  1. Drop links give a creaky sound - carl, this is defo clicky rear axles. Very tinny, almost sounds like you're driving on broken glass? I've not bothered fixing it - it causes no promlems long term, its just embarrasing - and you're looking at about £375 for a diy fix if i remember right.
  2. That looks sick!! I love it! How have you done the handles? Any problems with the mechanism on them? Get some closer pics of them up please!
  3. Oulton Park: roast350z ? Darren-B ? marzman (booked and paid for today ) Greekman, are you going to the Oulton Park day too then? Anyone else going? According to the website you get quite a bit of driving time!!
  4. +100 that sounds good to me. Although if you're staying 18" and running 40 profile, you may need to lower the car as the wheels could look a bit swamped?
  5. So do we have to book anything yet SteveH or are you going to let us know when to? Cos im definitely up for this - and dont want to lose my place!
  6. Alright quality! I've been drifting round my local Tesco's every time i go shopping at night recently with the frosts we've had - so hopefully its as easy as that!! Will be going to the Oulton Park day as its only 25miles from me
  7. Hi, i could definitely be tempted by this! However, i have 3 questions: Firstly, mine is a tiptronic zed - is that going to make it significantly harder/impossible for me to enjoy a drift day properly? I can get the back end out very easily and the when in tiptronic mode i have quite a lot of control over the gears, but not 100% - i.e. it wont change down if the revs are too high... Secondly, i have non-brembo brakes - but do have Endless VN pads which are good for fast road - how much brakig is involved on a day like this, as im assuming its not gonna be as heavy as a normal track day...? Im just worried about my brakes going off etc. Any thoughts? Lastly - im guessing we'll need a helmet - can we rent these on the day? Thanks for any info - and im very interested. Chris.
  8. Nice work Sarnie. Now all i need is my own ANPR cam in my front bumper...

    Photoshoot

    Brilliant mate. What camera are you using?
  10. Basically, if i EVER see a Vectra or an Octavia on the motorway i always pass cautiously... i bet they think im crackers when i pull up alongside them, look at them, and then speed off when i know its safe!!
  11. Its not because the 106 and 306 are like go-karts is it? Probably not much tech under there copmpared to a zed? Perhaps its that you come to the edge of mechanical grip much sooner than with the zed? Also i would have thought with FWD cars you feel more feedback throught the wheels? My last 3 cars have been bmw 3-series' and i have to say the zed feels very responsive compared to how they felt.
  12. The second one is my favourite. It looks ace matey.

  15. Possibly a faulty HID ballast??

    CF Eyelids

    I love the eyelids, but yep - just need the bonnet now. I didnt fancy the bonnet route so colour coded my lids instead.
  17. Welcome matey. Get pics of the 300 up...!
  18. Yep Van Der Sar. I cant fault them though - i know the tunnel he crashed in and its ace
  19. +1 - it's a PITA. I gave up and bought a NISMO front bumper in the end! Seriously, do it yourself and remove the bumper. I tried to do it on the first side and it took me about 4 hours on one side without removing the bumper. So i took the bumper off for the otherside and i was all done in an hour!
  20. Soooooo tempting, but im skint. Have just spent 45quid at the Trafford center on a KFC, some bits and bobs and the cinema... damnit i wish i'd stayed in.
  21. Hmmm, i'll lend them my car then when i go on holiday Unfortunately, i've got about £750 of mods to do before my exhaust, so unless they can do me one for 200quid i cant justify it till later in the year...
