MattMe Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 I need to get me some of those 5 spoke Nismo wheels... Some nice cars, chaps. I like the splash guards too - any idea where I might be able to pick some up, and how they are fitted? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didnt use the car for track racing, it was modded for show car status. The hardest part was driving it from reading where I had the kit put on to Romford without spacers, looked horrible with sunken wheels especially in public lol. But once I got to the garage they got to work and the car was in there for a week upgrading all that was necessary to install the spacers and reduce possible problems. If I was using this car for performance then I would never of added spacers. But then as everyone knows Im a crap driver so I just stick to looks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zedrush Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 forgive me but couldn't you just get wide enough wheels with proper offsets? with the amount of money you presumably spent on it, what's the point of putting spacers on it? too many people on this forum forget that spacers IMO should be a last resort, really... especially if you get new wheels anyway! It had to be Gt-s wheels, tried other wheels didnt have the same look, wasnt going to compromise, even when I ruined the anodize I was abouts to buy a second set of GT-S wheels for summer and use these for my winter wheels and I couldnt get the big enough offsets in this wheel to cover the distance hence why had to go down the last resort. And glad to say I pulled it off imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole reason for modifying a car is for it to be individual and tailored to your own personal preferance. Hats off to you I say sir!!!

I was sick with envy when I first saw them, they are stunning, he was such a lucky man to get them Andy I hate you, you should of given them to a more needier person... aka me really cant wait to see what it looks like now, azure and black are my two fav colours with this kit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M350ZB Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 Andy had the same rear as me in this pic, but no over-fenders its the veilside v3 rear bumper maz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 As above, it is the Veilside V3 kit but I sent the exhaust surrounds off to the States to be carbon wrapped. You can't quite see it in this photo but it is the best I have. The seats as Jay said, are Cobra Misano's with custom Bride subframes. Here are my seats before and after..... The subframes were Brides with some custom runners made to fit th Cobras Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maz77 Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 thanks lads. those 2 issues are bugging me really. the rear bumper and the seats. I have some mad plans for the back ends just need to see various bumpers. also the seats are doing my heading specially because my car is a roadster. I want to change them but I have to take in consideration the passenger seat movement as the roof goes down. I dont know if any one on here with a soft top have done that before or not and I fancy something more supportive than the GT seats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
