  1. That's pretty appalling! Id be fuming! Why was it left to get so far! Don't wash off the blue paint, make sure you leave the car where it is and then when they have their car you can demonstrate where their door comes to! get them to open their door and line it up... I'm sure they will have to admit, if they don't seems like you got an idiot of a neighbour and time to take more drastic measures such as getting police/insurance involved... how annoying to have a neighbour like this!
  2. I always thought the 07 had more hp and torque than the 06, but the 02-05 had more torque?
  3. what does th gt pack include , leather interior ,rays alloys, sat nav ,bose sound system what else ? coz this 350z seems to have all that all that but dosent have th rays Heated seats, steering wheel controls for radio etc, cruise control and probs some other stuff ive forgot, it looks like a pretty mint z though, but to be honest if i were you id go for a gt pack one, you may regret it later on.
  4. Or just get remote start, leave your car to warm up and then when you drive the car you reduce the wear and tear on the engine dramatically. First 90% of wear on the engine is when its cold. Accelerating briskly with a cold engine can cause the engine's head gaskets to fail. Engine wear occurs most swiftly not during high-speed driving but in the first moments after a car has been started, when the cylinders are starved for oil. So in other words let it warm up before even moving off if you really love your car xD
  5. And there is no way to take it off without damage... so in other words your bollocked?
  6. So can you actually legally take a clamp off your car?
  7. Saw you this morning around 7.50am Mint Z.
  8. Yeah that is in a state, but saying that some people on here haven't cleaned their cars for months? Maybe hes saving to fix it up etc? I think im giving the benefit of the doubt here lol.
  9. Another reason i like the Z, its alot more exclusive than say.. an audi tt.
  10. Yeah id agree, pretty much spot on. This might interest you: http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/ ... &logcode=p
  11. Rarely see any Z's and im in london where you see alot of different cars, so the Z really is somthing special, gets me thinking how many were actually sold?
  12. come off and take an A road or something im sure there is almost always an alternate route.
  13. tbh hang back or take an alternate route, if you really love your Z you wouldnt fly past, not only does it increase the speed at which the stones hit your car its dangerous... why not just hang back? Or better yet come off and take a diff route... maybe a detour so you can enjoy the Z more by driving it longer! Just my opinion!
  14. I have a car i need to get fixed up MOT'd and taxed. Now of-course i cant drive the car without insurance so that's fine, i will use temp insurance. Now if i have booked up an MOT test and diagnostic on the car does this mean I can legally drive it without tax to the garage designated for repairs etc. (because its insured and booked for MOT?)
  15. For a straight head unit swap, yeah it looks like you're good to go Thanks dude, what about my sub and amp? Are there some issues with removing that Bose amp?
  16. If you're fitting an alpine head unit, don't you need the alpine remote cable for the steering wheel control unit? http://www.sextonsdirect.co.uk/fitting_ ... ml?cat=659 Changed my mind mate, i decided to go for the pioneer as it has reversing camera, much needed for the 350z IMHO! So apart from that, am i set to go?
  17. Thanks for all the help everybody, I have had a read through the FAQ's and from what i can gather i will need the following items: ICT 50-306 - Nissan 350Z 06 Onwards - Single DIN & Pocket OR Double DIN http://www.sextonsdirect.co.uk/facia_pa ... 0-306.html ICT 29-674 - Nissan 350z Bose USC Loom http://www.sextonsdirect.co.uk/facia_pa ... html?cat=0 ICT 29-007 (Pioneer head-unit lead) http://www.sextonsdirect.co.uk/steering ... html?cat=0 What my intentions are to take out the Bose head unit, replace with the alpine W505R. I assume i have all the wiring i need for that above. I would also eventually like to take out the Bose amp and power the speakers with my own amp and then i will have another amp for my sub-woofer, would that be ok or do i need more looms etc? Im not actually going to be doing the install but i want to have all the parts etc for when i do get this all done. Cheers guys. You been alot of help.
  18. I thought st was 6.5 secs to 60? isnt the zed faster than that?
  19. Very good condition! Nice Zed! Congrats!
  20. Car weight = 1670kg 0-60 276 bhp = 5.9 sec, manual ... 6.1 sec, auto 297 bhp = 5.8 sec, manual ... 6.0 sec, auto 309 bhp = 5.6 sec, manual ... 5.9 sec, auto Auto's are a guestimation usually about 0.2 behind the manual 0-100 = somewhere under 10 seconds 0-150 = somewhere over 1 minute 0- warp factor 9 = 300 years back to the future speed = 88 mph hope that helps put extra in so you can work out power to weight etc Your a star mate! Spot On! HALLELUJAH
  21. Oh the pain! Oh well at-least you saved her! it could have been worse! Lucky it wasn't across more than one panel!
  22. Lol i cant help but laugh at this thread now.... i mean all i asked was for some simple info, some don't even answer my question and just went in to a rant, some say search on this forum ( have done and a lot of people say diff times ) and now people say we don't care about the 0-60 times.... For something so simple its making a lot of us act silly... And thank you to some of the people that actually tried to answer my question, which still remains partially answered. And yes guys i did google,wiki,yahoo,msn,jeeves im not a complete idiot. Why do you think i posted here on a 350Z dedicated forum, and guess what it seems that NOBODY so far can FULLY answer the question i have posted! I still love the Z i just don't get why its a crime for me to know every single bit of info about it, thats what you do as a proud owner right? Guys stop biting each others heads off?!
  23. I did actually use the search button and i got so many different answers, alot of people with modded cars etc get different times, i just wanted to know out of curiosity what you can get out of the Z stock, and ofcourse you all care about the 0-60 times because if the 350z did it in 20 secs im sure that would make a big difference, im not saying i want a Z because of the 0-60 i just was curious at official times! And so far nobody has come back with anything really! I love the Z and that's that, i realise and understand where you are all coming from! But thats not what i wanted to know the times for. Cant i know them just for pure purposes of actually knowing a thing or 2 about a car im going to own?
  24. Guys, ive been kinda finding this hard to find, what are the specs on performance for a 350z 06 rev up. Both coup and roadster. I would like stuff such as 0-60, 0-100, 100-150? Both manual and auto? I hear so many different things from so many different people its hard to know what the actual quote is from nissan, and then what the car actually does!
