  1. onto you tube...it runs about 5 seconds longer than the sky clip, shows people on the ground just stood around stunned yards from the imapct zone - still amazed how they got away with no deaths http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BcTDwJcO_os
  2. Yes Oh and nice work - nothing like a freshly cleaned black zed, best colour of course
  3. http://news.sky.com/home/world-news/article/16194108 Watch the vid, incredible no one was hurt.
  4. Colour...not seen many cars that vary in price as much as the Zed based on colour.
  5. i think aircraft carrier is quiet apt, i'm the same length as a big estate car, and wider than most cars. it does feel like a 5 min walk from one end to the other. the body kit gets rid of the roundness from underneath the car which empersised the gap to the floor. with more square edges and nose it widens the car up and lowers in visually. at the moment its only going to be the rear bumper as its going to be part of the rust cure measure It actually made it look more like a recent Aston
  6. ..I meant as in you would know what your car is running and that it wasn't running low.
  7. Come sale time for c5upe whenever that may be I will be whipping off the wheels/exhaust/hfcs/spacer/uprev for the sale, just not worth it. Sometimes you might find a buyer on here who is planning to mod and wants it predone, in which case you could negotiate the price up a bit I would guess...
  8. I know mate, just pulling your leg. I think for the money, in stock mode, the Zed looked better and wasn't like boarding an aircraft carrier so went that way. The bodykit does look nice, it certainly makes for a more modern looking car
  9. ...another good reason for the dyno and uprev you know you are getting the full power version!
  10. Mine went suddenly at around 45k, bought it at 39k miles though. I would say 40k-50k would be average from seeing various posts on here over the last year.
  11. its alright you can keep your hot wheels car, i''m happy with my mans car I did actually consider a Jag XK, but the fact you can walk under it and the back end is in a different post code to the rest of the car I decided against it... ...seriously though, they do themselves no favours with that wood look interior shame really as it does as you say have some good points for the money.
  12. My dad got in mine and complained about the clutch, the ride, the interior, the gear shift and the visibility...
  13. because you tend to find owners clubs over value their cars compared to what the rest of the world value them at. with petrol getting ever more expensive by the month you'd be suprised at how fast the value of a big engine car starts to drop. people who can't afford to run them want rid quick so sell low, and those looking to buy want a bargain because they are buying a big engine in expensive times. Dealerships offer low PX on them as they know they'll struggle to shift a big engine compared to an eco car. Value wise, a UK car with this spec is not £6.5k though. Had a quick scan on AutoTrader and they are minimum £8k mark for private sale. Although this isn't the actual sale price, I am sure they aren't selling some 25%-30% lower than that. As for 'club owners' - I am actually finding a lot of the valuations on here under what is being offered on PH, AT and the like. If this is based on people monitoring many actual sales over many months then fair enough, but it seems the opposite is happening, that on here the valuation is too harsh
  14. Be good to finally see it, I was hanging around for this last year and ended up modifying my original bumper but seems it is finally there.

  16. I think that was the biggest disappointment, all those stickers, when the bonnet came up...STANDARD Yes I spotted the TRD as well, bizarre!
  17. ...I think he needs a few more stickers on it http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Nissan-350z-2003-Full-Nismo-Bodykit-Pearl-White-54-000-miles-and-immaculate?item=150780147316
  18. I can imagine there were substantial improvements to those early god awful gearboxes!
  19. Love it, could never lower it like that where I live though!
  20. Never done it myself either but what will apparently happen is that it will be held by the delivery company UK side and you will be charged by them before they deliver it. If there is nothing in your invoice that covers 'Import Duty' chances are you will be charged.
