  1. who needs the ebay codey thing...you have me and coldel on the case 24/7 you will put us out of being bored at work...well at least me anyway
  2. Bit closer in chessington i always take mine to Simpsons,Have known ray down there for years always does a good job knows his stuff and is honest with you from the start...good prices too!!
  3. had the m.o.t done in november and no signs of any wear so all good my other mate has a garage so when ever i think theres something wrong it goes up on the ramp but no what you mean about not having full access ive been looking at alternatives to four ramps lol hopefully i will construct something in the new year so i can get the whole zed up in the air without too much fuss
  4. looks a better attempt than my first go, nice one!! I put up a guide and still got in trouble with it Im hoping attempt 2 will go better
  5. I think part of the reason i can get away with owning a zed is Alex and my personal mechanic who charges me £15-20 an hour labour if that...usually its a minimum of £80 labour at most independants and they will strecth the job out down here...if i didnt know better i would have spent well over grands on the zed instead of hundreds
  6. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Noble-M12-GT0 ... 3a6cf4d137 Actually cheaper than i bloody thought!!!!!
  7. i dont mind them but they are every where, in fact i see much more boxters on the road than zeds which is a big no no for me......but to me i hate paying extra for having a fancy badge on it (including the parts) so unless i was minted i would not get one and if i was id buy a Noble
  8. If i hadnt of spent so much on the zed and servicing this month i would have this snapped up quick http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NISSAN-350Z-2 ... 3cbdfebee7
  9. cool looks good to me ian was it all ok when on skyline?,what pressures do i need?? mine on car is 0.9 bar i think not sure what putting a different pressure will do?? Whats the nismo one like alex in good condition??

    Radiator cap

    as above please any lying around or traders got any ??
  11. yeah that undertray was doing my head in when you think right thats it...oh another bolt I can see why people dont do their own cos it does get messy and painful and is cold and if not great with engines is very confusing but for anyone with basic knowledge (which most have on here) its at least a £100 saving i reckon. Do it in the summer though I always did my own servicing on old cars but didnt take the chance first time round with the zed as didnt know it to well but after this forum and lots of reading Nissan can bog off with there P3
  12. Just spent since 7.30 this morning doing my own winter check and servicing the car..new oil,filter,coolant,air filter..the belts (AC and other one)....discovered why my heating isnt working...dodgy rad cap...a must check for those that are experiencing heating problems!! Any one have any rad cap reccomedations?? Oil was awful and black everything else looked in good nick my mate helped me and was shocked what a good example of an import it was (except the scratched bonnet and dented door ) It wasnt as hard as i imagined i printed all the guides off here and could say only hard bit was finding all the bolts i put down from the undertray At least im not lining Nissans or random garages pockets with my hard earned cash anymore
  13. thas some serious bulging and its the same colour as mine how much it set you back?? Sticker looks like it came from max power mag on the front lol but each to their own
  14. im really confused with the dates although i appreciate after a certain year a car must have cats...my 1997 civic coupe had cats and one failed...therefore failing m.o.t this was in 2003 i swapped whole system and decatted it also, passed every year till 2007/8 were i only failed because they changed emission output and failed on that...not because i didnt have a cat! Threw my cat away couldnt find another so i bought a zed instead...but i wonder if you passed the emisions test and had no cat would you still fail??its unlikely now you would pass test but if you did?
  15. they look What did you use to do them??did you take tyres off? ive got mine here ready to go on but i dont want the same colour as before
  16. il find some pics for you not sure who made them but its got a number on the inside of it NISM something i bought whole kit off forum member here so not sure where it has come from originally its unfitted and unpainted so new basically..il get some pics
  17. ive got passenger side its got cup holder built in it though the one on my car doesnt??and its got different material design so not sure what one you have
  18. ive got replica side skirts and front bumper sold the spats
  19. i want a clay model of the zed in my living room...everythings a secret there though i live not far from there, used to love my friday drives past there always some rapid monster firing out of the entrance out for a road test got a pic of the mclaren slr before it was launched just appeared out in front of me
  20. well i thought it means i get some extr petrol in there somewhere so thats why im happy..i think payroll do sort it but HR deal with me as thats were i had to submit the form to. Well i think im hppy now anyway
  21. dont listen to them looks fine bit of burberry vinyl roofing and your sorted Can i have your black lights please
  22. relax guys its 45 a mile and i work based from home so no deductions for me has worked out ok i think
  23. As part of my job ive been doing a lot of travelling about lately...company says ok we will pay for your petrol with work related matters...great...(little did they know what car i drove) anyway sent in form thinking they will tell me to do one.....they signed it!! got a phone call today ...why did you rent a car to go to birmingham?? i explained it was mine and its clearly written on form and its been signed and approved..they were shocked i owned the car and a bit miffed why it cost £110 to go birmingham and back Looks like someone needs to read the forms first before filing Anyways too late now been approved so im set for a bit of petrol expenses for a year now
  24. alex has some i was going to get them from him last month but didnt in the end
  25. exactly i get a lot of people saying how nice my car is and try and prevent them from walking to the pssenger side but at the end of the day theres nothing wrong with the 3.5 v6 under the bonnet and thats all im interested in and matters really, this stuff happens i was so angry when i did mine but a year on im not too fussed it will get done and il be happier the day its all perfect again..drive on and just tell people you binned it in an underground drifting championships
