  1. Working or a patient? If the latter, then good luck and i really hope she's ok. We've had some very sad times in there this year.
  2. Here you go mate... http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=53&t=21147&hilit=paddle+shift&start=0 I've made quite a bit of progress since these pics, i've totally redesigned the mechanism but have just not yet finished the look - so am not posting any more progress till i get round to finishing them.
  3. Fantastic. I loved these on GT4ZEDs car too. Defo get some spacers on there, and get some tyre shine!!
  4. Lucky fella! What a cool day out! Has it turned your head or are you sticking with datsun?
  5. This was most definitely a more pro event that what i've been to... i go to the 'introduction to drifting' on an easy course... Check out this thread for everyone's car suggestions... looking back now, i wish i'd bought an e30 bmw. Definitely try and get into it though mate - its awesome!
  6. Good good! In addition, i've taken my zed on a couple of drift days and have no problems with the autobox. The manual mode on it is excellent, and i've modded mine to use paddle shifts rather than pushing the gear stick up and down. ...but try to drive both if you can before making decisions.... im sure all the manual drivers on here will tell you im wrong and that you need a manual in a proper sports car... but the zeds not a propper sports car, so you'll be alright
  7. Yes mate, its true... viewtopic.php?f=35&t=9903&hilit=+boot+lid+weight
  8. Just found some more pics of the day... look at the damage! Soooo glad i didnt take the zed on there!
  9. beautiful is my fave track of the moment - what's the rest of the album like? ....... possibly not Markies cup of tea !?!
  10. Economy is very slightly worse but not much... maybe 1mpg? Performance wise... i've never driven a manual, but i've driven with them and have no problems keeping up at all...!
  11. beautiful is my fave track of the moment - what's the rest of the album like? Track 13 is the best... 'im dre from, back in the day from, NWA from, the black and the gray son.'
  12. +1... i've watched all of this series on the iPlayer so i can skip through them... some of the features just go on forever
  13. Yeh its definitely a civic, but arent they Z3M coupe rear lights... like you say stew?
  14. Fantastic... i want one! Will you be using it for work, or is it just for posing? See i have no need for a pickup, but i'd still have one. I nearly got an 06 mustang instead of the zed, but was put off by the lhd side of things... that, and the fact that another guy in my town bought one around the same time
  15. Good man If you leave the zed, you have to get something mental to live up to the thrill. I've always liked these since i first went to the states, and then again because of Fast & Furious 1, where Paul Walker has a red one like yours! I used to pass a yellow one with black stripes in a garage daily, and i wanted it so bad! If you dont mind me asking, how much was it roughly? And how are you finding riving a left hooker?
  16. In my changer... only things i have actual CD's of... I never use it though - only when on a very long trip. Listen to MP3 cd's... So on the changer is: Obie Trice - cheers Lock Stock & 2 smoking barrels OST 2 Fast 2 Furious OST Radio 1 Live Lounge d1 Radio 1 Live Lounge d2 Now 37!
  17. It was the most depressing 4 minutes of my life... where were the explosions?? It was a very odd ending to the series though dont you think? Had me a little worried when it went of... like its not gonna come back
  18. If you're parting it out, i'll take the vinyl off you. Seriously man, dont do it. The zeds not that dear to run - just stop modding it and dont drive with a lead foot! If you weigh it all up, the only differences might be 50quid a month in petrol and possibly the same again on insurance? Now how many months would it take to balance out the difference in costs there? Also didnt louis have one of these for a few months?? Get yourself a little run about like a focus... dont ditch the zed!

    what is it?

    Its a useless bit of metal needlessly weighing the car down. Remove it immediately and send it to me
  20. Hey all, As some of you know, my mates and i have recently taken up drifting . We bought an RX7 and took it to Oulton Park last weekend and had some fun! (actually, i'll post the vid of it i made again here, as not many people were looking at the Oulton Park thread...!) Anyway, we went up to Buxton Raceway for a DWYB day today... although we didnt take the rex - and boy am i glad!! There's no chance it would have been able to do it!! I spoke to one of the guys running it (i dont know his name, but he was one of the instructors at Oulton last week) and he said you'd need to be pushing 300bhp to enjoy it properly. He tried to talk me into taking the zed on track - yeh right!! So i was there for about 45mins, and during that time i saw a nice S13 go into the wall and wreck the front wing/light/bonnet/bumper... and an e36 lose its front bumper (vid 2 below!). Not a cheap sport i dont think! However, the power being put down by the 200sx's is immense! They looked and sounded so rapid... i want one My drifting at Oulton Park, again.
  21. Put the mid section in through a door so it goes under the strut brace. Then try to squeeze the passenger seat up against it to stop it moving.
  22. Took me till the 4th post to realise you weren't talking about your car
