Default Hi from the UK!

Hi to probably the largest Z forum there is on the planet! (who knows) been a member and lurker for a while now, not so much getting bored of 350z-uk.com but fancied getting involved with others across the pond. I have to say the knowledge base over in the US is far supreme to in the UK, and as I'm now getting close to finishing my girl I'm kinda looking for a few bits for the future.

So at least this isn't a thread that asks noob questions all the time, like "what's the best mod" or "can I supercharge for 1k"

Anyway enough of my rubbish hi to you all

And here's a couple of pic (she's called Suzie)*









Oh the spec

2006 GT (with that stupid Nissan satnav!!)
7" DVD head unit
Aluminium Nismo Gear Shift
ARC Air Intake
Polished Plenum
MREV2
Motordyne Plenum Spacer
UPREV
Carbon Bonnet Struts
GT Spec Strut Bar
Powder Coated Rays in Anthracite
Lowered 30mm on Eibach Pro springs
Rays Lightened Wheel Nuts
Eibach 20-25mm spacers
S2000 Stubby
DBA 4000 wiper slot rotars
Ferrodo DS2500 pads front
Performance Friction pads rear in oem Rotars
HEL brake and clutch lines
Motul fluids
Motordyne XYZ with race CAT
Japapeed test pipes/de-cats
Wizards of NOS 75 shot with street controller running 2x5lb in custom glove box
Seibon Carbon Boot (or rear hatch I think you call it over there)
Chargespeed Rear
Nismo V2 front and sides

Running at a shy 309 at the hubs

Oh and lots of Shell V power receipts!!

Any other pics needed just say, and yes fully aware I need some decent rims (have my eyes in the Weds SA-67blc)

Thanks guys for the warm welcome. Thought I'd dig out a few install pics.

Nitrous Install













MREV Install









I so need some decent rims, maybe you guys can shed some ideas, I like the SA67 Weds but thinking a deep dish is required, also what's your recommendations on colour as I think the darker colour suits Azure...*

(you may also notice the bodykit doesn't quite match the rest of the bodywork, which is being fixed)
