Can I just say, there’s no embarrassment warranted for voting to exit the EU, you were sold a pup and it’s now led to impending chaos. The only reason that there isn’t chaos (except in Westminster) is the fact that we’re not out the EU yet.
Can all Brexiteers, please send me all their money, to shorten the process and ensure I survive post leaving the EU please.
Phew, i bet you are pretty thankful the Scots didnt end up getting their independence (using that term lightly as they wanted to be in the eu), at least you can blame Westminster/England for the chaos rather than the SNP if your referendum had gone the other way

they should be £20-25k imo
You cant buy much for £25k these days!

I would start with arb's and get a decent alignment, that was the single biggest improvement i made on my zed, given its probably not overly bumpy a decent set of progressive springs will be up to the job, i never felt the std shocks were too badly dampened to be fair!

its all about 0-60 for me, coming from serious sports bikes
The only thing that will change that is a supercharger, there isnt a remap in the world that will alter a 350z's 0-60 sorry to say

Well to go against popular opinion there is not a chance i would spend 10% of the cars value for a remap plus the bits required and looking at the advisory sheet i would be getting a decent set of matching tyres on and if there is anything left over, some lowering springs (if thats your bag) and arb's, will make way way more difference than a remap
You could even be sensible as judging by the advisories i think you could do worse than get a full service and get it back to tip top running order

Have you got arb's buddy?

You are lucky, you have the Zed Shed in Ferndown, a bunch of very friendly enthusiasts who are happy to help with problems, modifications (exhaust etc), they have got me out of a hole more times than i remember. I am sure @Keyser the shed owner will be a long to say Hi

Its not, de and rev up are the same, its only the hr that differs.

Sorry no idea, just pm zmanlex, you dont hear of many cats failing to be honest and if you have billed the garage for sports cats you will have some credit left to buy them!
-
Be very careful with sports cats, there is absolutely no guarantee they will pass emissions and likely to throw a engine management light. If you want to go sports cats do it after and get some 2nd cats to get you through the mot, try Keyser or Zmanalex on here for 2nd hand cats! You are just asking for another headache if the sports cats fail.
Doesnt mean you cant bill the dealer for the sports cats of course as a reasonable replacement, seeing as he has had your pants down
-
If its on the web as fail, no retest was done, Jay will confirm that. The dealer is flat out lying!
-
For a grand you could get a nice aftermarket system and high flow cats, which in fairness most people do anyway. Or just get some 2nd cats, pass the mot and keep your eye out for a 2nd hand exhaust.

I would be asking for a grand off (get a price for new cats from Nissan) or come and collect the car, repair, mot and return or money back.
-
I think he meant how did you work out its not the garage selling the car who is mot'ing it, which you have answered earlier, because they dont do mot's
-
I have a real hankering for a 4c at the moment and is on the radar, very surprised it came out on top (although not by much), just a remap takes it from 240 to 280hp which is the most you can get from the standard ecus and a pretty healthy jump, by all accounts the ecu for the gearbox will not accept any more power than 280hp from the main ecu, a race ecu and you are up to 320hp, hyrbid turbo 340hp and twin scroll 380hp + all on std internals.
Alfawerks are developing a crank to take it to 2.0l or you can forge a std one, being that its just the aluminium Giulietta engine you could pick one up from a scapppy for 50p and forge away in the background.

It is possible it could be the white heater control box that sits behind the heater controls, i think from memory it also outputs to the central pods. Alex will confirm as above!

You have every right to return the car and the law is on your side, however, it doesnt stop it being an absolute pain to get the dealer to either fix the car or return your money. I do believe you have to give the dealer an opportunity to sort the problem before he has to return your money so:
My suggestion would be to phone trading standards and they will advise you of the process you need to go through.
Sorry to be critical, but as you know you can check an mot on line which you should have done and not trusted the dealer.
Should be easy to put right, just buy a 2nd hand set of cats and get fitted.

**** you all, brown leather is a lovely colour on the right car
Yes if you are 60+, but then again i guess that is the average age of 911 owner

Not sure any 911 would convince me to part with £100k but that’s a very subjective thing, I’d be sniffing around Aston at this price point, but I just love their vibe. Gorgeous though.
I am with you all the way on that, 100k seems like a huge chunk for a bottom of the line 911, but when a Cayman can be £75k, i guess its just the way the car industry is going

But people voted based on lies, fabrications

Let me guess, i read it wrong, seems to be a lot of that on this thread
-
Exactly the same as how Magzz assumed everyone voted leave because they were scammed by the bus, which he has repeated time and again, as i said "perhaps" the other statement was the most important, not it is, quite a difference

Brexit again
in Off Topic Discussion
Posted
The poorest households and lower skilled workers voted to leave, which has been well documented. So why dont you ask them why they will be happy to pay 20% (or 5% for balance as its purely circumspect) to leave, or perhaps ask yourself how the EU has helped them as they obviously dont see it that way!
