  1. Fair enough. Will be interested to see what bumper you end up with. Re: The filter position ~ more or less exactly where I had mine & imo it'll get plenty of air flow. Much better place for it than where the standard Vortech filter is usually placed and also a larger surface area so better again, ...but you know all that.
  2. Bonsoir Ken. Welcome aboard and lovely looking Zed you have.
  3. I really can't say why it's not working for you but all I can say is that I used to have a Pioneer double din DVD unit in my old Zed which was fitted locally by an audio specialist. It was wired up with the original Bose equipment which all still worked plus all my steering wheel controls still worked with the unit. Some threads of interest which may help: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/15611-what-you-need-to-upgrade-your-350z-audio-system/ http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/55445-wiring-in-a-new-hu-this-guide-may-help/ http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/84472-busters-mod-without-hacking-the-head-unit-harness/ http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/58947-reduced-sound-out-put-after-replacing-oe-bose/ You may also might want to try a PM on here to a member called Buster (part of the Zed Shed crew) as I'm pretty sure he's done more than one or two ICE installs on the old Zeds so should be able to give you some help/pointers. Link: http://www.350z-uk.com/user/11228-buster/ Hope that helps.
  4. It's a "festoon" bulb you need, around 36mm long I believe. If you just want a standard bulb then you should be able to walk into a Halfords branch locally to pick one up.
  5. I think we can all agree that we learnt everything we know from watching "Traffic Cops" or *insert other Police show here* and in no other way.
  6. Yep drugs aren't just for the rich. Doesn't cost a lot at all for small amounts and the worse bit I think nowadays is that kids/young adults can get drugs off the internet!, ...some of which are sold as "legal highs" but are actually more dangerous or addictive or psychosis inducing than the old fashion illegal drugs imo.
  7. What's wrong with your bumper then? I know it's OEM just with some canards/lower lip but still looks good imo.
  8. You could buy a small bag for (I'm guessing ) £10-£20 odd and that'd be enough easily to stink out a car/room if it was Skunk. So not enough for a slam panel George unfortunately.
  9. My thoughts exactly. Maybe theres a Henry or something stashed somewhere. Should provide a good weekends entertainment stripping the car down lol! I really hope the Op finds something, ...maybe an ounce or something though rather than just an 1/8th just to make it more entertaining.
  10. Then he'll have to find a hell of a lot of weed if he wants anything other than just some valve caps or a stubby aerial.
  11. Hydro dipping AKA water transfer printing is definitely your best bet for this imo. I had it done on my old Zed a few years ago by "AquaGraphix" and it was around £70 including delivery for them to prep, spray, dip & lacquer both my door switch panels plus the grab handle strip. Link here to my thread about it with pictures: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/86048-hydro-dipped-interior-parts-door-pulls-grab-handle/ Two professional traders on here who will be able to give you more help, pattern options & current pricing etc. Eve@AquaGraphix: http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/227-aquagraphix/ Ricey@rEvolveAutomotive: http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/220-revolve-automotive-ltd/ Also it can make things easier if you purchase some spare door switch panels and just send those off for dipping if your car is a daily driver as mine was (saves driving around for a week or two with the interior in pieces). Zmanalex should be able to help you out with those if you do need spares: http://www.350z-uk.com/user/9648-zmanalex/ Also you could always try dipping for yourself as I have. It will be more cost effective for you just to pay a professional to do it for you though but I enjoy doing what I can myself so invested some cash in the set up to do it as I know I'm going to want more parts dipped on cars I own etc in the future. Link: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/102662-tried-my-hand-at-hydro-dipping-aka-water-transfer-printing/ Any questions just ask.
  12. Gorgeous motor but even if I could afford it I'd never pay that for it. Cool though.
  13. I did say "if" we ever need to. I'm good for now though thanks. TMI??!
  14. That happens with age. It's ok, ...we can get pills for that if we ever need too.
  15. We're all in agreement though on the Aston though right? It's not good ~ well apart from the engine (& Dan likes the interior).
  16. When you do Adrian can I have a pound please for everyone you count, ...pretty sure that'd make me a millionaire.
  17. It was just lots of slidey Zeds Gareth. Is that the technical term?
  18. Now I'm wondering if you're 100% certain about that is this because it's your old car & you hid it there?!! ....or speaking from experience?
  19. I knew someone years & years ago who used to hide his weed inside his steering wheel where his airbag should have been. Still, it didn't stop him getting caught by the Police with a 1/2 ounce of Skunk & getting into quite a bit of trouble.
  20. That's far too easy and I'm sure he would have found it by now if it was in there. Could be underneath the ashtray, maybe just beneath the steering wheel column or somewhere else slightly less obvious like hidden behind the dashboard maybe.
