    Genuine question lads, does coming to Northern Ireland for a car really put mainlanders off? I've have 3 or 4 people very interested until the point they realise the car is over here. 

    I've been over several times for cars in England, Scotland and Wales and I don't think people here would think twice about doing it. Nothing apart from a quick flight and ferry home doesn't sort. Obviously the homework needs to be a little more rigorous than usual but it hasn't been a problem in the past

     

    I would say yes it does unfortunately. 

     

    I think such a nice Z like yours would have gone a long time ago if on the mainland. 

  2. I have the 19' 370Z wheels on my 350Z and genuinely noticed little/no difference in terms of ride quality.  And they look lovely.

     

    One word of warning, when I put mine on the car looked a little too high, so I lowered it on Tein springs after.  Now looks perfect.

  3. No doubt it takes some getting used to. Few days and you are off. Give it a chance folks. 

     

    If this was the original forum when launched there would be very few complaints from people. It's that word "change" that takes some adjustment. 

     

    To anyone involved in the forum and site development, hat off to you all for the time and effort.  I for one applaud you.  :teeth:

  4. If the garage messed it up get them to replace the tyres.  I had this with a set of New Toyo's on the Alfa few years ago where they messed it up, I pushed them to replace the uneven worn tyres.  They were not happy but I was rather persistent and I got a new set from them.

     

    If its not your fault get the garage to stump up.

  5. It's not always because of traction control being off that means this would have been any better. 

     

    On way to Coventry meet with other Z's I lost the back end after coming off a roundabout, it was wet but was not even giving it much throttle. Had to correct it 3 times and luckily managed to keep it on the road (just) and no car next to me. Traction control was on. 10% skill & 90% luck. 

     

    For sure there was oil/diesel on the road which made it happen, so just saying it can be a multitude of factors that can result in such an event. 

     

    Main thing is you are okay and it seems car is repairable from what others have said. 

     

    Good luck.
