  1. Welcome buddy.. Good luck with the hunt...
  2. Can't agree more, I did the Performance driver course (http://www.catdrivertraining.co.uk/inde ... l-day.html) with Colin If you're not sure about spending the £1k on a course do a trial day on the Gymkhana day http://www.catdrivertraining.co.uk/inde ... khana.html Honestly, can't recommend the guys enough, I would do the gymkhana again in a heart beat This is a leading contender, will send requests later and see if any deals can be offered to forum members. lets hope so...
  3. Just a quick update, going to fire off a few enquiries about this tonight.. will update again as soon as I can..
  4. Cheers m8.. Were those done under Nissan warranty? I will also try and check direct with Nissan to see what they say...
  5. Hello, 1) Can some1 confirm if the 350z has a paint warranty is 13 years or is it Body quaility and corrosion that is 13 years. 1) If you get a respray 1 or more panels how does that affect the warranty. 2) If you get a respray can you ensure that the warranty is not affected or does it null and void it? 3) Is rust covered under the warranty? Cheers All...
  6. that does make sense, i was holding it.. I am certain it was me, a couple of test drives and another drive of this will verify.. i will also get a couple of the guys in the actual garage bit (one a 350z former owner) to take it out.. they were all sound guys...
  7. I have put a deposit down, they have removed from sale, its all fully refundable. I will go back and drive again. i literally met everyone who worked there, all complete petrol heads so I will also get the mechanics to take it out and see what they think... I am in love: see pics
  8. to do a like for like comparison is testing an 05/06 worthwhile or are th 07 onwards different transmission and box set ups?
  9. Solution. But beware that man,that was post '666' spoookeyy. Thats good advice.. I will be aware All, thanks so much so far. You really are helping and this is an awesome forum.
  10. all gears were fine, it did go in 5th no worries when i found it, i just seemed to travel wide right of the gate, is that possible? another test drive is an absolute must i feel... its the other end of the country to me, so its getting expensive i loved it..
  11. your a sick man©.. Edge of city centre my friend.. and you.. PM if its easier.. I WOULD love to compare in yours... that would be amaizing bud..
  12. its an 07 313 coupe, 1 owner 13k mileage on the clock car. left a deposit on it as its refundable and I loved it, and i am sure it will be me getting used to it..
  13. it was when going from 4th to 5th, and no buddy did not know they were sprung.. thankyou I just hope it was me not knowing how to drive the car.. is it possible to go right of the 5th gate?
  14. Hi, Test drove a lovely 350z yesterday, gear change was fine, no noises (it had its p3 in nov). 13k on the clock. But I kept struggling to find/get it into 5th gear, absolutely no grind/whirring etc . The guy out driving with me took it on an additional run with him driving after me, he got it into 5th no problem at low speeds and at spirited levels of driving no problem.. S0: 1) Does the transmission spacing take some getting used to? Its just I floated into all other gears but often felt like I was travelling wide right of 5th? It’s having an AA inspection on Tue and I am asking for that to be focussed on, on the road test. 2) I am buying it from a garage. In addition to the AA test is it worth me asking them to have a proper look, they seemed really genuine and I am sure they would… 3) I also have a 6month return to base warranty direct with them (not insuranced backed). So could always take to an inde as soon as I get it and get a 2nd inspection. what do you think? I fell in love with the car and I am hoping it was my gear changing not the car Would you more experienced folk have any concerns? P.s I have searched the forum for an hour and could not find much, found loads on the programs 5th gear and top gear, but not much about this issue. Please help me.. I would be so great full.
  15. yeah, I have to take wear into account. Is there anyway to validate air bags are broken? If I do a swap out, I would be suggesting to get it done at a garage who is capabale between the me and whom ever swaps.. I just like the Alazan.. I am picking up a genuine 313 nismo so I may sprink the cabin with some nismo gear.. that will remove concern for gear knob wear... However Money is going on driving lessons 1st.. I dont want to be "all the gear and no idea"
  16. Good info, cheers.. does that create a risk of introducing battered parts etc...
  17. Good advice..I will look at all options...
  18. Sounds very interesting indeed, welsh mad frogs, F1, Top Guy, what’s not to like... Something called work is in the way today so I will send some e-mails and comms to those recommended and see what deals we can get. I will keep everyone fully posted... will send comms tonight and as soon as I have some ideas on figures, deals to numbers ratio, availability etc. Keep the recommendations coming please..
  19. i, I am picking up a 07 GT sn with black leather and orange dbl sticth seats.. I prefer the burnt orange leather and was wondering if anyone wanted to do a like for like swap, must be same GT 313 seats (or correct me on that if it makes mo difference) same condition and i must see them working. As you can in return etc, etc... Any ideas, takers etc... etc...
  20. I stand corrected.. Group Bye, changes to Group Buy.. Not doing well with not being a d*ck.. and it was only 1 of 2 rules.. .. Genuinely I am useless at spelling since young, I expect no mercy..
  21. cool, I will do some digging and keep you all posted.. I will post here and PM just in case... Lets see if we can get a group bye.. so we can do this better..
  22. I agree.. I love em, always have... If I can get a bag in it, and drive, everything else is optional... Sleeping will be hard for several days now
