  1. Bit too expensive imo

     

    Agreed, I picked up my azure UK300 with 25k on the clock and a year newer for 8k. Appreciate a lot of money etc has gone into the car but I really don't think it will get bought for that money.

     

    Was yours turbo charged then?

  2. Bit too expensive imo

     

    Really? You're looking around that sort of price for the turbo install alone surely? I dont think its too bad when you work out of the cost on the Turbo install, all the parts installed.

     

    Whats a 25k mile standard Zed of this year going for? 7k - 8k?

    If your not getting a good foam then use my method as I get REALLY thick foam!

     

    Turn the dial on the top of the foam lance all the way clockwise, then turn it back a touch.

     

    Fill the bottle up with an inch of snowfoam, a squirt of shampoo and the rest with warm water

    Because she's worth it!! :teeth:

     

    I like to think more of the Herbal Essences advert when cleaning my car!

  4. I take it the Supercharger runs sweet? How many miles has it done since it was 'charged?

     

    Great project! :)

     

    Seems to run great actually - Im sure theres going to be a few problems - i've only done about 200 miles in it at the moment - Im waiting for a qoute from abbey motorsport to have it all checked over :)

    I contacted the previous owner, he assures me its been charged for 5000. I however find this hard to believe, so i refuse to push it until its checked

     

    Sweet! Hopefully it's all good, i am sure it will be! Would be nice to find out how many horses its running :)

  5. Haha! Yea I guess I cant really comment on anything BUT the standard system! But it sounds so nice when you hit 3K, so nice that I wouldnt want to change it!

     

    But hopefully when I get to some meets I can have a listen to some aftermarket systems! :)

     

    And the standard box Neil is not stainless, hence why it doesnt stay shiny like mine! :( This would be my only reason for changing mine over!

    Make sure the nozzle is OPEN all the way!

     

    I have fantasic results with mega thick foam!

  7. Fuel cost, insurance, ferry....

     

    Have you thought about what the cost would be if you broke down on the ring, or crashed, or even spilt oil on the ring? Mega bucks!!! You need to make sure you know exactly what your insurance covers!

  8. I have a gaming rig running a nVidia GTX690 GPU - Chew on that console owners!

     

    Although I dont get time to use it, it still blows me away how realist Skyrim and Crysis is. Makes a PS3 and 360 look like a Sega Saturn!

  9. The best free sat nav for your phone is M8 Sat Nav, I dont know if there is a way you can get that on the head unit, incredible for a free app!

     

    I have been looking at this Pioneer App Unit in halfords for £149.99, I really want it! I'm glad it's been fitted ok!

  10. Hi, Just signed up as I'm currently thinking about purchasing a 350z and thought it would be a good idea to find out a bit more about the car before I buy. I'm from Norfolk and sorry have no excuses for that apart from I was born here, the only other Nissan I've owned was a Skyline R33 GTST which is a great car I think you will agree and I loved it but unfortunately after 4 years of ownership it was sent on its way to car heaven by a elderly lady puling out in front of me at a crossroads, I was travelling at just under 60mph and had to ditch it. My now Wife and I survived un-hurt and so did the elderly lady.

     

    After that event I bought a old BMW E34 518 I liked the retro looks and thought I needed a sensible car for a while, it was a good car and solid but a year of ownership I was craving just a little more power lol. So as I was impressed by the BMW build quality and reliability I went out and bought a E36 328i. Its actually quite a nice looking car and the power is usable, dropped on coilovers 18" alloys, nice blue metallic but the build quality is poo and I'm constantly fixing it. So after two years of that I've decided to change for something more modern, the 350z looks great and Being Nissan and a bit of reading reliable with a good standard power output, so that's what I'm going for next its decided!

     

    I would really like a white 350z but they seem quite rare, as for modifications lowering is essential and a nice set of aftermarket rims will see me a very happy Norfolk boi !

     

    How can you say the build quality of the E36 is poo! Im outraged by this.

     

    Have you seen the heaps of @*!# produced between 96 - 99 by other manufacturers? The E36 is an incredible car in my books!

     

    Oh, and hi! :)

  11. Haha 16k! You can buy 3 x 350Z's for that price!

     

    I really didnt expect them to come back and say its dead though! I would get the car back, I bet someone could fix it!
