  1. ^^That better not be an "easy jet" grundy.
  2. Perfectly safe to drive & won't wreck anything. Just check firstly that's the exhaust system is secure. I had an old exhaust that was so corroded once that the entire pipe sheered off so wasn't really safe to drive with as the entire back box was just hanging on via one rubber support mount. That wasn't safe as the back box could have fallen off onto the road. I don't think yours is that bad though otherwise the sound you had recorded would have been much louder & you would have easily been able to tell where it was blowing from.
  3. PS3 get's my vote too. Still making great games for them plus you can get bargain secondhand games.
  4. Same here zedd, ....just rain & wind. Very miserable weather. Thank goodness I don't have to go out anywhere for now.
  5. One thing that may have caused this change in sound Randy is something I experienced several times on my old Civic Type R with it's stainless steel exhaust system when it was hot and rapidly cooled by going through water. On my Civic it would noticeably change the exhaust note as well as make it rattle in places. I believe this is caused as stainless steel gets hotter quicker than mild steel (standard system material) and when rapidly cooled by going through large puddles the exhaust would slightly blow through some of the joints when it was rapidly cooled due to the water. You'd know if this is the case as when you next go to drive the car after it has cooled & resettled it will sound fine again. If it doesn't then I would say the exhaust is blowing from somewhere.
  6. I did get a few car related gifts which where; new bucket, Megs Gold Class shampoo, genuine sheep's wool mitt, Skunk2 oil cap, oh and some de-icer.
  7. I've always liked the look of this front lip.... Available from Tarmac Sportz for a reasonable £135 odd. Link: http://www.tarmacsportz.co.uk/GB/350z_2003-2005_GT_STYLE_POLYURETHANE_FRONT_LIP/2-PU-53503GT_.aspx All personal taste though as Dan said.
  8. Really? Going to check that out now.
  9. Costs vary and it depends what model Zed you have. Also some traders will do you the parts at a cheaper rate if bought all together as a package deal so to speak. I bought the vast majority of my parts from Chris at Tarmac Sportz who I'd highly recommend but there is also another trader that can supply FI parts which is Torqen who have just started business.

  10. My mothers not here to ask but pretty sure microwave is actually "microdon" in Welsh. Although my spelling of it might not be correct that's how it's pronounced I'm sure.
  11. I was looking at that Mini Cooper on the Lego website the other day, ...look's superb. Have fun with those Veeg.
  12. Happy Christmas Jc. Yet to open one present so we'll see.
  13. Happy Christmas all.
  14. First bit means; "Happy Christmas" and the second part either means "and a Happy New Year", ...or ioneabee's pi**ed already & fallen asleep on the keyboard. It's Welsh so it could quite reasonably be either.
  15. Finally. Happy Christmas Dan.
  16. Merry Christmas from South Wales.
  17. So lucky though that firstly the van didn't run over him when he tried to get back in but also lucky that it didn't hit the house.
  18. If it's clicky rear axles then this might help. Link: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/15151-how-to-clicky-axle-repair/
  19. Ahh I see, good info Mitz. Just read the advert and that was the eBay sellers mistake as well. Doh.
  20. Good spot Mike and Happy Christmas btw. Edit: See Mitz post below for why.
  21. Very nice Josh. Money well spent indeed.
  22. If you see things like this Mike you can always put an eBay link to it and post it here; http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/40-spotted-on-ebay-or-other/
  23. The options were: a) move the garage door & frame forward 80mm cut a few holes in a bit of plasterboard :lol: Merry Christmas everyone Need's must, ...at least you got it to fit in the end. Happy Christmas Darren.
