  1. I thought I was the only one who preferred the DE bonnet
  2. Gary I can meet you at asda if your heading from mearns
  3. I work on Dumbarton road in partick so might see you around. I don't have a zed anymore so you probably won't see me lol Eurocentral on the M8 in Lanarkshire, Sunday morning http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/100594-scotland-meet/page__st__20
  4. Welcome along. Where you from? A few Weegies on here I'm in the southside. There's a meet at euro central on Sunday morning if you're free
  5. I had plastidip on the wheels on my shed. Wasn't a great finish they always looked dirty lol but it lasted fine until I had a tyre changed then it started peeling Not a bad idea for a polished lip etc through winter

    Ferrari F430

    Defo worth doing it at silverstone if it's not too far from you. Or even if it is- I travelled from glasgow My only advice would be get some track days under your belt before you book if you haven't done so already. Silverstone was my first track day experience. I was looking forward to driving a Ferrari and hadn't given the track any thought. When I went it was more about the track than the car and it was over before I knew it. Should've just hired a Ferrari for an hour to go posing on the street But when I drove the 430 I had done a few track days so I could really appreciate the capability of the car not just the looks ...if that makes sense lol

    Ferrari F430

    Did a similar experience at silverstone a few years back. It was the same as yours but an exige s and 360 challenge. The instructors do encourage you to push the car harder. A lot of members on here say most circuits are the opposite but they were great at silverstone The last lap as a passenger was awesome Had a go in a 430 at knockhill earlier this year for my birthday. Amazing machines! That noise.........
  8. About the same time I put this thread up http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/97247-new-project-returning-to-jap/
  9. Just to add to cold eps summary of the 33 model line up- gtst is a single turbo and gtr is a twin turbo In terms of costs- I bought mine over 3 years ago for around 3k. When it got written off I was paid out around 5.5k. Values have shot up recently. But I would still expect cash your way if trading in a zed
  10. Went for an r33 gtst after my zed. Great cars but generally require more maintenance than a zed and I got fed up with that interior driving it on a daily basis lol Different power delivery to the zed being a turbo. Felt really nimble for such a big car but couldn't match the zeds handling
  11. The mr2 is back on the road I might pop along to this Il need a head start when we leave tho
  12. I don't get the stigma with this. There's a market for it so why not tap into it? It doesn't have to be exciting to drive it's a people carrier It's been out a year but people are still crying about it
  13. I said that earlier in this thread. In less words and with less enthusiasm but yea it's an ugly car to start with nothing will make it look better
  14. They would both look better in a darker grey
  15. As far as the handles go- colour match them to your wheels
  16. http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/93502-my-akuma-skyline-with-a-the-heart-and-soul-of-a-zed/page__fromsearch__1 Agree with dan that gunmetal is incredibly boring. But iv always said that darker greys can look really good on the right car Dan won't agree but we will show him that he's not always right That g35 looks the part in a darker grey
  17. There was a member on here who had the same rear as yours and painted it the same as the m3 dtm. Can't find his other threads but here a pic I did find
  18. I wouldn't be put off by a custom paint job. As long as it looked good. The only thing that would cross my mind would be getting a good colour match on future repairs but thats not a huge issue Follow your heart not your head. Make the car yours
  19. San Marino blue. Electric blue in most lights but purple in others. One of the nicest colours iv seen Golf R. Similar but not as deep
  20. Not seen your zed in ages Alex. Still not getting in it with you at the wheel though Did I read on another thread that you've got a brz as well?
  21. That's the thing with orange. If you go for something unique it could look too similar to temper orange. And there's a member up here running a temper with charge speed rear bumper and side steps..... As mentioned before go for bmw sakhir orange. Looks red in some lights. Gorgeous colour. Google it for more pics
  22. That zed used to be black Where's the thread for the colour change? Must've missed it
