  1. Well worth a try! I put in a claim for mine but I never got it. The wheels were curbed by the previous owner but the paint bubbled on the spokes.... Many have got them replaced for refurbed rims though.
  2. Doesn't weigh less..... see above!
  3. Changed just before 10 but still good. I was annoyed I died so much last night. A guy from my work is in 158 place with no bought aids! He is doing brilliantly!
  4. Stew

    Wider Tyres

    I didn't like the RE040s in anything but dry. RE050 are much better if you want 'stones. I run Toyos and find them excellent in all weathers. It's all personal preference though.
  5. Yep. Danny is selling lights. Might be worth a PM.
  6. The steering wheels on the right side for the south of Froggie land I know. Sorry, was just a little joke......
  7. If you are the guinnea pig and it works I'd be tempted at that kind of money.... Adam would it benefit the UK Zed much and who is best to set it up? Looks nifty.
  8. I was cruising along nicely. The winds changed and I never logged on and I lost 36k places last night. Still, course set so now I'm making them up slowly.
  9. Local garage bud, the guy new what car it was as soon as i described the symptoms. He came out fiddled around and said he was 100% certain it was the coils, i asked him for a price and was a bit shocked (£40 quid a coil and i needed 2 and £40 quid labour ) So i popped to rowlings in town and paid £44 quid for 2 and fitted them myself Took me about 3 mins to fit Good effort Mike! £76 in the pocket!
  10. Aaaw. It's only another that's kind of lost it's sentiment, and a bit too commercial. Does that you feel better? I agree. Anyway, I'll just take the other half out next weekend. You can be a romantic soppy fool anyday of the year. It's far to big a cliche doing it on Feb 14th
  11. 6 pages and nobody is going....... I thought that only happened on the London threads!
  12. Have a look at the manual to locate the ECU. Have a look and see. Maybe someone local will come round and wipe your arse for you too.......
  13. That looks much better than sitting in my office alone!
  14. Something worth remembering is that generally an aftermarket carbon bonnet weighs the same as the aluminium bonnet already fitted. 3fiddyz posted a link to a strut company yesterday and I'm sure they used to supply ESR.
  15. Well I missed the drunken fun! Last night, finished work aqt 7 and went to my GFs parents house. They have people round. I had a some food and was tucked up at 10:30 alone as Jayne stayed there! Still up bright and early and sitting in the office now!
  16. That's plenty. http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=15956 for my car. I think the Eibachs are 27mm but honestly it's plenty.
  17. I think Irfans one is the visage item. That one looks quite like the Nismo. The car isn't to my taste though overall.
  18. Tcut........ It's a bit aggressive on the Z mate. Or any car for that matter. I'd perhaps recommend wash, clay, wash, polish (dodo lime prime or autoglym SRP or similar.....), then your choice of wax. I wouldn't want you to make a mess of your lovely GT4! Thanks for the advice, all the members on here are very helpful! Saved me posting another thread too. I will post my results Then it's off to CS for some Nismo styling and a few "adjustments" I think the Nismo kit and shorter springs at the back will help complete the look I am after. The back of the car looks like the arse is pointing in the air a bit! No problem bud. They always look sweet lowered. I find my car rides really nicely with the Eibachs all round. Then it'll be a new exhaust. Then it'll be uprated brake componentss etc etc! You'll be as bad as the rest of us!
  19. I was once hired a car by the garage when the Zed was getting warranty work (this is what stemmed the fall out between me and the shower of shites at the garage...) and when I got there the guy asked me what I wanted. I said something similar. He laughed and said best I have3 is a mondeo diesel. Will that do? I laughed and took it. Wasn't his problem. The 520d in value probably isn't that for off really.... pov spec maybe a few grand. It's the way they delivered it and the state of it etc that'd get up my nose!

  21. Sorry, was for my own amusement. Being a V6 there are two exhaust manifolds but on the standard exhaust they do join after the cats. Maybe see if there is an owner based locally that might help out. If not I'd take it to a garage to be honest.
  22. Looks ace. I like the GT4 wheels but Nismos are awesome. With the kit it'll look so good! :teeth:
  23. though it does have an aftermarket exhaust but you get the jisy. On the standard exhaust the the pipes join after the cats (goldy boxes in the pic) at the Y pipe then it's one pipe the the backbox.
