  1. Couldn't remember, but the plugs for the first two engines are the same I think. My car is MY07 - the 313ps version.
  2. +1 It's just the disguise, I highly doubt it'll look like that at launch. Probably hiding a new spoiler of something.
  3. I've still got my old one, did under 10K before i replaced it. Pick up from west cumbria though!
  4. Well then! I could have saved myself a few quid and a lot of messing about had I checked a few things and the 350z-tech website! I bought a set of Iridium sparkies of Nurrish a few weeks ago, thinking to swap mine for them. But after a lot of messing about wondering why the new plugs were a different size to ones that were in, I finally got to the bottom of the whole thing. 1) Nurrish has the VQ35DE (I think.) I have the VQ35HR. 2) A couple of changes were made between the two engines, not least of which were: So not only did they apparently fit Iridiums as standard; (code FYE22HR11 on mine) but they made them smaller too! So really I needn't have bothered in the first place! Lesson learned, check the specs next time! Anyone need 6 Iridium plugs? Only been turned over a couple of times in a supercharged Zed...
  5. Scumbags indeed, feeling your pain mate.
  6. Glad I missed it now, sounds a right snooze-fest Something needs to be done though, it continues to disappear up it's own ass every year, while the WRC and BTCC get backwater coverage on terrestrial telly.
  7. Hang on, I'll just get my crystal ball from the other room.... Probably quite good if you don't mod it, see market prices of previous unmolested examples of R33/R34s etc.
  8. Not much difference in it really, especially once you see the cost of modding it!
  9. Looks great but surely that pipe's a bit long?
  10. Thinking of putting a few squid on the F1 on sunday, not sure whether to put it on someone to win, or maybe fastest lap etc. Anyone else betting? What are you going on?
  11. I guess FC are just the bunch of cowboys they look. Beavis got much better from Autocar as I recall.
  12. R8 is substantially cheaper, even the V10 version.
  13. I stand corrected! they have been past my house! Zeds in the garage though, looks like it was done last summer-ish
  14. Fear enough you are entitled to your opinion but could you expand a bit on what you mean by the typical people that drive one? the general image that the 80's yuppy era attached to the Porsche, that its almost a badge of having success in life. This is Porsche's biggest problem. They still can't shake this stereotype of stock brokers with big quiffs driving 911's, even 25 years on. For some reason people stick all their negative opinions of Porsche solely on the Boxster, which is weird in my opinon as the boxster is surely a sign that Porsche are trying NOT to be elitist and opening up their brand to more and more of us, and not just the w_nkers in braces from the big smoke. +1 And Porsche are continuing to further increase their presence at the bottom end of the sports car market with their "new 356" roadster - a platform share with Audis' upcoming R4. Although the other reason is to allow them to increase the base prices of the Boxster and 911.
  15. yeah, i've just recently coughed up my 405 sheets!
  16. This will just make the rest of my engine bay look even worse! I'm in.
  17. This was announced in the 2008 Budget. Still sucks though.
  18. Don't worry, we know when we're beat! They say the only people who badmouth the boxster are those who've never driven one. I woud probably have a Cayman or a 911 if i could afford it.
  19. Google wouldn't bother driving round here, arse end of nowhere!
  20. My my, someone has been busy in the pre-season! Can't wait to actually see it (or any 370 for that matter!).
  21. I got mine through paints4u, as far as i know Nissan still haven't done a rosso red touch up!

    Lol, I don't think Horatio would thank you for that!
