RisingPower Posted October 30, 2010 Author Share Posted October 30, 2010 Nice. Needs dropping now though.Are you just doing the rear bumper,think it will look odd without some sort of side skirt aswell. Roads are really cack round here, doubt I can drop it. The Y pipe was scraping at stock height Well, I was thinking rear bumper, nismo v2 replica front. You'd also be surprised, I've seen the chargespeed w/out sides and it looks not bad at all imo. With sides, currently they're very low as is, I just have this picture in my head of the Z being beached on a bump, rocking back and forwards Here we go, chargespeed rear, stock sides: http://my350z.com/forum/exterior-and-in ... nyone.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BulletMagnet Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 If you don't wanna take them off now, at least promise us that they come off at the first sight of snow laying. Think of the increased surface area you now have to slide out of control on...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing that scares me is salt Besides, I thought the z was meant for sliding? Doesn't also feel like so much of a lardass when it does as the M3 did I also enjoyed sliding in the M3 when it was snowy, twas fun trying to park in a whole new way up a hill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RisingPower Posted October 30, 2010 Author Share Posted October 30, 2010 Also, bear in mind, I've been driving on budget tyres for the last... 8 months Those are... interesting in the wet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BulletMagnet Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 Last winter I came off a slip road on the "skinnier" Rays and span out heading towards a ditch, not the fun kind of sliding at all. Did a 270 degree spin and had no choice but to ride it out, thank fully I missed the ditch and the police were at the top of the slip road and came to help.

RisingPower Posted October 30, 2010 Author Share Posted October 30, 2010 Came off a slip road on the "skinnier" Rays and span out heading towards a ditch, not the fun kind of sliding at all. Indeed, but I had massive understeer trying to get onto a slip road, 30mph, nope no traction, 20mph still no traction, 15mph, wahey traction. I have considered winter tyres and the stockers, but I never needed them in the M3, which has precisely no weight over the rear wheels whatsoever. I think you could have an incident in winter no matter what tyres you're on, however, it would be less painful driving into a curb with the oems.

RisingPower Posted October 30, 2010 Author Share Posted October 30, 2010 From that link i still think it does not look finished without a set of skirts. Hmm, I may consider skirts at some point in the future, but I still think they'd only end up being a nightmare around here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think the Nismo skirts on mine are any lower than oem just come out further.My Varis lip clears the 2 speed bumps onto our estate with no probs and my car is lowered.
