  1. The wolf. Would much rather have a "sleeper car" than a car that shouts "look at me aren't I sporty" but then is as slow as a golf cart.
  2. Did it finally stop raining mate? It did indeed. Just drove my Mrs nuts though as I couldn't decide on a picture I liked the best. If I don't get in the calendar I'm blaming her.
  3. Either: (A) You are pulling our leg. Or (B)You passed out at the sight of the needle & dreamt the hand up skirt bit. Or C)You are one lucky SOB! I'm going with C) and hoping that trick will work out for me if I ever need an injection again. Although knowing my luck it will be a male nurse.
  4. Very nice and that number plate's probably worth a bit, ..."GT Z" Very cool.
  5. Brilliant cause I'm sure that'll work out cheap on insurance. Just get him a safe reliable car like a Honda or something. Good luck with that.
  6. Welcome aboard Jake. Doesn't look too bad for the price & miles. Re: Insurance: Best bet is to try "Go-Compare" and some of the insurance traders on here. I'd recommend you give Dan at Adrian Flux a PM or call to see what they can do for you. Good luck.
  7. Like the free purse you got, ...that's your Mrs Christmas gift sorted then.
  8. Lovely tail pipes on the Cobra system.
  9. That'll be why then. If I'm not working then I tend to try to have a sleep in.
  10. Look's great. I can never find an empty car park here, ...probably for the best though as I might try something stupid if I did.
  11. Very nice looking Porsche. Enjoy it Sarnie.
  12. Pretty sure I've seen that one. Was there a Ferrari spotted first and then the Zed owner decided to put his foot down to show them what a real car can do?
  13. 25% Increase in my premium. Pretty happy with that and of course hoping to get the price down for next year. I'm with Adrian Flux insurance currently who I'd highly recommend as their service so far has been great. Mrs GM; "What the **** are you doing, Graham?!?" GM; "It's 'research' dear... no, honestly!" That was pretty much spot on, ....I just said it was for the forum, she just replied; "Oh".
  14. Sounds like it might just be a throttle controller. Some people on here have used these before & do rate them. I don't have any experience of them but here's a link to the type of thing I'm on about: http://www.h-dev.co.uk/product_info.php?manufacturers_id=49&products_id=25492 Hope that helps. P.S. Maybe do a search or ask others opinions/views on the throttle controllers & any improvements before you buy one though. Would be a shame to waste £100 odd for not much or no improvement.
  15. My fuel gauge is messed up but it was before so nothing to do with the supercharger install ~ common problem on the 350. Either my fuel senders need a good clean (most likely) or there is something wrong with them/one of them. Make's no difference to me though as I keep track of the miles I cover & generally fill up once a week anyway so never go much below half a tank anyway. @ChrisB ~ That's pretty good MPG you're getting then but don't forget to enjoy some WOT though every so often. Although we really need some nice weather first I know, ...not to mention our own private race tracks.
  16. Did you work out that MPG using distance covered/fuel used or are you relying on the Zed's MPG computer still? If it's the latter then ignore that as it will be fubar after the new fuel injectors you've fitted. The Nissan MPG computer I believe works using fuel injector cycle so changing the injectors kind of f**ks it up. Sorry if I burst your bubble. The weather is a nuisance at the moment as definitely not a lot of chance for nice driving conditions. Just can't wait for the warmer months next year now & some shows or meets to enjoy.
  17. Any info or links? If it's one of those "plug in 25bhp gain boxes" from eBay then forget it as it's a load of bo**ocks.
  18. You should have seen my Mrs face when I was getting that image from google. How's your Zed running? Happy days I hope.
  19. I buy all my E-liquids from a local shop here in Cardiff. I like supporting local businesses when I can & they've offered me great service from the moment I walked through the door so always go back, ..plus their prices seem reasonable & they have a loyalty card system so I get free coils/E-liquids every 5-10 purchases. Link: http://www.zappecigs.co.uk/ Currently I'm vaping the "Eshisha" E-liquids which are some of the strongest tasting I have ever tasted with a great amount of smoke/vape off them. This range: http://www.zappecigs.co.uk/#!eshish/crgc Plenty of other great brands on their website & mail order available too if you spot any you fancy.
  20. Believe me Andy I'd love nothing more than to keep going with bought this, fitted this etc but my bank balance just won't let me. The weathers cr*p here at the moment & it's my last chance this weekend to get some pictures taken for the calendar. Still going to try to get a decent shot though to enter the competition with and then I'll probably post up some of the one's I didn't think where good enough. Nothing exciting going on now though sorry. Get better soon. Here's a "nurse" to cheer you up.
  21. Welcome aboard. Can't hear mine over the exhaust so doesn't bother me.
  22. Great news and love the new signature.
  23. Glad you enjoyed reading it mate. It's a difficult decision to make especially due to the costs involved. Personally I feel like I've ticked something off my bucket list now as I'd always wanted to supercharge a car as well as drive one with a supercharger. Imo this has totally changed the car for the better and was worth every penny doing ~ even knowing that I'll never get back what I've spent on it but it's been so much fun doing it and am enjoying the drive so much more than I did which is why most of us mod our cars in the first place (to improve the drive). I doubt I'm going to keep the Zed forever but I do plan on keeping it for a fair bit longer, ...more importantly I want to enjoy it by visiting some shows/meets and hopefully a track day or drag strip day occasionally.
