Next on the ever expanding list has got to be the Nismo mats.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clean the seats or rub your hands on some grease before you next drive and the reds will match perfectly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Treated her to a little wash today after the new shoes the other day. Wife thinks im a lunatic now though, going round with nail clippers are cutting off the moulding nipples from the sidewalls Love the look with the wider MP4S, more rim protection and fuller look. Here's to the next 12 months and £1000's in extras She's looking good there Willsy. Coming up to a year of ownership myself next month. So, the new boots - am I reading the rear tyre wall correctly, 305s??!! What size is on the front, the standard 245s? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Yeah 305 rears and 265 on the front, but do not go 305 rears if you have anything more than a 10mm spacer, they will rub on the arch trims under compression, even if not lowered :/ So now I need to get the spacers off the rear and have them machined down to 10mm 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My factory size 245 Potenzas on the front look "stretched" as the tyrewall falls inwards from the rim quite noticably, as if they actually need to be wider. Your wider PS4s look perfect on the front with the vertical wall. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your wider PS4s look perfect on the front with the vertical wall. They definitely offer better rim protection too. I found with the Bridgestones they looked too narrow too, as if they should have been 265 as standard but they couldn't find any Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well the list is long, but thinking Nismo mats, carbon roof cap, hose kit, Nismo mirror glass, been looking at some splash guards on Torqen, but not sure if they fit the Nismo ? And I want some 3/4 glass louvres but want them in carbon but struggling to find them, Torqen are on the case though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Willsy1980 Posted March 18, 2022 Author Share Posted March 18, 2022 Gave her a good post salt clean today, so had to pop out and play with the camera on the new phone. I cannot confirm nor deny if the TC was turned off briefly as we were leaving...... 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
