  1. Pics of the 370 please. So wanted one of these but the write ups were mixed. Makes sense that they should be a better car as Nissan always go the extra mile. Think they are all great cars in their own way though. As you asked so nicely... Before the wheel refurb... After the wheel refurb... Thank you...
  2. What a shiny car! I don't know how long you've had it for, but I can see it's the same variant as my old '56 plate (a MY06). Some of these burned oil rapidly, so if you're a new owner keep checking the dipstick regularly - once per weekl. People who failed to check their oil sometimes found themselves with a blown up engine (expensive repair).
  3. Don't worry about the horse dung. In a couple of months time, when you've voted for independence, you'll be able to make a nice new Horse Fouling (Scotland) Act 2014. The problem for you personally is that police horses will most likely be exempt. In the meantime if there's so much of it, just collect it & sell it - surprised you haven't thought of that one already
  4. Three - in 2004 (gunmetal 53 plate), in 2006 (black 56 plate) and my lovely silver '10 plate 370z in 2011. I must say the 370z is light years ahead of the 350's in terms of creature comforts and it's significantly more powerful from stock than my either my 276bhp or my 296bhp 350's were. Fingers crossed that there is a 4-pot turbo Z replacement just around the corner - then it will be four. ...and a big part of me would love a 240z, 280 z or 300zx.
  5. Personally, I like to put it on my strawberries. I prefer some cream on mine but each to their own..... The old ones are the best!!!

  7. The title of this thread attracted my attention, as 2 days ago I had 30 rubble sacks filled to the brim with horses poo in my "other vehicle" (campervan). However, I wouldn't dream of putting one single lump of dog poo in it - so I'm afraid I can't quite agree with your assertion. As far as I'm concerned, there's poo and - - - there's poo.
  8. Hello & welcome, from yet another Herts owner (Hertford area). I used to have a 56 plate black 350 - loved that car. Edited to delete a stupid 'spotted' that never was! The car I saw was a 370.
  9. When you're in the Music Box screen, do the following... 1. tap 'Menu' 2. tap 'Music Box Settings' 3. tap 'Delete Track' ...then follow the options, to delete either individual tracks or entire albums.
  10. ...coming towards me, heading towards Ware, being driven by a gentleman of relatively mature years. Spookily, at first I thought it was me, but then I realised I was on the other side of the road, and I was in my campervan. .....and mine's a 10 plate
  11. Did you manage to offload the jewellery for a decent price? Surely it covered the cost of the parking ticket, so why the moaning?
  12. I thought the 70 only has 40 on the front? Well mine does! ooops - you may well be right. This has crossed my mind but I love them too much Thanks for all the useful advice, I'll stick with the correct size. Currently I have FK453's fitted by the previous owner, same on the front, I'll likely get the same again I've had no problems with them. I like Falkens too.
  13. Your current tyres are the correct size for a 350z - I have exactly the same wheels/tyres. It's possible to get 40's - in fact, it's what the stock rears on the 370z have. I just run my 350z LMGT4's on my 370z and they are fine (I think they handle better than the stock wheels). Personlly I'd just accept the bumps in the road - spending shitloads of cash on new tyres won't make any difference.
  14. Should polish out. ...sorry, but it was way overdue.
  15. 1. Press & hold the window button in the down position. Keep pushing the button for 15 seconds after the window has opened completely. 2. Now, lift & hold the same button to shut the window, keeping the button held up for 15 seconds after the window has shut completely. Does that work?
  16. I've got a camera with pre-installed gridlines and I'd like to get rid of them. How sure are you that it's just a piece of clear film in front of the ccd, before I go taking my camera apart? Also, I'll re-emphasise what you've been saying about your kits being only suitable for 2010 model cars onwards - the ones with Connect Premium stereo/satnav systems. My system, which was built & supplied by someone from 'the other place' is exactly as you describe - and it works beautifully. I cannot recommend them highly enough, because, as anyone with a 370 knows, rear visibility is quite dodgy.
  17. I think he was just reversing two of the letters.
  18. He sells the 350z ones aswell, shoot him a pm http://www.350z-uk.c...essories-sales/ It's the first mod anyone should do, imho. Great result for very little outlay or effort - my kind of mod.
  19. Did you manage to keep the little plastic bit? Here's a link to the double-ended screws I bought, in case you want to try a similar repair... CLICK HERE Erm, sorry, can't remember. I have a range of techniques that I employ to achieve this outcome and I forget which one I used on this particular occasion. It will definitely have been speed-related.
  20. Your wife is absolutely right here. I did the same thing a few years ago - reversed into the side of my wife's car on our driveway, creating the most ugly big dent in the side of it, BECAUSE SHE DIDN'T PARK IT WHERE SHE ALWAYS PARKS IT. Naturally it was her fault, but strangely, even to this day, she tries to blame me. Just man-up and admit that you made a mistake.
  21. ...as long as there aren't hidden problems, if it's been in a knock (and I'm not saying it has). Personally I like the base model - you're not restricted by the evil tentacles of the distinctly average Bose audio system (apart from the satnav/touch screen element of it, which is very good) and you don't have the unnecessary gimmick of synchro rev match. If I were to buy a brand new 370z I would go for the base model - it's easier to improve the audio.
  22. Fitted mine the other day - delighted with it. Asad asked me if I'd post a pic - and as he's doing them for such a good price it's the least I could do... Thanks Asad.
