  1. I asked Prestige on here about supercharging when I joined them, they estimated quiting about £1 per BHP for me, so an extra £160 -£180 ish I guess for 313ps to 480bhp. They also didn't up my premium at all when I added coilovers etc as they consider it safer rather than riskier (e.g: more power).
  2. Didn't Toyota have a Supra designed for ages that they planned on releasing as soon as the won an F1 championship? Maybe they've finally given up on that goal! I really thought Toyota were going to do better in F1 than they have done.
  3. A bit of "chattering" from the clutch is normal, don't think I've heard of whining from the transmission being normal though, if you're unsure walk away, there's loads around. Also look at the member cars for sale forum on here: http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/51-zeds-for-sale/ Trade Link usually have a good selection of Zs stock, they're on here but seem to get a mixed response. Basically people seem to complain about their cars being overpriced, but you're paying extra for good service and warranty etc so in my view it's probably worth it to get a good car if they have what you're after: http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/202-trade-link/
  4. I was going to get one, but considering none of my photos made it in I think I'll leave it.
  5. Do you use the '2 on track? We had a few Mk2 Tubbys for track use and the Yoko AD08s were amazing on track. Hence why I bought them for my Z.
  6. Looking at the red car above though, the cusco does appear to fit without spacers/washers and looks lower that the OEM brace so the bonnet shouldn't be a problem. Not sure if the strut actually touching the engine cover would cause damage over time though (e.g: cracking the engine cover)?
  7. I'd pay £150 incl postage etc if it was titanium with such a nice burn.
  8. I always wanted the Zele one, but for £200 + postage and tax it seems to much:
  9. What do you mean camping or am i just being daft? People sitting in corners waiting for people to move past them etc. I usually don't mind as I can run around and shoot them from behind, but on Ghosts it seems like 80% of people are camping so I get killed by one, move towards where he's sitting and get killed by another corner dweller on the way. Move towards the closest of the two campers and get taken out by a 3rd person sitting in a corner... and then probably spawn 6 foot in front of one of them facing the other away and get shot in the back just to really wind me up. I think it's mainly to do with the map design. And don't even get me started on the broken spawn system: [media] [/media]
  10. I was just looking to see what games are out soon as Ghosts is annoying the hell out of me with all the camping etc. Dark Soul's II is out in March, can't wait! I quite like COD, GTA, GT etc, but Demon's/Dark souls is probably the only game series I could get excited about a new one coming out. An enemy... oh I'm dead, a door... oh I'm dead, an item I can pick up... I'm dead, a bridge... and a dragon... I'm dead again, oh I'm dead and I don't even know what killed me now, ah crap a Boss... I'm dead, dead, dead, dead, ooh I've damaged it.. I'm dead... probably isn't to everyone's tastes though. It's nice that some games are still challenging, even on the hardest difficulty the COD series seems too easy on singleplayer.
  11. Thanks all, unfortunately I'm been cooped up at home for the last few days with a cold! Hopefully I feel better tomorrow so that I can get out and have a few birthday drinks!
  12. Really, I thought the RE050s were great tyres (not as good as MPSS or AD08s though) and are meant to be better than the Falkens. You sure they aren't the dreaded RE040s?
  13. Maybe he cleaned his car yesterday but had some great fun driving on that day?
  14. Damn, back to the drawing board then. Tarmac! Get your finger out and make a HR strut brace!
  15. Apart from being red I don't really see much difference in style between OEM and Tanabe, hardly seems worth it to me. Let me know about your own brand though and I'm happy to provide a HR test car if needed. I believe this is the Cusco one on a HR, looks like a tight fit:
  16. I keep hoping Tim does a group training weekend down at his new (ish) warehouse. I'd happily stay in a hotel for a night and spend a weekend detailing my car under Tim's instruction/tea making.
  17. I'm in the market for a strut brace myself, but for a HR. Don't think the GT-spec fits the HR, think the Cusco one might... anyone know for sure?
  18. Noone's pointed out the ginger Roadster?
  19. £61 for the "350Z" badge on the back?!? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Nissan-Genuine-350Z-Chrome-Badge-Emblem-Rear-Boot-Trunk-84895CD10A-/290896171174?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&fits=Cars+Year%3A2007|Car+Make%3ANissan|Model%3A350+Z&hash=item43bac350a6
  20. Hi Jerrick, I doubt you'll get many 350Z owners fitting 15s. Haydn.
  21. Errr that's not an option.
  22. I bought a macbook pro 15" on Friday, I should have waited but couldn't do without the forum a laptop for a week.

    You can update the disc for the sat nav to get road layout changes, but it doesn't add extra functionality like postcodes unfortunately. Once you get used to the sat nav I find it's actually a very good system, I found it really useful when trying to drive over the Swiss alps and the route was taking me on the train underneath, just grab a way point and drag it to the twisty roads, et voila. Postcodes and speed cameras would be a nice addition though.
  24. Sorry I have a complaint, the free Haribo were such poor build quality they only lasted 5 minutes!! Other than that, excellent service.
