  1. that mod the braniac all in i think its shy of £700 with customs. Plus if you dont have a "non navigation model you need to buy the base switches from Ebay and mess around with controls. Steering wheel controls too. The android retrofit just for the part plus shipping i saw was £699 off Ebay from Australia. Depends if keeping the car. Each to their own. Braniac looks neat but android/raspberry retrofit is a better option as our center console is 90 degree not slanted up like many modern high end cars. So if youre tall youd be cracking your neck to just to take a look. You do get a much more modern interior look though. As long as you can change the track/folder, make a phone call and still have voice recognition from the wheel then its not so bad. This is mainly functionality over looks. Id prefer retrofit.
  2. Thanks to Eddie for the Y pipe. Very generous of you. Hope to get hold of a Midpipe soon.
  3. Non Nismo Midpipe in good condition is all I need now.
  4. Ill be able to pick up on Sunday evening if possible as its on the way
  5. If anyone is has one in non rust condition would be interested at a reasonable price.
  6. how long did it take to setup? Seems a cheaper option than the American Australian ipad setups.
  7. 0% is very rare. Low volume sales might be a major factor in that
  8. So just 5 cars from all over UK?! Any Welsh locals wish to join us? Be home by 5pm if in South Wales lol The following day 19th is now a bank holiday unexpectedly good opportunity for lay in. Rip. Long Live the King. More pics from the route? Need your upselling skills!
  9. PCP if you intend to move it on eventually HP if you plan to keep it long term. PCP on 6% or less is a decent deal. Usually lower monthly payments due to the balloon payment.
  10. Batman of the future using EV is feasible lol
  11. I reckon brakes are due to the typical corner cutting Nissan..Ported gearbox and engine with not much in the way of modification. Remember OEM pads are @*!# anyway. I saw way more improvement when I went with Hawk pads and aftermarket discs which were shaved due to juddering. No tramlining. They expect people would buy then spend hard earned dollars modding to "fix" issues.
  12. Its a fair criticism because Nissan want to markup cars and charge 70-125,000 dollars. So is it better than the older models? The new Z has a more powerful engine and android auto/apple car play....... Americans said the 370 Nismo wasnt much different and heavier to the 370 ST. It was more a clout thing. So by definition the new Z performance should be better than the outgoing Nismo if the differences are minimal bar aesthetics and wheels. Theres pressure on Nissan to improve over previous Nismo and current Sport/Performance models to justify the hefty price tag accompanying it. If i have a nismo now what justification is there for spending an extra $30k instead of dropping in a vr30 for 7k and maybe new springs 1k lol
  13. The criticism is a soft suspension, crap brakes and tires. Unsettled on the track. They went too GT. Its marginally quicker on a winding track than the Nismo I dont know why it took so long for anyone to do this comparison. That just shows you the Nismo is a superior car. If it had a VR30 it would beat the new Z on the track. Nissan should have at least gone with better tyres and Suspension for the Sport version. Maybe the Nismo will fix these issues.
  14. Along with the VR30 engine is a good shout.
  15. Congrats...Wrap it Sapphire Blue later 😂. You sure you cant get a custom exhaust made or tails. Any warranty with the car?
  16. Garden sounds like major work. A bit like ours. 😂 Every car has their problems. You just want the issues to be something like TPMS sensors or window seal scratched the glass like my car. Nothing Engine, Gearbox related and in typical VW fashion electrics. Either way its all luck and touchwood. Ive heard of people blowing VQs in US. All depends. Then again when you do doughnuts for IG clicks from cold what do you expect. Or try to drift round a corner claiming 30mph. It is what it is!
  17. Being hard on yourself. Who wrote these conditions 😂 Did you consider a TTRS. Theres one floating around for £32k but usually they were 35k plus.
