They mean the width of the tyre can slightly vary. I wouldn't buy a 19" tyre for a rim thats 18"

Car steaming up and having to run de-mist all the time.
AMT replied to WhackyWill's topic in 350Z General
Ah well, I dunno then lol I remember when thinking about buying them all I saw were Nissans steamed up all the time, my friends was very bad (albeit a Nissan note)...was wondering if the Z would be the same but its been ok. Try the fan thing I said though. -
Probably I agree!.. Climate, cruise, heated leather, Bose(..well..),6CD, muscly looks,309bhp.... and all for 15K. Merc SL350...same pace, same stuff, STARTS at £70K ... you can keep your badge, the quality of the plastic doesn't bother me that much lol Aww.. what a thread! I'm proud of it lol Obviously I'm not dissing...infact thats a horrible word a teenager would use..erm.. insulting (there ya go) all drivers as not all are the same, just a large percentage of said tail gators ive noticed have been Audis. I do like A5s though... but you need to buy big wheels and the sporty bumpers or else there quite boring...and expensive lol. Random car rant there...oh and PS... I'm not a Ned...Chav for you down southers, but I'm only 26(for another month anyway )...so I still like to put the 'hammer down' as it were from time to time

What's the longest you've gone without driving your 350z...?
AMT replied to wizard's topic in 350Z General
48hrs.... when I've been out drinking on a good weekend Otherwise it gets used every damn day...and all the better for it! -
Which new models are uglier than their predecessors?

Keep your fan on very slightly and on the windows, fresh air (not re-circulate) and it'll be fine. Only use the air con if its needed to quick clear otherwise, have it off. Although I've never had an issue with it off is this an older car thing??...Or maybe just the colder weather. -
Front looks not bad, rears ...not so good and those side gills streak things....nah.. lol Mean lookin' mutha though!

I'm still getting used to the way hot hatchback drivers look at you...kinda 'thats nice but I hate you..' lol But back to the subject, theres no need to chase cars! I think I've done it a couple of times, seen a lambo, I'll keep up a bit (but at a nice distance) to see the car, you don't often see that kinda stuff so I wanted a look, then just back to normal, why you would sit right up someones anus with your LED running lights I don't know, especially if you can't get past cos' theres a huge line of traffic infront of me! Pointless....lol I don't suddenly think..."jesus! Four rings! I better move....eh no"

:lol:... I agree with the 1 Series comment.... the first one was horrid the facelifted one is also horrid with added "I've had something shoved up my a*rse" look... MR2! The 'ferrari' like little thing much better than the convertible piece of nonsence that replaced it. 370Z is nice, just whats the deal with things getting shorter? I like the long bonnet look, sportscars shouldn't be 'stubby'...I'll end up buying one after the 350 mind you... As much as I hate them anyway but the new SLK, what is with those front lights Merc are using now?? And the rear looks like a Honda, all big red light casing and all... -
to decide a takeover from BMW and Mercedes.... For the record I like Audi's and I know the Z attracts attention...sometimes wanted, sometimes not. What I have noticed is the unwanted ones all seem to be these days in Audi's! In the last few days I had a new shape TT sitting on my backside and today an A3 (you know black, those quite nice Audi blade alloys, but its only a 1.6 or something lol etc...) decided when I passed it to jump into the fast lane and chase me and sit right on my tail until he had to get off at his junction Did I bite...no lol Anyone else have this sort of attention? It comes in two categories I'm now learning as a reasonably new owner....admiration when your parked, petrol stations etc, when your driving... you are a target that 'lesser' cars MUST pass! lol

Hilarious! poor Squirrel being hunted by a leopard
AMT replied to WINKJ's topic in Off Topic Discussion
Brilliant! I actually took a quick vid off the iplayer with ma phone of this to show a friend lol -
Aw I feel so lucky this year! Short of the Highlands and I mean way up north our area (as were a very high point) gets it worse than ANYWHERE...and yet this year, one or two days of lying snow and the rains cleared it all away today (and doesn't look like its gonna be back this year)... This has been the best winter yet lol. Perfect... when you've just bought a RWD in October
-
Aw don't spray! My friend did that with his Hyundai Coupe (mind that beast?... ) headlights and they were terrible! Wasn't able to reflect off all the shiny bits in the lamp casing so therefore gave a crap light, I imagine the rears of a car will just be the same. Best bet buy a set of already professionally darkened ones. http://www.tunersdepot.com/Images/Sonar-LED-Tail-Lights-Black-03-05-Nissan-350Z-33-103-YD_ALT_N350Z02_LED_BK_m.jpg http://www.tunersdepot.com/Images/KS-LED-Tail-Lights-Black-03-05-Nissan-350Z-42-103-KS_N303TLEDJM_m.jpg

The main point is... have you seen a 350Z bumper... its almost one piece look , just a round backside, imagine bumping into stuff....it'll be fecked If you are unsure stick your head out the door for a second lol Otherwise yeah... reversing sensor things.

...Nothing but pure quality comes from this poster! At some point in the future perhaps - instead of Z Fanatic - I can have 'Mr. Controversial'

313 in Twilight Grey... I hear there quite nice those...
-
Hmm, wonder what this is, might be still there as the engine is on and i just switch it off and then you hear it. Would it keep going if the engine was off or would it come to a complete stop. (as I said it seems to fade away). God almighty don't be the flywheel.... Does that mean a new clutch on the horizon? (clutch seems fine btw lol). I'll just need to see how it goes. As I said its not always there. Thanks for the help guys! (and any further info!)
-
Erm, haven't tried that, its when I come to a dead sudden stop, like driving head first into the parking space and stopping, engine off and you can just hear this noise like somethings swinging lol Next time I hear it I'll dip in the clutch but surely not the flywheel if the engines just been switched off? Doesn't seem to be causing an issue...(touch wood) yet.. lol
-
As wierd as it sounds, when I stop the Zed some times, possible if its a quick stop, theres a noise like a hinge or something swinging (actually sounds like a stereotypical someone humping in a noisey bed ) for a minute then it dies away. Exhaust part or something? Nothing seems to be hanging down.. Any ideas? lol
-
I kinda like it because its not filled up with all the usual fussy BMW lines and Mercedes in your face CHROME! They could add little bits here and there but nothing too much...maybe lower the price a bit too... Sounds good too.
