  1. Yeah forget Adrian Flux at the moment as I went to renew my car and they were almost £200 more than anywhere else. I'm going with the RAC this/next year as they gave a very competitive quote with low excesses & decent extras included like free legal cover/assistance. Have you tried looking on "Go Compare"? That's where I usually get my quotes from before anywhere else. Might be worth checking "Admiral" too as I hear they're pretty good.
  2. Would love to experience a ride in this Zed as I bet it's amazing. As for your brakes I'd honestly try to stretch your budget to a big brake kit if you can. I'd say with the power your car has honestly nothing else is really a sensible option. Sure Adrian@Torqen or one of the other traders on here could do you a good deal or maybe you could find some used from zmanalex? Maybe worth a PM. Link: http://www.torqen.uk/91-big-brake-kits
  3. Love the videos, ...seems to pull really hard which must feel amazing. Re: Brakes ~ Have you got a big brake kit then or not? I thought you did tbh but can't remember now. Have you tried Ferodo DS2500 pads?
  4. ^^ Not heard of that Gizmo. Just bought "The Last Of Us ~ Remastered" for my PS4. Excellent game so far and loving the detailed environments.
  5. Usually the way with newly fitted springs. Definitely looking a lot better than the first picture you posted so you should be very pleased.
  6. Sounds good & look forward to seeing the video when you can.
  7. Try zmanalex or Emperor Tuning on here as both deal in good quality used parts. zmanalex: http://www.350z-uk.com/user/9648-zmanalex/ Emperor Tuning: http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/232-emperor-tuning/ You could also try Keyser as he & the Zed shed were breaking a Zed so "may" have an exhaust system: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/108941-breaking-fire-damaged-53-plate-azure-350z/page__st__80#entry1667154 Good luck & welcome aboard Rob.
  8. Wow that's a pretty unique car to have owned here in the UK. I remember when I was signing on once in between jobs & I was driving a my96 JDM Subaru Impreza (pics a couple of pages back), ....pretty sure back then they all thought I was a drug dealer.
  9. Cheers for the info. Always good to get an ex-owners view. I've never owned a V8 or V10 and tbh I'd really love to see if I could get one or the other as my next car just to experience the sound really. Time will tell though, I've only had this car since May.
  10. Moved to the "Photos" area as is more fitting. Zeds looking great.
  11. ^^ Gosh you've had some quality cars Alpinaman. Have to ask you though how did you find the M5? Have any issues? I've always kind of wanted one of those and was actually looking at them before getting my current car (an S3). Really only want it because of the V10 engine. This is my current car, link: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/108109-new-car-time-again-my-new-german-whip/
  12. I love that picture of your Zed with the clouds/rain to the right & sunshine to the left, great picture. Cheers for sharing.
  13. I did wonder if you'd maybe had a Alpina BMW previously going from your username. We're all petrolheads (of some description) on here so all makes are usually of interest to most. If you've got any pictures of your old cars I'm sure I'm not alone in wanting to see them. Thread here if you fancy sharing: http://www.350z-uk.c...-car-pics-here/
  14. Sounds good then. Post some pictures next time you get a chance & enjoy your Zed.
  15. Welcome aboard. AFAIK the "GT Edition" should have the stripe "GT Edition" decals down the side (easily removable though), some suspension tweaks, darker chrome Rays, TPMS and I can't think but sure there is more over the standard 370's. Some info here: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/47746-370z-gt-edition-press-release/
  16. Yep really like the colour of that purple one & the styling is pretty nice too, ...just cannot believe he fitted a tow bar on it though.
  17. Welcome aboard Paul. Plenty of traders on here to help you with your mods when you get started.
  18. Hope you're right Matt as that will certainly make the job cheaper to fix & closer to what's been quoted to get it sorted. The reason I think it's dented slightly though is from the first picture where if you look at the line of the rear arch is doesn't look (to my eye anyway) like a nice sweeping curve anymore. Seems uneven.
  19. Those headlights certainly do look very cool and I'm a fan of his rear spoiler too. Nice video AMT.
  20. Why not just buy some cheap rubber sheet and then using a cardboard template cut it to fit the centre cubby. Link: http://www.ebay.co.u... sheet&_sacat=0 I removed my Bluetooth module in my old 350 as the cubby was much more useful for keeping my CD's in. I bought a case "similar" to the one below which fitted nicely. Link: http://www.ebay.co.u...wwAAOSwFc5XwYVK Just an idea.
  21. It is the rear wheel arch Ricey with a slight dent too by the looks of it as well as a little bit of bumper damage by the arch. Tbh I can't see a decent job being done for that sort of money unless he's getting it mates rates or something. Really hope though that they do a decent job for the Ops sake.
  22. £450 sounds cheap, ...hope it's a good repair & you're happy afterwards.
