  1. http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/79068-azure-fairlady-z-uk-spec-upgrades/ Worth a look at.
  2. At the end of the day, any car can be bullet proof, as long as it's been looked after (FSH Etc) But yeah these cars are pretty solid, treat them right and they will treat you right. Many Import owners upgrade all there breaks/seats etc - so you will see a few for sale with all the toys
  3. All depends what you're after buddy. Import or UK model Gt or Non GT spec (Brembo Breaks, Heated Leather Seats, Bose speakers etc.) Mileage? You'll be able to pick a nice JDM Import model for that money, they go for 4-5.5k. Fairly low miles. For a UK GT you may get lucky you never know.
  4. Ladies, I think Matt's going again (for the first time ) Next Wednesday! 26th?
  5. Why don't you try 29 more times....http://www.hotukdeals.com/deals/30-pregnancy-tests-for-2-74-free-delivery-ebay-co-uk-1829747 Someone at work just sent me this in an email.
  6. thats why i bought a da to get rid of the swirl marks and scratches left by the previous owner No idea what a 'da' was thought was a typo.
  7. Can I use a few of those little silicon bags you get in packaging? The one's that say 'Do NOT eat, Do NOT throw in the BIn' - So they just end up floating around at work...
  8. I thought about this, and in the end it just didn't turn out viable with me with 2*Tax's, 2*MOT's, 2*Service/Maintenance, Running Cost etc, with all that added up, it just wouldn't make much difference in terms of the miles/selling my car when it comes to it. All that being said - The only true shed I would buy is a Mk3 Golf. Strong Engine, Reliable car - Parts are easy to source, easy to carry out work your self. Fuel Efficient. http://www4.autotrad...155tq?logcode=p And that's petrol, few diesels on there as well. If you are buying this to save your self money etc, you need to basically scrap the idea of going fast and looking good in it. At the end of the day it's a shed, and it's there to save you money, not to be a 2nd Zed. These are awesome cars! Hope this helps. Hope **edit - Before I got my Zed, I almost needed to buy a cheap run around, and almost picked up a MK3 golf for around £200 - The head unit in the car was worth more than the car So they do come up cheap, Gumtree will be a good place for a shed. **
  9. Might be a bit too far, we've had people from birmingham turn up before http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/81572-hampsire-meet-west-meon-sunday-16th-march/#entry1216403
  10. Well that's every angle covered in a short few posts
  11. All I know is, you shouldn't use the 'sponge' word - http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/2663-a-simple-guide-to-car-detailing/ have a read there.
  12. I'm sure I heard he trialed one, and couldn't get the fitment right, ask Aliveboy. Hopefully he will pop in to clarify.
  13. Polish - 2 or 3 pea sized blobs on the pad, spread on the panel then work. Wax - a swipe with the applicator and then apply to the car. Sealants - depends on the sealant; some I apply like a polish but spray sealants either get sprayed onto the panel then spread or sprayed onto a microfibre cloth and spread onto the panel. It's trial and error that determines which. Great advice, thaaaaank you.
  14. Another quick Question - How do you go about applying the Polish/Wax - Do you blob a few spots on the panel, or apply to mitt and then to car?
  15. Yep. From those, the Megs and AF are good for paste/hard waxes. Blackfire and Flexipads are better for sealants & liquid waxes (IMO), but still good for other waxes too. Cheers buddy
  16. http://www.polishedbliss.co.uk/acatalog/microfibre-towels-and-applicators.html So these sorts of things?
  17. Yup, shipping costs and import duty's a nightmare from the US. Also your scre###d if they don't deliver. I made a purchase from EVO-r's website and never received the goods, they now just ignore my e-mails/calls! See there is this possibility, you have a friend, so you could have it mailed to him, and he ships to the UK. I'm sure I read somewhere about import duty is different/or voided if the item is a gift/preasent? (clearly marked on the product Gift) Don't hold me to that though, just something I glanced across.
  18. What they said
  19. Would anyone be interested in a number plate which essentially says/looks like BloJob? G10JOB on the car with the black screw in the right place along with G looking slightly different (legal) Also what price tag? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  20. Honestly wouldn't risk the import duty After looking at Big Gay Wings, £300 for the wing, £500 for import! The way I see it is, spend £100 on Black JDM, few months down line, someone has stock, sell mine for £50-£80
  21. Looks very happy! Seem's Lola has settled in quite quickly!
  22. Think he's been out of stock for quite some time. I ended up just getting the Black JDM version, and wait till a later date for the CF. GL with your search.
  23. Was a awesome read up - Just one question, couldn't see it covered in the OP and in the 1st 3 pages, - What's the best products to use to APPLY the Wax/Polish? In the past with my Meg's Clay kit, it came with to round sponge type (might me microfibre, no idea) to apply and to remove. Going to be doing an order soon, so be good to be able to order everything I need.
  24. It's catching on! .....
