    Lumpy

    just goes to show what a wonderfull site this is !!! Happy Days
  2. I'd have it but I got a Roadster. Could get the missus to hold it above her head when Im hitting 130 for that extra downforce !!! :teeth: Nice tho. Itll sell easy.
  3. when I was looking a few months ago, having had a GTO 3000tt (similar in performance to the supra) I tried the supra, porsche boxter 3.2 and the Z4 and the 350Z. Guess which one was the better car for the bucks??? Supras are old hat now and starting to look their age. Boxters... far too many on the road. Z4...ladies Car.
  4. Anyone know if they do similar front wings for the 350... Sick car by the way. Awesome.
  5. Guys there's loads of nice scenic runs in Wales. Example...start from Pembroke dock and drive the coast rd all the way up to Aberystwyth sea front through cardigan , abereinon etc. google map it. It's stunning. Just my 2ps worth. Used to ride it on bikes. Be easy for the Irish guys too as you've got roslair to Fishguard crossing.
  6. Thanks guys for confirming that. Thought so.
  7. Hope someone can help. Every now and again when I go and start the car, there is a slight rattle coming from the engine bay more near to the back just under the dash area outside n unreneath. As soon as I press the clutch in and go in 1st or reverse the noise goes. So what I do is just dab the clutch halfway or to the point where the rattle goes just to see if its clutch releated. Can this be a thrust bearing on the clutch??? if so how much of a job is it to change if I was to do it myself and approx cost of the bearing??? any other ideas of what it could be most welcome. thanks Zeb
  8. Guys why not take it a step further.........Look at your self driving by a large reflective shop window whilst dabbing the throttle for that deep roar. lol I know I do. me sado !!!!!!!
  9. Can any one advise as to how to remove the door vent thats on the door card. Does the door card have to come off. The thingy that bridges all the flaps together has popped off and needs to be put back on but can only be done from behind. I dont want to force the vent housing away from the card just in case I make matters worse. cheers Zeb
  10. How many of you still look back at ya car after youve locked it and walked away lol. My ownership is two months now and still cant help myself. I absolutly love her. I bet some of you guys that have owned ya Zed for years still do it. :p
  11. Once signed up be great to arrange a group Dip (steady on misus) Absolute dogs finish on em. fair play.
  12. Not sure if its been covered before..so mods feel free to delete. What has your car history been like. Have you alwaysed been into your cars or are you having a mid life crisis and gone out and bought a needless toy. mine is as follows from the age of 18. beetle baja bug escort mk 3 ghia MG Metro Turbo a 406 Astra SRi Audi 80 hatchback version Ford Escort Cabriolet MK3 Ford Cosworth Three door with the whale tail in white Dihatsu Forktrack Vauxhaull Frontera Ranault Meganne people carrier thing BMW 318is coupe Mitsubishi GTO Volvo C70 Cabriolet MGZS 180. Rav 4 Mini Cooper MGZS180 350z Roadster so...as you can see quite eclectic albeit a few fast cars in there from my past. Favourite car to date,....the zed which gives me the biggest grin factor. 1st car ever driven...a Morris Marina van bought for 10 quid at the age of 14 and driven on the coal tips. oh the days. lol whats yours????
  13. Wow. Nice achievement. Well...I've learnt one thing. I had no idea it housed a Subaru type boxer lump. Very nice and very tuneable too i would imagine.
  14. It was only by chance as I was trying to hook up my new iPod nano 7th edition to my new hu and could not get em both synced. Read the book and said only use upto 5th edition. Looked for most of the day in the house for my old classic as it was shuvved to one side somewhere. Lol
  15. If anybody's using an iPod classic hitched up to your main head unit.....this is a nice little mod done on the central tunnel plastics to keep the iPod at bay...... Remove the ashtray.....just pop it out.... Then cut a slot to allow the lead through as so..... The iPod classic is bang on the same size and depth of the ashtray insert. As you can see it fits like a glove and flush to the central plastics. Happy days. Zebb.
  16. Im paying £210 fully comp for my roadster from Basildon Insurance. Been with them from day dot. Remember my first modded car, a Vauxhall Astra SRi and was paying £1500 third party f and f. That was 27 years ago. lol 45 now...eeekk!
  17. Hi and Welcome - Read read and do more reading. lol it will save you a huge ball ache if you make the wrong choice. Theres a wealth of free recourses in here for you. Join the club
  18. Nice White '07 350 coupe two days ago in Llanelli. We clocked each other and acknowledged. Are you on this site??
  19. you could easily take the bumper off and fibre glass the crack from behind. Then when set, buy some Upol Fantasy. Its the best and smoothest filler Ive ever used. Easy sandable with minimum of effort. Can be used as a stopper too. I think any guy with a bit of DIY in em could do this. Couple of days on it with fine grit and be like new. Take it to a paint shop to get blown over, would cost about £ 100 to 150 cash. Filler is about 20 bucks for a big 5ltr tin. Have a go...what the worst thing that could happen???
  20. is the silver rear spoiler available if Steve dont want the hatch lid??
  21. Cracking pics. Love em. Can anyone tell me is the matte grey one's been wrapped?? Also just wondering of so, how much would it cost approx??
  22. Just has some bits n bobs done on mine. He took the paint code KYO from the engine bay. And although my grey has a slight tinge of green in it depending on the light, the paint was bang on match. My painter said there are 9 colours in this code green being one. He uses Glasrout or Dupon paint. You could ask any paintshop to mix you some up in a jam jar but make sure you ask them to add a thickner so that it can be applied with a small brush, otherwise its too thin (to suit gun application)
  23. My wife and daughter sent theirs 4 weeks ago and had it back last Friday. But these were re-newals. We were told that the back log only affects New Applications ???
