  1. I got a quote from a few local garages and then went to National tyres who matched it with their price promise. Got them for £450 all in.
  2. Check out my tyre review. http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic ... 9&start=45 I had the exact same problem when i got my Falkens a few week back. For the first few days they were like they were coated in oil and i had loads of oversteer but having bed them in abit now there sooo much better. Top tyre, just give it a week or so and you'll see they'll improve alot.

  5. I think your talking about Sinbads pal. Only managed to speak to him briefly but he seemed a top bloke, mentioned that he was a biker Yeah on more than one occasion!!! Top guy though.
  6. Look at Sinbad taking part in the annual Bala robotic dancing world championships! has he got his dancing shoes on Don't start you two!! haha
  7. Thats not real? it cant be? If it is, thats class. I wouldn't drive it but i think it looks ace.
  8. What an idiot. Look at the width of that road and height of the curbs. He shouldn't have been speeding in the first place! He must have been going pretty fast to rip it in two. stupid boy....

    More 380RS

    Don't know if its a repost but heres alittle bit more info on the 380rs. includes a vid in their too. http://www.nihoncar.com/en/review-464-N ... +HDTV.html
  10. I know ive noticed its starting to catch on!! I never got the chance to get tim back at the meet but maybe i could sort something out for sunday Louis! saying as you were one of the main culprits. lol
  11. Its gotta be a litchfields type 25 then. 40K, one of the fastest a to b cars, 4 doors, reliable and you can throw whatever luggage you have in it. 415bhp @ 6,500rpm (400bhp from 5,800rpm − 7,000rpm) 570Nm / 420lbft @ 3,800rpm (300lbft from 3,000rpm) 8,000rpm Redline 304bhp/ton 0−60mph in 3.7sec 0−100mph in 8.7sec 157mph limited top speed (175mph gearing, taller gearing also under review) http://www.type-25.com/index.asp#1 Vid: If you look about you maybe able to pick up a used example thats taken the intial new car depreciation. Obviously a modded 350z would be a smart choice.
  12. I've not had any time off, but i managed to give mine the meguirs treatment last nite. with all the wax i applied on saturday it came up sparkling in no time!
  13. Think thats the first ferrari ive seen in white. Looks Very nice, just get rid of the stripes. Must go like the clappers!!
  14. Looks nice mate, You don't hang about. Cleaned her already since sunday.
  15. H A P P Y B I R T H D A Y.... Happy birthday too ya!
  16. So with abit of fiddling would this fit pretty easily? Ive got a luggage net at the moment, will i still be able to use this? Sorry for the 101 questions.
  17. Lotus Exige S or Litchfield type 25?
  18. These are my thoughts... I think the 350z DOES cut it with most of the other cars especially the Supra, S3, RX7, S2000 and to a certain extent R34 and Cayman S. I'm sure Liam will tell you that after following the 500bhp Skyline through bala. The selection above are tottally different cars (hatch, coupe, 4 door saloon etc..) and it would be really up to him to test drive them and see which is best suited to him. I don't think its all about speed which is the impression i get from the above, i'd want something that excites you everytime you get in which i don't think you'll get from a S3 maybe if it was modded alittle. Anyway,,, Cayman S - Quality car, will hold value very well, a few modded ones about that are as fast as a 911 turbo. Slightly expensive if your modding? R34 - Big bills if anything goes wrong but fast standard, and can be made to go like S**t off a shovel. S2000 - Need a turbo or Supercharger to get any real power gains, in similar boat to 350z really. Will hold value quite well, and voted the best used car 2 years in a row. M12 Noble - I'd only get this if i was throwing money away. Great car but huge bills from what i've read. Not something i'd like to drive in daily, but super quick. RS4 - awesome car, will do everything you need of it and won't break being German. Residuals very good. Do you need much faster? Great a-b car. Naturally aspirated so will need turbo/supercharger if you want more power. Single figure mpg when pushing. S3 - Would be a sleeper similar to the Saab. Very easy to mod. Just check out http://www.amdtechnik.com/ I'm sure they'll have some good stuff for it soon. Expensive to buy though compared to others on this list. Will hold value quite well. Boreing to drive? RX7 - Still looks good today as it did on its debut. Running costs will be high. Can be tuned to over 600bhp though. Abit old me thinks. Supra - Again Looks great, especially some modded ones. Big power again. Showing signs of age? 350z - Can be had for 15k now, bang a turbo on all for less money than the S3 and your flying. Looks stunning standard, and looks even better modded. Running Costs will be reasonable compared to some others on the list too. My top three in no particular order would be: 350z Cayman S RS4 Anyway, modding will very rarely gain you money and quite often lose you money. So whichever car he mods, i doubt he will get it back on the resale.
  19. Hi Jobo, I'm completely baffled as i've never actually looked at one of these up close or how it fits. Do you have any pics you can show me?

  22. How long are you planning on driving for? Do you know the route or if we would be stopping?
  23. Ok i could be up for this, will confirm closer to the date.
  24. Who was the other person who nearly got taken out by an old Subaru legacy? It was at the roundabout near the services right at the end of the day. THAT guy (subaru) was an idiot!!!!! doing aroun 80mph round a roundabout.
