  1. Nice work, that stuff really works wonders on an exhaust
  2. Agreed Colin, and its one of the reasons Tarmac is not selling them anymore - he doesnt want other customers to be disappointed with the quality and the level of customer service.
  3. I borrowed steves washer, lance ans snow foam and found that although it was alot of fun it didnt really do that much, the car was still covered in light dirt. May have been becuaseit did it wrong or that the foam wasnt thick enough but based on my first attempt i wasnt sold
  4. Lol, thought for a minute shes a bit flat chested for a model then it zoomed in......oh Reminded me of that scene in the movie the crying game, i wasnt expecting that either.
  5. And what tit would that be ehh colin Yes if you could please lock it, that would be great Yup lexx... keeping the zed now... I test drove cayman s and m3 and didnt feel that they were 10k better than the zed. So going to keep it for a year or so and then think about 911s HOPEFULLY glad you hanged your mind, good choice love the look of those wheels and will be awesome when lowered
  6. Np andy, and yeah your car does sound awesome with those hfcs. Kept trying not to listen in wales to remind me of what i coldnt have lol.
  7. Haha caught red handed. Note to self never commit to anything if adrian has his video camera handy
  8. Not related to the roadster, we inspected ebizeds car and mine from below and there was no difference except for extra struts which were well away from the exhaust. Given my experience and if i had to buy another exhaust i would definitely not pick the stillen. On the plus side i love the noise but.... Down sides: Absolutely awful workmanship. The garage had to file down loads of the welds to get all the bolts to fit flush. The inside of the exhaust was marked and scratched. It sits too low and nearly touches the cross member causing vibrations. Its a well known issue thats common in the usa. The garage really had to work hard to give enough clearance. Its only 4 months old, regularly cleaned and the welds on the back box are already starting to rust When compared to the stillens bought by chris-i and ebized its clear the exhausts are no longer made by the same team / process. Most probably sub contracted out. In addition stillen were very unhelpful when these issues were raised. Thye stated it was the garage who fitted it improperly....sigh. Biggest problem though is fitting the berks. I love the sound of the berks hfcs and wanted them on the 370. 2 sets of hfcs (berks and stillen) and 3 garages later, (2 of which are specialst fitters with knowledge of zeds) and it was a no go. They stated the angle of the stillen was out and that it was totally incompatible with the hfcs, its not even close. I was gutted. Still its on the car now and sounds and looks great, but i wouldnt buy one again. Wish i had kept to my first instinct and got the invidia gemini. Still tempted to shift over and add some berks lol.
  9. nice one, she keeps on going strong as ever
  10. if i recall there are 2 different versions of the sat nav system in the 370z. The later connect premium system allows input via post code and lots of other snazzy features. I believe the older system on the 09 cars may not
  11. Have to say im rather impressed with the winner, looks like they have got it perfect and this is the entry level spec....
  12. Thought this would be of interest, some nice motors being assessed in the video. http://wot.motortrend.com/watch-the-201 ... 51681.html
  13. Looks very odd without those fangs
  14. Are they still looking for us after that midlands run?
  15. Nice one - all after being ill during the exams too. Congratulations
  16. a) It was done in the states perhaps you would prefer pure science research ceased, taking away the modern world at a stroke? United States are in a much worse state than us last time I checked. I don't think science research should stop, not for curing diseases and the like. But novelties such as how many frames a second can we shoot in isn't what we need to be doing right now. How is this going to benefit anyone? Don't get me wrong, its very impressive work, that impressive that I watched the whole 11 minutes of it. But it seems to be money could be used better else where just for the time being. Thats fascinating work - very impressive. Regarding whether or not money should go into such projects. In recent history there has always been a strong correlation between a country coming out of recession and investment in science. The result of a lot of research goes forward to provide new optimisation for industry, ways to save, highlights new products with which you can gain a competitive advantage and drive an economy out of its troubles. Cutting investment in science is a very short term view and would have a huge detrimental impact on the long term health of the economy. Unfortunately that is exactly what the govt is currently doing and we are now one of the worst countries in europe in terms of how much is invested. Its not good
  17. Welcome, thats a nice shiny zed
  18. Given your cars track record it should fly through with no issues
  19. I have to say my friends absolutely loved this film. I on the other hand thought it was terrible. I wasnt expecting a deep and meaningful script or a plot but common this was just a short pointless film where it felt like all the actors had cameo walk on roles. Someone walked onto the screen, rehashed an old line from the 80's that was totally irrelevant to the moment, got out their gun and started shooting. There was no point. Now i love arnie and stallone films, my collection is full of movies like predator, commando, rambo etc. I love them but this film i thought was rather sad....... The one exception to this was the norris story about the cobra - that was totally awesome. Will
  20. oh boy thats terrible
  21. Dont worry it took me quite a while to get used to the clutch on the 370 as i found it one of the biggest differences to the 350. You only need to touch the clutch to be able to change gear.
  22. nice pics, looks like a fun day
  23. It was the mazda but next time you head out to burn some rubber on track with the zed let me know
