  1. ha cool! I loved this show, me and the missus watched one season back to back one weekend
  2. I tried LED's for the indicators and they blink mega fast. Apparently you can't replace the Zed's Resistors like you can with other cars. (usually around £10 each and you need two) After learning this I went with silver coated bulbs. The silver coated bulbs actually look better in the front light clusters IMO (after fitting both)
  3. I found this which is a pretty good thread discussing the 3 engines: http://my350z.com/forum/engine-and-drivetrain/410769-stock-de-vs-revup-vs-hr-vs-vhr-numbers.html
  4. so the only downside to ah HR is that is uses a lot of oil? My Type-R was like that and I was forever checking it. It made me paranoid!
  5. I imagine the roadster prices soar in the summer and plummet in winter.. alot more than the coupe. After all the Roadster really is a summer car. Tin top coupe? not so much..
  6. or simply look at the bonnet. HR - bonnet bulge.
  7. The 2 that I saw at a garage before buying mine were both over priced (2k more than I paid for mine) and have both sold. Garages seem to shift em very quickly even with high price tags.
  8. I work with a guy who bought an R8 for his wife. (He owns his own I.T company and has a lot of money) After 4 months she sold it. She was met with aggression where ever she went. No one ever let her out of a turning and she found it vandalized more than once - scratches, dents etc. She lost a lot of money on it apparently. Terrible... no wonder they call jealousy the green eyed monster.
  9. Your email literally just came through! thanks
  10. Ah so thats what the outer nuts do... OK, So I guess I need to loosent he outer nuts before adjusting the center one?
  11. I need to tighten mine as it has been off/on the car and was loosened when it was reinstalled. Can you tell me if this is correct please? > Tighten the center bolt 1.7 turns - tighten the bolt towards you/the front of the car. cheers
  12. Dont get the Halfords one.. I bough it for my Civic Type R before I bought the Zed. 2 miles down the road the the under the bumper straps came loose and the metal ends were swinging all over the shop scratching my bumper. I dont think I would risk any rack on the Zed and I am big into biking
  13. How much £ you got? http://www.ebay.co.u...=item43ca4a9aa0 http://www.ebay.co.u...=item4d1e1defd8 Expensive! You can have the Z from the 370Z if you want but not sure if its different. I saw these, the new one is crazy money! the second hand one will have no sticky... thanks for the links though. I might get a red one you know - as in just use the red Z what you think? http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/250578048716?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1497.l2649
  14. I noticed that the 'z' is snapped in half. Maybe a kid or car wash dunno.. but I need a new one (in original chrome). Anyone know where I can find an original one? It seems the main 'Z' badges are super easy to get but the 350 Z ones aren't. cheers
  15. totally... since I changed my silver touring wheels to gun metal Rays the wheels look alot smaller
  16. cheers! They do feel lighter than the standard wheels when you drive off from a standstill.
  17. Cheers guys. She is going in for a polish mop this weekend, I will take some half decent pics then. Filthy at the moment with shiny clean wheels... I almost went with Polished rims but they are such a pain to keep shiny.
  18. Heh no thanks to you! I am awaiting a few more bits, once fitted I will post my pics and thanks!
  19. Swapped out the side lights and wheels last night The refurb company did a good job on the wheels. I thought I would go for gun metal grey for an understated look. The LED indicators I ordered were the wrong ones bah.. Got the right ones on order now. Not looking forward to removing the liners again to fit em! Car was dirty when I took the pics last night
  20. This reminds me of a Zed clip I saw on YouTube the other night: Crazy Nissan 350z is Back !! Drift in Traffic !!:

  22. Make sure its in the hole as sometimes you can slide it down by the shield and you think its in the hole Story of my life
  23. I read somewhere that the gear lever is prone to rattle under acceleration but I can't remember hearing it prior to fitting a new knob. I've since fitted a cheap eBay jobby (the plain round alluminium ones) and love it. It's better but s till get a bit of rattle but can live with it. Did you try the tape around the collet ring? My old knob didnt rattle. The new one is an OEM one which I prefer so I need to make it quiet!
