This is very true and I appreciate where you're coming from, I was just trying to make a more general point (hence my mention of the Brazilian guy too) not defend this particular bloke. We all know that if you play with fire, you may well explode. I'd like to think you'd have to have a gun to be shot by the cops. As you say, he threw it away. If a soldier shot another soldier who threw down his weapon, that wouldn't be "acceptable" either. Anyway, I'm not defending the man, I just get the fear when we have armed police shooting someone unarmed and apparently no one has done anything incorrectly procedurally, I think it could be a slippery slope before we possibly drift too far.

Shame about that, you don't see many yellows. Good luck with New Zed!

Except the gun they found nearby had none of his DNA or fingerprints on it and an eye witness said he was shot, whilst holding a phone and surrendering to the police. However, I don't want to defend someone who was allegedly a career crim and all I know has come from the press/web, but sometimes I feel the circumstances are a bit off IMHO. You only have to recall the totally innocent Brazilian bloke (was it De Menezes?) who got shot repeatedly in the face for being guilty of running for a tube train and looking 'a bit swarthy' a few weeks after 7/7, oh and the CCTV that day from the tube station had a technical fault... No one was sent down for that either IIRC. They're not supposed to be Judge Judy & Executioner

Interesting what you're saying AMT, I could not agree more with the last bit about most people never having 300bhp. I get plenty of questions along the lines of, "Why have such a powerful lump/non-economical car? My Focus is really quick" etc etc. Coming from a variety of rental cars, some as big as 2.0 NA , getting in the Zed for the first time was like nothing on earth, a blend of excitement and terror at what the loud pedal can do. It wasn't just a new league, it was a different sport!

Na truck still got wheels... Please put down and step away from your copies of The Daily Mail

When I get in any car and start it, it becomes a hyper car Where does a Cayman fit in? Reason I ask is they keep winking at me when I'm driving past them... I think Dan's bandings are pretty fair, but the category Sports Saloon needs to be under Sports - too much compromise and they don't have a sports soul underneath.

Top order all out of form at the same time, usually there's a couple in good nick which can get some decent numbers but they were all just not at the races. Also the 3-0 win in the summer was slightly flattering IMHO. I don't think the Oz team is anything special.

Wow. That's brilliant. Perfect for a daily driver and to keep the Zed off the road in winter.

Noticed mine was snapped off during my MOT, hadn't noticed it when I was driving up to that point if I am honest, but it felt smoother after it was reconnected.

Driving with no hands is one thing, but when's the safety camera coming that can detect if someone is driving with no brains

Good guide, Is it worth dropping in whilst you're doing this awesome almost free mod, that this is an excellent opportunity to lose the boot weight and give your boot pop half a chance of clearing?

Looks sweet grundy, works especially well with the wheels

Eat two packets of prawn cocktail crisps then two packets of scampi fries then be sure to breathe heavily towards anyone who approaches and mentions any one of: Soaps Little Timmy Reality TV Weather What happened over Winterval Anything in the Daily Mail Floods Wind The ongoing crisis in Syria Scratch the last one, no one talks about that when there's a dance based contest on TV.

My passenger window drop was intermittent, I tried the reset, taking the door card off and resetting on the motor, in the end it was the little door open/closed sensor/nipple in the door shut. If I recall, it made a clicky noise when I touched it with the door open and the window jumped up and down. Just popped it off and reseated it, sorted now! http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/73582-window-reset-works-for-a-while-then-doesnt-auto-drop/

A Veilside V1 lip from Tarmac Sportz, on my Zed, colour coded. I really, really like it, if I do say so myself

It's so fit, must resist and save for house.

along, I like the first second one personally but you've got to live with it Have you consider the Veilside?

Didn't want to jump, so gone for the Bosch - cheers all for your help, this place rules.

Cheers Neil. I'm just getting suspicious of these as I've had some poor experiences on bulbs and other bits not fitting after the magic plate search (not from ECP I might add).

That fit in ok at 270 long?

Thats great to know as it save me opening the bonnet (and more importantly windows up doors) to release it, to get the dimensions. Which are, in case anyone finds this thread on a search Dimension (LxDxH): 232x173x225mm

Cheers for specifics peeps, I've got something to shoot for now. Just out of interest, I rang local Halfords after the website fail (I know, I know, I shouldn't have bothered) they told me they don't have them and can't order them It's a good job you lot know what you're on about, thanks!

I'd not really thought about this, but it makes total sense (especially with my tunes cranked up) I only have a short commute (about 10 mins each way) but I'd been on a long blast to Leeds the day before I went away and also upto the Lakes a few days before that so it's not like it hadn't had a good few hours run... I'll bear this in mind in future though, gosh darn it - this means I HAVE to go driving now, just for the sake of it thanks!
