At the pod yesterday!! Ran in the mid 9's all day without NOS and when they turned it on ran the 9.4 but the clutch was slipping so lost some time :eek: Great achievement and be nice to see some other cars challenging the skylines this year ;) Mike

:rofl: :rofl:

ya sod beat me to it lmao

what do you mean layout?? which numbers are what?? if so from looking at the front of the car the LHS goes 1, 3, 5 and RHS 2, 4, 6 If theres anything else let me know Mike

15mm but i bought a kit with longer studs as well ;) but alot also depends on the alloys you buy as i only has 5mm spacers on mine but even 5mm made it a little dodgy with the nuts hence why i went for a full kit with new longer studs :) Mike

far too big offset and would look very very silly you need around a 35 offset for the zed

thats actually not true only if the sender ships via the postal service in that country so in the US its the USPS and so on then yes it all comes into the Parcelforce hub in coventry where yes there are customs based in the hub (miserable gits ;) ) when being shipped via DHL, Fedex etc etc the same still applies!! they all have to abide by the import rules and have there own customs people based in there hubs so dont think by getting something shipped via fedex that you will not have to pay because you will be badly mistaken. As Mr Groves said if you ask for the item to be marked up as a low value then your stuffed if it gets lost/damaged and you need to claim. Thats why i always ask for it as warrantee replacement as its unlikely they would ask for anymore info ;) Mike

dont know if this is any good for you?

The personnel allowance is actually £36 before you should pay any import tax and vat etc problem is any courier that brings it in will have to pay it up and will charge you for this as well and it can be pretty expensive. As people have said there are little loop holes you can exploit like getting the sender to declare is as Warrantee replacement, low value goods, marketing material and i think there are a few more but another one is to get them to address the goods to every member of your family ;) i know that sounds silly but if you get your goods addressed to 5 family members then you qualify for 5 x the £36 personnel allowance :) Mike

rears can be done on the car, the fronts are a pain so we took the whole hub off and pressed them out. got mine from chris TBH i didnt get them for bringing the wheels out for looks but needed them to clear the brakes but i must admit they do look nice spaced out a little further ;) but what i will say is the further you space them out the further the camber goes!! Mike

Now indian_zx go and take a cold bath, slap your face a few times and stare at zed pictures for the next few hours and get that silly notion that the bmw looks nice!! ;)

That is the Ultimate CHAV MOBILE :xxx: :rant: :slap: (ps wheres the being sick icon??)

its a difficult one because if its a sticky lifter then it can be moved by giving the car a good revving but if its not and poss something much worse then your only going to do more damage but tbh if you on the lines of having to pull the engine anyway due to a failed oil pump or big ends etc then i would give it a go to see if it frees the lifter up?? do it at your own risk ;)

:slap: :rofl:

alot will depend where the noise is comming from its its in the top of the engine then i would put money on lifter but if its lower then yeh more likely the big ends poss from oil pump being knacked :( just hope its the first one bud Mike

What can i say GREDDY POWER :bow: Check out the summer tour dates of the newest band of Mike & Mac :D

as greg said it sounds like a stuck lifter, so check your oil level and make sure theres plenty in

what base boost are your new springs iain??

i think the problem will be its pointing the front downwards so makes it even lower so i would take the back down a little it will point the front up as well :)

exactly what i was gonna ask :) found out mine are 1 bar springs in mine so should be ok for serious BOOST :)

jonnyz32 is selling a white uk manual with some very nice mods ;)

:rofl: but mine is bigger than his :rofl:

its only a few mm bigger than the howe ;) but every mm counts lol

just need to get my polishing stuff out and polish some of the engine bay to make it look nice lol

no probs matey ;)
