  1. I think the result comes through at 2am and confirmation at 5am?
  2. Sold!! Don't think the owner is on the forum and doubt he'll register. Sad to see the zed go, may even return to a 370z one day but for now I'm stuck with the bmw.
  3. Just updated some of the pictures in the main post

    MPSS

    I'm no tyre expert and just wanted to see what other people have to say about this. I am potentially looking at getting MPSS all round on my 350z and have come across ones for the rear at a cheaper price. About £105 for 1x 245/45/18 although the seller has said its been in stock for a while, never used and been kept in dry storage. If it's been kept in storage and never used, would the tyre deteriorate or deteriorate at a quicker rate when they are eventually on the car?
  5. Not sure about elsewhere but locally to me, when filling up with petrol there's always signs on every pump to say that bikers must take their helmets off. Now personally I don't have an issue with this as I did it anyway when I was on my bike but a few other bikers I know get rather passionate about this and question, why do they need to take their helmet off when people with burkas can fill up and not get questioned? After all, they believe it's discrimination against bikers when people can simply put a burka on and not be questioned at all. Just wanted to see what other people think about this.
  6. If the biker wasn't doing those speeds, he more than likely wouldn't have hit the car or at least would have had time to slow down and maneuver around the car turning in. Watching this video does make me think about how I drive and I'm sure this video will spread awareness for both car drivers and bikers. RIP to the biker.
  7. Looking good Will, makes me want to continue doing bits & pieces to mine despite selling it
  8. I bought black diamond front discs and pads, fitted them myself, bedded in, all seemed fine. After putting a fair few miles on them, I started experiencing juddering at 60-70mph and gradually got worse and worse. I took the zed to Sly at Kaizers, found that the build up of crud on the hub transferred to the disc and put the alignment out. Options were to get disc skimmers out or to replace it all. As I needed the car and couldn't really wait around, Sly cleaned the hubs and fitted new discs and pads, all ok ever since then. I have black diamond discs and pads on the rear as well, no issues with them.
  9. Everything you want, matches my car. I know we've been discussing it in a PM and I have literally just messaged you again but let me know if you're interested in coming down and we can negotiate a price etc.
  10. Spotted a nice looking 370z in the visitors car park at BSkyB today. Anyone from here?
  11. Very nice, makes me want to get one now lol
  12. Main post updated with interior pictures. It's a bit dirty as I have had my work gear in there but I will be getting it all cleaned out as I won't be using the car anymore. Now using my bmw as my daily. I also got the handbrake adjusted by Sly at Kaizer Motors today, it now holds even better than before.
  13. Hi Gordon, I'm available this weekend and I will get interior pictures taken tomorrow afternoon/early evening. Thanks, Tom
  14. Unfortunately due to a change in job roles I am needing a more practical economical car and therefore need to sell the 350z. I've thought long and hard about this however with my new job role needing me to travel a lot, it doesn't make sense to put the mileage on a car such as the 350z and spending a fortune on petrol. I have now bought myself a BMW 3 series for work. If I wasn't changing job roles, I would still be using it as I absolutely love driving this car & have plans as long as my arm that I would like to do to it. Details below: 53 plate Black 350z GT Registered 2004. MOT until January 2015 Taxed until 31/01/2015 Full service history 75k miles Car is standard other than the exhaust GT pack: Black leather electric heated seats Cruise control Climate control Bose sound system Steering wheel controls Bluetooth connectivity Brembo brakes Rays alloys Xenon headlights Recent work: Exedy Clutch and Lightweight flywheel fitted at 71k miles (Fitted by Kaizer Motors) Oil gauge sensor replaced (Fitted by Kaizer Motors) New air filter New battery New spark plugs Pagid front discs Brembo front brake pads Drive belts (Alternator & A/C belt) replaced Banana arm bushes replaced (Fitted by Kaizer Motors) Anti roll bar drop links replaced (Fitted by Kaizer Motors) Cobra resonated exhaust fitted (Fitted by Kaizer Motors) Black Diamond rear discs Black diamond rear pads Full wheel refurb (See before/after pictures) 23/07/14 Handbrake adjustment (Adjusted by Kaizer Motors 01/08/14) New shims on front brakes, no more squeaking when braking at slow speeds. Other Slight wear in gear stick Scratch on passenger interior door handle I have always filled up with Super Unleaded I believe the price is fairly reasonable considering the recent work carried out. Whoever gets it has peace of mind knowing it's been maintained very well. £6,500 ONO Car is available for viewings in Rochester (ME3) by appointment only. I'm about a 5 minute drive from Kaizer Motors just to give people an idea.
