Hey all BBS owners your model number shoud be printed on the side of your rim or under the bolt cover if you have a centre cover. HTH Cheers all!

I just sold my BBS's!
Thanks guys Si your right! If they had been et30's It would have taken a crow bar to get them off me! But having to run them with spacers and my steering wobbling I just got fed up really. Will get some that fit one day.

I just sold my BBS's!
Are you holding on to something?? Nine Hundred and Fifty Quid!!!!!! :shock: Crazy! If I had known I would have sold them ages ago. Mine were 18's 8's and 9's RS501's. I am pretty pleased as they were et42's I had to run them with spacers which is never ideal IMHO. The mania wheels I have I got off ebay for 80 quid and refurbed them for 200. I'm not fussed about them not being as light etc as they fit and they dont wobble etc.

advice on one piece prop
Hey mate they are lighter and stiffer so more turning force goes to the wheels rather than getting lost in turning a heavier prop. It is also a significant weight saving over the original prop. I got mine from Z1 in the states was about 300 squids delivered. Down side is that if you have worn bushes etc it can accentuate any play in the system.

New s3!
Are you running standard suspension? just out of interest?

Pic of et20 offset
Hi mate a 20 offset would sit pretty wide already being 9.5 I would say they would stick out of the arches and you would need to get the flared. IMHO I have Et42 9's with 20mm spacers which makes them an et22 and I cant fit anything wider than a 255 as it rubs. Although my brakes have been upgraded to the Ksports rears so I think my wheel hubs are different fron standard.

Light Steering
I have noticed that it feels alot tighter when I ratchet the coilovers up to hard. Is it like ly that extra stiffening at the front end would provide the same feedback?
-
Advice please
Hey mate from the pics it looks pretty normal at the back. The front looks like its been lowered but the angle of th epic is downwards so its difficult to tell.

Fitting UK Clocks
Pleased for you mate. Little things like that annoy the crap out of me. Really awesome when you fix them.

If these
It seems to be a pretty standad upgrade fella, every little helps.

Forgot how much attention the Z gets!
I took mine in to get the wheels swapped by the local tyre shop. I saw a little boy and his father satdning having a look when I got back to the car. It was very sweet. I find that most people dont know what it is.

Light Steering
Does it make a difference if I have an AEM for an ECU?
-
Light Steering
Hey mate no I have uk clocks in a jap car. A smaller wheel is something I can try for a while I've got my momo in the garage. I just wondered if there was a way of adjusting it? Or using a different rack? 350z maybe?
-
Advice please
Hey buddy I think you can send Ohlins stuff back to them for repair, service and refurb, might be an option for you. I know when I had my bike that many suspension companies would service Ohlins products.

Light Steering
Hey all I had a go in a friends car this evening (alfa) and the steering was very nicely weighted. Is there any way to change the lightness in the Zeds steering to make it feel more "weighted" ? Are new steering columns heavier? can you use ones from different cars? Cheers Ron
