  5. Hello and welcome I think the buyer's guides covers everything. Good luck for tomorrow!!
  6. Here's something you can try yourself: 1.) Locate a good location or somewhere dark if you just want to practice (remember to be safe) 2.) Tripod is a must unless you have super steady hands that can hold your camera at the same position for over 20-25 seconds. 3.) Camera settings - 'M' mode, shutter speed of at least 10-15 seconds, aperture of F16 and above, any white balance. 4.) Compose your shoot, start off with 15 seconds, F16, ISO 200. Take a pic 5.) Check the picture, make sure background is bright enough with this setting. Don't worry if your car is not bright at this stage. If too dark, change to 20 seconds and decrease speed if needed. Once you are happy with the background, move to next step. 6.) Using same setting, once you press the shutter, start pointing your torch on your zed. Move as fast/slow as you want, as long as you cover the light all over your zed. Best if find is to avoid lighting the ground, mainly just on your zed. 7.) Once done, you should get a good pic. For star effect, up your aperture to max F24 but you will need to max your shutter speed to 30 seconds. If you zed is still not bright enough, you might need to use a brighter torch or you'll need to up your ISO to maybe 400 or 500. But doing that, you might find your background too bright hence might want to increase shutter speed to 25 or 20 seconds. Play around with these parameters and experiment as you go. For them 'tron' lines, all you need to do is just walk around your zed, point the torch towards your camera and paint away. If your shutter speed is 20 seconds, you basically have 20 seconds to paint =) Thank you! Definitely going to give this a go and I'll let you know how it goes =) Give it a try and share your pics..........will be happy to help

  8. Make sure the V5 is present during transection (bank transfer or cash) and you have the V5 slip filled in for you to take away. I paid for my zed using Bank Transfer (with my laptop at his house using his WIFI), make sure i have the V5 slip too before I drive off.
  9. Hello and welcome
  10. Here you go --> http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/57807-clicking-axle-noise-solved-try-this-first/
  11. Would be good if we can get a 350zUK specific code but you can use other codes for 5% off - DW05 I usually google "yyyyy yyyyy promo code" before I make any online purchases. Most of them works Edit: You won't get points if you are using discount code! I would prefer 5% off as I won't be purchasing often to benefit from points.
  12. You'll need buster's mod --> http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/84472-busters-mod-without-hacking-the-head-unit-harness/ http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/58947-reduced-sound-out-put-after-replacing-oe-bose/
  13. I'm assuming track car will have straps/harness rather than normal seat belts hence you will not move forwards as much or minimum movement during accident/crash that your face will hit the steering wheel or windscreen. Hence steering wheel airbag is not mandatory.....That's my logic IMO Edit: OP, maybe this is a good excuse to install 5 point harness?? and keep your aftermarket steering wheel But check that with your MOT station first
  14. Hello and welcome
  15. Oh dear!! Not great mate.....but most importantly you are OK. As all said, car can be replaced.
  16. Cheers for this, will visit to see what I can buy........ Again!
  17. Glad it's a free fix for you!
  18. Nice one Andy! Glad my pics has inspired you to go out there and experiment more. You'll be a pro soon
  19. Try those suggestions above, brake light switch and fluid level (topped up to max). I had same issue previously, as soon as I touch the brake pedal, the lights came up. Unfortunately for me, it was an issue with my ABS actuator unit which needs replacing. If you still have issue after checking, you might want to get ur car checked with a proper code reader. Bluetooth code reader only gives you engine codes, not electronic codes. Report back and fellow forum members can help.
  20. Thanks Stu. I think the best pic of the night for me was on Andy's sunset. Stars shape are dependent of you lens's aperture arrangement (number of blades)
  21. I bet 50% of them are accidental? "touch screen too sensitive"
