We have said it before and we will say it again… we love what we do, we get to mix it up with some of the coolest people in the scene from all over the world, and one cool guy in particular is our buddy Bryce Jenkins.

Some of you will already know that we have a couple of favourite Rocket Bunny 350Z builds that really do hit the VAD sweet spot, as you know we aren’t really a fan of the rivet over fender scene, but the RB350Z looks so damn good, and Bryce has taken the bunny to another level, in more ways than one.

The first thing that caught our attention was the wheel build, but let’s come to that later. The first thing I want to discuss is the colour, boy oh boy did he nail that, it’s absolutely incredible to look at, we can’t stop staring at it in the office it’s that nice, we can honestly say we don’t think there is a better looking 350Z out there, black rose …. We luuuuuurve you.

Now to the wheels, we all know wheels make the car, and you can’t beat the look of a classic 5 spoke, and the AG F130 is pure win, but what we like about the Bryce factor is he didn’t follow the usual concave crowd, nope he did it his way, traditional standard profile, with huge outer rims, and the colour of the wheels is right on the money, that compliments the body colour to perfection.

So how about this for fitment … 12x19 front & 14x19 rear, he then wrapped them in “MAN” sized tyres, none of this skinny ass 255 sssssssssstreched on a 14” wheel, with silly camber un-driveable garbage, nope he did things properly, 295/30 front and 345/30 rear, Bryce doesn’t do things by halves, it’s done properly or not at all, we like that…we like that a lot.

Well now for the best bit... it’s ***FOR-SALE*** yes we know, lets repeat that … it’s for sale and it’s a bloody bargain.

The spec list is amazing, to the point of trouser arousing, especially when you look at the price he wants for the car, we know you can’t put a price, effort, commitment and time, if you could this car would be up for $100k + but what a car for the money, someone stateside is going to grab an absolute bargain, so here goes, ....tissues at the ready.

The AG Luxury wheel brand is quite a new brand, but as with any of the AG products, it hasn't taken long to attract the marquees the brand was launched for, you only have to look at his MP4 12C to see that the Luxury arm of the AG brand is in some serious company.

with brands like McLaren, its difficult to improve the looks of the car, some of the wheels we have seen adorn this masterpiece have completely ruined what McLaren designed, but lets not go there, as its a case of each to their own, what works for some, doesnt work for others.

For us here in the VAD office this Mclaren is perfection, wheel size, design, and finish, the AG Luxury ALG-15 has never looked so good, this particular example is fitted with 9x20 >245/30R20 front & 12.5x21 >325/25R21 rear, with the spec 3 concave 3 piece forged centres, finished in smoke candy black centres, with smoke polished outer rims, machined to take the oem centre caps, as you can see this is one stunning combination.

It was good to be at the penultimate race of the season, at Birmingham Wheels and see Andy Hartwell in action yet again, in the very competitive Mascar series, wow they fly and there really are some great drivers in the field, its a great series and if you haven’t already been along to see these little pocket rockets in action, we can strongly suggest popping along to see, especially the final of the season when they are at the same venue as the Legends.

Saturday 22nd of October and Andy had 3 races, so we got there nice and early to set up and check the car over, and of course VAD was roped in, we were chief cook and bottle washer, pleased to say the burgers went down a treat, .. .so with the belly full, it was time to hit the first race at 5 pm.

The car looked nervous and a bit of a handful to drive, and Andy did confirm, it was pushing on the front end, but even with that problem, he had a great result and came in 3rd overall, in the second race the car looked the same, very push on the front end, what didn’t help in race two was the tank slapper moment from another car that lost control and hit Andy in the side, luckily Andy didn’t sustain too much damage and managed to get to the finish line, and after a good check over would be out for race 3.

Back at the pits, Craig from PRO24 Race shop noticed one of the coilover units had too much play, which explains the pushy front end, especially as it was on the front passenger side, an the side that was doing most of the work, so a quick swap from side to side with an easy repair for the evening and as there was the third and final race, nothing really to lose.

Starting 3rd for the final race of the evening, 25 laps of the track, within half a lap car number #5 took the lead and pulled out a 1.5 to 2 second gap, the car looked so much better, it was planted,and all was going well , that was until half way point and backmarker car 50 gave andy very little room as he over took him, he shouldn’t really of been anywhere near him, but he was and he hit #05 and spun him round, frustrating end to a brilliant start, as he was on for the win, but that as they say is racing.

So now it’s the end of the season, with just the grand final left, Birmingham wheels here we come.
