  1. Cheers mate, I'd definitely recommend replacing the paper clarion/bose speakers though. I'm no audiophile but they really arent the best mate of mine has a pretty big collection of audio stuff from previous cars and his skyline's previous upgrades. see what he can sort out for me.
  2. if you want someone to build it for you, a mate of mine does it. www.nodetechnology.co.uk drop him an email and he should be able to give you more information. jason@nodetechnology.co.uk
  3. my excuse is just got it and havent moced it yet. not a good one, but thats it
  4. welcome from another n00b. i have had mine since friday and there are a lot of speed humps round me, no problems so far.
  5. very nice man, looking to get a sub and amp in mine in the next few weeks, no other changes planned as of yet though.
  6. i think i will go and get the spare key fob out of my car right now. before i make a similar mistake.
  7. the guy with the zed must have gone into the back of the other guy. pretty quickly too. i wonder if it was filmed on any cctv, would be interesting to watch.
  8. LPG cars HAVE to use petrol for the first 2 - 3 (min) miles after start up. If you have a short commute it's not worth it. Remember that LPG gets a minimum of 10% less MPG on LPG. This fiqure is more likely to be 15-20% though. LPG has it place.... and that's in V8 jeeps. a valid point about the v8 jeeps. i shall be steering clear of the lpg place, although the industrial estate has amazing straight and clear stretch for drag racing.
  9. had stuff to get done so i have been driving around in a tipper truck all morning, while it was dry, now the roads are wet and i'm off out for a spin. (hopefully not literally)
  10. not a bad plan, tbh i dont think i will do enough miles to justify the cost of the conversion
  11. i just bought mine yesterday and paid for a years tax, they told me 405 but then it went up to 435 the day they taxed it. a mate told me i could get it cheaper though maybe its an online discount
  12. believe me, i don't want it done, i just have people constantly suggesting it. i think i will work out how long it will take to save the initial cost.
  13. i may be risking an instant from the forum, but i just want to ask if anyone has considered an lpg conversion? don't really want to do it but with the price of fuel constantly constantly climbing it is obviously and option. cheers for thoughts
  14. Thanks everyone. I actually paid a little more than i could have because i prefered this colour. i am so happy Maccaman - I also have a matching colour cat. he is awesome, if your signature pic is still right that is.
  15. thanks everyone for welcom messages. thanks marzman for the tip, figured until i am used to it i will only put my foot down in a straight line even in the dry, which luckily it has been all day. until about 9 anyway. and you are so right, what a great feeling!
  16. Hey all, just bought my 05 fairlady Z today, picked it up at half and managed to put 150 miles on the clock showing her off to my mates. oops. as shes the imported version the sat nav is all in japanese, have already pm'd nurrish as i've read he has a good solution. very happy with the car but have to admit, as shes my first powerful car and first rear wheel drive car i am pretty scared of her hopefully will develop a respectful relationship with her soon. glad to be a member and hope to get involved in some meets in the northeast. matt
