3Sixty Chat / Wow what a difference !!
« on: July 02, 2021, 05:47:41 PM »
So i needed new rear tyres and was getting fed up with our rubbish roads and those bum clenching moments as you hit a pot hole.

I currently have 285 x 30 but always thought the 30 series was a bit too small in wall height and as you know the tyre wall does do a lot of the work absorbing road bumps.

After much research i decided on a 285 x 35 which increases the wall height from 85 mm approx. to 96 mm approx.

Doesn't sound like much but WOW what a difference it has transformed the ride quality. My usual drives where i know the roads felt completely different it was a real joy. Plus i think the new tyre fills out the wheel arch better the 30 series looked a bit small , personal preference i know.

3Sixty Chat / Rear Tyres
« on: June 14, 2021, 04:30:00 PM »
So i will need some rear tyres soon and i notice that the standard 18 inch rim can take a 285 x 35 or a 275 x 40 i currently have 285s Has anyone put 275s on?

The reason im asking is although i have a 3l V6 and the engine is mounted as high as possible it still does wear the inner shoulder of tyre due to the angle of the drive shafts although not as bad as when i had the 1.8. So i thought maybe a slightly thinner tyre would wear the inner shoulder less and last longer?

Any thoughts or other issues i might incur with a 275 ?

Cheers

Friend of mine is selling his 360dna. It was originally built by DNA and was their show car as featured in kit car magazine (copy of magazine available with the car). Its Rosso red with tan interior. Had a new hood a few years ago.
Drives really well, fake brakes front and rear, HID headlight conversion , sounds really good on the 1.8

I will post up some pics in next few days but thought I would give anyone that's looking a heads up. Car is near Chelmsford.

If your interested pm me and I will give you the contact details.

3Sixty Chat / HID Headlights
« on: November 18, 2018, 05:13:08 PM »
Not sure what the headlights are like on the 430 but they are rubbish on the 360. They are so bad I don't drive the car at night. So I decided to fit HID bulbs from HIDS4U. They were about £85.00 and were really well made and dead easy to fit. I went for 6000 kelvin pure white and the higher rated 55 watt. This wattage is NOTHING like 55 watt halogen trust me....The beam spread and distance is amazing...I can now actually drive at night and see where im going. A friend was so impressed I put some on his 360.I had to get an MOT and told the garage I had fitted HID bulbs and they said that as long as they were aligned correctly they were happy. There is a bit of interference when they are on through the radio which I know can occur but strangely none on my mates car.I have still to change my head unit as the cd player has packed up so will just stick a cd on if there is still any issues when the new head unit goes in. But I cant say how pleased I am with them and they really set the car off especially if you change the side light bulbs to super bright LED as well..... 8)

Does anybody has a passenger side one ? or know who DNA used to make them or can speak to anyone at DNA to find out where they got them??? Does an Extreme one fit?

I think it was Wheeler Dealers or car SOS or both shows where they had to get a one off perspex bubble or window made does anyone know who it was they used??

3Sixty Chat / H Gate and Engine Cover
« on: August 03, 2016, 04:48:33 PM »
I have made a few changes to my engine cover as I wanted to include the MAFS that Mark - MK360BUILD found as they look just like the OEM units. They are the black ones in the photos , I also repainted everything and im pretty much done on this part really. I wanted an H Gate to go on the centre console I made and LEE22 came to the rescue, cheers Lee , so there is a pic of that too.... ;D
