original vs 99 spec front bumper
hi was set on a 99 spec front as it makes the front end look a bit heavier but now Ive got my car and Ive seen the original front in dark metallic red its growing on me whats your thoughts ta chris
-
Quite like the look of these
pre warning these seats are uncomfortable HARD and there waist width is not as good as the Z I had some similar but a little more subtle on the top half, they looked good but that was about it

keep your Z for road use and if you want the ultimate in performance 350bhp per ton would destroy most things let alone the cossies pulsars etc within reason theres one thing it takes everything on no matter what and thats handling I built this myself and got it ready last summer agreed value of 10k you could do one for about 5k if you tried MK Indy Yamaha R1 60mph in first gear gets there in about 3.8 secs ,paddle shift, 13,000rpm. Everyone will crowd round it when you pull up I built this 6 months ago and only sold it because I moved house mates BUSA http://www.atinof.com/moggy/spin.wmv Insurance is stupidly low aswell ie around 200 quid something to consider I shall get another in the nice weather and still keep the Z ta chris

anybody got dash trims?
I had a CF one in my last Z and TBH it came from the USA within 10 days well presented great quality just clean everywhere with the wipe before you stick them on# and Finally considering everything is so over priced because you own a 300zx for 60 quid there one of the best mods
