  1. Do it right, stay Jap
  2. Don't worry Ekona, you can use TIDAL for all those needs. What a joke that's going to be, ripping off Spotify's UI, good ploy by Jay-z et al.
  3. Spotify + Sonos is the way forward! £10/month for all your non-Taylor Swift musical needs
  4. If you're going to buy a Mini 0801/0803/0805/0806 get it from JooVuu. UK based and warranty https://www.joovuu.com/gb/51-all-action-car-cameras I had to send 2 back as they were buggered but I got replacements within days, not weeks if they were going back to China like most other sellers.
  5. Graduate? I took 6 lessons going from never sat on a motorcycle to passing DAS and then buying a 803cc Ducati Monster 796 Do it that way, death will occur much quicker.
  6. I'm a freelance Front-End & Interaction Developer and I've just started a new digital studio in Manchester too Definitely nothing labour intensive

    ARMYTRIX anyone?

    On an R35 GTR, melted the boot carpet and left a big discoloured patch on the boot floor beneath. Was billowing smoke out the back apparently.

    ARMYTRIX anyone?

    I was speaking to someone who had one of these exhausts. I certainly won't ever be buying from them after seeing the damage it did to his car after melting the carpet in the boot. Did he get a refund? Did he shite, he got a replacement stainless steel (cheaper) one for the titanium one he paid for, that's currently being sold and never touching his car.
  9. What are the Pirelli Diablo Rosso Corsa like (I assume they were the stock tyres on that too?) Read a few reviews and some have said they're a bit crap in the wet.
  10. Arrived today not next week
  11. If the SLS AMG gearbox wasn't so turd it would be next on my list. The GT looks nice but not enough theatrics about it for my liking. I used to like the C63 but then the chavs seek to have gotten hold of them and attend weekly meets just revving the @*!# off of them then wheel spinning down the road like a bellend.
  12. Just bought a Ducati Monster 796 ABS, have to wait a couple of weeks for it to be delivered but can't wait
  13. "SunTek Premium Self-Healing Paint Protection Film" is what you want! Read quite a few reviews of it and they all come out positive, no idea on price though
  14. Looks nice, shame a 1000cc bike as a first bike would end up with me in a ditch!
  15. PS4 - tsinc Have got BF4 and COD but I'm about to sell COD as it's not my type of MP, prefer BF.
  16. I should be there in Feb and March next year, be good to get a few zeds out too! I think my best time is around 2:05-2:10 in the dry (~630hp GTR). I've seen a few videos of 1:55-1:58s before in various cars. I'm certainly not track experienced so I'm sure a decent driver could get my car round in a lot less!
  17. Not sure, I want something sporty and it's got to be fairly quick so I'm thinking 600cc min. I wish KTM did their RC390 as a 690!
  18. Passed my Mod 2 this morning
  19. Spend £3-4k on the GTR and it'll knock about 1.5-1.7s off stock 30-130 time. Anyone can mod a car to be faster than a GTR, just depends how much you've got to spend. There's sone seriously quick TTRS out there running over 600hp which will see off a GTR…in a straight line. So a stock 370z weighs 270kg less than the GTR and the GTR has 2 more passengers? So around 400kg difference? Pointless video.
  20. Cheeky offer of £15 for The Last of Us if it's mint condition!

    Oulton Park

    There's a few videos on YouTube of people, not in zeds, doing it around 1:55-2:00 minutes.

    R35 Owners

    Service costs - http://www.litchfieldmotors.com/Content/GTR%20Servicing%20parts%20and%20costs-%20September%202014.pdf 2008-2010 cars were on 6 month service intervals whereas 2011 onwards changed to 12 months. A few owners have changed from 6 month to 12 month services now depending on how much the car is used.

    It's not just the running costs you need to know about, it's the never ending modding costs! I've done a couple of track days and not noticed any increase in running costs. Easily get through £100 worth of fuel in a day but the wear on tyres/pads/discs depends what you're running and how hard you are around the track. If you're driving it aggressively and ignoring fluid temps then you will come away needing to spend a fair amount of money on tyres, pads and fluid.

    GTR Exhaust on a Z

    http://www.gtr.co.uk/forum/309185-2013-gtr-parts.html There's one for £150 but I'm sure you could make him an offer. Don't even think it's been used very much going by the other thread he has made. Possibly 6000 miles.
