  1. Can you imagine the insurance renewal increase after something like that? That is of course if they even need to claim, might be so rich they don't care.
  2. Agreed. Keep the driving meets to places like the Peak District and the likes. MopedMark you should bring some of your gearknobs along with you, I'll help convince everyone else how great they are Fingers crossed the weather holds out for Tuesday evening and it stops raining for a while.
  3. Garage (and house) sorted now, been using it regularly for the past week and a bit. Once again my car is back in its natural habitat, garaged. Surprising seeing how much they had to take out compared to the original garage floor level just to make the slope in, it never felt that great at the time. Then today mixed fortunes. Bad, battery died so spent time fitting a replacement from EuroCarParts (i hope that's the end of it, and not some kind of parasitic drain - heads up Mitz ) . Good, fresh rubber being fitted. Hankook Ventus S1 EVO2 K117 275/40/18 and 255/40/18 But not to my Rays this time, something else. Thanks to 3sjr from the forum for delivering them in person the majority of the way. I'm not sure shiny wheels are going to do me any favours though, something else to tirelessly try and keep clean.
  4. What do you think to these Hankooks? I've got exactly the same tyre and sizes on order from Camskill currently to fit to some LGMT4's and could find next to no reviews on them when i placed the order. It was a toss up between them and Kumho PS91 Ecsta as Camskill only had 10 tyres to chose from in 275/40/18 lol.
  5. I cant help you on the price either sorry. Not sure where in the Midlands you are refering to but I've used a guy called Scott in Long Eaton for any paint work over the years, https://www.st-autobodies.co.uk/contact-us/ . He fitted and painted a Veilside lip and filled the wiper/spoiler holes in my mates 350z.

    Z prices

    This. Either wait it out as Kev said, or return to stock/OEM and trade it in/webuyanycar. The 2nd hand car market for private sellers is on its death bed, the vast majority of sales are done via traders now.
  7. I don't think any aftermarket exhaust is going to really help you with that setup you are running. The only reason the Nismo was quieter I imagine is because it retains a lot of the OEM'ness with its large backbox.
  8. Its not the pedal, its the slave cylinder on the gearbox housing below that you are hearing. I had the same thing.
  9. I think you've missed pintopete58 off the list, he responded but didnt add himself to it.
  10. I've been in desperate need of some proper 350z mats since i bought the car, managed to put it off for almost 3yrs so far 1 Des Farley 2 Patrick John 3 Matty Jasper 4. Stuggerz 5.

  12. Spoiler looks good on your black car i reckon, I'm on the fence about the whole "double spoiler" effect though, it put me off the Strosek spoiler Tarmac used to sell for that reason too. I'll reserve judgement until I see it in person at the Cooper arms (ps. would have looked better with my spacers fitted!)
  13. Some nice Skylines there Ian, was the R34 worth the premium over the R33 for the more modern platform? I'd like an R34 GTT at some point as a cost effective compromise
  14. Pick a date/time please and I'll see what i can do. No earlier than 7pm if possible. Rippo350z has said hes interested depending on day/time too.
  15. Sounds good. Is your Saturday going to be messy which means Sunday is a write off too?
  16. Its their first stab it it though so you cant expect them to jump in with a bespoke engine on their first attempt (the veloster abortion doesn't count). It worked for Renault doing sporty versions of their normal range, heres hoping it works for Hyundai too so we can see more creations in the future.
  17. Myself and a couple of others have fitted Depo headlights, I got mine from: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FACELIFT-XENON-SCHEINWERFER-D2S-SCHWARZ-PAAR-FÃœR-Nissan-350Z-Z33-02-09/302090514994 They are a decent alternative from a cost perspective, considering you get brand new lights.
  18. Also find out how long the site will remain as an in progress building site. My mate bought a new build 5yrs ago and they still havent tarmaced any of the roads because there are houses on the site still being built. Not nice navigating the slalom course of raised ironworks everytime you leave the house.
  19. We've also got the lowest unemployment since 1975, I recommend you change jobs Zeezeebaba and get that overdue payrise elsewhere.
  20. Hi Gareth which MeisterR coilovers are included: GTI, ZetaCRD, ZetaCRD+ etc?
  21. I like the door handles and the rear glass hatch I guess, that's about it
  22. Pretty much the same story here, a couple of the tabs have seen better days (but not yet snapped) but as you can see by my post: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/112245-sargaras-silver-350z-de/#entry1681247 I suspect the condensation is caused by the very low quality rubber seal, they distort under heat a lot even if they appear correctly sealed when cold. I contacted a DEPO seller about replacement caps (with better condition tabs) but was told to reuse OEM caps instead of buying replacements which is why i asked
  23. You can thank the bikers for that using it as a time trial. It's still my go-to road however, even now i live in Nottingham instead of Derby i still go out of my way occasionally to make the trip. Shame the pub on top is closed at the minute but any journey that involves Manchester etc I will detour over Cat&Fiddle instead
  24. Yeah exactly why i ask, I too have condensation (during the winter, dont notice it currently due to the heat). I've been told the OEM caps fit into the DEPO headlights but was just wondering if anyone has fitted the OEM caps and can confirm they do fit or not.
  25. Another DEPO convert, welcome along. Did you fit the supplied DEPO covers to the back of the headlight housing (light grey plastic covers with little tabs?) or did you re-use the OEM covers out of interest? Same question to you Aashenfox.
