    370z BHP

    Probably one for Abbey MS to answer, but AFAIK, it's a bit free'r flowing and the VVTL may play a part, expert answer soon I'd imagine
  2. No drone, at any cruising speed, it only kicks in when you gun it, in any gear, well I don't know about 6th as I would probably have a heart attack flat out in that gear Beautiful proper V6 burble on idle, sounds like it's hiding something much bigger. Whereabouts in Scotland are you? If you're local enough i could meet up with you and you can have a proper appraisal

    z vs rs

    This has aleady happened in the RX8 world, as demographics change and older more cheaply available sports cars get to within the budget of those we may consider chavs, it's an inevitable outcome.
  6. Hi and here's a thread that may interest you viewtopic.php?f=103&t=45314, here's who fitted it http://www.akrapovic.com/car-exhaust/pr ... e0a8ca8ad/ and this is who I bought it off of,
  7. My 370 GT coupe will be available It's only got the Akrapovic on at the moment but there'll not be any external mods by then, spacers maybe that's about it
  8. This is an interesting thread, my youngest just passed her test last week (19yr old) and we were scouring insurers for quotes, Admiral were by far the best quote, this was to insure her on wifeys FR, it then got remarkably cheaper for a multi car policy, the FR, Mini Cooper S, 370 was less than we're all paying collectively at the moment without my youngest on any of the insurances! She's doing her Pass Plus next week and then we're going to take advantage of the offer. As someone said earlier, they charge around 1,000,000,000% for monthly payments but if you can afford it, and pay it in a oner, then it's a great deal
  9. I think the only way is to press the start button but don't depress the clutch, which will put the ignition on without firing up, I might be wrong.
  10. I'm a huge Top Gear fan, but last nights episode was the first time I've ever channel surfed when it's been on! One review? Not even road or track legal! Needs a freshen up to survive. I hope there's a vast improvement for the rest of the series
  11. I just used my old string vest and dyed it black, Rab C lives on

    turkey

    Should handle it no probs, make sure the Nissan assist covers Turkey though.
  13. ......and found that specing up for a GT Pack with Connect Premium, entry illumination and all the mats (this is what I've got), seems a lot more expensive?!? http://www.nissan.co.uk/GB/en/vehicles/ ... ar-builder I don't think it's working properly
  14. I hope none of "The Bastards" are reading this Good kuck, hope it's what you want and you get it, the job that is
  15. Probably get it done in May when I'm in London, just need to work out the logistics
  16. Thanks, I've two sisters who live in Ealing and I'm down for the Army v Navy match at Twickenham on 7th May, so possibilities being formulated In your opinion, as Akrapovic claim 13bhp and 10Nm from just the Evolution system, would there be a significant gain over this, sorry to be a pest.
  17. Can you give an estimate of cost, I've got stock filter and an Akrapovic exhaust. Just in case I'm in your neck of the woods, thanks.
  18. What does the manual say? Yeah I know I should read it
  19. is that a no then Sorry buddy I thought I'd replied to u. I can't get 370z ones at the moment but as soon as they become available I will let you know that would be great, thanks
  20. A young lad that lives across the street (10) was so excited when I got the 370 he ran over and started to drool over the car (previously he had not been known to drool since he was 3 ), anyways he was banging on about how his car on NFS/GT5 (I dunno some computer game) was now a 370 and it was his all time favourite He used to have a 350 but that was too slow he said , so I says to him, if you draw me your best picture of a 370 then I'll take you out for a blast in my real one . Next day he was over, when I was at work, and presents my Mrs with his drawing (I'll post a pic of it, it's actually taped to the screen of an old standalone in my study as a screensaver ). Haven't had the chance to take him out for a spin yet, what with the winter we've been having and now the roads all fooked up with the rain, so I thought that I should give him the calendar for his wall He's now like a dog with two wag ropes He'll probably join the club as well No reflection on the calendar, it's top notch, I got the same as Sam Mcgoo from my mrs So I thought a fitting and proud place for it to go would be to the young lad
