Didnt know you were a hairdresser martin? It would be a waste of time imho getting another 2 seater as a second car! You want something like a ford focus or something. Cheap to fix, dont mind it getting battered, and does the job.

What are we gonna do about number plates? Can someone photoshop the club logo on after the pics are uploaded, rather than having smudged out plates?

brilliant pal. Get it spent! Why dont you book a week in New York over christmas, or something like that - thats what i'd do if i won 1500quid.

Hi All! Well, my new wheels finally arrived today, after 7 weeks of waiting!! I found the wheels i wanted, and applied for a credit card that day. However, it took 3 weeks before it arrived and i could use it! Then, i ordered the wheels, and they said i'd have them in 6 days. Well, 4 weeks later they've arrived. After a load of arguments with them (re tyre size, delivery times etc) they finally got here at 2.30pm I fitted them straight after work - well, my mate did - i couldn't do it with my bad back! After being very worried about the offsets and how much it would look like a monster truck, im glad to say its turned out all right The wheel shop said they were +35 offsets all round, but they're actually +20 on the front! So, specs are: 245/35/19 on the front (8.5J +ET20), and 275/35/19 on the rear (9.5J +ET35), with Falken 452's all round. As for weight, the rears did feel heavier but the fronts were approx the same. Lastly, they're badged as Wolfrace, but they're actually Ruff Racing. Anyway - feel free to flame me for buying cheap-ass wheels, but i love them. £940 is still a lot of money to me, and i wasnt prepared to pay any more than that Look at the offset improvement over standard JDM's. My mate Tom who fitted them is driving!

just make sure you get a firm quote before you commit to buy - im paying £2.5k. No accidents, just dont like me.

What you take me and Maccaman off for??

Good luck Stan

I've never searched for it before but just have - sounds like our problem. We need to re-grease the anti-roll bar drop links http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic ... g&start=15

Mate, mine does exactly the same thing. I dont think its the clicking rear axle issue, as mine does that separately. This is a very distinct creaking noise, which i get 9 times out of 10 when reversing onto my drive. And as you say, a slight hill seems to make it worse. I dont think the heat has anything to do with it... apart from you might have your windows open now when driving?? ...It drives me nuts, but i've not had it looked into - sorry. Chris.

I loved the runner taking the guys drink.

Painting them silver. Got black wheels with a chrome lip coming this week hopefully, so going to go with a black & silver theme across the car - so will be tinting the windows later in the summer.

cheers guys.

Hi Guys, Im going to be painting my calipers this week probably - what should i clean them with first?? Im not gonna be removing the calipers or pads etc, so it needs to be a paint on cleaner... ...and before you all start - i've got JDM brakes so im not doing anything sacrilege!

Cheers Jamie, Keep me posted. Chris.

I'd be up for the saturday - its my birthday Sunday and am going for an all you can eat chinese - not missing that for the world!

Couldn't agree more - it looks like a million bucks! btw - if you're looking to sell the spacers after you've removed them, please pm me with a price - i may be in the market for some. My cheapo wheels with +35 offsets should be arriving on tuesday.

Love it. Apart from the wider kidney grills. Makes it look a bit like a 6-series.

Thats ace. Is that at the motorshow in London? I'll be there next week

No problems from our supplier with the falkens, had 6 sets this week. Phil - PM Sent.

YES! Thats ace!! I hope it goes well for you mate...

Come on - noddy lights - give us more info!! I've attached my noddy lights to my low beam headlights, so they come on at the first stage of headlight - just tapped into the wires.

Nah, i feel for you. Not that anything like this has ever happened to me.

Just getting the Bridgestones on the Rays worn down a bit more so they are just right for some track work of course Good answer

Can you explain to me how its possible to have wheels in your possession for 2 months - and not fit them???? i'll be out there at night, in the rain fitting mine if i have to be...!
