What is it with a lot of Z owners these days
The tyre thing is odd, however the tyre tread is wider, the contact patch for you is smaller though. I guess it's a pretty complex guess situation. However to me that would suggest overinflation. Weird. As for the box, I didn't say they could work, just that they generally arnt looked after and even when fully functional ruin the car. Converting to manual transformed my zed from a lazy high speed cruiser to a responsive sports car. The 99 well that's mostly cosmetic preference, it does improve airflow though...

To me this is perfectly executed.

Least you haven't got astmostpheric dump valves dump valves are a waste of time: they are but they're fun, 300hp in the road is also a waste of time legally but it's still fun the auto-box is perfectly good as long as maintained properly: they never are and actually even when they work they're a waste of a sports car UK rear tyres are not wider than JDM: I swear euro spec is 245 and Jspec 225 and actually the pre-99 spec front bumper looks better: they have equal merit, the 89 front is far more aggressive but the 99 is more in keeping with the rest of the lines, it's also a better bumper mechanically. What I dislike about the 89 which is why it's going is the under bite on the profile view. It's one hell of an over bite.

Firstly thankyou for your contribution however, I've got to disagree with you there though. When was time you attended a club meet national or local? The vast majority of cars are near stock. Maybe the odd or few subtle differences but overall very stock in appearance. The wild whacky vented whacky racer cars are getting rarer. It's falling out of fashion rapidly as the kids go "hellaflush" which is quite the opposite of the aforementioned. The Americans lead the way in terms of mods, go check out there cars. I honestly think the huge spoilers, fibreglass add ons and neons are dying a death. Actually it's as dead as chrome.

Old discussion but......
Some camera are forward facing, mobile cameras included. Essentially they can't sit on a bridge a mile down the road a bugger you over without a front plate. That's why you need one.

Halfords Tool Cabinet
I don't know what you have, if your low on tools though that cash would be better spent on one of their large advanced range socket set etc boxes. They're very well priced for the quality and come with lifetime no quibble warranty. I purchased a Clarke one from machinemart. It all depends what you want something where the drawers fall out is no good but equally you don't need an expensive empty box that you rarely use....

Hrmmmmmm, the side shot looks a little odd. Please don't take offence as I'm trying to be constructive but the front doesn't line up properly now IMHO. I can understand what you were saying RE the very low nose. Hrm.
