You don't get the best reception from the silver ones. Most of us go for the Honda Stubby aerial. Their is a guy on ebay who does them for a fiver plus p&p. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/HONDA-S2000-CAR-A ... dZViewItem

I was taking the mickey out of myself

could always try halfords. Sure they might have a few bolt on bits

I think Val was being sarcastic and trying to put Chris off.

Parked up outside Nickys Sandwiches (awful ) this lunchtime. Private plate begining with M7 and a nismo spoiler and rays.

azure is awful.

fella Just don't let the misses take the car to the supermarket. You now how they park in any old spot.

it's gotta be done. First purchase every time

new sponge

If they are 225/45 R18 Z. You've done ok.

nice one.

Not a fan of any of the rears. The Greddy looks the best. The Nismo and Kaminari look to much like takky bolt ons.

JDM Specs Base---17" wheels, ABS,Brake assist,TCS,limited slip diff,xenon headlights Version T---- leather seats, seven speaker bose Version S-- 18" rims Brembo's and VDc(instead of TCS ? )but no leather Version ST--leather +Version S spec rear spoilers/sat nav and side airbags ordered as extras on all specs + loads of other Extras not seen on UK cars like auto fold mirrors ,different steering wheels, footwell illumination etc etc... They are all built in the same factory - some of the main differences are UK models have/is: = larger fuel tank = different ECU (10 BHp less allegedly ) = rear spoiler = xenon headlights = headlamp washers = bigger radiator = uprated interior = uprated suspension (same from Nov 2004 onwards I believe) = different exhaust = phone integration = speed limit of 155mph and not 112mph = manual (6 speed gearbox) = Thatcham cat 1 alarm = different horn = 18" wheels = (generally) cheaper insurance but shop around = more expensive (for same mileage and age) = enhanced cooling for LSD = GT pack option (leather seats, heated seats, cruise control, BOSE) = Brembos as standard = different (larger) air intake = oil cooler JDM car has: = tiptronic gearbox = max speeds 112mph (HKS speed defender needed) about £120 = auto roll-up window = rear wiper which you can move easily to clean = 17" wheels = ridiculously bright high-beam light in car; £10 to fix = no fog light (will be fixed as part of SVA) = Sat Nav which doesn't work and no cheap fix = radio needing a frequency shifter - cheap to fix = option of white paint = square number plate = wing mirrors fold-in when locking car = wing mirrors dip down when selecting reverse = optional xenons (but no headlamp washer) = optional brembos = Key Fob unlocks the boot = Different Badge on the boot.

Yes the suspension is different. It was altered for UK roads. Don't buy a JDM purley for the SAT NAV. It is useless in this country and your looking at spending 1k to get it sorted. It's cheaper to buy a aftermarket product like Tom Tom. Also need to consider speed limiter. Some more answers will be here http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewforum.php?f=37

Beautiful. Prefer it the Ferrari TBO. Just hope the recent thing with TVR doesn't affect your ownership.

thought the key button would lock it. So would say battery is ok. Is it the fact that they key won't turn the lock is the issue I think.

Out of interest did you try the passenger lock. It will prove if the lock has been changed on the steering column or wether the lock in the drivers door is bust.

an even cheaper one http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/L-K-NISSAN-350-Z- ... dZViewItem

Performance boost of up to 16 per cent BP Ultimate has launched what it calls a revolutionary high-octane fuel. Launching at selected sites in the south east, BP Ultimate 102 Unleaded is described as "the most advanced, high-performance petrol sold on any forecourt in the UK". Offering performance improvements of up to 16 per cent in BP's tests, it's also the most expensive at an eye-watering £2.42 per litre – see below for sites where you can get it – although it's said to be better for the environment. What's so special? Designed specifically for motor sport enthusiasts, BP Ultimate 102 Unleaded meets the same high specifications of fuels used in Formula One racing and the World Rally Championships. It has an octane number of 102 and has, said BP's spiel, been formulated to allow highly tuned engines to perform at their best. BP said that, in its tests, where the ignition was remapped, Ultimate 102 gave typical power benefits of between 4.0 and 7.5 per cent above normal Ultimate Unleaded 97. On a very high performance, turbo-charged vehicle, with boost pressure increased, the power benefits seen included an increase in maximum power of 37bhp (8.6 per cent), and as much as 60bhp (16 per cent) at some points in the engine speed range. It also complies with BS:EN228 -- the UK specification for unleaded petrol -- so it can be legally used on the road. BP Ultimate 102 Unleaded is ‘hand made’ in small batches at BP’s Speciality Fuels Technology Centre in the UK, using the same expertise employed for Formula 1 fuels manufacturing. Product manager Paul Beckwith said: "BP is widely acknowledged for its fuels technology expertise across a range of transport fuels and has an excellent reputation in Formula 1 circles, having been involved in the development, manufacture and supply of fuels to the F1 community over the last twenty years. Fuels of this type have not been readily available to the public previously, but now we have introduced BP Ultimate 102 unleaded specifically for private motorsport enthusiasts based on our product technology in this field. "This fuel has a range of features to allow increased performance from the most highly tuned engines, alongside all of the benefits that drivers expect from BP Ultimate fuels. We are delighted to make this remarkable fuel easily accessible from our forecourts." What's in it? Ultimate 102 is a precise recipe using a completely different manufacturing process compared to conventional refining, said BP. This processing results in a fuel with exceptional quality without the main impurities found in ordinary fuel. This is demonstrated by the crystal clear appearance, compared to the yellowish colour of typical petrol – the only forecourt fuel in the UK to boast this characteristic. It's also said to be less harmful to the environment than ordinary fuels: Its unique purity and superior evaporation properties improve the combustion process in the engine, which means that less of the fuel is emitted as partially burnt pollutants, such as carbon monoxide and unburnt hydrocarbons. Its sulphur free formula will improve the operation of the catalytic converter, reducing exhaust emissions. With less than 0.1% benzene, BP Ultimate 102 unleaded is safer to handle and less harmful to the environment and is the only automotive petrol not classed as carcinogenic. The fuel contains a high performance oxygen containing bio-component, which means that overall greenhouse gas emissions – associated with global warming – are reduced, helping to protect the environment.
