  1. Nismo s tune cat back wanted. Can throw in my standard exhaust if someone is returning to standard. Thanks
  2. Quick delivery and good price. Will def use again. Cheers Ewen
  3. I had a 330d for a while. Good car. Strange you say "it's missing something in the low range". That's where they pull ok?

    Akrapovic evolution

    Nope, I am fitted with an organic exhaust (no silencers) To be fair, Akropovic are more associated with motorbikes. My bro has Akropovic systems on his CBR600 and Nuda900 Akrapovic originally only made bike exhausts. They make exhausts for high end cars now. Not sure I'd buy a Ferrari and change the exhaust though. That M3 sounds epic.

    I found this to make up for posting a BMW clip.

    Akrapovic evolution

    I'd love to have a listen but I'm in Manchester. I'm considering buying a e92 m3 in the autumn once the m4 has hit their value. If I do a akrapovic is going on straight away. I'm considering a new exhaust for my 350z. But the ones I like are expensive for a lower value car.

    They're great exhausts. I'm surprised they're not mentioned more on here. I'll probably get banned for posting a German car vid on here but just listen to it on a M3. Not keen on the sound of the 1M though.
  8. No. It was a bargain so I couldn't say no. Love it now though.

    Rays

    I agree. There are a few items in the classifieds that I'm interested in. But they are in far from new condition and the prices aren't that far off what they'd cost new. Having said that, I got some p/w tyres for a reasonable price.
  10. Has anyone got a Akrapovic evolution on their 370z? It's a amazing exhaust on a e92 v8 m3. Def my fav exhaust.
  11. It'll sound crap mate. Sell it to me and buy a Ark or a invidia. No one wants nismo anymore
  12. Seems like tidy 350z values are starting to firm up rather than continuing to fall. Anyone else think the same?
  13. I think he means the motorsport blue that you could only order on the st220.
  14. My car has the same badges. I was sure they were factory fit, but someone on here said all Z's left the factory with Nissan badges? I've fallen in love with my roadster over the last week. Best buy I've ever made.
  15. I've just replaced pads and discs all round as well as tyres. Not cheap. Bought 4 part worn potenzas from the classifieds on here to soften the blow.
  16. LPG in a 350z is wrong on every level IMO. I remember a similar thread on a m3 forum.
  17. You can get new ones on eBay for around £70. I personally prefer them to the nismo ones.
  18. Brushed alloy controls and gear stick surround, hazard warning light moved forward, sliding cubby replaces the ashtray and updated and illuminated door cards are the major differences. The facelift also included an illuminated ignition switch and steering wheel controls but it's impossible to say if these have been fitted. Although its not applicable to this Zed the SatNav was properly integrated into the console as well. Not too sure about the net in the passenger foot well, could be a roadster thing or part of the facelift? my older Zed coupe doesn't have one. Pete They don't seem like major differences? I was worrying about the interior a bit before I bought my car, but it's nowhere near as bad as I expected. The seats aren't bad and although there is a lot of plastic it's high quality compared to the hard brittle plastic you tend to find in new cars. The plastic in new mercs looks and feels much cheaper. It seems a bit silly not to have a glove box but other than that I've got no major gripes. It's not up to German standards overall but I was expecting much worse. Same with the Bose. Not great but I thought it'd be worse. Do the alloy controls fit the old interior?
  19. My car is virtually identical to that. The interior doesn't look majorly different than mine. What are the major differences? It makes me feel smug that I payed less than half that and mine has done only 38k miles
  20. The chances of finding a z4m coupe owner on a 350/370z forum are slim IMO.
  21. I beg to differ. The two cars are essentially the same. Having test driven both, the only glaring difference is the fixed roof and the marginal 0.2 increase. The straight 6 still delivers a top speed of 155, but with a 0.5 reduction in 0-60 time. The preference between the two extends only as far as which do you prefer - The added extras afforded by the M package, or not. Either way, both are in a different league to the 350z, and I feel no shame in saying I adored my 350z. A z4m is not a z4 with a "m package". It's a proper m car like a m5 or a m3. Not like a 330 with a m sport kit. The z4m is a much more raw and has the engine from the e46 m3. Comparing a z4 to a z4m is the same as comparing a 540i to a M5. No comparison at all. Different league.
  22. This is correct. The z4m coupe as a car is in a different league to a 350z and much rarer. Judging by the new m3/m4 real m cars will become even more sought after in the future. The 1M is a good example. IMO it ugly as hell and I don't like the screaming turbo engine compared to the n/a m cars, especially the v8 and v10. Yet they cost more now than they did when they were new. I think the 350z is great, but it's no M car. Not even close. Unless your comparing it to a chav'd 150k mile e46. This thread reminds me of what arsene Wenger said a few years ago, "everyone thinks they have the prettiest wife at home".
  23. Unless it's a gen 1 carrera I nearly bought one, but too many engine issues.
  24. The only autos I've liked have been dual clutch. PDK is my fav. Think I'll give the 370 auto a miss.
