  1. Due to the global shipping programme they can be bought for £700 roughly including customs depending on exchange rate. Its just the risk associated with it arriving in non working order. Well i must have been seeing things. The pound has weakened against the dollar last time i checked. So prices can change its business.
  2. JDM clear tail lights are near £1000. I saw them on a 370 i was looking at. You looking to keep your car stock. You thought about mapping it or anything of that nature?
  3. I could have sworn i posted this discussion in off topic a month ago. I signed yesterday. "tampering".
  4. He cant react....Hes already labelled due to personal politics and gets a lot of hate. He wants the audience to judge for themselves and not override it with post race antics. The story will stay on topic when they print it. It wont read "Hamilton acts out post race" Human nature is to take any win even if a child ran on the track and the rules state something else. I dont see race leader saying not like this, one more or redo it. You take your W and pretend nothing happened. In terms of appeal, its like appealing to Vince McMahon on why a championship belt shouldn't change hands. Its not your company 😉. "bossman wtf was that" "......*shrugs"....but boss.....*shrugs*......the rules state *shrugs*.....
  5. Around 6:00. Seems the exhaust is reserved. Needs a damn straight pipe.
  6. Are they hinting at a 370 mk 1 Nismo style bumper for the Street Nismo version? I think R36 concept may be imminent but release wouldn't be till 2025/26 at the very least. R35 I reckon has 18 more months. They have to go Petrol Hybrid to be able to sell in Europe and Australia. Or develop a cleaner engine. I dont think it will have the same parts bin production as Z. Looking at 4 times the cost of Z investment. Just wonder if the sales will justify the investment. What will the pricing be? £100,000?!
  7. Turbo helps guessing the gear ratios are long. I couldnt imagine that gearbox and Naturally Aspirated engine.
  8. Thanks guys. Had to. Always on Autotrader or Youtube. See how long this lasts. We need to organize a road trip for sure! Wales or Scotland anybody? 😎. Hopefully Covid would have calmed by spring, summer. Wanted to get more pics but it rained.
  9. Not really new but good to be back in the Z fold. Ive had a silver 350Z 2003 when I first joined in 2016, I then got a 370Z Nismo and sold it in 2018. The car first caught my attention on Gran Turismo 18 years ago I think. I even found a comment from 2009 from my uni days on youtube about the Z on GT4. Hence the name. I got sick of 4 bangers and thought why not brave something with a bit more grunt and character. Had to sell my 2nd nismo this year. I said id treat myself at the end of the year. Picked up a GT Edition Auto 2012 on Saturday from Sheffield 2.5 hours drive back. Great condition in and out. I thought I try the auto and give my left leg a well earned rest. Its good to be back. Look forward to attending a meet or two next year. Well the local ones bedford down to brighton and in-between Ace Cafe. We will see.
  10. My brothers got the A80 a real head turner. Hoping to get a ride in it in summer and see how it compares to the 370Z. It has a 4 speed auto.
  11. That view from inside the car is exposing the overbearing gaping grill. The aftermarket better get to work. There will be money to be made from some snazzy "angular" redesign. Some flair maybe
  12. The price has increased by £200 from £599...Ill probably do the mod sometime next year back and front lights. They look awesome. Just expensive.
  13. https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/new-cars/toyota-gr86-sale-just-two-years-due-new-regulations smh...
  14. I just saw a 61k miles Nismo mk2 for £18700 trader....The guys im getting my 370 GT edition from held the car for me for 3 weeks so im committed its overpriced but in great condition... it is what it is....Nismo is a bargain for whoever wants to buy. Told you about winter!
  15. Id hit the ejection button...😂Yeah 21 and 23k mk 2... guess owners really want rid....Only time to sell is summer. Now its just going to sit. Few bargains to be had. I think last summer sent prices crazy as long as shortage of chips continue used car market will remain strong. for anything 16 onwards could get £25,000+ but it will more likely go quicker in the summer. £5k profit thats if someone actually shows up. Many many dreamers out there. Question is then what else is there at that price point that has that package. Not much....
  16. I did see a Nismo mk2 for £21,000...Winter is the best time to buy. Might get a Nismo few years down the line for 7k more rather go for the jugular and aim to get the new one if i can lol Yeah hopefully a dry weekend in March April can arrange a meet up. I had to. I was getting depressed spending crazy money on a 4 banger Honda 👀. Wasnt worth it.
  17. If you go on tarmac youtube the new style is there. Yep ill keep you posted when the freeze is over
  18. Nismo is more refined smoother. I wanted a 370 given the choice. More presence. But i like the rawness and sound of the 350.
  19. Best to only wash above 11 degrees maybe. January and February will be worse. Hopefully it wont be extreme for us in the south.
  20. Can add that to the bucket list then. 😉. Not far from Bristol. Sandy beach? I agree with OEM + mods. Especially on the GT.
