  1. Let's hope he's not going to have to sleep on the sofa tonight.
  2. Just did it for the Lol's. Some strange people in this world that's all I'll say.
  3. Lowering springs ~ Eibach or Teins (haven't tried either but plan on getting the Teins one day for a small drop 14/17mm) I thought of spacers but in the end new alloys sorted that problem for me and my Zed looks so much better for them imo. RDX aerial seems to be the favourite amongst the majority ~ personally I have an even smaller version (was on the Zed when I got it) Must do mod imo would be changing the exhaust system and standard CAT's ~ improved my overall Zed driving experience imo. If you're after a pretty stock looking exhaust that is a true dual set up then I'd definitely get an Invidia Gemini exhaust system with stainless steel rolled tips. Sounds great, no drone and is superb quality. Available from several traders on here but I got mine from Tarmac Sportz. Keep an eye out for "group buys" for price reductions.
  4. Sh*t happens just ignore him. Had similar situations myself in the past, mainly when I was in my late 20's and I used to drive a JDM Impreza with a straight through 3" exhaust system. Had one guy walking with his Mrs jump out in front of my car as I accelerated up a hill in second gear. "Slow down" he shouted, so I stopped as he was partially in the road as well. Getting half out of the car (bit annoyed now as well) I shouted back "what's your problem?!" "Speed limits 30!" he yelled, to which I replied "good to know, I was only doing 25 you pr*ck" We then parted ways and that was that. I know I probably could have handled it, shall we say more politely but tbh he wasn't the first person to yell or give me a horrid look whilst driving that car whilst still under the speed limits & in safe situations. Felt a bit victimized.
  5. Good idea Mudman ~ if I started listing all the potholes in and around Cardiff though I'd be here all night typing. Ely, Cardiff - Speed bumps flippin' everywhere!! misguided attempt to slow the joy riders down from back in the day but just seems to slow the Police chasing them & give's the criminals something to jump over. Fairwater, Cardiff - Speed bumps again. Near newly developed area by "The Fairwater" pub. Anything over 20mph will rip off your sump even in an un-lowered Zed. Pentyrch, Cardiff - Small "ish" village so no idea what idiot decided that speed bump's EVERYWHERE was necessary. Think that'll do for now.
  6. Any pics? Wish I had been for a nice drive today instead of working, ...boooo.
  7. Nice and I quite like the clear pipes.
  8. The video is from djtimo's speed run at TOTB. Link to his thread; http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/84366-my-little-weekend-project/page__st__120
  9. Second hand bargain then was it? Just found this for you if it helps? not sure if it's the same model or applicable but the thought was there. http://www.racelogic.co.uk/_downloads/traction/Digital_Adjuster_User_Manual.pdf
  10. Very cool ~ so from the looks of it you can adjust it for weather condition and the percentage it kicks in is it?
  11. ^^ I guessed it might have been a typo. Still it did take him fookin' ages to get them on.
  12. All Zeds are special. Look's good and welcome.
  13. Where exactly is it leaking? If it's coming from a small hole on the chassis member on the passenger side then don't worry about that as it is just from the A/C most likely ~ look's like the car has a little wee and worried me at first till I discovered on here what had caused it.
  14. Go easy on grundy Dunks, ....didn't take him that long to get those wheels fitted.
  15. Enjoy the new motor Rich ~ hopefully the Zed will end up in good hands.
  16. No, just off the M27 near Paultons Park https://www.google.c...b5c61887106885f Never realized it was so close.
  17. +1. Can be bought from traders on here like CS above or Tarmac Sportz ~ my two recommendations. http://www.tarmacsportz.co.uk/products.aspx?CategoryId=32850911-9f8a-43e4-a5fc-24678e254d1d Welcome aboard.

    350Z drag car

    Nah I think it's just a standard DE engine with Pop charger, new exhaust and some of those extra bhp chips from eBay.
  19. That's such a crock of sh*t. Always makes me laugh when I hear them say that. Good luck to you both btw.
  20. 8J and 8.5J are the standard rim sizes for Rays alloys ~ the Rays alloys tend to sit a little inward on the Zed so a lot of people buy spacers to make them sit outwards to make them fill the arch gap more.
  21. Says it stinks of fuel as well though Chris, ...could it be leaking some fuel somewhere?
  22. Very nice. Just fyi ~ all that oily/gunk looking stuff on your suspension towers can easily (with some elbow grease) be removed using some Carb cleaner. Just spray a little on a rag and gentle wipe it off. That's what I did on my 350 anyway & worked a treat. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/WYNNS-AIR-INTAKE-AND-CARBURETTOR-CARB-CLEANER-AEROSOL-CAN-PETROL-ENGINE-CLEANS-/390802146845?pt=UK_Vehicle_Oils_Lubricants_Fluids&hash=item5afd9f861d
