Hi all not sure if I want to do this but been offered a good deal on something else I fancy. If I can keep both I will For sale is my 2003 A/T Skyline 350GT auto/tiptronic with Premium Pack. I am the second UK owner after purchasing this from a colleague who imported it via Bristol Import Centre in 2006. I purchased the car completely stock with just over 54K on the clock with all documentation, full Jap and UK service history, 2 extra keys and HPI clear. Here is a brief overview of whats been done to the car in my ownership; Currently sat at just over 68K on the clock, been serviced every 4000 mile or yearly whichever has come first, all work carried out by local performance garage with OEM or upgraded service items, paperwork and receipts to backup. Middle of last year I replaced all fluids, belts and plugs, it was serviced (oil and filter) again in December. 3 weeks ago I replaced all discs and pads with uprated items. Mot is due august and tax is due September Brief overview of the car; Exterior; 19" forged rays alloys with Vrsodetstein tyres (plenty of tread in fronts, rears are about 3mm) Nismo centre caps Also available 18†350z wheels with Falken 452 tyres (6mm tread all round) 25mm Superforma spacers all round Lowered on Tenzo R springs all round EBC Discs and Pads all round Japspeed K2 Exhaust Decatted Nismo style Front Lip (from US) Tow hole cover plate (from US) Nismo style Front Grill (from US) Clear/Amber/Black sidemarkers (I have all sets) Uprated bulbs Painted black front intakes Plastidipped rear valance Debadged Factory fitted spoiler Interior; JDM screen English menu conversion (only one in uk) Aux in Cable Ecudatascan Digital diagnostics and live stat monitor Momo short shift auto stick Engine; Strut bar (from US) Custom carbon fibre engine cover H-Dev grounding kit H-Dev Plenum spacer kit Evolution Foundry power steering cover Custom master cylinder cover Painted plenum black Samco hose kit Conceptua tuning oil cap Conceptua tuning radiator cap Extras; Driftworks black steel wheel nuts (new) OEM front grille in black OEM springs OEM cats 2 x Extra Halfords Batteries Bad points: I will try and be as honest as possible when describing the faults. Car is 11 years old so it has some age related marks and scuffs, rear arches have been rolled and sealed by Arch Enemy but drivers is bubbling ever so slightly Front seats have usual bolster wear Some small stone chips in windscreen To conclude this is a great car that could do with some TLC to be perfect, it has never let me down and I will be sad to see it go after 4+ years of ownership. Car is located in Swindon, Wiltshire Some phone pics, will add more pics later;

....annoyed isnt the word....(NOT annoyed anymore!)
saihaynes replied to SkylineV35's topic in 350Z General
haha try not to let it stress you out too much if you look on skyline owners youll see ive had someone smash my nearside wing, bonnet blew up in wind and bent entire front end, splitter has been destroyed numerous times etc.....all sent to test us dude -

saihaynes replied to SkylineV35's topic in 350Z General
Ah we've all been there dude, its horrible when your pride and joy takes a bump especially when it could have been avoided! alex over on skyline owners had the same thing happen to his 350gt and they were able to pull most of the damage and fill the rest, definitely worth trying to source from alex or another breakers bud...the other option of course is drop 1.2k amd bet the seibon carbon fiber set -

saihaynes replied to SkylineV35's topic in 350Z General
a new door will set you back £1200 from nissan, might be worth checking with zmanalex and a couple of the breakers on ebay although by the time youve had it color matched i suspect it will be non cost effective! how bad is the damage? will any of the denting pull out? sai -
Amazing

Can I get MacBook Air 13" quality but for less?
saihaynes replied to Wasso's topic in Off Topic Discussion
Yep, Ubuntu, etc You can run Mac OS X 10.9, Windows 8 and Ubuntu on the same Mac, either booting through EFI or in virtual machines: Parallels, VMWare Ugh, virtualization? Why bother on a desktop unless you're actually planning on using the underlying OS as well, or if you have to run a crappy OS (Windows) and would prefer it to run on top aof a good OS. Via EFI means native though right? Will have to read up on that. when you support osx, win and nix environments its a must day to day my os of use and choice is osx -

saihaynes replied to Wasso's topic in Off Topic Discussion
I contract a fair bit for Apple and have been a fanboy since the early days so definitely vote for going the air route, the only thing i would say is dependant of the level of video editing you do you may find yourself needing something with a bit more juice, I tend to use my pro for fcpx and logic x whilst the air is used more for imovie, garageband etc As others have said once you go mac you wont go back
