  1. Wow that's a colour and a half. Not to my taste, but that's the whole point of modifying, its individual and unique.
  2. Welcome to the forum pal. Are you planning on travelling to Germany from the UK every so often?
  3. Are these the JDM units? My preference would be the OEM LED Units
  4. Whos maxrevs?? Max revs is a guy who doesn't know what the redline means I believe, as this discussion has taken many different forms haha have a little read its rather interesting.
  5. Seems like everybody has creeped her out now. Hopefully she will post more about her car, as I think this will be an interesting build.
  6. This might be obvious, but did you depress the brake pedal before pressing the switch?
  7. Welcome to the forum. i hope you enjoy your zed​​ you are going to love your zed pal.
  8. Hi Bud, This sounds right up my street, I would recommend downloading the free version of VB.NET as you should be able to build nicer looking GUI than you can in VBA as its very limited to what control you can use. I fancy building something similar, but struggling to get the time as I am building my own desktop application to carry out various engineering tasks such as safety calculations etc. I will keep up-to-date with this, if you require anything regards to programming I may be able to assist
  9. Why does the 350z not have this problem? Sorry for the nerdy explanation. The majority of websites work using large databases. This will the allow users selling on something like auto trader to enter all there data into the online form with anything like 'chicken' 'egg' 'manual' '6.3' in other words doesn't really matter as long as the data is the same type as what the database field requires. The reason why 350z is only shown once could be due to a couple of reasons either all records showing 350 z have been changed by autotrader to 350z or people actually posting on autotrader have entered it correctly in the first place.
  10. If anybody knows of any offshore positions for a system / controls engineer I would be greatful if you could send me the job position to apply for it☺ Mike

  12. You're supposed to flash your headlights! Haha
  13. I always flash and give a wave, but I don't always get the same back, its generally the modified ones which reciprocate
  14. I spoke to the UK Supplier (who used to sell this kit) and they had said that APS no longer sell products or this kit.
  15. This. Love walking past all the boring cars in the car park to get into the Z. I'm going to take the scenic route home tonight. Aye man and then the customary "how come you've used over a quarter tank if you've only been to work and back Phil?" When I only work 5 miles away from home! haha people look at me like im crazy when I tell em how much petrol I go through. People say that I'm crazy at my work, they say why don't you get a sensible car. I just can't do it. I usually put it down to jealousy.
  16. 05 roadster 57k and owned it for just under a year
  17. Mine is the same pal. I thought something was a little wrong. I've had mine for nearly a year now and it still has the same sound to when I first got it.
  18. 25, mines 1150 4yrs ncb, probably expensive because I live in Hull.
  19. Use mine daily, absolutely love this car and now that the weather is warming up. I can listen to the noise of the v6 with the top down. LOVE IT!!!
  20. Ouch, They difficult to replace? How can you find the fault on the banana arm?
  21. I am getting a similar issue. I got the car up over the weekend and had a fiddle around it seems to be the drop links. I've just received a set whiteline front drop links from Clarke Motorsport, hopefully this will resolve the issue. I will provide some feedback once they are fitted.
  22. I am not 100% sure (its ESP) I image that there is a sensor in the steering wheel which is used to tell the BCM the position of the steering wheel if that's not there then the system would likely go into fault i.e. switching ESP off. Somebody may correct this as I haven't had any experience with the Z, but as a Controls Engineer I would image something like above. Regards
  23. My power goals are not massive, I am looking at something around 400bhp not 100% on torque though, just as long as the car is drivable and is able to put the power down. The car will be mainly for show, but will use for fast road. I will be changing the clutch and if I need to uprate internals to cope with the added power then yes, as I would still like it to be relatively reliable. My car is a 2005 reg.
