  1. That sounds fantastic. And British too!
  2. Afternoon. a couple of years ago I would bounce between Admiral and Adrian Flux year on year as the quoted figures always rotated. My partner contacted you today and attempted to get insurance on the three cars we have (One being a 350z) She was told in no uncertain terms that as I had no previous experience of a car with the engine size of a 350z I was classed as an inexperienced driver and as such it would force my policy up. Just to state, This made the final figure £1400 which is £600 more expensive than Admiral. My partner explained that I'd always driven performance hot hatches in excess of 250hp, however was told because I'd been driving a Diesel as my main car for the last year I was inexperienced... Is there any truth in this?
  3. I'd like dibs on the wing. I'm a tad unsure how this will look on an Azure as I've not see it on one yet.
  4. Now I'm even more interested. Link if you can!
  5. You'd lose power, it'd look snazzy but you'd have the slowest zed out there.
  6. How much did the front end respray cost? If it's less than 1k I think I'd rather have the respray every 5 years... Although I don't have ocd!
  7. I found my traction control... A little dangerous. When driving safe I entered a particularly wet roundabout. I went to accelerate gently out of it and the back came loose. Traction control kicked in but threw the car off balance so all four wheels lost traction. Thankfully no one was around but since then I've turned it off. No only is it more fun but I find it more predictable. Just FYI this too is my first experience of rwd. It's manageable and predictable
  8. I have an 06 revup and for the looks and nasp tuning alone I'd go 313.
  9. Would you take PayPal? I have access to that I can give you 250 Inc postage if you are interested right now. Edit : sorry to prevent confusion what I mean is 250 total including postage to my door. I have the money sat in my PayPal from parts I've just sold.
  10. I'm in tenerife at the moment otherwise and don't have access to my bank otherwise I'd buy these now. Been saving for the berk / ark combo so the money is there
  11. I think Ricky might be right, I think its more than likely something loose, probably exhaust wise. I found out my odd low rev sound was one of the exhaust hangers. My garage fixed it for me and didn't charge me
  12. These been through an MOT with you yet? Did they pass first time?
  13. The one thing that really annoys me about my Zed is the gross headlining. Both my previous Cupras had Black headlining and its so much nicer.
  14. WoW... that looks fantastic. Would love to see this in the flesh.
  15. Hmmm nice, Really do want. I have an 06... Its a DE but Revup but its facelift I think... Arg I dont know!
  16. Always suprised people in my Leon Cupra R. Looked like a family 5 door and... Was but I would say that it was easily as fast as the zed in a straight line Then there was the time I tried to overtake a clapped out old saab. It had nasty horrible Fox alloy wheels was the squares looking car ever. Look liked it was ready for the scrap we both gave it full tilt from the lights and he disappeared. I'm going to guess it had 350+hp
  17. 9k or 1 year whichever comes first... Looks like its going to be 9k!
  18. Good job, It must have been infuriating to find however!
  19. Interesting. Good to keep in mind for the future and very informative
  20. I had a top three Skyline R34 Dodge Charger/Challenger (You know the one!) 350z I always thought all would be totally out of my reach. I'm so Happy with my Zed that I would sell organs just to keep it.
  21. I've been umming and Ah'ing about this for a while now Think I'm going to get the zed into a good place cosmetically first and then save for forced induction. I like the idea of Supercharging, from what I can see the power band is more linear Started scouring forums and ended up seeing Ians posts on the HKS setup on the my350z forums. I think you might be right Ian, I'll likely chase NA gains and be unsatisified I'll have to see how the next few months pan out.
  22. I've got a bit of a budget at the moment (Currently out in tenerife) so not sure how much the holiday will totally cost me. How much are you looking for that lower plenum. I've read that I should also get the upper spaced out to see good gains. I really cant contain this Zeditus
  23. To FI or not to FI Its expensive but it may be worth it, It'll likely take me atleast a year or longer to save for FI so we'll have to see how impatient I grow! Might just get a front end respray, fit the brakes and have her detailed for now, see how long that holds my Zeditus for!
  24. As with all of my cars I like to increase power from standard, Until now all of my cars have been turbo'd so with Exhaust, Intake and small hardware adjustments I would see HUGE gains from a remap. However the Zed is a very different animal and there are a number of versions, Now I'm a bit noobey so help me out there. I have the 2006, Single Intake, I think its the DE engine thats classed as Revup. I've been religiously checking the oil but it doesn't seem to be using any currently (maybe I'm lucky) Anyhow because Nissan sold my version for all of 12 months threads on modifying are not as common as Stock DE and HR threads so I was wondering. Has anyone Uprev'd a Revup? I mean stock they are supposed to be 297? Which is about as high as most tuners and modifiers are achieving with the basic mods on DE motors. I was looking to do the usual, Plenum spacer, Exhaust system, Intake and any various other items but I'm starting to wonder if because its 'Revup' already that maybe those items will make little to no difference and I should just save for FI (supercharger) and sit pretty until that time... Sorry if this has been asked before I did have a brief search
