  1. I have the Cobra resonated exhaust. To be fair it's usually after quite a fast drive that it knocks. It sounds like it comes from random parts of the car, it'll be a few knocks spread over 10 to 20 seconds. Probably is it cooling . In first gear there's a sort of whining sound, it's faint but when the radio is off I can really hear it. I'm 90% sure all is fine, the handbrake is quite annoying though. There's such a wealth of information and knowledge here I thought I'd ask about the few little things . Thanks.

    Front lip

    Thanks for the replies . My Mrs wants to save for a holiday, but I'm still tempted to do this (our secret). When I come to resell the car, would it be easy to remove? How much should I pay for fitting? Chris, I'll drop you a PM if I choose to buy. Thanks for your detailed reply .
  3. Please just take the car back and get another one . They are so many good Zs out there that you could drive, why put up with this one when you don't have to? It's your choice at the end of the day, don't shy away from posting, but I'm sure you can understand why people may be frustrated. It's a shame to see someone get ripped off and just allow it, especially when you have such a strong case against it.
  4. Hi guys, sorry to post 3 issues in one thread, but I love my car and want to make sure it's as healthy as can be . Firstly, there's a sound I can hear when in first gear. I'm told this isn't a problem, but what actually is it? Secondly, I hear a knocking sound after some drives and I've turned the ignition off. The garage I park it in overnight has quite an echo, so I really notice it there. Lastly, my handbrake sucks. I've had it looked at and it's sort of better, but it's still bad when on a steep hill. Are these common problems? What's the best action to take for each, if they are even issues? I'm not mechanical at all, I felt proud of myself for changing my wipers today haha. All advice is appreciated. Happy Saturday!! Joe.
  5. Someone's been watching Essex Boys! Dont you mean Layer Cake? Haha yeah of course!! Love that film. I forgot the Range was blue. Got them muddled up.

  8. Hope you're not planning a road trip abroad until it's gone .
  9. BLOPS 3 on the PS4. My tag is Lysergixx or maybe Lysergixxx. I actually forgot! haha!
  10. Hey guys, my cousin in Nigeria is a prince and he just e-mailed me saying I have some inheritance! I didn't even know I had a cousin in Nigeria! This Tuesday is awesome.

    Front lip

    Hi all, I have an 05 black 350Z with some light mods (exhaust, rear diffuser) and was thinking of adding a front lip. Problem is my road has a lot of speed bumps, I can clear them going over one wheel quite easily, would a front lip make that even harder? Where's the best place to get parts like this? Of course I would get it professionally fitted as I feel when it comes to reselling I can always be honest and say all parts have been sourced and fitted by a professional. Just gives the next buyer lots of confidence . Thanks. Joe.
  12. Really sorry to hear what's going on . Hope it works out, I'm sure you have a case. As far as doing any work on the car, I wouldn't. Leave it because you have a case to give it back and get a refund, if you start fiddling with it then they could say "No, this isn't how the car left the lot". Their argument might not stand up, but why give them some ammo?
  13. Thanks . Wow they were fast replies! Oh I should have specified, the sticker is actually on the light! Might be a bit fiddly to remove.
  14. Hi all, Firstly, excuse the state of my Z. End of the week and it's my daily driver . These have been bugging me ever since I bought the car back in December, but I've been enjoying it too much to care. Now though they bug my quite a lot; I'm not slagging off the dealer, they were lovely and I'd happily buy from them again. So, what's the best way to remove these? I could probably have a go at peeling them off, they just look like stickers, but I don't want to do any damage. Bonus shot with my chicken legs . Happy Friday everyone! Joe.
  15. My insurance is £660 annually. Fully comp, 23 years old with zero no claims bonus, ld have got it for £500 with a black box, but yeah... not gonna happen in a million years! I have business travel on my insurance too because sometimes I have to drive to Coventry for work, but that put it up by like £20 a year. I think my postcode, job and the fact that it's kept in a locked garage overnight helps too though.
  16. I'm 23 going on 13 lol. The seafront isn't actually a bad place when you're right on the front, but it's 20 now I believe and they are quite strict on cruising. There used to be meet-ups where people would turn around in a big car park and just go up and down the seafront. The surrounding area of Southend is a bit of a nightmare though, pretty much everywhere is full of speed bumps and pot holes. http://www.echo-news.co.uk/news/13625426.Car_cruisers_banned_from_Southend_seafront_by_the_courts/ I work in Brentwood and use my Z as a daily driver, the amount of pot holes and speed bumps is infuriating.
  17. Ha! How funny, I assumed it was Leigh down this end. My bad. Think I'm a bit too excited to get spotted.
  18. Websters Way carpark? That place was an absolute chav-fest in the evenings, not sure how it is any more because I don't really hang around in the highstreet any more. If you see a black 05 350Z driving around Rayleigh, MA05 *** that'll be me .
  19. Black 05 350z. I often drive around Leigh . I often park near a house with a blue 350Z... Woodside.
  20. I live in Rayleigh but I often drive around Eastwood, Westcliff, Leigh Southend every now and then. My best mate in Leigh, I often park my car at his house, his neighbour has a blue one. I wonder if the owner is on here .
  21. Racism has no place in this country. Take your footage to your dealer and show them, be polite but also don't hold back on letting them know how disappointed and upsetting it is to hear that. You're a customer of theirs, it's not only in their best interest as a business, but also as human beings to make sure the people responsible for racist comments are dealt with. Take it to the highest level if necessary. I guarantee someone is going to get an absolute bollocking if you play your cards right.
  22. Har Har! Yes, it was a narrow road! Thanks for the English lesson.
