  1. Cheers Matt. It's a typical Welsh thing. Everything around here is written in duplicate ~ firstly in English followed by the Welsh word for the same thing. Totally bonkers if you ask me partly because probably only 15% of the population in Wales actually speak Welsh fluently but also because lot's of the words are almost identical bar a few random letters thrown in for good measure that even a none speaker could guess the word just from the way it reads. Still it is Wales after all so I guess it's fair enough. My mother speaks Welsh fluently fyi but in school I struggled to pick it up & dropped it as soon as I could in favour of learning French. Au revoir.
  2. Definite scammer. There is a Porsche 911 on there for £8K odd which is the same picture from another seller listed at £23K odd.

  3. What about the Blitz spoiler like below? Love those. Quite like the duckbill type spoilers too. Some more to look at in this thread: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/59725-which-spoiler/
  4. I feel that it sits low enough on the front end with the standard set up I have but could do with a little lowering on the rear, ...but tbh I'll probably just leave it as it is now. Drives great and there are far too many speed bumps around here to be dealing with the hassle of scraping the under carriage all the time.
  5. Thanks. My rear tyres are 275/35/19's. Really love the way they look on the car from the back and they seem to be giving me great traction considering the added power I have now & adverse weather conditions currently.
  6. "Massaging seats, heated steering wheel". Sounds superb.
  7. Yeah but you can't really get more of a bargain than free can you?! Think I'll wait anyway as the PS4 have already come down in price a lot plus now it's out the secondhand PS3 games market is great. Seeing lot's of good games that I've never played going cheap.
  8. Once I had loaded them onto my laptop I then discovered that I could use a photo editor suite on my computer. Now it's nothing too exciting or advanced I know but decided to have a go at some of the pictures I'd taken. The results are below and tbh I'm very happy with how some of them have turned out. Definitely a lot more scope with digital photography than old school 35mm rolls, ...for starters I don't have to use a black & white film roll to get the same results. Love the way the sky came out in this one... Same as above but with a blue hint...
  9. As promised thought I'd post up some of the pictures I've taken this weekend & last in my efforts to take one for the calendar competition. Now I'm not a professional photographer, although I have been taking pictures from a young age at motor sports events but please don't expect them to be amazing although I do try. One of the most difficult things for me was finding a good location locally as well as coming to terms with an unfamiliar digital camera. My old camera was a 35mm SLR so just finding my feet with this digital malarkey. Hope you like them.
  10. Do you have aftermarket Cat's? E.g. HFC's (High Flow Cats) or De-Cats. The reason I ask about the Cats is because the EML can be easily set off from changing to the above as it upsets the secondary set of O2 sensors. To truly know what it is you need to get the code read though. You can have this done at a garage or do it yourself easily enough at home using a OBDII code reader, The code reader can be bought cheaply on eBay & also can be used to turn off the EML once you have read the code.
  11. See this is what I had heard. I don't do a lot of online gaming anymore but do occasionally like the odd game of COD still so paying a yearly subscription just to play a few hours here & there seems a bit frustrating. Still free on the PS3 so think I'll stick with it for now.
  12. Pictures look fine to me Ryan (on my Laptop). Bulbs are usual one of the easiest & first things to mod. I know I did it not that long into my Zed ownership. You might also want to replace the number plate light bulbs & sidelight bulbs, both 501 capless types so LED's can be used again for a more modern look. Also if you are doing the front indicator bulbs you could always do the rears too for the complete set.
  13. ^^ Would make watching the F1 a lot more interesting for sure.
  14. Would agree with that, ..in fact if that's start/stop traffic the whole way it's a pretty good MPG for town driving. I used to get around 17-19MPG at times in the worst of the stop/start traffic.
  15. No wonder you're asking about that, ...does sound pretty awesome for £8K odd. Pretty sure it won't be a simple plug & play job though. Hopefully some other more knowledgeable members regarding engine swaps will pop in.
  16. Probably some sort of car lift involved maybe. Nah, sounds too simple, much cooler to have them dropped off by helichopter. As shown by the Red Bull F1 team in Australia this year. Link: http://richardsf1.com/2014/02/03/2014-australian-gp-launched-in-style/
  17. Hhhmm I'd guess it will take a lot of money. You can get a Brian Crower stroker kit for the VQ35DE which can increase the capacity to 4.15L. Add different cams etc for more performance and I'd imagine that would be a cheaper option than a race spec VK45DE. Not sure how that would compare to the above though power wise.
  18. Probably some sort of car lift involved maybe.
  19. Nasty. Think you chose the right option then. So can you punch through solid walls now right? Any options for installing motorized servos?
  20. Pretty cool but I'd prefer this... Could keep a proper eye on the cars then.
  21. ^^ Where is that plate & screws then Andy? Hand? sorry I'm no physician so can't quite tell. Look's like it would be painful wherever it is.
  22. Currently playing "The Walking Dead: Survival Instinct". A game based loosely around the TV series. I'm really enjoying it even though the graphics aren't the best. It's just a good old FPS game really. Question for the PS4 owners ~ do you have to pay to play online games? Just wondering as that's one of the main reasons why I have stayed with the PS3 (for the free online gaming) but would love to get a PS4 in the future providing the online side of things is still free. Thanks to anyone who can answer that.
  23. Both of those are funnier than any joke I've ever had in a cracker. Oh & the £50 gag, ...his face must have been a picture Dave. Brilliant.
  24. i'm walking funny just thinking about the twisted testical Yeah that was not fun. Although how it happened in the first place was.
  25. Sorry I don't know of any "best Christmas cracker jokes" as they're all rubbish.
