  1. So, I got a Scorpion exhaust from Tarmacsportz ( :thumbs:) fitted at the tail end of last year but over the last few weeks noticed a vibrating noise when the car first started and when slowing down/coming down the revs - figured this is the heat shield on the cats as they are a bit of a state!

     

    Anyways, when my head is under the car checking out the cats, I noticed a dripping coming from the joint where the Y Pipe connects to the mid pipe.

     

    Tried tightening up the bolts, but water keeps dripping out when I start the car and let warm up.

     

    Is this possibly just a crap gasket (cheapo £3 ebay job, exhaust kit did not have gaskets)? Does it make any difference to the performance etc?

     

    Any advice much appreciated!

     

  2. Don't mean to be a dick, but you can get those tail lights on eBay for about £160 delivered brand new, I got a set 2 months ago :)

     

    you got a link to that mate?

  3. dads first car, this ones actually newer, he had an old Y reg

     

    I wont even post a pic of the brown interior as you will recoil from your screen in horror.

     

    wheels look like came from a milk float!

    someone actually broke into it and stole the tape deck!

  4. Who cares what some fat middle class actor thinks about your car?

     

    Literally every other review I have read/heard on the 350 have been positive! These clowns are only interested in TV ratings, and trying to be 'funny'

     

    ....and there about a funny as kidney stones.

  5. People have always keyed nice cars, even when I was a kid, I remember my Dad going

     

    ballistic when somebody keyed his car...Mindless, Moron, Fu**k Wits...complete Scum,

     

    people who do that...!!! Lets hope for their sake I never catch them at it..!!! :thumbdown:

     

    We never really had decent cars when i was younger, so it wasnt really a problem. Although one time someone popped the window and nicked the cassette deck out my dads mk3 escort and he had to drive around with a black bag as a window for weeks!

     

    If people target this, they will target anything. Beige exterior/brown interior. Sweet...

  6. Just checking its not on the wanted list as he had no v5 but I sort of know him, the funny thing was he was sweating, I'm thinking he just hacked up his missus or someone, so I said come on tell me what you've done, he gave me a reciept and a boot full of goodies !!!

    Told me its 2.5k worth, it's a bit "riced" I'll still a pic up once I check it on dvla visa etc

     

    prob best not posting this kind of stuff on the tinterweb if there a chance its been nicked, which it sound like it has!

  7. Wow, there are a few big numbers flying about here!

    Try elephant - you need to pay up front to get the best price, but mine was only 430 p/yr and I only have 3 yr no claims. No accidents or bans in the last 5 yrs though. The low insurance was one of the main reasons I finally bought a zed!

  8. yep its really in good nic for its age (59k on the clock when bought) no scratches dings, etc. Drivers seat leather is a bit thin in places, but not that bad. Plus the chap who i bought it off got the wheels refurbished a couple of months before selling it, so they look brand new!

  9. Got myself a nice black 2004 54 plate 350Z GT in November last year and have used the forum a few times to do minor repair jobs and swap the HU.

     

    Have to say, the forum is very handy and think its only fair I post something.

     

    Anyway without waffling on, here it is. Its completely stock with all the usual GT stuff, other than the new HU to replace the skipping BOSE p.o.s.

     

    Cheers,

    Scott
