Top of the Class, Yes The Maki..Worst F1 car ever... Driven by my best mate Tony Trimmer, who tried to qualify it a number of time but always something broke..even the suspension collapsed on it before it got out of the pits once, then it was driven by American Howden Ganley who is in the pic. Unfortunately Howden had a massive accident in it (again something broke) which ended his career, but he's brave enough to drive it this weekend...if it makes it up the hill without something breaking... Good Luck Howden Fingers crossed for him Will. Still I think the Maki looks good, if only it drove well and was reliable.

Welcome aboard Danny. You've made a good start as joining here will definitely help you get some great information & tips. Also plenty of Zeds for sale on here; http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/51-zeds-for-sale/

^^ "Almost"

Never use Nissan Main Dealers. A good independent garage is usually always better and a darn sight cheaper.

^^ Maki F101.

Welcome to Zed ownership. Just wait till the first time you have to park it in a Supermarket car park!

^^ Sounds good. Such a shame sometimes on F1 when the real fans don't get anywhere near the cars and yet some B list celeb is walking round like they own the place when really they're only there to boost their profile a bit & get some TV air time.

Pmsl. Guess that's good news. Makes me think of the other week when I was driving home from work and I suddenly started hearing this terrible thump/knock noise whilst stopped at traffic lights. Drove off and the noise was still there, ..in fact it was there the entire journey home, ...that is until the car behind which was actually making the terrible noise turned off. I was so relieved.

Ooohh. That does explain it though. Never really been into watching Nascar even though the cars are pretty cool. Thanks for letting me know.

Had a look on google. The steering wheel below on a Zed is very similar to the Momo Jet; Here's a Momo Jet on my old JDM Impreza below; Best steering wheel I have ever held in my hands imo. Sure it will be great on the Zed and look fantastic.

Who's the King Will? sorry not quite sure who that is.

Best colour. Look's good.

Wish I had a 370 and then maybe I could help you more. Hopefully it won't happen again or if it does some of the more insightful 370 owners might pop in to help.

Have you checked all the doors and windows are shut properly? Just a thought.

Looks good and a definite improvement.

Great read.

Good info for the Skyline owners ~ maybe link the dealers site or address in case anyone else wants one.

+1.

Get some pictures up when you can after you've picked it up assuming all goes well & the EML is off.

Liked the 3rd video StevoD with the Ring & hill climb on it ~ music was much better on that one too.

I think it looks a bit of a mess tbh without the cover. Even if it was polished up with the Rare JDM cover I still think it looks a bit untidy. Have you thought about changing the cover? May be a carbon fibre one like the great one's Tarmac Sportz do; http://www.tarmacsportz.co.uk/GB/350z_Tarmac_Sportz_CF_Engine_Cover/350TSCFEC_.aspx Or possibly Hydro dipping your existing cover?

Welcome aboard. The EML could be on for a host of reasons. Not sure myself though whether a flat battery would cause it?! maybe someone else will know. All I'd say is that if the light is on when you pick it up then don't except it, get them to read the code to see what it tells you that's wrong and make sure you have some sort of warranty so that if the light comes on again you can get it sorted at their cost. Lot's of info in here; http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/35-guides/ It could throw up an old code (if it's not been cleared) that may be no longer a problem. You can do an ECU reset that will clear all codes. Info here; http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/53148-how-to-ecu-accelerator-pedal-throttle-valve-resets/

^^ Sorry got my images confused somehow. Meant to post this; They look the same don't they.

Wouldn't put your telephone number up on here if I was you. Best bet is to send Lee a PM (Private message) ~ just hover your cursor over his user name and you will see a "send message" icon pop up. You'll get a better response from that as well because it will also email him.
