  1. Anyone fitted one of these? It says its for the 350z post 2003 models? http://www.amazon.co.uk/Nissan-USB3-iPhone-Android-integration/dp/B00Q8OPXPE/ref=sr_1_29?ie=UTF8&qid=1441214421&sr=8-29&keywords=350z+ipod
  2. Good thread! I looked at these too (and the early R8s, M5, M3, RS4, VXR8, Carrera 4), like Sam, none of the German stuff has any thrill for me and I was lucky enough to get into the heats for the Nissan race academy a few years ago and raced the 370s and GTRs, again ok but no sense of occasion. I was on a Europe trip a few years ago and a Masser was there, the guy said he had some horrendus bills to fix the stereo and elec windows but he loved driving it, yea it makes a great noise! I needed a larger (more practical) car last year, so went for a supercharged full size V8 range rover.... F#ck.... ! I love it... Not the best round corners, but feels seriously fast on acceleration and I easilly kept up with a work colleagues 06 350z last week pulling onto the motorway... ha ha ha.. Im smiling now just thinking about it, the torque is crazy and its so quiet and refined inside. its getting 16mpg though! Anyway, I digress, back to the original question. I liked both or even the DB9, but I decided to continue to save and aim to get a F430 or a F599.
  3. Nice one, bring it out to play... see you at the dartmoor run next weekend?
  4. Thanks everyone for the offers, in the end I got a good deal on a new unresonated cobra system, its just arrived and I can't wait till Friday when its being fitted.
  5. Just bought (&received) my unresonated cobra from the cougar store via the forum, its being fitted on Friday. Can't wait.
  6. Oh and to top it all las year they put up the price of my protected (5) years ncb because I had claimed for 2 chips and a new windscreen, which apparently I could claim for without it effecting the ncb. As I said, robbing bas#ards! I'm not bitter....
  7. One thing to remember when shopping around, ask your current insurer what the maximum ncb is that they record. I haven't had an accident in 15 years and was looking around last year. I've got 3 cars at the moment so tried the multi car quote and it worked out cheaper with the new companies maximum 8 yr ncb. When I went back to my insurers to get conformation of the ncb they said they only record a maximum of 5 yes, this took the new quote higher than my renewal and I'm now trapped with my current insurer unless I am prepared to initially see an increase of premiums. Robbing bas#ards!
  8. Car entry no 31, looked nice with the dark gray rays, got my vote for best in show.
  9. Does anyone ever regret posting things on here? I started this topic with an article and picture of what could be the next gtr, I personally liked the styling and thought I'd share it with the group with the intention of some discussion over its looks rather than what it has become, i.e. what bollocks my local Nismo guy is apparently talking and the details of hybrid systems and how achievable they are at present in either LMP or F1. For those of you caught up in this, it was not my intention and I shall in future curtail my need to share such articles and keep my thoughts to myself.
  10. Gonna go cobra, unresonated. Hope its loud enough i want some drama, otherwise it'll be back on sale soon...
  11. 350z unresonated y pipe back too please?
  12. So you think they will release the car, then, start thinking about training all the thousands of technicians around the world? Of course they will need to start the training program way in advance of its release if cars go wrong on day one they will need the know how to fix them and with the hybrid systems onboard its not going to be a 1 hr webinar...
  13. Nismo technicians at the local dealership were talking about it a few weeks back, said they needed training on the hybrid systems and said they had been told by Nissan they would be in by 2018. The new pics certainly look more like a production model than the concept shown last year. We can hope...

  16. If you can't choose one, choose them all http://t04.deviantart.net/8mCrnUBW2iyo0Ak7ZyR_2Lppt1g=/300x200/filters:fixed_height(100,100):origin()/pre06/17ac/th/pre/f/2008/122/6/7/multicoloured_350z_by_vnsupreme.jpg
  17. I did call japspeed today too, they said possibly 6-8 weeks. Trouble is I want something nice for the devon regional run across Dartmoor in September... If bradders mate hasnt got one im guessing it might have to be a choice between a k4 or an unresonated cobra? Decisions decisions....
  18. Yea, have been ringing around, plenty of K4s on shelves, but, looking on YouTube, the k4 sounds quieter...?
  19. I know that many, MANY people hate the K1, but I just fancy trying something a bit lairy for a while, I really dont want subtle , the car is a summer only weekend toy so I can put up with any droning on the short(ish) fun runs I usually do and previous Trans-Ams and Mustangs have been lived with happily on straight pipes or cherry bombs. However in looking around noone has them in stock and it looks like they might be discontinued. Does anyone know if a new (or a second hand) one is around that isn't too far from the west country if it needs collecting, or anywhere else if it can be posted? Ta
  20. Gold wheels on a blue car? Sounds familiar, a la Williams Clio perhaps? http://www.google.co...CFUhVFAodXnIDlg
