  1. I think I'm possibly the most excited person on the planet right now!
  2. Looking at that picture, i completley forgot what the thread was about!
  3. Just be smoother with your driving style as a first. Try tablets first, it may help cure it without having to spend loads of dollar.
  4. Always have a soft spot for these beasts. but echoing what someone else has said. I dislike DRL on all cars. and on here, i think they just dont suit it. Apart from that, Beautiful!
  5. http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/71716-my-nurburgring-13-trip/ that was my trip to ring. Just need to upload some photos
  6. Happy birthday!! Nice to meet you last night!
  7. Sorry to see the smash but please if you get another one dont put that spoiler back on ahaha, the spoiler is just for track use. i came back from nurburgring on monday night and didnt have time to take it off before i went to work on tuesday.
  8. got some 17's? bright orange oz racing wheels. Ofset is around 40-50, but ill give you the spacers to make fit?
  9. Police were driving past, so stopped to make sure no-one was injured etc.
  10. It looks like one of the wooden posts has bent the door sills and where the passenger door shuts, looks like it could be quite badly bent. Thats the only problem which may cost a fiar amount.
  11. I have gold, looks good when clean, when dirty, it looks bronze, so you get away with it
  12. worth a shot.... http://www.ebay.co.u...=item1e7b5f722f
  13. Ahah, like previously stated, the car will now by converted into a track car. having a good quality paint job is seriously the least of my worries right now. and if its a track car, it may potentially never even see the road again.
  14. it will be effectivley cheaper to not go through insurance. a 3-4k payout, then double insurance, so may aswell be a 2-3k payout. then have to find 2-3k to buy a new zed. or repair for approx 2k
  15. Ild rather not go through insurance, I'm 20 so I will be stung for a few years.
  16. Cheers guys. Nope airbags haven't gone off. Looks like i need to buy a new shell, then transfer everything across.
  17. It drives fine. I drove it from the top of my road, about a mile, because the recovery truck couldn't turn round. And a lot of it looks cosmetic. Just need to get it looked at to see if the chassis is bent!
  18. Thing is, it drives pure straight. So apart from cosmetic, it's fine? First off fix passenger rear quarter and door so it shuts, then repair it panel at a time. Rather than have to pay out all at once?
  19. Yeah, just as I left work.
  20. So, after a weekend of nurburgring, I've managed to wreck my zed on the way home. Coming onto a 2 lane slip road onto m'way which is a left sweeping bend, was in right lane, ground was wet, accelerating from 30-50mph, car to left started to come into me, so hit the breaks and car spun off and through a wooden lot of posts. Absolutely gutted. Need front wings, 2 doors, 2 rear wings, rear bumper, rear light, Going to get a garage to view the structure tomorrow to see if its damaged underneath. I drove it, drives perfectly straight.
  21. Ryanmi do insurance, they quoted me £200 for the weekend but i chose not to because its not like a trackday in the uk where you push it to the extreme levels. i look at it as a one way country road. i didnt time myself, but i think i done a mid 9minutes. so im not pushing it. i wasnt there to set lap times, i was there to enjoy the whole weekend with my mates and see the famous place. I had brake fade when i came past the gantry and had to break at about 140ish. on the first lap i was nervous so was breaking at every corner, but after i calmed down, i was just letting off then accelerating out the bends without breaking, thus not using breaks as much. and like i said, i have standard JDM set up with only red stuff pads. car has done 101,000 miles. and it performed fine. I will however be upgrading to brembos, cause i plan on doing more trackdays this year which il be pushing the car harder and harder. Even though your car is fast, you are not. you will be overtaken by a mk1 golf. and every car that you thought you could overtake, will be gone. just be smooth is what i found. mirrors all the time, and indicate right and pull right over so they know that you've seen them behind you. There is a real nice place to eat called pinnocihos. which i will highly reccomend. Also, if you get a chance, go find adenu-forst and watch from there. great place to view.
  22. i think to pull off them wheels you need to be slammed to the ground, otherwise they just look poor and out of place.
