  1. I do agree that 6000rpm+ the engine does sound like its going to create a black hole - not doubting it doesn't sound amazing until that though
  2. At idle, if you open or close the electric window (or turn the steering wheel) the revs drop by 100-150RPM
  3. Love the look of this! And congrats on the 350z - any pics of that?
  4. Really like the look of those - not sure how they will look on a 350z though, maybe someone can photoshop?
  5. I'm not aware of anywhere you can get black badges - but would presume it would just be cheaper to respray your own!
  6. Where the 2 lanes merge into one just before the pub on the left and where the old Ford garage was on the right? He must have hit you with some force! Know that place well! Scary
  7. Oh wow... And here was me about to ask why you were comparing a 350z and an A3! That is some serious damage... hope you're okay! Any pictures of how the A3 faired?
  8. Looks great - is that an original colour? ps - these pictures make me wish I had my own garage!
  9. Interesting - i'm in Kent this weekend might give it a look if I can convince someone to come
  10. Also checked and the 350z isn't mentioned (this may be because people forget the 350z is made by Nissan though...)
  11. haha thanks - I'm feeling a bit jealous looking at the cars they've had in their garage though
  12. MoT is due next month so looking at where to have it done and how much it's likely to cost. My last car was new so have never actually had an MoT before Any recommendations in or around Reading to get your MoT done? Cheers!
  13. I considered the z4m but a lot of reviews said the ride was ridiculously hard/stiff and didn't cope with UK roads very well - might be worth a test drive (I never got round to it, the 350z pulled me in )
  14. I've never understood why people do this.
  15. What an odd set of events! And wow at the price of a rear window...
  16. Always loved the XJ220 when I was little Oh and the Audi Quattro was made until 1991
  17. Yeah the 350z does seem to tram-line a lot - especially compared to my last car! Just makes you hold the steering wheel properly anyway
  18. cs2000 - your pics dont seem to be working! Was quite intrigued to see your solution
  19. Nice work! Loved both of those shows
  20. Looking good mate! I saw some videos about the gunmetal plastidip and did think it looked a bit like primer... They've just brought out a new colour called 'Charcoal Grey' which is apparently more like what people were hoping gunmetal would be.
  21. Yes it is possible as I was going to do this with mine before I sold my iPhone. You can get an iPhone to USB & Aux cable (see here http://www.amazon.co...g/dp/B002ATMN22) You would just connect the 3.5mm jack as the other guide suggests; you would then need a USB/car charger adapter (to act as a transformer as USB is 5v) then just plug the usb into this behind the dash. Hope that makes sense. Haven't actually done this mod as I said I got rid of my iPhone, but I can't see any reason it wouldn't work. EDIT: Just seen that you didn't want to hardwire the iPhone cable. You could just wire both a USB socket and a 3.5mm socket into your cubby and then plug in the cable I linked above - should work?
