I'll see if I can get ya one Gaz :thumbup1:

:happybday: Happy Birthday buddy :happybday:

I see he got a negative feedback from the last guy who won it on 08/03/17 at €150, saying he "refunded payment without reason, just to relist it". Probably saw the other one for £650 and thinks he can get more. Be careful Gaz:thumbup1:

Holy Crap!!! that is some transformation Tom :bow::bow: Niiiice, Did it cost much??

Selling my Powertrix FUCA's, lying in the shed for last 7 years, some slight corrosion / blemishes, these retail for $350 plus shipping, duties etc. Looking for £200 posted

Hi guys, I have a spare set of GT500 Turbos with approx. 2k miles on them, these are already at Jimmer's so I'm sure he can inspect and vouch for them:thumbup1: As most of you know, these give you added performance with the appropriate bolt on mods (4-480bhp) with little lag from standard setup. They're also direct fit, so no having to switch to 5 bolt down pipes etc:thumbup1: Looking for £800

Well guys, looks like you're stuck with me for another year:tongue::tongue::tongue:

Nice work there Jay:thumbup:

I did bud, it was literally just prizing them out the last few mills, the Pistons popped out a lot easier than the other sets, they were just brittle

Just prizing them out Andrew, had pressure on both sides to pull them up cleanly but 2 just chipped off, they're about £20 each to replace, so it's not the end of the world, they're different to both the SRT8 and evo pistons in that they don't seem to be metal. they're called Phenolic pistons?? Seem to be like a porcelain/composite material.

Hi guys, as stated in my build thread, I'm going to Plan B, so Plan A is up for sale:yes: I'm selling a newly refurbished pair of Brembo SRT8 6 Piston calipers, (new seals, stainless bleed valves, hardware (pad springs+bolts) powdercoat, heat resistant silver "Brembo" logos and brake pads. These are hard to source over here as they're mostly on the US market. A scabby pair (in need of refurb) retail around the $800 mark, then you have shipping etc on top, plus the cost of coating and hardware. Also included are the adapter brackets and necessary bolts washers etc, which are a straight fit onto our hubs. For £1300 you get 355mm drilled and grooved discs included, you can source your own if you prefer which will reduce the price by £200, this kit is fitted to my car but has never been used (black rust-proof paint still on discs). I would like to add that the fitment of these brakes are dependant on a minimum internal wheel diameter of no less than 450mm. Some 18's will fit (TE37's Nismo LMGT's etc) some will not (my Veilsides). Again most 19's should also fit over them but check before you buy. Brake lines are not included as I need my ones to fit my new setup to. They're the basic Banjo style found on Evo's etc.

All stripped down and in the powder coaters since 3.45pm :clap: Going to have to order a couple of Pistons along with the seals etc, a couple of them were quite brittle (like porcelain) and chipped off:scared: Should be back from Powdercoaters by next week:thumbup1:

Can I have yours, if anything bad happens to your Z??:innocent::lol:

Jeez dude!! You don't do things by half!!! Plenty of rest and TLC, You sound a bit like a Z, go in for a routine fix and then all hell breaks loose!! Think you need to go to Jimmer to get a full overhaul of that motor inside ya :thumbup: Glad you "Stayed with us" matey:thumbup1:

Which calipers do you want to know about?? The original ones are SRT8 Brembo's, found on Jeep, Chrysler, etc and the new ones are Brembo 18z's, found on Porsche, Audi and some VW's. Car is at Keith's for a bit longer, hoping to have it done by 1st-2nd week of April, then she's off to Jimmer's to have a health check and everything fitted properly:thumbup:

:happybday: Happy birthday Jazz:happybday:

So after trying a few different ideas regarding fitting my 18" Veilsides over my HUGE Brembo 6 pot front calipers and failing miserably:thumbdown: I'm now moving to plan B:innocent: I will be selling my front setup, newly powder coated 6 piston Brembo calipers with brand new, seals, stainless bleed valves, adapter brackets and brake pads (same as R35 GTR), You can get 18"s & 19's over them if they have a minimum internal diameter over 450mm, unfortunately for me, I want to keep my Veilsides which are 450mm but step down to 435mm. I'll stick up a for sale thread shortly:yes: Anyway..... PLAN B:clap: Just got these babies delivered, back to square one... strip them down, order new stainless bleed valves, new seals, new pads, new hardware (pad springs+bolts), send them for powdercoating and then rebuild. Pretty much what I've just done on my other ones. Where my larger set are 355mm in length, these are ONLY 325mm, thus the 30mm less should fit inside my Veilsides :thumbup: Quick comparison between the two calipers sitting inside the wheel My old setup... New setup... Hoping to get things moving over the next couple of months, so while the car is being painted, I can slowly rebuild these and have everything ready for when it heads down to Jimmer:punk:

:wheelchair:Best of luck today bud, it'll all be over and done with shortly:wheelchair:

:happybday: Happy birthday Mick, have a good one :happybday:

:happybday: Happy birthday matey, have a great day :thumbup1: :happybday:

:happybday: Happy birthday matey, hope you have a good one:thumbup1: :happybday:

Haven't been doing much Z related the last while, bar saving up and paying for my respray :thumbup:, I did however get offered another SWB TT in red and said "what the hell", the guy let me pay him off in installments so it took the sting out of it:thumbup: Pics These Kyosho models don't come up very often (expensive when they do) so figured when they're offered to me for a reasonable amount, it would be rude not to take them:yes:

Watching this thread with anticipation:thumbup: . Really looking forward to seeing this progress mate:thumbup1:

As you've just said Si.... It's an advertising prop and as such could it not be considered a company car?? ie. Could you claim expenses for it?? I most certainly wouldn't sell it mate, you'll never get another as clean as yours unless you spend A LOT of money. Don't do something that you'll regret in the future matey. It's only money, as they say.:thumbup1:
