  1. A lot of thought, effort, & time put into your car, a true car enthusiast... Perfect zed mate!
  2. Yeah I bought a skanky ST 300bhp import with a £1,500 titanium exhaust!!
  3. Welcome mate ! I used to drive a Chimaera 4.0 a few year ago, never seen such a babe magnet in all my life. They were all over me, or should I say the car!
  4. That video was awesome Breaking 8 minutes at the ring is unbelievable!!
  5. Sorry to hear about the job losses But if the brand TVR re emerges & is the better for it, in terms of quality & reliability than at least thats one good thing. They were not progressing at all over the last decade, lets hope things may now change.
  6. Anyone know whats happening with the Kinetix high flow cats group buy?? If its not happening with Miami GT maybe we should just do it ourselves from Kinetix? Anyone.....
  7. Sorry chaps have been very busy at work & just bought a flat so no time for forum But managed to sort out problem following afternoon at work. It was indeed a blown fuse. This however means that anyone buying a second hand Z should be wary as by simply pulling out a fuse you can stop the odometer! (though you do also lose your speedo & indicators, but a crook could easily have a switch connected to the fuse to turn on power when you need to indicate). Food for thought... I'm just happy it wasn't anything major. PS thanks chaps for all advice & help
  8. Battery wasnt flat, started up straight away. Should I still disconnect battery?
  9. Got back from a 3 week holiday around India, lovely time, especially Goa! Got in the car today & I have no power to all to all indicators & speedo in dash not working & odometer. Also digital speedo is not increasing in speed either!!! & no beeping sound when you leave lights on after ignition of. Everyhting else seems to be fine including headlights. I havent checked the fuses yet as it is dark, but the speedo cant be disconnected from a fuse. ps mine is an import & has been fine for the last 6 months since purchase, could this have something to do with the conversion from km to mph i.e some wire has come lose?? Please any suggestions
  10. Just to let you know what a sad addict I am: I'm on holiday in Delhi India on a right slow PC checking out what Iv missed over the past week.!! Im going to Goa next week, lets hope they have a PC there! ps lets hope the Mrs doesnt wake up cos she'l definetley kick my sad ass!!
  11. My JDM spare key cost over 300 quid all in from Nissan Crawley Down. ps see my topic in JDM section
  12. Try ebay, lots of Japanese, Hong Kong, Chinese companies that have European & Asian market versions of everything. I have recently bought JDM rear view cameras & almost bought JDM dvd player from them. Until now all have arrived within 2 weeks & I have paid no duty on anything!! ps try emailing those photos to them I'm sure they will be able to help
  13. I'm off on holiday today for about 20 dyas, back on 11th Oct. So dont buy cats without me, plz!!! Wait for me
  14. Its a base model that has been done up. Its probably a T version or something not a ST (equivilant UK GT) because the seats have been re-trimmed in leather which implies they were originally cloth; no bose sounds; no heated seats switches in centre section. The steering wheel controls are not there but that doesnt really tell you much as Japanese market had this as an option, so there are all combinations of certain buttons on the steering wheel. Its overpriced for a 2003 non ST model IMO. Goodluck.
  15. Lowlife, cheapskate, jealous, scum That doesnt even come close to describing people who do that. Even though your well pi**ed off try to stay calm & be thankful it wasnt worse. Only the other day over on the other side there was member whos car was keyed outside a block of flats on four panels!
  16. "Dont Fink its just been LASHED together" :teeth: Classis advert, I love it, but sadly not the car!
  17. Yeah I subscribe. It is a back issue that somebody has ordered & you got in post by accident. Back issues are usually reject stock or slightly odd looking as I have ordered back issues which usually arrive in this condition.
  18. Well I meant this owners club, but for the life of me dont know what each is actually called, in fact they both sound & spell almost the same!!
  19. Northwick Prk Hosp roundabout Harrow, Middx today at 4:30pm in a UK 05 yellow Nismo. Never seen a yellow one in the metal before & have to say it looked.........................bloody amazinn!! The guy had obviously polished it as long as Emperor Ming & it was gleamin!! I even complimnted him on how good it looked as he pulled up in the next lane & told him to join the owners club. He said he hasnt had time yet, but will, though which one he'l find on the net is another matter Unfortunately I was in my old mans old Merc but had to tell him anyway that my Sunset Z was having a day off at home!
  20. Agree, I would save £10k or more definitely Ok maybe power not the right term, instead more acomplished sports car, especailly handling & speed through corners.
  21. 2 months ago Evo mag did a head to head & overall the Audi was a more technologicaly advanced & well put together, better quality car especially the new fancy gearbox. But the Z came on top as the Audi lacked feel & soul & was ultimately a boring, lifeless though hugely efficent car.
