Scylla

I should perhaps qualify my original post, at least to some extent. It was a lighthearted expression to do with ageing, being bitter and twisted and generally revelling in my new car and I thought it would go down rather differently to the way it has; that is my fault, as I didn't make myself sufficiently clear. It was not meant to be taken at all seriously. That said, please feel free to ban me if you see fit, admin; I take exception to transparent hypocrisy in any form, and anyone here who owns a Nissan 350Z or indeed any other high-performance car, and is without sin, is entitled to throw the first "don't drive like that" stone in my direction. It's your forum.

To the contrary, I think that you are both stupid and pathetic: How lovely of you. Oh! and I forgot irresponsible as well. I've just noticed the embarrassingly high post count to your name; you're one of those self-appointed moral arbiters, aren't you? An armchair judge who sits and dispenses the iron-clad fist of justice to all before you from the cosy anonymity of the internet. I wish I could be perfect. Like you. I think you might find he's taking the PI55 mate If he is, then I stand corrected, but I would be surprised.

I know, I know, you're all absolutely correct! PS I've chosen my targets wisely; I may be pathetic but I'm not stupid.

I spend a lot of time just tooling around in my Zed, and since I got it, I've been unable to resist trolling young lads in hot hatches and then smoking them when they bite. I am a 50 year old man. It's pathetic.

I'm afraid my view is that such a distinctly personal car will prove difficult to sell, and the closer to the original spec you can make it, the better your chances. I'm only a very recent Z owner, but I think this principle applies to everything of substantial value, whatever is being sold, from cars to guitars.

Thanks a lot man, I assumed Croft would certainly be the nearest but I didn't know they could supply instructors too.

As the title says If anyone has any actual experience of paying for an instructor on a track in North-East England, I'd appreciate hearing about it. Cheers all

In a straight line - in the wet - you can feel the wheels spinning through your seat and the rear end squirms a bit and it frankly feels awesome

Was it wet? Mine wheelspins in 2nd and 3rd under hard acceleration when it's wet and the sensation is not unlike what you describe.

I feel the same, either because I'm just so precious about it or I'm worried some mollusc will key it. Or both

Few pics in my intro thread: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/109151-got-my-first-zed/page__st__20#entry1634357 No plans to mod although I have researched 3rd party exhausts. Would like a bit more rasp, and was looking at a japspeed k2 but I read too many reports about non-stock exhausts being annoying on the motorway.

After a little over 3 weeks with my 350z, I'm shocked at how much of my time and attention it's still taking. I drive it whenever I can, and sometimes when I can't drive it, I find myself wishing I could. I've noticed other road users are kind to me, which I wasn't expecting. Everyone I know loves it. The jealous ones always open the conversation with "bet that's not very good on fuel", to which I reply no, of course it isn't; it's a 3.5 litre V6 sports car. They then shut up, every time. It feels so special and is so satisfying. What a car. I love it.

Hi folks, hope this is the right forum to ask - can anyone suggest a realistic value for the Bose 6 CD head unit that came out of my 2009 GT please? I want to sell if I can get a few quid back. Cheers
