  1. Good to see you're looking after your Zed. The red look's very nice indeed all polished up.
  2. That's a "Louie Spence" aerial. Stubby will look much better.
  3. Sounds like it will be great fun then John and at least the new brakes will get some good use then.
  4. Alloys of course imo. Most people won't even notice whether the cars lowered or not (unless it's slammed to the ground) so the alloys will be the most noticeable change if that's what you want. Do it for you though rather than a bunch of random strangers at JapFest.
  5. Pity you're not getting it fitted before. Still I'm sure the 370 will be great fun on the ring anyway or are you hiring another car to go on track or have I got the wrong end of the stick & you're just visiting the ring?
  6. Very nice Zed and it will be even better once the chargers on. Those brakes look fantastic btw.
  7. You can add your location to your avatar/picture thing on the side btw.
  8. Can you find it and put a link for Sam Jc? The only one I could find on there which is close to what he's after is £29 odd from a Nissan dealership. Link: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Genuine-Nissan-350Z-Z33-Fuel-Filler-Cap-1725179980-/301567739126?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item4636d684f6 There was a cheaper one but it was missing the strap.
  9. You could try zmanalex for the first two bits. If you've no luck with him then try Clark Motorsport and failing that I'd go to a Nissan dealership. Fyi ~ I got one from the dealership ages ago & it was around £28 for a new fuel cap which includes the little cable part.
  10. Tbf though Brad didn't it take you so long because you had to do it on a cold garage floor with just a hammer, spanner & some wood chocks. I bet you could have done it much quicker if you'd have had a fully kitted out workshop with a proper garage lift.
  11. Haha, well remembered! Some of it has gone on holidays and on the M3, but I've still got about half left. I've never really had this much money 'going spare' before - in the past it has always been for house deposits, etc... but now I've got a decent house, two fast cars, etc... I don't know what to do with it?! Having good money in the bank is very reassuring, but I can't stop myself looking at E90 M3s, M5s, Caymans, 911s, Range Rovers, XKRs, etc... Keeping the cash seems the sensible thing to do, but I'm not sure it's the right thing to do, hence the question about what everybody else does... Spend or save?! My Dad's an ex-bank manager so I've always saved for the things I want. Not so easy to do when you don't earn a lot but still it does work. In saying that though I have always thought along the same lines of sipar69 ~ life's too short not to enjoy things. Sure it's nice to have thousands in the bank but if the worst happens & you die tomorrow then what's the point of it all. Personally if I had children then some of the money I've saved would be in a high interest account for them just in case something ever happened to me so at least I'd know they'd have a good start in life. If you've no children Commander then I'd just enjoy the money you & your Mrs have together making sure there is always enough to pay the bills of course with a few thousand as a cushion.
  12. I guess you have to let him off though as at least it is a 350Z still. Much worse Auto's to own.
  13. Hi Trig, some great progress but just wondering why you wanted the exhaust manifolds to face forward? Are you having the exhaust pipes exiting at the front then or am I missing something?
  14. It was for all of 30secs oh the thrills us petrolheads get eh! Yeah he's done a fair bit of work to his ep3. But he's looking to sell and get a dc5 next 30 seconds of fun is better than none. I've always liked the DC5, ...I think shape wise it's the Integra I'd prefer.
  15. Some good plans and I love the look of the Zed without the rear spoiler.
  16. Don't tell me you've blown through all that Lotto money you won already Commander.
  17. Very nice pictures and both Zeds look great.
  18. Very nice Zed indeed.
  19. Yes I think it does. When I dropped off the spotted card I also noticed it was an auto.
  20. Very interesting read. I'd actually quite like to own or at least drive a proper electric car one day but it would have to be something along the lines of the BMW i8 or Tesla for me.
  21. Sounds good and looked like fun. Like the dials in your mates EP3 too.
  22. I was going to say that and it need's spacers. Both need spacers but girlfriends are expensive This is true, ...but they do have their good uses.
