Got midpipe too ? Aye Daniel San How much you looking for and does it include a free lunch and a pint ?

+1 for many of us, whether we stay with ZEDs or otherwise +10000000 Oh, and *cough* G35/37 *cough* +1 on the G35/G37 option, even the older 350GT Very touching story too and great to see that this forum had a positive impact on your life, even if it's a rather small impact compared to having a beautiful daughter. By the way, how much would a second hand Tanabe Medallion exhaust sell for? Thanks bud... Well its practically brand new, 2 months old, covered less than 500 miles and retails around £865.. Im open to serious offers

Got the ypipe ta... Tanabe medallion Touring is coming off

Got midpipe too ?

Hi all I need to get hold of an OEM exhaust, reasonable condition UK or Jap Preferably midlands area Will swap for Nismo goodies or cash, what have you got

Thanks guys.... What a great bunch

plus one, I love those wheels

They are gimmicky products and yeah you get what you pay for but I wouldnt be too concerned, its a plastic bottom and probably better quality than the OEM one, loads of members have had similar products on their Zeds for years, the JDM post in flyboys wouldnt put me off. Mine were from a supplier in Canada, look pretty similar as the ones in the packs tbh At the end of the day that looks great and for the money its perfect.. I'd love to sell more of the Nismo ones but ive only sold a few as they are pricey bits of kit.. Ive got 5 of them atm and I reckon they will hang around for a bit..

370 vs 911 money??? What 911's have you been looking at?.......you've not been in touch with Raymond Colletri to steal you one have you? Well I can't afford to buy one due to maintenance payments so the next option was to steal one obviously

I did think about them a lot, I think I need to get the 911 out of my system though... always admired them as a kid and it ticks all the boxes. Went out in one yesterday and very much enjoyed it... Think Mellie wants one too

Think you need to take it to a garage tbh buddy Welcome btw

Thanks guys Ricey... three years is a long time for me considering I had 7 cars in the same time before the Zed so it is time to upgrade... Like I mentioned it was going to be a 370 but money and seat restraints dictate otherwise.. I could get a shed but tbh, that just ain't me.... I want one car I love, I average 6k a year in my zed so doesn't really make sense clogging up the drive with two cars

Good on you buddy... Hope all goes well, don't think you will need anything from me but I can put you in touch with two of my canadian suppliers when your out there...

FAO Traders.... No need to read on..... im not closing Tarmac Sportz Hi all, Took me 10 minutes to write that above as this is a bit emotional for me...(not the FAO traders bit) For those that know me, some of you will know whats coming for those that don't... here's a bit of an insight I bought a 350z 3 years ago.... saw one, test drove it, fell in love with it, did no research and bought it, a year later I joined here and my first post was asking about child seats... still don't know the definitive answer lol.. My user name was geraghtyr200 (irish surname - english born and bred), no one could spell or pronounce it so I was given the nickname by Rich of 'Tarmac'... My real name is Chris, im 33 years old and I like to think im a good guy, I like the odd drink, I like a laugh and I love cars.. As some of the mods will probably confirm, I was not the best behaved member when I first joined and was told off by Beavis on many occasion... "The success of marriage " thread being one particular area I posted frequently... Having met Beavis I can say he is a good guy and we get on well. I'd never been on a forum before and was a little naive... My car, this forum and the friends ive met have changed my life for the better... I will never forget that and I will always be very grateful to the work put in by the admins and mods to make this place what it is and given people like me the opportunities it has.. During my time on the forum me and my partner gave birth to a little girl called Carmela(Mellie Moo)... it was the happiest time of my life and I am the proudest father in the world, she is the most important thing in my life and I would die for her... My partner had two boys from a previous relationship and its always going to be a challenge bringing up children that are not yours but it was a challenge I was prepared to take on... Unfortunately due to a string of bad times 'out of respect I won't divuldge' ,our relationship ended in May and I moved out... Its been the hardest time of my life but it was the right thing to do, Tarmac Sportz has helped me focus on things and taken up a lot of time in a good way... luckily me and my ex have remained on relatively good terms and I have my little angel 4 times a week... In fact the time we have together is probably more special then when we lived as a family, I have a big circle of friends so we are out at play areas, parties, friends etc most weeks ( i think I have more fun in the soft play areas than she does though ) During the time since the split i've been borrowing my mums car to take Mellie out and drop her off etc, as you can imagine its awkward at times and can be a bit restrictive not having your own vehicle, so with great regret the time has come to sell and get something with rear seats... Owning the Zed has been amazing for me, ive loved every second of my 3 years of ownership. She has been reliable, fun, exciting and a Joy in my life... I feel proud and privileged to have owned one... I know the last time I drive her or when I see her drive off without me I will break down and cry my bloody eyes out.. The natural progression from the Zed was going to be the 370z but thats going to have to be shelved till Mellie is old enough to go in the front seats... So, what next ? Well im a petrol head so it ain't going to be sensible is it.. i'd been saving before for a 370z for a while but not quite got enough for one I wanted 'black edition' anyway. Had many thoughts and looked at many cars, Supras, Evos etc then someone suggested a Porker.... Been talking a lot to Dan (Ekona) about his 911 experience and this is pretty much the car that floats my boat at the moment... similar performance, turns heads and has rear seats plus well in price range. Thanks for all your help Dan. So what next for Tarmac Sportz... bigger and better things, website to come but most of all my dedication. Its just me, I will fly things in from the USA faster than anyone else, try and do things cheaper than anyone else, sort any issues and give advice when and where I can and im available at more times of the day than anyone else... im one of you guys at the end of the day... Selling the Zed will be the hardest thing I ever do but I will be back in one thats for sure and it won't affect the business side or social side of things not having one... except meets and events but im sure I can ride shotgun with someone Thanks for all your support guys I really do appreciate it, without this place the last few months would have been a lot tougher and I will always remember that Chris

The first one is what started my love affair with the Supra The second one has Eva Mendez in Tokyo Drift definately has the best cars in

Great write up Jeff... I've definately heard good things about RS, it's a shame they aren't more active on here

Wowsers watched it a few times now, he takes a pounding as you can see him slam about. Bet he was sore next day, extremely lucky boy

Asda steak is pretty rank Seriously though, two of my closest pals have cocksters and they are awesome

Is that even possible

I take it you can remap the later 996 3.6l models though

Interesting, I didnt realise you could do this without voiding the porsche 10 year warranty.. Is it a package they can apply to earlier models and what exactly does it entail ?

It did take me a fair bit of muscle and sweat but it is do able following the instructions that comes with the knob. I'm sure I bought mine from you when you were first venturing into the business That you did mr P, how things have changed

Im pretty sure only the oil filler cap fits the 370z ... Gear knob changing isn't that bad, think someone should do a guide John

Ease up on the double denim then you can have a set Paul
