  1. Quite funny...although why they have a Japanese flag hanging in the China I am not sure...maybe its a deliberate mistake...but then again its American.
  2. I was just taking a break from ebay
  3. Bear with it...very cool I think
  4. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Nissan-350Z-Bonnet-/200660472880?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item2eb84bd430
  5. I have met some guys who work in the research department for Talk Talk and even they admit that their customer service and some of the broadband speeds were shocking. At least though they were aware of it and some of the research they were presenting showed that they are investing in improving the speeds etc. That said, it doesn't mean they are outstripping the market performance wise with these improvements, more that there are trying to hang onto the coat tails of the likes of BT/Sky/Virgin etc.
  6. Was obviously very difficult - they've done away with it on the 370z Another added feature the 370 misses out on...us 350s are such lucky owners My wife did it as well, whilst she was in a petrol station! So couldnt get the damn thing open!
  7. It is bizarre that in a Zed they couldnt fit a button that just stays in. Mine has done it as well...
  8. ...£300 Seibon 5 months old...I was tempted but must sort out front bumper first http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Nissan-350z-seibon-Carbon-Bonnet-2002-2006-/150672217547?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item2314c395cb
  9. RIP Mr Jobs...I see him more of a doer than a thinker, sure other people might be considerd smarter, invented stuff before he did and are proper innovators but he was a doer, he spotted opportunity and went for it. People laughed at Apple when they launched a touch screen phone a few years ago - I do know that the apparent 'smart folk' at Nokia were laughing in the boardroom when Apple launched iPhone and said they were taking on the then world handset leaders. He took Apple computing from potential bankrupty to a global presence, never afraid to actually go and build something innovative and go for it whilst other 'smarter' philosophers sat on their hands. No, he didn't invent things, instead he had the guts to put himself and his company on the line time and again when others wouldnt dare try.
  10. I already costed up the courier as well Reckon it might be a little too aggressive for my car though...
  11. Good work mate...yes you get the Nissan history at the dealerships but if the car is out of warranty there is no guarantee that some 19 year old at a dealership doing a £300 job is going to do it any better than someone with an eye for mechanics. I recently did mine with my father, we spent about 5 hours in total going over it with a fine tooth comb, changed pads, belts, sparks, oil in engine, diff, gearbox etc etc car runs miles better now, total cost £130

    350Z Panamera

    I just wonder why turn it into one of the most hideous looking Porsches ever designed...at least convert it into a 350z Dino or something!
  13. Yeah its going to save you jack all money - ok if you are pumping 16m barrels a day or whatever 0.1% is important, for your 30 litres at a fill up that 0.1% is intangible. You can save more money by just not booting it away from the lights...
  14. I got a loud clunking on some of my gear changes but had a member off here try the car and confirm its just a normal 'feature' of the car. If you are worried still run the car over to the likes of Abbey/RS etc who can confirm what it is. Otherwise head along to one of the meets and you can listen try out other Zeds for comparison - and welcome you made a good purchase
  15. You also have the option of having it remapped once you bought the license - so dont have to wait until you have splashed the cash on all that stuff.
  16. Yeah what happened (says the guy who test drove Wills roadster yesterday and loved the sound and likes Berks now...)
  17. I looked at the prices on AT of Zeds under 10k and black was on average one of the more higher valued ones - seems to be less of them about.
  18. Well...had a drive of Will's roadster and there is a knock, similar to mine, but about 10% of the volume...guess it is a 'feature' but just a special one as its much louder! Cheers for checking that out Will. Think I will save the money and buy something else instead..
