  1. @Zeus . Like that Go-Pro set up Mattross1313. Think I might have to invest in a Go-Pro at some point. Last time I tried video like that I cable tied my Sony Digital camera to the front grill of my old Subaru. Worked ok really but still not as good as the Go-Pro.
  2. Good to see you decided to say a proper hello. Welcome aboard and will be interested to see what you do to your new Zed being in the US with different tuners/parts available to you.
  3. I never realized how close you where to me here in S Wales Jez. Will definitely be in touch for some work doing this year.
  4. That's some good bit's of kit there.
  5. If you take it to Nissan you will pay a fortune and they won't be any better than a good independent garage so for starters I'd find a good independent garage to take your Zed too. You will save hundreds. Has your Zed had it's spark plugs changed at all do you know? This should be done I believe around the 54K miles mark or every 5 years whichever comes soonest. Also the coolant should be changed every 3 years and brake fluid every 2 years I think so probably wise to get that done as well. Your Zed doesn't appear to have been driven regularly (as the mileage is low) so I assume a previous owner was just being extra careful by giving it a major service more regularly which is a good thing imo.

  6. ^^ There's more but the Police took them away from me.
  7. Tell me about it. I'm just glad it's not snowing though tbh.
  8. I got it originally for taking motorsport pictures but then realized it's true manufacturers intended use.
  9. ^^ No idea which is better. My mate has used snow chains for years when he's been abroad skiing and he doubts that anything other than snow chains would be any good in the Alps. I think snow socks are more for lighter conditions & to get you out of trouble rather than continuous usage. Found this quote online from someone who has used both if this helps;
  10. Minolta syntax 510 was my first SLA 35mm still have it great camera loved the pictures I got with it but got fed up with crap processing so agent digital. Good news for u if you do go digital you could go so y as they purchased Minolta and the lenses are the same fit so u can use old lenses I would love to go digital but I think for now I'll stick with the 35mm. Got Zeditus too bad to spend money on anything else. That's good to know though about the lenses ~ thanks. I've currently only got two: a macro lens 30-75mm I think it is and my "peeping tom" 300mm lens.
  11. Team Minolta anyone? Also old school 35mm SLR btw, ...hence my lack of pictures online.
  12. Snow socks are fairly cheap so probably a wise idea to pack some in the car just in case.
  13. Don't really like it on the 350Z but it doesn't look as bad on the 370Z imo.
  14. Didn't know that! Useful Glad it helped HAMLNJ. Have a read through this for more info; http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/63942-mot-road-brake-test/
  15. It's an MOT so can't imagine there any different from anywhere else tbh. Good price for sure. I just use my local independent garage though as I trust him. NB: One thing to check at any garage you take the Zed to for an MOT ~ make sure they do not put the Zed on rollers to check the brakes as this can damage the diff. Needs a decelerometer to test it safely.
  16. Can be put to better use now.
  17. I think Floydbax meant will they fit a DE engine that has a plenum spacer? Or will the new strut need spacers to lift it up. That's just how I read it Chris.
  18. From what I've read I believe the 350Z does have a good intake tube anyway. In the USA the Stillen induction kit actually comes with a Z style pipe for the G35 owners etc to aid better air flow. http://www.stillen.com/product/intake-kits/ztube-intake-kit---cold-air-intake-wztube-kit-0308-fx35-8707.html?osCsid=51r6fbtppfelvvqgjnhesok613 You could buy the carbon fibre one or even the Berks intake suction tube ( http://www.tarmacsportz.co.uk/GB/Berk_Technology_350Z_03-06_Intake_Suction_Tube/BT1403_.aspx ) but I doubt your going to see a bhp increase if that's what your hoping for or some huge noise increase either. The only one that might make it sound any different would be the Berks metal one but even then I doubt it will be that different. All imo.
  19. Zed look's nice btw from what I can see.
