Same as Vlad Chris ~ I have the passenger side washer bottle which is the one for the headlight washers. Let me know if you need that one & you don't have Vlads off him.

Welcome aboard. For local/regional and national meets/shows etc have a look in this section here. Link: http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/20-meets-shows-and-events/ Enjoy the new Zed.

^^ Yep very subtle. Lovely bit of American old school muscle car though.

If I couldn't get the R35 GTR for whatever reason then I'd quite like any of the following... Porsche 911 MK997 Carrera 4S Porsche 911 MK996 Turbo Audi R8 (if one came into budget which I suspect it wouldn't) Nissan 370Z Nismo Edition (plus some "goodies" from some of the traders on here to make it have a bit more go. ) Noble M12 TVR Cerbera 4.5Ltr V8 (my old man used to have one when I was younger & I always fancied one) Dodge Charger R/T 1969 (again if one came into budget) Jaguar XKR (supercharged V8 RWD ~ what's not to like ) Lotus Exige S2 Lotus Exige S3 (if one in budget) Toyota Supra Turbo (specifically one with an engine like this: http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/toyota/supra/toyota-supra-widebody-1000hp/5110576?v= I could go on but don't worry I won't.

Hover your cursor arrow over Parello's user name and you'll see the "send message" icon pop up. If you send him a PM (private message) on here then you'll get a quicker response as it will also send him a message to his private email address.

Oh I get that and it is good of you, ...just a pity someone on the forum couldn't have bought it from you in the first place though as no doubt they'll pay a lot more than what you wanted for it.
-
That is quite a mark up there but tbh I'm not surprised BBK. It gives them a lot more wriggle room should a buyer want to haggle the price or a lot more profit should someone less savvy walk in & pay that.
-
^^ Not sure the poly tunnel's a cheaper option than the inflatable garage bubble but it is most definitely a cooler option SHEZZA.
-
Fair enough only mentioned it in case you had previously taken a picture of it on your Zed. GLWTS again.
-
Approved but do you have a picture of it on your Zed just for the buyers to see? just a thought (if not I'm sure they can google it). GLWTS.
-
...But "because rally car."
-
Definitely get a garage if you can, ...otherwise there is another cheaper option available to you that you may want to consider?
-
GLWTS btw Parello (free bump).

Nissan 350Z 1/24 Scale model for giving away!

Welcome aboard Shaymo. -
That's not very useful then - you have to wash the car every time you park it and want to cover it? Yes otherwise when the car cover moves when the wind blows it will drag any grit/dirt etc on your car with it, thus scratching your paint. If you use a car cover properly it will protect your pride & joy, ...if you don't use it properly then it will ruin your pride & joy.

Could very well be 4.5" actually but it is hard to tell from a picture. This is a 4.5" on my old Impreza below. No help I know but I just thought it might upset Dan.
-
I'd say 4" straight cut rolled stainless steel tips. Definitely something like below in order to fill the larger exhaust cut outs in the rear diffuser.

Pity the weather wasn't better for you both but still some nice shots. -
Still searching. Question about red Zed...
GMballistic replied to Blue Straggler's topic in Introductions & Welcome Messages
No that's ok (real names Gareth btw ~ confusing I know but I got given a nick name ) That blue Zed looks soooo much better and with the LMGT4's that's a real bonus. Good luck with the purchase and get some pics up once you get it. -
You could always do that gumpy and then if you decide afterwards you don't really like them or fancy a change then have the alloys re-done in any colour you want at a wheel refurb specialist.

Great choice as the Azure blue is a lovely colour. -

Worth noting; In the advert it states "cruise control" ~ I can't see any cruise controls on the steering wheel so tbh I doubt it has cruise control (maybe just a mistake when they wrote the advert). In the advert it states "18" alloys" ~ another mistake when writing the advert I'd bet (probably a copy & paste job from another 350Z advert) as the alloys are the 17" base OEM JDM alloys. More info here on 350Z alloys: http://www.350z-tech.com/wiki/index.php?title=Wheel_Specifications Also in the advert it states "Computer (Driver Information System") ~ Most likely a Japanese Sat Nav so of absolutely no use to you whatsoever unless you speak Japanese & head over to Tokyo with the Zed one day. Should be in the centre cubby hole btw. It does have Brembo brakes, heated leather seats and the Bose system which are all bonuses as not all imports have those. Bear in mind though that the Bose system has a tape player (not a lot of use nowadays unless you happen to have some old Happy Hardcore on tape as I do ) and a lot of the Bose systems suffer a common problem were the CD's skip so that's a nuisance which is why most people replace them. Just fyi so that you know you may need/want to replace that in the future if you did buy that Zed. Also some other minor points are that it doesn't seem to have any car mats and the rear boot mat looks like a poor fitting aftermarket job. I'd also make sure you do as much investigative work as possible on the mileage as seems very low mileage ~ might have been on Kph for awhile before having the clock fixed to read miles or maybe just a genuine low mileage weekend car. Check the old MOT's as far back as you can & get a HPI check. -
Tyre sizes: 245/35 front & 275/35 rear as Jetpilot stated (same size I used to run with my 19's) or I believe you could also go with 255 front & 285 rear if you wanted an even wider tyre set up but I'm not 100% sure if you'd be able to stick with a 35 profile then or if you'd need to go down to a 30 profile which might be a bit of a harder ride. Colour wise I'm a little unsure if gold would look ok against the colour of your Zed but I think that's just down to personal taste. In saying that it would depend on the shade of gold as for example I don't think the below would work or look good... ...but then if it's a darker gold colour like the ones below then I definitely think it would look very cool. Your choice at the end of the day.

Both cars look great. Nice seeing the older Zed with its newer brother.
