  1. That is a really good point about bringing it back to the UK I never though about that. I will likely be there for good but you never know. Did you have an automatic or manual Mustang? I like the C7 coupe with removable hard roof, did the older versions have the same do you know?
  2. Hey man, Idea of the difference with decats: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/90016-nismo-exhaust-with-de-cats/ Decats will cause you problems at the MOT unless you have a friendly garage :-) Cheers Steely
  3. on a more sensible note the older version z06 is around 40k, doesnt looks as good but...
  4. http://www.cargurus.com/Cars/l-Used-Chevrolet-Corvette-Dallas-d1_L33702#listing=104424048 Just seen this looks awesome.
  5. Thanks for all the responses! I probably should have mentioned I will get a truck with work so will have that for the dull stuff (camping hauling etc) company will prob get me a dodge v8 truck. The point about the heat got me, I actually spend most of my time in Dubai so I know what its like in the desert but it was my understanding that texas was hot but only about half the year, when were you guys there? Had a look on bbc weather and march to June looks quite hot. The convertable idea was also with hopes of road trips which I thought would be cool, I took my girlfriend on a road trip round europe in the zed and I actually got bitched at that she was only getting a tan on one arm and that we should have got a roadster haha. I am thinking of spending about 30k USD max but if it was something awesome maybe a bit more. I really like the look of the 2015 challenger posted above! Dont think I will get another 350 as I am moving to states should get something different, I like the 370 a lot though. Not a huge camero fan. I will look at corvette prices, my friend had one in Dubai seemed he had a lot of hassle with it but it may have just been the poor garage service. had to google miata lol, think the 370 is small and nimble in states :-) Thanks for all the responses!
  6. Hi All, I am moving to Dallas, TX in a few months and will have to sell my 350 which will break my heart as its perfect. I looked at taking it over with me but its not possible. I am looking for ideas, I am moving with my girlfriend who fancies a mustang, I drove a hire one last year but in my opinion it wasnt very good, the automatic box seemed to take an age to respond when I put the foot down. I think this will have been a low power model though. So I have been looking at 5l GT convertable mustangs and I really like the Dodge challenger but its not a convertable. Cars I was considering: 370z obviously, I would like the convertable but the boot space is whats putting me off. Mustang Convertable (possibly manual if I can convince my girlfriend) Dodge, Challenger Any Suggestions?
  7. Nice growl off that, seems like the dog loves it too
  8. Maybe finding a "friendly" garage is your best option and don't buy new cats, BUY DECATS!!!!
  9. Hi All, I recently fitted decat's to my Nismo exhaust system and took some before/after videos for anyone else thinking about doing the same. Under 2k revs its still reasonably normal, above and I love it, not for everyone though. standard cats fitted) de-cats fitted.) Both videos taken with the same phone camera, hope this helps someone. Cheers Steely
  10. @ newkid, imo you should just buy it and wrap it as 6k is low for 40k miles especially with the exhaust already done. I bought a silver zed recently after having a sunset one and after painting the wheels and handles black I now love the silver. Good luck with the sale LloydV.
  11. Is that a shifter or a handbrake?

    Latest Zed

    Assorted photos of my new zed bought from LincolnBaggie.
  13. I just bought Neil's (Lincolnbaggie's) zed and its on its original clutch at 77k and it still feels fine. Owned by 2 forum members before me and it shows. Started looking at a stage 2 and lightweight flywheel to get done soon so I don't have the hassle of a failure.
  14. Couple of Zeds from Burma. Seen a few 350's driving around with some loud exhausts, they go all out over here, some of the Honda hybrids are even rocking SS exhausts with some neon under lighting. Cheers, Steely
  15. When summer rolls in places like ASDA usually do good deals on a lot of camping and outdoor stuff. Where are you thinking of going? Campsites or wild. I used to go camping up loch lomand quite a lot, onshore then using boats out to the islands, think its banned to camp outwith sites now though.
  16. I like that steering wheel, where did you get it? DId you say your original controls or were they already fitted on the new wheel?
