That should be true, however some manufacturers went off piste and starting putting either colour in their mixture regardless of whether it was IAT or OAT, which was spectacularly unhelpful! Best thing really is to always flush fully unless you know exactly what's in there, as you say Glen.

I'm guessing for a better selection of tyres to pick from.

Risk with re-oiling (if indeed they are an oiled filter, don’t do that with a dry one!) is that you can accidentally over-oil and then wreck your MAF/s, which then gets significantly more expensive. A filter is a consumable after all, that’s why I treat them as such.

If you want to know whether a car will rise or fall in value, just wait until after I’ve bought one. That’s when values seem to drop, every single time The 350 was a return to form after the slightly damp squib of the 300, and was rightly heralded and loved by everyone when it came out. It was cool, honest, brash and cheap enough to be desirable. The 370 came out and was the wrong car at the wrong time, and whilst it has many good things about it I suspect that rose tinted spectacles won’t be half as kind to it in the minds of most outside of this forum.

I’d replace annually personally, just like I would with any OEM filter. If they’re dirty they’re dirty, so bin them and get a fresh set in. Bearing in mind what they do, one that isn’t functioning is either robbing you of power or letting crap into your engine, neither of which is really wanted

Drain, flush, refill. If you flush properly you’ll get everything out anyway.

So there’s people who have just learnt to drive who weren’t born when the 350 came out??!! Wow. I feel old now.

That sounds dreadful. The odd burble or pop is lovely, but that sounds as fake and nonsensical as the map Jag put on the F-Types. Sorry man, not a fan of the noise there at all. Love the gfx on the side though, they're absolutely perfect to liven the exterior of the car up, seriously

I quite like the stripe...

If they have a film on, then 99% sure yes. The vast majority of manufacturers supply their cars with the maximum tint on these days already, so anything over that is going to be illegal.

Well silly question then: Is there a film on them? If they’re OEM tinted then I’d strongly suspect they’re legal, if there’s any kind of of film on there then 99% they’d be illegal.

If you only have one intake, then it will fit. For clarity, you do, so it will

Totally get what you mean about being considerate of someone else's car, but as long as you give it time to warm up (and the flat sixes do take a while to get oil temp up in fairness) then it comes down to the fact it's your money you're spending, so by all means test the product properly. You can always get the other person to drive the car first, so they they only hand it over when they're happy it's all warm and ready to go

Having driven the 2.7 without the IMS issue (one of the few modern Porsche engines I don’t actually know the code number for off hand ), albeit in a Boxster rather than Cayman, I tend to agree with you. I preferred the older engine, it seemed a bit more lively, but then the new 2.7 was the only 9x7.2 lump NOT to get direct injection, which I’m guessing is what makes for a radically different feel. Is it slow? No. It is a very different engine to the V6 in the Zed though, and yes you absolutely do have to rev it to make the most of it. The beauty of the Cayman is the chassis though, and how deft the car can feel under you. The 2.7 just needs a different driving style, but after having driven an mx5 for the last couple of months with much less power, I can promise you that the 2.7 is far more capable of overtaking Work the engine and gearbox a bit more, don’t be afraid to use all the revs all the time. Shifting down to where the revs are at 4000rpm is a pleasure, not a chore As an aside, in terms of running costs my 997.2 was cheaper to run than my Zed was, and likewise the 987.2 Cayman R my brother has after his Zed was the same.

I’d take it with an ocean full of salt

Try asking Nissan themselves, but I very much doubt you’ll either get an answer from them nor anyone else here if I’m honest. I’d have a guess at the answer being ‘lots’.

Is that 25 of either towel or umbrella, or does it need to be 25 towels or 25 umbrellas?

I had a totally at fault accident declared when I was driving someone else's car, and it didn't affect my insurance one bit. Then I had another non-fault claim a couple of years later, no change either.

Needs spacers

Aero and a stonking lap in the right conditions with a driver that knows the car exceptionally well. It's less than 4 secs under 7mins, so not exactly well under but I see your point.

With fluids.

That'll be a dry weight, you can easy add in another 150kg for a wet weight. Also, I got the cost of a current R35 wrong apparently, so we can all stop arguing over that now I genuinely thought it was around that, with the Nismo being £150K.

Might be me with two accounts But dude, awesome name!

Nothing wrong with being correct.

Exactly my point, it’s not a 370Z Nice pic though, regardless. Just needs to be in the Other Cars section really
