  1. Turbo helps guessing the gear ratios are long. I couldnt imagine that gearbox and Naturally Aspirated engine.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. 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
  6. 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.
  7. https://www.autocar.co.uk/car-news/new-cars/toyota-gr86-sale-just-two-years-due-new-regulations smh...
  8. 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!
  9. 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....
  10. 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.
  11. If you go on tarmac youtube the new style is there. Yep ill keep you posted when the freeze is over
  12. Nismo is more refined smoother. I wanted a 370 given the choice. More presence. But i like the rawness and sound of the 350.
  13. Best to only wash above 11 degrees maybe. January and February will be worse. Hopefully it wont be extreme for us in the south.
  14. Can add that to the bucket list then. 😉. Not far from Bristol. Sandy beach? I agree with OEM + mods. Especially on the GT.
  15. You seen the tail lights? with the sweeping LEDs? £550 or something. Yes the headlights are expensive id expect that price if Nissan did them lol South coast. Under 2 hours away from London
  16. My brother said to be patient and get a third Nismo. I thought Id get a GT Edition Auto for now. Picking up next weekend. Definitely coming down to the coast in Spring. Be good to go for a blast. Hope to have my short tails on by then too. Ive seen it person, have to say the price you got it at was worth every penny. I think you should consider the oem nismo arch liners although its equivalent to having go faster stickers. What you think of the new Morimoto rear lights?
  17. Looks good. Im wary of spacers though. An engineer once told me to stay away 😂.
  18. White Z spotted in Tennessee and famous tail of the dragon. Looks like the performance spec
  19. braniac seems like a good update. Lots of work but worth it. Doing it yourself?
  20. I had my Nismo now sold changed just email them via the website. Takes a week to sort. Someone will email you to confirm. You might need to provide proof from the V5
  21. 350 @the wheels is gone. Well until the V8 wakes up post 60 😂
