do a bit of drifting do we?!

No I don't do all that hooligan drifting stuff she is set up for fast road handling and does it very well.. No cheap ebay rubbish fitted, all genuine Japanese tuning parts and fitted by myself.. I love showing the 911, M3/M5, AMG owners that you can with a Nissan..


Me too Thumbs Up But our roadster has slightly less BHP Whistle It is a nice feeling watching their faces in the rear view mirror as they watch the crappy (in their minds Rolling Eyes ) nissan in front pulling away Rolling with laughter Rolling with laughter

Also good when I can out brake and handle them too, I fitted 356mm discs all round and 8 pot calipers front 6 pot rear. Performance friction pads £328 per set.. Big Cry Big Cry but hey demon late braking is class..
And RSR Super I Coilovers with Titanium springs, 32 way adjustable rebound/compression damping. Put that with flatshift and launch control it takes a real fancy badge and driver to catch me.. Laughing Laughing Laughing
So I can go fast and go anywhere... Now I have the Defender...


A serious petrol head Bow down I just added some discrete nismo enhancements, all out of sight and the zed looks standard. Some pop chargers and other engine enhancements puts the zed not that far behind yours in BHP terms. And there is always the option of fitting a blower, but that would be a serious power jump Shocked The OEM brembos are 6 pot fronts and 4 pots rear on 18" rays alloys and I've never had any issues slowing down quickly either........yet. Whistle The 3.5L V6 does make a lovely purring sound though, and an even nicer roar when you put the boot in, especially noticeable when the roof is down Twisted Evil

Plus it is the better half's car, her choice as she loves fast cars and (slow) defenders, what a woman and lucky me Very Happy

It's easy done, 15k is without all the labour costs as Iv'e done it myself.. I dread to think what it would be else @ £60 PH + veg and taties.. Rolling Eyes

Defenders are just silly money really but they have that appeal so we give in and spend the hard earned.. Laughing
