  1. What's also quite staggering to me is the close proximity to peoples homes & other businesses that all these dangerous materials were being kept. Literally a disaster waiting to happen.
  2. I had SuperPro poly bushes on the front of my Zed fitted by Horsham Developments. Personally I'd highly recommend them. Link: http://www.h-dev.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=25451 For me I found it improved the cars handling and as far as I was concerned it didn't feel particularly harder than OEM over bumps.
  3. Just found this picture similar to Stevo's. ^^ These were all new cars waiting to be exported before the fire/explosion. Source: https://news.vice.com/article/in-photos-the-aftermath-of-the-massive-explosion-in-the-chinese-city-of-tianjin
  4. That first picture Stevo is good as it really puts in to perspective the size of the area affected. Shocking.
  5. Just been reading about this and some of the footage/pictures from the disaster is insane. Sad to think how many will have been injured or worse killed. RIP. Crazy to think what hazardous materials must have caused this and what the repercussions are going to be afterwards for the people living nearby.

  6. Always fun changing an exhaust, ....should sound much better than OEM whatever the new brand is.
  7. Most commonly called the "W brace" and it's a fairly expensive piece to buy new especially from Nissan. You could maybe find a fair condition used one from zmanalex on here but the option I usually recommend to people is the Ultra Racing aftermarket version as it's a lot cheaper than an OEM W brace and also looks better.

  8. Words can't really express how I feel about spoilt little rich sh*ts like that.
  9. Well done Chris, ...five minutes of fame mate. Zed sounds great.
  10. Welcome aboard Mat. Really the only way you're going to be certain what power the cars putting out is by getting it on a rolling road. First things first though imo ~ check the service schedule here: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/31110-service-schedule-for-a-350z/ ) ..to ascertain whether everything's been kept up to date on the servicing side of things. It could be that your Zeds in need of some new fluids, spark plugs etc. All of which may help improve the car if only slightly making it run better.
  11. Great news Andy. I'm sure he's going to enjoy it.
  12. Imo the "Ring" test is a load of BS anyway. Far too many variables (weather, tyres used, driver etc etc) to be any type of fair comparison between vehicles.
  13. Looks pretty good anyway Marc. Welcome aboard.
  14. I'm just waiting for zmanalex to post in this thread: "good condition used V20's in stock & ready for next day delivery".
  15. Fair and interesting review Mikey. Thanks for sharing your experience.
  16. Sorry can't tell you that. Fair enough, I'll just order another 500ml ... worth going up to the iridium sparks over the platinum? If it's a DE engine (2002-2006) in your Zed then I'd just stick with the Platinum plugs as that's what Nissan recommend.
  17. Sorry can't tell you that.
  18. Did the RE050a even exist when the 350z was designed? First 350's were rolling on Bridgestone RE040's from what I've read.
  19. Some prices for you here Eddy regarding parts for a P3+ service from Horsham Developments. This is just the prices for the parts using the drop down boxes to give you an idea. Link: http://www.h-dev.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=25744
