Yup, sure was nasty as hell. From the Fray-Bentos wheels, to the horrible paint effect, to the worst bodykit known to man. The interior was pretty garish too; in the words of znut, it looked like a tacky Las Vegas brothel! :lol:

Totally agree. This old club car was one of the worst examples of that. :hurl: Probably one of the most hideous 300zxs to have been 'created' in the UK.

AMS you say? Woops! Have fun fitting those!

Apparently, it's got a passenger airbag! :lol:

How to ruin a great car. What horrid creation.

Waaayyyy too narrow for a 10".

Steer clear of ANYTING with a bodykit as they often hide rust. The Veilside kit ain't a nice kit either.

No

Better than this!!

Roll on summer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If they were originally forged as a 3-piece set, then the outer and inner barrels would definitely have been welded like this effectively turning them into 2-piece wheels. If they were true 3-piece construction, that tyre would not be where it is in the photo. :) This is the barrel from one of my old Advan Siena wheels.

They wouldn't be!! The barrels with no fasteners on would not hold the tyre at pressure. If they are described as 3-piece they are probably welded 3-piece as I described above. :)

Those wheels are 2 piece. The barrels would have popped off and hit you in the face if they'd been true 3-piece!!!

Actually, looking at the wheel, I see you still have the tyre mounted! Good job they were 2-piece or 2-piece welded else that tyre would be as flat as a pancake.

Easiest way to tell mate; when you undid all the bolts, were you left with a wheel face and a barrel or a wheel face, an inner and an outer barrel? Some 2-peice barrels are seam welded to create a single. Go and have a look.

Are yours 2 or 3 piece wheels? Looks like they're 2-piece? If they are, they won't need any form of seal. My last set of split-rim wheels I had done by a chap in Nottingham who did an incredible job!

Learning to jack off with your left hand may have to take place! Ouch dude, hope you get fixed soon!!

Yeah the yellow pram is a street car. I have absolutely ZERO interest in 'drifting' and think the scene has actually drifted up its own ass! It seems that any obscure/horrid/beaten up car has an excuse to appear cool as the "oh, it's a drift car" card will undoubtably always be played and all the street kids with flat peaked caps with their jeans below their asses will think it's fresh and cool. That thing with the shark on the side is a rotten heap of shit to look at, yet everyone thinks it 'looks siiiick' or whatever. I don't care that it has an RB26 under the bonnet; the fact of of the matter is, as a visual piece, it looks horrible. It looks like it should be stuffed away in the corner of some junk yard with dog turds on the seats and weeds growing through the engine bay. A true race-car is where my interests lay, not a wannabe drift-hero king driving around in something that looks like it was dragged out of a ditch.

This!! :bow:

:headvswall

Yeah it is real and it's bloody revolting. The rest of the car looks nice, but this silly crazy of big gay wings will hopefully fizzle out. It just looks utterly ridiculous IMO. :)

Lee, you need to start wearing some rubber pants. :p

Not strictly true. You could also order Stramann Z32 Twin Turbo convertibles through select Nissan dealerships which were heavily reworked hard too vehicles. Sure, they never came out of the factory like that, but it was possible to buy them direct from Nissan as a 'new' car.
