As a subscribed member of the Z32 OEM+ membership council, I beg to differ. Whilst your current spoiler renders you disbanded from the federation, details like that can be easily changed [emoji735]! The Stillen lip is an OEM quality product that lends itself wonderfully to the original aesthetics and doesn’t distract too much from the stock design [emoji736]. A modern OEM would see the power output of the VG30 increased to remain competitive within its market, so power upgrades are permitted within that category [emoji736]. The same guidelines apply for the suspension and whilst I do like your current wheels, I do look forward to a revival of the SSRs with an equally snug and aggressive fitment. [emoji736] Application forms for the OEM+ super mega club can be found underneath Simon’s boot carpet, once filled in, he will need to carry out a visual assessment so I’d advise booking a Friday afternoon appointment to catch him in a good mood.

Don’t forget Scotty, he lives on the Island too.

It seems to a shame to interrupt this thread with a comment as you’re full steam ahead catching up - but I’m going to! I have been following Nick’s build as best I can via Instagram and Facebook, but it was never really a documented journal like this to properly take in what is being done. I’m so glad I hassled you to get back on the club forums and post up a proper journal as it’s a pleasure to read and take in. I know there’s still more to come and it gets better but this thread will be an awesome guide to many looking to upgrade every aspect of their pride and joy and an inspiration to get stuck in and try things! It’s a bloody good achievement by all accounts sir and I can see this link being shared around the global community as part of the new brigade of tuning ethos for the Z32 that doesn’t require massive turbos and all top end. In my opinion, a 5-600hp Z32 with small turbos and buckets of torque like this will probably be the best all round street and fun track car out there. A Z with good throttle response and low down power with a fairly decent grunt all the way to redline is the way forward.

For reference: Fronts 19x8.5 et22 225/35 Rears 19x9.5 et25 255/30 MeisterR coilovers, side shot shows ride height.

Any idea on the Fat Lamb prices for 1 person?

Happy Birthday James [emoji482]

What a great impression for our newcomer!

And that my friends, forms the very essence of OEM+. Larger wheels to fill those big arches and a slight drop to make them feel at home; a modernised OEM version of itself.

I’ll raise a glass to them one Tom [emoji482]

Happy Birthday [emoji320]

Looks like the front wheel alignment is out, I’d walk away from that sale!

Yes, yes, yes!

Welcome to the club Jack [emoji106]

What a fantastic read through that lot! Thanks for sharing Gary [emoji106]

Yes!

Blimey, mention Zelda and everyone pops out of the woodwork [emoji106]

Belated Birthday wishes Tony [emoji106]

Was it not making a noise on the car?

You didn’t remove the ladder whilst he was up changing someone’s aerial did you?

I recently sold a 130i e87, it was a cracking car to drive and with a 3 litre straight 6 up front, it could be quite a drama!

I’m working on something new which should give us some nice marketing at shows etc.

We certainly put up a good sell at the NEC this year. [emoji41]

What’s going on here Gary, there seems to be a big defect in the paint:

“What will be” (eventually). I’m thinking 10+ years down the line as we’re talking about investment cars. It’s just my opinion that when/if it comes to that point where these cars are carried away in a bubble of significant value, that an original UK supplied car will be at the forefront of desirability. I’ll be happily proved wrong but I think they will be the rarest examples in mint condition, possibly even more so than a 99spec car.
