  1. Cheers bud. lovely V6 engine.... will be sorry to see her go
  2. Thanks, priced to SELL !!!!! Thanks for the edit removing phone BTW. any queries, just ask! £4500 ono.
  3. Forgot to put - based in east Essex (nr. Colchester)
  4. It took me a while to find this example with it's manual gearbox & brembo brakes and I have now owned it for the past 3 years. It has seen Europe, most of the UK, has taken mates & family (plus big suitcases in the boot) to weddings, events and everything else inbetween. Its based on the 350 z so it pulls like a freight train in every gear, sounds great, stops pretty sharpish and with lower profile tyres on the front turns in pretty quick too. This is incredibly stable at high speeds (yes, i even have a photo from the boys in blue for that one) or you can tootle at 70mph & 2500rpm in 6th.... it truly is a great all rounder. I will be genuinely sad to see this car go, however it is time to get a different car on my bucket car ownership list, no part-ex required.... 54,000 miles, New MOT, mechanically sound, good condition, std car apart from stainless catback exhaust, back on generic 05 plates... check out the pics and give me a call if you're interested. £4500 ono quick sale price!!! Stephen EDIT have removed this as your number for your own benefit (internet programmes will find your number and use it maliciously) Needs new bushings on front control arms and tyres are low tread on rears (as noted on last MOT), bit of age related wear but good condition & sound car. Air Conditioning, Climate Control, Powered Folding Mirrors, Central Locking, Immobiliser, Remote Central Locking, Electric Seats, Folding Rear Seats, ISO-Fix, Adjustable Steering Column, Power Steering, Trip Computer, ABS, Twin Air Bags, Curtain Air bags, Xenon lights, Fog Lamps, LED sidelights, Electric Mirrors, Electric Windows, Stereo, Shag-pile carpet, 19'' Alloys, S/steel exhaust, Rare 6-Speed Manual Gearbox, Brembo Brakes....... Oh, and a big cheesy grin as standard.
  5. Nissan 350GT I think. Pete Oh bugger of course! I've seen 350 conversions done in the US but not many here. Yes, Nissan Skyline 350GT. Passenger & boot space is better than most small hatchbacks. You'd have to hate your passengers if you converted a Zed to a 2+2.
  6. Still got the car but looking to sell as it high speed trouble is not good. If anyone wants a 350 with rear seats that will happily sit at 140mph+ then just PM me. Spot on car, low milage at a great price Cheers. Yes, very lucky. Also might have something to do with the fact I was early and when signing in held the door open and said hello to an official guy who worked there.... next time I saw him he was one of the magistrates.
  7. I'm back..... yay. This thread certainly did create a bit of a divide between those who sympathised with me and those of you who just think I'm a tool. Anyway, I know you're all itching to hear how I either was burned at the stake or got taken into custody and given a good spanking.... I took your advice and gained representation from a lovely lawyer who used constructive remarks like: "My client is an idiot. He accepts & understands that" "If my client were driving dangerously he would also be charged with dangerous driving and that is not the case" "My clients car is easily capable of in excess of 160mph" and somehow they saw that I was merely a nice guy who sticks to 30, likes kids, works hard and occasionally drives a bit too fast on an empty dual carridgeway. So they fined and then banned me. Moral of the story...... don't speed. The verdict just for reference.. 45 day ban, £130 fine and the worst was having to get on public transport. Ugh.
  8. Tecnocast Corsair 17" / 110pcd / 5 bolt / +47 Made in Japan Wearing 225/45 ZR17 2x bridgestone (non legal) and 2x Pirelli P6000 (certainly legal) Pretty good condition (see pics). there are wheel weights (not on all wheels) and small scuffs which might bother some. Hence asking price for you guys is very very low for these wheels. Collection only from Colchester, Essex 07580 005924 £300.
  9. Hope it's sitting just right Admin - please lock thread
  10. Not sure where to pop this.... so advance sorry to admin if required to be moved. P&P.... I've just sold some spacers that were due to go to the Netherlands on here but the price was unreal!! 5kg small box and the best courier price was £46. I checked Parcel Force, DHL, and APC....... Who would you recommend for sending stuff?
  11. Tony Z was in their 1st .... He's based a smidge further away than most of you so sent him a postage price.... waiting to see if he's happy with price.

  19. There's already a thread running over there. I started it for him, just to see what folks thought if they just got the facts. http://www.pistonhea...h on a 70mph DC Thank you, interesting read.
  20. I have a Nissan 350GT that might be for sale... Rear seats have ISO points and happily accommodate kid stuff. Huge rear boot, rear seats also fold down too. It's last loaded outing was for my sisters wedding, all in we had: Travel cot, Out'n'about buggy, steriliser, suitcase, baby, missus, ton of presents, suit, dresses, kid stuff, stair gate... etc. pretty comfy All 350GT's are imports, took me a while to find mine. Love it.
  21. One Nissan 350GT (yes, 4 seats), unrestricted to 155mph+ and one careful owner for sale.... Edit: Sounds like it's alot more stable at high speed that your piffley 350Z's..
  22. Wow, this is a can of worms.... and all i wanted was a pointer for someone who might be able to represent me. Very much a camp of two types. 1) Those who are empathetic and understand that perhaps owning a powerful car might involve speed, so long as you're not stupid with it. 2) ... and those who are mightily scared at the prospect of speed and condone anything but law abiding goodness. As a note, doing 60mph on a B road through twisties is within the law but on the balance of probability more dangerous that 129mph on a 3(inc hard) lane straightish road. Accelerating hard in a built up area where you're putting more stress through the car is more likely to create a failure and see you heading into a house than driving like I did. Whilst I do have to concede that it wasn't the best of choices speeding I morally sit on my perch knowing that on the balance of probability my choice to drive as i did would not have an impact on other road users/pedestrians in my vicinity, unlike the driving often seen that is 'within the law'. Out of curiosity, if your car were to slip, fail or head towards something you'd rather not... How many of you have recently done an emergency stop, allowed the car to slide and performed practice skills recently if the worst should happen? If not, you probably should. For those of you in camp #2, you should probably get on a track and start to understand what you car is capable of, more so you'd probably find your limits first. #That is all.
  23. It's all in a cutting. Fences up top and armco on h/shoulder & central. Fields bordering it are arable land too. The only way to get down there is from the road ... If someone wants to play peekaboo with cars atleast at 129mph it will be certain rather than possible vegetative state. Sorry pal I don't agree, the point is that at that speed from nearly half a kilometer away you are caught at 129mph, if you missed the copper, you miss everything else. If an animal runs out in front of you and you flip into a ditch and kill yourself think of what impact that has on your friends and family. What if a fault comes of your car, tyre blow out, there are so many things that at that speed end catastrophically. Too many times you hear stories of people who think that all is safe so they want to speed, too many times its associated with people being killed. I'm not going to preach but I really hope whatever gets thrown at you in the coming months you do actually reflect on this rather than aim for the shortest ban possible and then jump back in and hammer it up an A road again. I saw the copper, plain as day when he hopped out from the trees. Popped my anchors on but ..... and here we are. I'm a little confused though, you have had high powered rwd & fwd cars... have you never booted it? Have you always kept to speed limits?
