  1. Its a fail by the show researchers. Who asked the community for a suitable car.
  2. Settings. As far as I know Window needs resetting and possibly clock. I got a new battery because mine went flat and left me stranded. A trickle charger would have been handy.
  3. I have a charger at my house. The cable is locked in during charge. When charging stops it takes a minute or two to release on both ends. Assuming it works the same for public chargers. Obviously you risk losing your life interfering with a 240 volt cable Maybe theyre relying on safety cut off or being grounded 😂. One mistake....
  4. I blame the Russians for executing the ECU shutdown command from their basement in St Petersburg.
  5. The inevitable VeD and increased charge costs will apply soon. Always the idea!
  6. I thought they were creating petrol like stations in UK with costa coffees/McDonald's and possibly cinemas at this rate of charge 😂. Dont believe the supercharge hype. Many EVs are not able to accomodate supercharge. Some companies were taking responsibility to create them across the country. Service stations should pop up with solely EV charging. Say 12 -16 charging points/bays similar to a petrol station. £7-£10 per charge for now
  7. Electric car conversion businesses are up and coming. Its already there for classic cars. Terrible but as time goes on the mid and late 80s cars will start becoming exempt from Tax and ULEZ.
  8. We cant stop the inevitable. We can however delay the inevitable. Enjoy our cars for a couple more summers. Euro 4 and 5 which Z falls under is at risk.
  9. Yep....only that the GR86 and BRZ weigh 350kg less. Its fun to drive a light car with some power. Anyone feeling flush can import one for £33k door to door as theyre about 24k but theyre rising and they have used car prices syndrome in Japan too. BRZ might be slightly less. All sold out. Bound to get snapped up if any come up for sale. I like how the front looks like a Nismo mk2 and the back like an NSX. But the 3/4 profile like an RCF
  10. This will be mirrored in other cities. Birmingham, Manchester, Leeds, Cardiff, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Liverpool etc. Next will be small towns with bustling town centers. Death of the high street and local business but whose looking... Once it goes ahead in London I think that will be it. Im reading petrol Euro 4 will be next and Euro 6 Diesel. Isnt that 350Z and BMW Estates mid 2010s or similar. Sooner or later Euro 5 Petrol may be added. 222,000 signed. Cars before 1982 are exempt from ULEZ. Might be a worthy investment 👀. Oh yeah £12.50 a day will not always be £12.50 in typical fashion Change.org petition
  11. Could it be the supercharged black one that was for sale in midlands. Has nismo plate
  12. Famous street racer from Bulgaria/Georgia died few years ago. He was a passenger in someone elses car. Also I knew a guy whose crashed multiple times in Subarus and Motorbikes. Somehow he keeps surviving. The motorbike one had him landing on the opposite side of the dual carriageway with broken hips and shattered waist. The friend landed on the bus stop 60 metres away. Died instantly. Anyway some guy in my area crashed a white AMG GT63 coming off a roundabout. That caused a bit of rubbernecking as it was in the bushes Remember its ageist to suggest younger drivers are inexperienced or the younger crowd watch this content and think its cool
  13. The blind leading the blind. You also have the enablers in the comment section. Most probably dont have licenses and watch similar content Most reasonable people would take it to the track. Not one person commented negatively about the manner of driving. Like you said must be a much younger crowd most without licenses or new drivers. Nothing new though as can't expect people with 500-1000 bhp performance cars on youtube to do 30mph no ones gona watch it lol. Thas why ppl rent runways and can go as fast as the wind allows.
  14. Wow, Tokyo Drifto, getaway driver, catch em if you can! No balls no views right?.......
  15. Saturday in Town center. Clean GT facelift. Good to see more local owners picking this car up and getting something else as we are overrun by German M, S, RS, R, AMG series 👍🏽
  16. Couple Saturdays ago. Was behind in White 370Z both doing 25mph on clear residentials because great power and all that, noticed me and put hazards on. Then waved as headed off towards Ruislip M40.
  17. Unpopular opinion after seeing the exhaust threads of people mentioning noise and not wanting to cause offence. I actually support manufacturers like BMW, Toyota and VW using sound actuators. It might sound like a vacuum cleaner on High setting but you wont be disturbing the neighborhood or embarrassing yourself at Full Throttle. Plus when it all goes EV, youll be able to pick between fake V8 or V10 sound modules in your Tesla. Plus your Tesla actually moves quicker than a sports car. No issues from Neighbours and you get to enjoy your car in peace! 😂
  18. 3:25 Skilled young buck driver. "I broke hard". Nardo (Boulder) Grey new Z at the end very nice!
  19. Ants exhaust is loud....louder and raspier than AAM tails.....Youre better off getting a custom and saving the money if you dont want loud. My mate got an oem plus custom single exit exhaust. Its a bit like S Line type exhaust. "Sporty" no drone in cabin barely tunnel worthy not befitting a car like Nismo. The neighbours still wont thank you for the deep vibration on the floorboards. You may still be able to hear the sound actuator with a Gemini type exhaust.
  20. True....Porsche, Alpine Lotus, Nissan and co and coming with Boxster and Cayman EVs. Eventually the 911 will be Petrol Hybrid then Electric. If people want to keep ICE only way forward is Ethanol and other synthetic fuels that burn cleaner than Petrol/Diesel. Working from home or hybrid where the commute is by public transport can get away with it.
  21. Congrats welcome
  22. Some Nismo parts! Cool
