test drive. The only Aston in my budget is a DB7, which I'm not a fan of - I'd want a DB9 or V8 vantage if I was getting one After speaking to some people on the Maserati forum, they reckon that the car I drove will need a clutch very soon which could explain the jerkyness of the box. Its not really the box that put me off, I've owned a car with paddle shifts before & that box was much much slower than the Maser box. I just can't put my finger on what I didn't like - as an overall package I liked it & I wouldn't be disappointed if I bought one - I just didn't love it as much as I love the Z
  6. I'm just down the road in Caerphilly. I've got an 03 Low mileage car for sale with Rays
  7. LE37s were discontinued ages ago RE30s would be my choice right now
  8. I can't remember if the time attack versions were lighter than the standard CE28s, I'm pretty sure they were which is what I had
  9. Not with anyforce no. Did hit a badger once at about 60mph though
  10. Want a shovel to help you dig?
  11. Rays are about 18lbs each. My CE28s were nearly as light as my Rays I think they were around 19/20 lbs 20kg being light weight wheels Halfords specials being lightweight

    Because its one of the most epic sentences ever posted on this forum ..........and its been paraphrased in my piccie of some duckies here viewtopic.php?f=13&t=48717 Ian stop being a king tard and get a TVR. If your going to get an amazing looking, ludicrously fast, totally unreliable car the TVR Tuscan has to be at the top of everyones list. That Mazza is dull You'll be bored in 5 mins flat. But in the TVR I'll be dead in 5 minutes flat

    Both Got roughly 25k to play with but would prefer to spend less to leave some funds for mods No real requirements, just has to be loud, cool & not very practical My shortlist is R34 GTR, Maser Gran Sport, 911 of some sort (they all much of a muchness ) Extended shortlist has included - RX7, Impreza, Evo 9, M3, R32 GTR, R33 GTR, NSX, Noble, Supra TT & a Tuscan Not that I'm indecisive or anything
  16. I was online Are they registered users or do they include bots aswell?

    Gran Sports are pretty reliable (or so I've been informed ) Parts are quite reasonable, they are common with a few Alfas so much cheaper to buy the Alfa part Viper is out of budget, Maserati is already at the top end of it

    Running is cheap after a sc Z or R34 Gets about the same fuel consumption Servicing & parts are a bit more. mods are quite reasonably priced though Would love a Vette but out of my budget

    Still love it I actually prefer it Its comfortable, quiet, I'm not spending my entire time looking at gauges & listening for noises, I can hear the radio, I can actually have a conversation now I miss the extra power but its a much more bearable car to drive now. That being said, I'm pleased that I did it & I don't regret it for one minute and TBH I'd probably do it again given the chance
  20. I use FK1000p on mine
