  1. I'd echo what loggy747 said, I have the ark grip and while it does come to life when pushing on (and it does sound superb), at idle and cruising it's pretty quiet, in fact on flat motorway at 70 it's all road noise, I can't hear the exhaust.
  2. No excuse for parking like that (apart from maybe what husky said ). I'd have driven straight back out and sacked the gym off and used it as a sign it wasn't meant to be that night
  3. These look the business. Would one be available without painted inserts, if so do you have a pic of one?
  4. H1979

    HR indicators.

    Nope, only flash while holding or fully on. It annoys me a bit too as I got used to them on my last car and the wife's.
  5. Just remember that not all nice shiny cars are driven by nice people. Probably because they don't own the car either so don't care about swinging a door open. Amount of people I see thinking it's acceptable to rest there door against people's car's!!:o Sent from my E6653 using Tapatalk That really does my head in. I was sat in my car a while back (pre z) in the works car park and some twonk parked up and opened his door against mine while I was sat right there
  6. Really? Was is sheet ice or something? 25 is pretty slow for 3rd and gentle acceleration, you sure it was 2nd and flat to the floor
  7. Ah I see, misunderstood your post, apologies. That I have no idea about in afraid. Fingers crossed it was a one off.
  8. My doors and boot were frozen solid the other day, the handle would move ok, but the doors were rock solid. A few jugs of luke warm water round the whole window and door frame sorted it.
  9. Not a bad a shout, I have been looking at some cheap sheds on the bay and there are quite a few around the 500 mark, and it would give me a practical car too.
  10. Unfortunately I don't have a little run around so unless there's a good amount of snow put down the z gets used or I just work from home. You guys do know the loud pedal isn't binary right?
  11. I was following one on the m1, stayed well back out the way, still a few bits getting kicked up by other cars but no way I'd be getting up close and driving by. I could see a whole cloud of grit in the air behind the spreader :o. When I expect spreaders to be out and about I just keep my eyes peeled for the flashers and if I see one in the distance heading my way just dive down a side street - not too quickly obviously.
  12. That's bonkers for an oil and filter change even for a main dealer. Sure I only used to pay about 120 for the same thing from the vw stealers on my passat. Where you based? Sure there must be some good indy's your way. Assume your car's 9 years old? If so stamps make no difference, well looked after is what matters so any service stamp will do.
  13. I know you say you've checked the boot, but have you had a look under the carpet around the spare wheel and amp area? Hope you get it sorted soon mate.
  14. Hadn't noticed this was a 370, I'd have thought that should be covered under warranty. The fact that yours has gone in 12 months shows what a piece of cr@p that vent is. You're lucky you don't have water in your boot, mine practically flooded everytime I washed it.
  15. To get to the vent I took all my boot trim out, once you get to it it's a doddle to take out and replace. It may be a bit extreme taking it all out, it may be possible to reach under the trim. I think replacement is about £15 from Nissan.
  16. Recently had the ark grip and absolutely love it, nice and quiet on cruise but comes to life when giving it some, nice and deep sounding. Exactly how the car should sound imo. Little bit over your budget, but well worth it, and it looks the business.
  17. We (or I do) need pictures of this, tried getting my track bike in mine the other week, ended up with the frame on the front seat with the saddle in my face and wheels in the boot.
  18. I had the corolla tsport with the same engine, used to love taking that the 8200 redline with the punch at 6200.
  19. I wouldn't worry about being humiliated by slower cars and just enjoy the z for what it is. Trying to out do other cars on the road will only lead to trouble sooner or later anyway.
  20. Wow, that seems really good value. What was done as part of the "p3" out of interest?
  21. Out of interest which Panasonic do you have? If it's one of the later ones I'd stick with that, may not quite be big enough but the picture quality (which imo is the most important thing) will be better than any led model available right now, especially if you spend a little getting it calibrated. 4k content is so limited at the moment it's hardly worth worrying whether or not you have that or full hd. My two cents anyway.
  22. For anyone around the Burton area there looks to be a good deal on wheel refurb on groupon, 150 for all four. Looks like they do the works, strip, repair, powder coat and lacquer. Alloy Wheel Refurbishment and Powder Coating Service for Up to Four Wheels at Burton Alloys & Powdercoating http://www.groupon.co.uk/deals/burton-alloys-powdercoating?utm_source=mGm965&utm_campaign=UserReferral_ma Not sure this is the right place for this so mods please move if not.
