marzman

Steve... PM'd you a few days ago regarding making a booking... any news?

Under 5 secs? No chance. Yep - everything i'd seen/heard/read said 4.9secs 0-60...

Thats mean I have a spare Recaro sticker if you want it Just one? I'll need a pair... Obviously these seats are different, and will be an improvement over oem. The point i am making is that the colour scheme and material, from the pictures, looks like my seats. If i was forking out for new seats, i'd want them to look a bit more exciting, like the red bride seats perhaps. But as you said Ian, you wanted to keep them understated.

? Your Zed must have come with some ltd edition Zed seats if they "look just like" marzman!! Looking sweet Ian, looking forward to the next installment! Not exactly massively different are they pal? Same colour scheme at least.

They look just like my cloth seats, except with some big shoulder bits

Erm... how come this is only just available now, 6 years late? I thought this wasnt possible?

What you need is a paddle shift kit Or an uprated 'valve body' which a lot of auto owners on my350z.com do... its about £1000 but it speeds up the autoshifts.

Yeh, part-ex you always get significantly less on it. Get it sold privately for an additional 12-15%

Good man

For the rarity factor you need a zed. I can go a month without seeing another one on the roads... The interior of the s2k is awfully dated, and the bmw is lets face it, a bmw. As for a TT, i personally have no respect for anything other than the new shape TT-S. I pull up at the lights next to the 20 or so a week i see, and when the young-ish driver looks over, you can see the disappointment in his face that he knows his car aint as good! Boxter is a good shout, but is just a little on the camp side.

Good luck mate! The AC controls look superb when they're done! Tbh though, i hope it goes wrong for you... because if it doesnt then i'll surely try this myself, and it'll definitely go wrong for me - so i need you to put me off

I know my Rex's well buddy. I owned one for long enough! lol i know the diff between a FC and FD Sweet! You'll be the first person i ask when it goes wrong then

Will be there Sat 25th mate - you should come down so i can see your wrap Mark - wont be doing any shows in this... its not much of a drivers car! The welded diff makes it difficult to drive on the road - so much so i want to do it as little as possible

Isnt Nixy's on one line?

Im trying to stay awake... Im supposed to be coding a new chip & pin interface to work with our software, for football club ticket offices!

Ha ha cheers Stan! Yeh i think it is a bit of a bargain... i think we could make money on it after how good we made it look yesterday! We love the plate too... but thats the noise the passenger will be making when drifting! I wont be bringing it to a meet anytime soon though, thankyou very much... although, no joke, i got more looks yesterday in this than i do in the zed

Ho, i thought you were a troll when you first joined this site with that name

Its about time Mike...! Im guessing Sarnie will retire now...?

Ha ha, you might not say that if you could see it... ots not one of the nice 'fd's which people recognise... its the previous gen

Hey all, A lot of you will have seen my thread on getting a sub £1k drift car recently... well i found one on wednesday and i just picked it up today from Birmingham. Me and 2 mates have bought it together - it was a bargain at only £600! We got it back to mine and the 3 of us set to work on it... many hands make light work, i can tell you! Washed, waxed, buffed with a buffer - what a difference that made! Also masked off the rear window and resprayed the surround as it was fading. The bodywork is in very good nick... paint is excellent with only a few little rust spots... but there are plenty of door dings. As for the engine... im not sure how good it is! The car feels quick enough and revs very well - but it is rough as anything, and the exhaust is ridiculously loud - but not in a nice way! So far its set 3 car alarms off! Hopefully before the drift day in 2 weeks im gonna get the wheels stripped and resprayed, as the white wheels date the car quite badly... but the best thing about the car is undoubtedly the pop up headlights... they're awesome! The previous owner seemed to know what he was doing too... engine bay looked well maintained, all the fluids were good, it had a brand new clutch which he'd fitted and the dif has also been welded - which basically means you cant steer at low speeds - as both reat wheels spin at the same speed! Its a weird sensation We've had a propper lads day today - something we've not done in years... all our girlfriends are pi**ed at us too! Oh, and we got the Transformers Angus 6 pack from Burger King on the way home! Brilliant. Here are some pics! Fitted some blue LEDs i had lying about. The real highlight of the day!

Can you fit me in Jay...? Ha ha... no - i washed mine yesterday... it took me 45mins to scrub that front bumper thought!

£120 plus a full tank of fuel - you'll need it. If you need to, sell your gran... you wont regret it!

My surname is Marshall and when we were about 12 we used to watch 'Eerie Indiana', and the main character was called Marshall - but his friends called him Mars. So my mates pinched it from that, and thats all my friends have called me since.

Sorted... im definitely in for 25th July now - but i'll be in my rx7 - not the zed. Steve - i'll pay tomorrow. 1. Marzman +2

I cant believe nobody's mentioned the spider on your right wing mirror I'd be very interested in getting my mirrors done.
