  1. As above there is a button on the end of the wiper stalk that controls the front washers.
  2. Just incase anyone views my comment as 'jealous' you'd be wrong. I'd love to be able to have that much disposable income and fair play to the guy for spending how much he wants on what he wants. I'm just making the point that he is paying over the odds for some purchases. $22,000+ on those seats and I think it was $225,000 for the GTR
  3. I cant help but think, you're getting constantly ripped off....
  4. Cracking price that! I'm hoping I come across someone with a 6 speed who has no clue what they're worth
  5. You wouldn't know you'd be dead
  6. How much did you buy it for in the end?
  7. Looking good Glenn I can see my car parked next to yours
  8. Ellis is a great guy, one I've had the pleasure of catching up with on several events. The members on here in general tend to help out fellow enthusiasts on their way
  9. Seems you haven't made many friends Brad... Only a few people coming.
  10. That would be Binfield_X (or something) - he lives in New Malden.
  11. Welcome Chris, I'm going to guess you're from Detroit Get some pics up of the Aristo when you can - Great to see a new member who's joined, paid up and organised their profile on their first post. Organised
  12. Just stumbled across this thread after a few years (of last looking at it) - Makes you wonder if Dave is still intereseted in this?
  13. I'll be there, have a friends 30th diner to attend in the evening so not too sure how long I'll stay. Geeky Sidenote: Darren your F&F quote in your sig should be "Dude I almost had you"
  14. Where abouts in North London do you live Tariq?
  15. So DriftWorks have emailed me to say that the ET29 isnt possible on the rears and that they can either do ET24 or ET37.
  16. Had stock 17's on for the last 8 years
  17. Thanks Alex! That looks like the same site I was using! Fingers crossed that they'll fit then.
  18. Good Question, I'm not very clued up on the whole Wheel/Tyre sizes but according to some helpful websites the 'Ideal' sizes are; Fronts: 255 or 265 so could potentially go for 255/45/18 Rears: 275 or 285 so could potentially go for 275/40/18 Input?
  19. So, I've decided to pull the trigger and just go with the wheels I always set out to get - Works Meister SP1's in 18" - I want to make sure that I have a "flushed" look so they fill the arches without spacers. A few people have suggested the following (with an arch roll on the rear) Fronts - 9.5J ET35 and 10.5J rears ET29 I have UK brakes on the car as stated so they'll need to clear them. Do those offsets sound right?
  20. They do look nice, think Mugello has a set of LM5's on his wide body build.
  21. Agreed, a Google search is a good idea and one I have done (except for 18" instead of 17") but it's better if members who have 18" wheels can share their experience with their wheels and how they fit. Otherwise, I'd be stuck doing the same thing I've been doing.
  22. Now I know that wheel choice is very much a personal preference and some people prefer certain styles to others, but I wanted to get some input on here in regards to wheels. The car is pretty much stock externally (Silver 199) with the exception of a matt black (plastidipped) RMM polyurethane front lip, earless. It currently has the stock 17's on with UK Brakes underneath. Initially, I was set on getting some Works Meister S1's, like Dave (tkdav3) but it seems they are growing in popularity so I'm looking if there are other alternatives. I did also, find a cheap replica of these wheels should anyone want that look but be on a budget, they're Konig SSM - however the rear offset on a 10J is +15 so wouldn't work I also was considering some Weld's that have been for sale on FB but looking into more detail at the offset, they're not that great +56 fronts and +69 rears I then started looking at things other than a 5 spoke alloy to see if there was something that caught my eye and stumbled across Works Emotion D9R's that JackyBoi has; but reading on his thread the 19" wheels rubbed slightly on his UK fronts so he sanded the brakes back slightly (something I don't really want to do on my new brake setup) So, heres the thing - what 18" wheels can people suggest that would sit flush with the arches and clear UK brakes - I do love a 5 spoke setup with some dish but will also consider alternative styles. The arches on my car are also stock, not rolled or cut in anyway.
