  1. Still plenty of tread in the middle; I bet if you reset the camber you could get another couple of thousand miles on them....
  2. That looks excellent; for a relatively small thing it makes a huge difference! Perfectly matched to the windows too.
  3. Car looks great mate; I do love the rolled tip option.
  4. Seriously tempted to get myself one.... Which tips did you go for?
  5. I hadn't thought of that. In that case , maybe I'll also write "NOT A" above the logo....
  6. One of mine (with the Z logo) is worn quite badly too, with the silver paint coming off the buttons. I might just colour it in with a felt tip though; that'll class it up no end I'm sure....

    Goodyear Tyres

    Even so, it does kind of look like they've missed out a "1" at the front of the price doesn't it? (For what it's worth I've used GY F1s on a previous, albeit FWD, car and they were excellent.)

    esure

    I've been stung a couple of times by esure's admin fees. No wonder so many people commit insurance fraud! Good to know they will cover the exhaust when I finally take the plunge though.

    True dual exhaust

    I've been researching (i.e, drooling over) them for a while - they are definitely true dual.
  10. I had both Kumhos and Falkens on my Focus ST; the Falkens were decent enough, but the Kumhos were borderline dangerous in the wet, even at sensible speeds. Goodyear Eagle F1s were the best I found.
  11. I think maybe you should ask for a refund....

    Key slot

    Ok thx very much appreciate it... Strange as at night it's hard find find the hole! ������ But why do you need to? It's an intelligent key, if you're talking 370. My car sometimes gives me the no key warning when driving and I have an electric gate at work and it's easier if I know where the key is each time to operate it and not in my pocket etc... Another bit of a side note, but if your electric gate opener is on the car's key fob it could be interfering with the key signal, which might explain the "no key" warning.
  13. Hiya, Try this; worked for me. You have to pair it as an audio device (as opposed to a headset). www.youtube.com/watch?v=i73iGcZ9fBg (Sorry, can't get the hyperlink to work on this silly tablet.)
  14. Yeah, I was seriously disappointed for what I considered to be a relatively new car- very nearly put me off looking for another, but fortunately the next one I saw was mint. Hopefully it was just a one-off though and not a sign of things to come.
  15. The first one I test-drove (2010, 15k miles) was a complete dog; not sure if the problems it had are common but it suffered from: Very noticeable transmission whine Sluggish acceleration Prematurely worn interior (cracked leather on seats and gear knob) Centre console cubby-hole didn't shut properly Lots of stone chips on the big ol' nose Definitely seemed to have had a hard life! I think they're also quite susceptible to rusting underneath too.
  16. Sounds awesome through my speakers at any rate - lovely deep growl! I prefer the roll-tips, which only seem to come in 5" diameter. I did wonder if they'd look a bit too big, but I have to say your car wears them well! Also like the fact they don't stick out too much from the bumper, unlike some others I've seen.
  17. Can I detect a bit of a "hiss" on that video? Any chance that car also has their HFCs fitted? Sounds pretty good to me in any case. Couldn't agree more on the volume; I just want something that sounds a bit more like a sports car. At the moment I have all the alluring sound of a Ford Transit without the added benefit of practicality....
  18. ^^ Me too Would like to hear, or get people's opinions on, how loud this exhaust is compared to the usual CBE suspects.
  19. I'm guessing it's a fault on their database, rather than user input error; if I put my reg into their "Sell My Car" page, it comes up automatically as a 370 Z. Must be two possible categories for our cars for some (or possibly no) reason.
  20. Could be transmission whine; I test drove one that seemed to suffer from it before I bought mine, and I'm sure I read about it in a couple of reviews of the car. Does the tone change with engine speed, or if you dip the clutch?
  21. Re: GIXXERUK Cheers mate! If I ever get the car photo-ready (i.e. wash it) I'll take some pictures - never been my strong suit though....
  22. I'd been considering ordering the kit from the States, but it seems like way too much hassle. I'd certainly put my name down for one. Alex
