  1. This is nice, what number is it mate? Get some spacers for the wheels
  2. Or send me the reg and I'll tell you all that info for free It really winds me up when people damage cars and drive off.
  3. Nice work! Shame he didn't finish it off, horrendous car.
  4. Has anyone been on one in the UK? I'm thinking of buying one as a gift basically. Is it worth it? It does look quite amazing. Opinions please, and no I'm not scared of heights that much
  5. This thread has got funnier than the top gear episodes. Says a lot haha.
  6. Cheers mate, now just to get wheels with the correct offset so I don't have to use spacers Shame they're £3k!
  7. I had a set of spacers left over from my 350Z and I managed to get another set off Chris yesterday (cheers mate). So I put them on today. Not sure if there are any pictures of them on the 370 Black Edition on here yet. Before I started I took a few pics to make a comparison. Here's a before pic of each side: You get the idea Even though the car doesn't have a great deal of miles on it I thought good habits from the start might be something I want to keep up so while each wheel came off I gave them a nice clean, not a spot of dirt on them, before and afters: So I took some pictures as the spacers went on: And finished: A final picture of the car mine spends most of the time in the garage with: I'm happy with the overall look of the car now, the rears are 25mm spacers and the front are 20mm spacers. Just needs a little lowering now I notice there is no need for any arch work on the rear of these 370Zs, they're already rolled!
  8. I can combine multiple mods into one post, just keeping them seperate until they fill up. Go faster stripes and Carbon will be making an appearance at some point, both exterior and engine bay Go faster stripes?! Please tell me you're joking
  9. oh no it's rusted already!!!
  10. A mate had one in at work (car dealer) and he took me out in it. I was looking for a new car at the time and the Zed happened to be that car I'd not considered.
  11. lol, you joke but on another forum of a well known jap car this actually happened, someone disappeared for ages and re-appeared as well, a woman, they didn't join the burlesque dance troop though as far as I know.
  12. No Stew I didn't bother trying them on the 370. Maybe I should have. I've told myself they suit the 350's shape better than the 370
  13. Sounsd good to me mate, I'll chuck you a text later on to arrange times. I reckon other people would be up for a drive. There are plenty of Zeds about in South Wales. Pop up a quick thread on the meets section? Shame my brother won't have his R32 going or he'd have been well up for a drive with us.
  14. Beat me to it! They look much better on your car than my garage floor lol.
  15. Here's another pic of the wheels on the car Looking forward to a nice drive on Saturday mate, might have to stop for a few quick pictures as it's really nice up Brecon as you know and the weather's meant to be good!
  16. These look great on the car. Sad to see them go but they look so good on the car, the pictures don't do them justice! Have you cleaned those stinking brake calipers Chris?
  17. Hi swanny, odd they can't get you a test drive. Do none of the dealers have one in stock? Seems most do around here...

    Wow!

    If they're things that you can keep the parts and replace with the OEM if you sell in the future, shouldn't be much issue should there? No you're right, and of course my intention would be to revert it back to OEM easily if need be, but still. I must resist, now lets see how long that lasts
  19. phew, I can sleep easy now It's a great engine

    Wow!

    Dear lord, some fine touches on these 370s! I love the lip and skirts on the red one on the trailer. I'm trying so hard not to mess with my 40th Anniversary! I understand a lot of people's comments on here regarding touches they didn't like on the 370, I didn't really like it too much when I first saw it but damn it grew on me and I loved my 350!
  21. I will accept sensible offers, send me a message, I can only say no, or yes
  22. They did not come with a carbon option, i believe there was a fake wood effect, but its rare, price wise you will pay anything from 8K upward depending on age and spec,10K should get you a pretty good one, but the 6 speed manuals with brembos are pretty rare, with the price of fresh imports soring i can see the prices rising. If you want more info pop over here http://www.skylineowners.com/forum/foru ... .php?f=220 we are a pretty friendly bunch 6 speed manuals with Brembos are not rare. Surely nearly all UK cars had Brembos?
  23. Did you see what they'd offer you on your 350 as a part-ex? You will enjoy the 370 mate.
  24. Where is that from? Never heard of them making a twin turbo version.
