    Nismo GTR

    7:26 or 7:29 was the original GTR before the 550bhp ones. Knocking 20 seconds off that time is pretty damn impressive!
  2. Stretch to an HR if you can. I've a DE '04 and if I had to do it again I'd be happy to pay the extra tax and outright cost.
  3. The stuff is legendary! I think the UV coating is on the inside of the lens, but it should really be on the outside. So might be worth while looking into it so it doesn't happen again.
  4. Good to know my insurance isn't up until the start of March, but I'm currently with admiral who are apparently afraid of more than 5 mods. I'll give you a call in a few months It probably makes not much of a difference unless your driving it hard and for long periods, even if not, unless you have an UpRev, it makes 0 difference.
  5. It'll work. Get a microfiber cloth, and apply some polish to it, then polish the light, leave it to dry for 10 minutes then buff off with another microfiber, simple as May take a few goes though, depending on how bad it is.
  6. Well it's about time How are you guys for modifications? some insurers don't like more than 5...
  7. May prove difficult to find. Replicas are usually pretty good and don't cost the earth.
  8. I am quite aware... Careful, the fish police might be called On a side note, do they not eat each other? Don't think the law was created to protect fish however, more likely feeding reptiles I should imagine. Personally I'm not against it myself and sometimes it's the only way to kick start an animals appetite unfortunately.
  9. Where is the 'door closing behind me on the way out if this thread' emotion thing?
  10. I wear Serengeti's, no idea which ones, I just bought them in Mexico a few years ago because they looked good, my Oakleys were FUBAR'd, and they were a little geeky in being slightly 'reactive' lenses. They really keep the glare out of my eyes and i've not had any blind moments with them yet
  11. That's because live feeding is illegal in the UK...
  12. Stick to black, colours seem to look cheap unless the rest of the car has a secondary colour for accents etc...
  13. I wonder how many if those watcher are from this place just watching out of interest? Not me of course...

    DPE Wheels

    stuff that! Buy a set of Volks for half that.
  15. Yup they've sent the brembo kit, check to make sure you definitely ordered the right ones. Send them back to be replaced/refund, I'm sure it'll be fine either way

    Flashers

    I flash, even if the other owner doesn't, nothing lost
  17. Because when the suspension travels the wheels dont just go up and down, they tuck into the arches slightly at the top too. So by dropping the car by 30mm, you will have the top of the wheel tucked slightly up and inside the arch, i.e. negative camber. Also because of the suspension system on the zed, with negative camber comes toe in as well. So, changes are after dropping the car by 30mm, you'll have camber of around 3 degrees, (2 degrees max in OEM specs) and several mm of toe in (2.7mm max in OEM specs). The zeds OEM adjustments arent enough to bring it back in to line a lot of the time. So it's best to get it checked and adjusted. If it cant be adjusted enough, you'll have to buy a rear caber kit.
  18. The Tein springs are a nice drop, but then so is a 30mm drop from Apex, Eibach etc, but you will most likely need a camber kit for the rear if you buy anything other than the Teins. They all fit the same way and are pretty easy to do, jus a little awkward to get a few of the nuts and bolts off, especially if they're corroded up a bit.
  19. Glad it worked out Annoying it's down to someone in Nissan to register these thing correctly, but working for Nissan means they should know the colour is orange and not red, especially when one of the stock colours was red. Same with the model, i've heard of V5's that read "350Z Rays" because it came with Ray alloys or one guy in my down with a Chilli red and factory Nismo kit reads "350Z Nismo" when clearly it isn't a Nismo 350Z as I believe the only 350Z Nismo was actually the 380RS.
  20. Clearly some idiot has been in charge of registering it. For his peace of mind, let him check the vin numbers in all the various places to see they match, then maybe pop a bit of trim off to show him it hasn't had a colour change respray.
  21. Full lock also works, just a little more fiddly to get one or two of the poppers out
  22. Remove the wheel, arch liner and you should have good access
