  1. You have to ask for it mate. As above ~ when you reach 350 of course.
  2. Welcome aboard Angus. Definitely would love to see some pictures of your old motors. I used to work for a classic car restorers so do like the old school motors. You could also post them in the "Memory lane" car thread: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/23174-memory-lane-post-up-your-old-car-pics-here/page__st__360

    Rubbish isn't it. This isn't just a one off either. I believe there are a fair few cars that have a similar issue like the Renault Megane for example. Heck the 350Z is a bumper off job to change a light bulb for the majority of unsuspecting people, ...it's just that we on here know about the trick of going through the wheel arch.
  4. Another Youtuber here. However I do google search for videos on specific cars sometimes but again 9 out of 10 times it comes up with Youtube anyway.
  5. If Brad can't help you Jimmy then it's probably worth a PM to zmanalex to see if he can help you out. Good luck.
  6. Welcome aboard Jack. You can buy "350Z" forum stickers here (one free when you reach 350 posts fyi): http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/11639-www350z-ukcom-car-stickers/ Not sure were you get the ones with your username added though sorry. If not on here then eBay maybe.
  7. Tbh I wouldn't spend too much on an induction kit for the noise. You're better off spending the money on the exhaust system imo to unleash the V6 noise. I bought a Stillen induction kit (£250 odd) for my 350 when I had it and the noise increase was barely noticeable as it was mostly encased to avoid heat soak. Take a look here for some of the options available to the 350 owners: http://www.tarmacsportz.co.uk/products.aspx?CategoryId=dd876c45-6d4a-41df-bc25-7c19903fe703 Most popular option, in part for the sound but probably because of the cost too is the "pop charger" induction kit.

  8. Looks like a nice clean Zed you have there with Brembo's too so that's a bonus (JDM standard non-Brembo brakes are supposed to be terrible).
  9. Ha ha. Cheers Chris. Ahh well not a lot of difference between an induction kit and a supercharger kit really, ...only like a few grand in it. My initial premise though still stands ~ I can't see why an induction supercharger kit designed for the 350Z (with the same engine) wouldn't work. That is providing nothing is in the way on the Murano or drastically different.
  10. So does it have the VQ35DE V6 engine then? Any pictures? 350Z VQ35DE engine supercharger kit: http://www.tarmacsportz.co.uk/GB/350z_Vortech_Supercharger_Tuner_Kits/350Z-03-06-VORTECH.aspx I can't say for certain but if it is the above engine then I can't see why a supercharger kit designed for the 350Z (with the same engine) wouldn't work. That is providing nothing is in the way on your Murano or drastically different. Maybe worth chatting with some of the tuners/garages on here like Horsham Developments or Abbey Motorsport. Both in this section here: http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/93-professional-traders/
  11. Best wishes for your Birthday Chris but my deepest condolences for the passing of your father. Terrible news.

    No problem and good luck Colin.
  14. Hey bud. I've done it. Bought mine in Ireland. It's re registered in uk now. Pm if you need some help. Had to do learn for myself but I would have loved some info from someone that did before me. He's actually bought his car now and brought it back to the UK already. Thread is here; http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/104029-r33-gtr-vspec-pictures-in-op/ Might still like your input though.

    Hope that's the correct model.

    Hi Colin, no experience of this model myself but had a little google search anyway for you. Any of this lot below any help? Bulb change from the VXR forum: http://www.vxronline.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?121479-How-To-Replace-Halogen-bulbs-via-dropping-the-bumper Looks for the most part though that it's just another one of those PITA car designs were practicality has been forgotten during the concept stage or the designers have purposefully done it in order to get more people to take their cars to the dealers for even the minor things.
  17. Love the MR2's engine bay. Looks great. Have a look at my old build thread here for some Zed inspiration if you like your engine mods: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/91628-gmballistics-zed-supercharged-2003-gun-metal-gt-coupe-vids-added/ Plenty of other great Zeds on here for inspirational ideas.
  18. Yeah that does look good Linus and I've had lots of Codemasters games in the past. I actually had "Dirt 2" and "Dirt 3" on the PS3 so will definitely be waiting for the new Dirt game for my PS4. Hopefully my brother will enjoy WRC5 anyway, ...guess if he doesn't he can always trade it in when Dirt comes out.
  19. I've been part of the beta for this for a good few months and yes, it is brilliant. Best rally game by far. Codies have gone away from the usual arcade approach and made a very pure rally sim. I pretty much play it every day. What's it called please? My brothers getting "WRC 5" on the PS4 for Christmas but don't think that's made by Codemasters.
  20. Great news for your mate Nic. Hope all goes smoothly and keep the pics coming.
  21. After all that & it was just a spark plug. Great news that you got it sorted.
