  1. Berlina Black as it's called is pretty common really dude, you should be able to have a good choice of what's about. My only advice would be to try and get a GT car, which comes with the hard top as these will always command a high price used and the fitting kit is expensive too, you'd be lucky to get a complete kit for under a £1000. If I was to go again, I'd go for a Formula Red one I think.
  2. Pretty much how I treat all drivers on the road anyway . Safe riding dude !!
  3. I be dead in the hour on a bike.
  4. I think, the same seller recently sold a Invidia exhaust system too, picture background and location seem to be the same. Maybe written off .
  5. Romford Nissan also told me that Nissan don't make a manual 370Z Coupe, the manual only comes as Roadster.
  6. Nice EmTree. Baby sick green too. I love the sound these make (tinie rasp).
  7. My car had adjustable Bilstien (one way, non damping) coilovers fitted in place of the OEM set up .
  8. Here is what I was running geo wise and a few pics from those times I mentioned. Loved this car .
  9. Pretty sure that all S2000s are on coilovers, are they not? A lot of it is to do with the geo of the cars, as well as the suspension setup. The later cars also moved to decent rubber, as well as bigger and heavier wheels. They're not a particularly snappy or bad-handling car, but much like the CGT you have to know what you're doing with regards to setup to get the most out of them. The OEM dampers and springs are non adjustable man. Mine was on Bilstiens and I had a FRSU done, then tweaked to suit me by Tom at TGM. I also had the better OEM S2 17's that improved things loads. It was set up pretty well man but I don't profess to be a driving master, I know what's what's but that's only 10% of being able to do it. I had it round Castle Coombe in day and it was proper on song that day on that circuit, that and a few certain laps of the Ring are my fondest memories of that car.
  10. getting off the throttle is the worst thing you can do, go against instinct and get your foot in !! Coming off just catches grip, bites and tank slaps the hell out if you !! S2000's are pretty well known for being unforgiving.
  11. Ain't this the truth. The S2000 is insanely stiff, couple that with 50/50 weight and it's like a spinning top. I had mine on coilovers and when it goes, it's gone, you need to be super sharp to catch it. I span one year coming out of Eau Rouge at Spa, at about 80 and I thought I was dead. It also spat me out on the Ring at Brunchenn but I managed to catch it well enough to just end up power sliding around the whole bend then pulling up on the grass. Needed new knickers and a glass of milk afterwards though. It really is a edgy son of a swine, but when you get it right it's so rewarding. If you've not guessed mine was a non ESP version. Compare this to my 370Z ( I know it's not 350Z) and the experience is a much more controlled affair. The body has more flex and is more forgiving. You get that extra second of lightness that tells you the back is alive and you can counter it and control it. The slides I was getting at an airfield day recently were a world apart from what control I had in the S2000. If the S2000 has a 1 second window the 370Z has a 3 second gap. I would expect the 350Z to be similar. If I was a better driver, I may have enjoyed the S2000 perhaps more. But I'm not and at times it was scary. SRSLY.
  12. No man, thats seconds, they're teh respective Ring lap times.
  13. I prefered the K20 in my EP3 than I did the F20 in my S2000. My K20 when finished tuning was 201 at the wheels and the F20 222 at the wheels when finished.
  14. As above really, last night (Sunday, 22nd September) black, clean 350 with a personal, short number plate. Must ahve been about 8PM, going anti clockwise towards the M4. I wasn't in my 370, I was in a purple Fiesta, lol. Looked smart in the darkness.
  15. The online on GTA4 was good, however I expect the inline on 5 to be like Read Dead, which was good but flawed. This will be much better I expect.
  16. Just Timberlands and Y fronts on Trevor is the best possible look for him. That's it, done. Don't bother with anything else. Oh and a Mig in the background.
  17. Lol, that's an Amuse kitted S2000. Done right on and on a Time Attack, it works and looks sick. Parked up at a circuit day in Britain with Japanese decals it looks pathetic . I loved the sound my S2000 made, under load and all the way to 9800rpm with the roof down was so much fun. I've posted it before in here somewhere but there's a vid of me going all out across the start/finish at Spa. I think that's the only sound video I have of it . Sounds good though .
  18. I read somewhere he's a boxer now. His let down in the UFC was his cardio, if he didn't wipe them out in the 1st he was on the canvas in the 2nd . Anyway, back to GTA........ I have that iFruit App that turns Chop Chop into a Tamagotchi !!!
  19. I had an S2000 for 3 years, full Mugen system, coilovers, etc.. tracked it a number of times over here, Europe and the Ring. Truly great car. I bought a 370Z to replace it as I wanted something more comfortable and grown up. As others have said, the only similarity is the RWD and seat number, the rest really is chalk and cheese.
  20. He wasn't a UFC fighter originally though. Started fighting in backyard brawls which were put online, then got a shot to go on The Ultimate Fighter TV show and then ended up in the UFC Most of the fighters in the UFC were from Pride, Strikeforce, TUF or other fight series, I don't see what point you are trying to make ?? What's that got to do with the fact that I gave him a beard as I thought he was built like KS ??? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk - now Free
  21. Why ?? Technological reasons or government constraints/TAX reasons ?? Or something else ??
