  1. I sold my 350Z for a Clio 182 Trophy due to impending house purchase. Best handlng car I have ever owned and I love it! Costs are low compared to many options.
  2. Just taken a deposit for my 350. I feel really emotional. Will quite miss the car, been an awesome year and so glad to have had the pleasure of having it. Maybe in years to come I will come back with a 370 or so! On-wards into home ownsership I suppose! *hugs* To the Members!
  3. Ok so I went and got this sorted at Nissan. Turns out the cooler was leaking so had a replacement fitted and had the fluids topped up. Now I get a strange juddering through the steering at certain points when cornering. Although it is getting harder and harder to reproduce! My question is does fresh fluid need to bed in a bit or do I have air in the pipes? It is slightly concerning me obviously so any advice is also appreciated!
  4. On having a look this morning I have found that the fluid levels are way below the Cold Minimum! So it could be the root of my problem. Better get on the blower to Nissan.
  5. Thanks chaps I will have a look tomorrow and check the levels!
  6. .... from the front passenger side wheel area. Everything was fine on Wednesday after work. Car was left standing today and I have just driven her to the gym and back and whenever I turn the steering wheel right towards full lock I get a strange whining sound accompanied by some shuddering from the front left hand side. Can feel it all the way through the steering wheel. I am hoping its something silly like the brakes sticking but am very worried about bearings etc. Has anyone experienced this issue or can advise me on a good course of action? I have not been able to have a good look as it is dark now lol. Regards Dave
  7. I am in almost the exact same position as the OP. But my GM has roughly 19k on the clock. I am really struggling to find a general price to put the car up at! The market at the moment is so hard to judge the best price. Good luck with your sale when it comes!
  8. Nissan 350Z Focus RS Mk1 Fiesta Zetec S Ka
  9. I have had a year of TG sub and then a year of EVO sub. I rate EVO as the better magazine for car reviews and just general awesomeness! Asked for an EVO sub again for Christmas
  10. This looks great. It is the closest custom exhaust to get near a standard look in my opinion. I do love the look of the standard. I told myself she would stay standard.........gah! Temptation!
  11. Glad you got this all sorted! Also I have been looking for a well recommended bodyshop to sort some paint issues on the zed in this area! So will give them a look.
  12. Chris I live in Basingstoke and would be interested. The sliding mat does my nugget in!
  13. I got 2.2 at the end of August on 3. Have had zero problems with it!
  14. That's when the bombs were tiddlers! But awesome all the same!
  15. Since upgrading to Android 2.2 on my Desire I have noticed improvements in the battery life. I have about 40% battery left at the moment and it was last on charge Monday morning. Not been using it that heavily until tonight. I am posting this from it!
  16. There is absolutely nothing wrong with using explosives. I always play Hardcore HQ with friends or solo. Nothing more satisfying with a bit of Danger Close to nade the hell out of the HQ. People always complain so it actually makes me enjoy it more. RPG's are the best.
  17. The dream would be TVR Sagaris..... but I need to move out first!
  18. I bought mine for a few reasons: 1. Do it while I am young and before I have to move out. 2. I pretty much bought the Zed on the exhaust note. 3. I got fed up of picking up all my mates and decided to go to 2 seats 4. Because I could
  19. Take a look at Mk5 Fiesta Zetec S. I had one for 2 years and are well within your budget and was a cracking little car!
  20. So far the 350Z is cheaper to run than my old Focus RS If you can afford to buy the Zed I am sure you can afford to run one, as with any decent performance orientated car never skimp on the essentials tires/servicing etc and the car will love you in return. If you cannot afford to run one then.....sell it after a month or two
  21. I would add, as regards to filters. Make sure you take out the cap on the filter, or restricting the airflow is exactly what you will do. As you won't get any in at all But I have to wear these masks regularily and out of choice I would not train with one on. Having lenses inside them is bad enough when doing tricky jobs let alone doing a gym sesh! As has been said, it makes my workouts seem tame. I am going to have to raise my game!
  22. Good to know man Sorry to hijack the thread!
  23. So just for basic servicing etc, SJB are ok? It might sound nieve but I have never used another garage except a main dealer on any of my cars
  24. Looks good chap On a side note its nice to know of a recommended place around Basingstoke should i need one. Only used the main Nissan dealer!
