it was 5 months ago now, but I’m pretty sure green light specified RWD 200+hp. insurance has always been silly, oh well

That’s my current plan to be honest Davey, I’ve only had the car for about 5 months so far, fingers crossed it’s worth the wait in 7 months time. Greenlight was who I was referring to with the “1 year of experience”. the bloke I spoke to on the forum said he used to be a forum member, really nice chap but unfortunately there’s nothing he could do.

Confused.com is a good shout, I’ve only really ever used GoCompare and CompareTheMeerkat and I agree with you on the lying. But I wasn’t sure if they’d ask for proof of previous car history - not really big on insurance knowledge myself. appreciate the advice mate

Yeah, they were second “cheapest” after Hastings on comparethemarket so I rang them for a proper quote (as sometimes they are different to what they’ll offer via price comparison... quote for fully comp was £1550. i can get very cheap quotes (£700ish) if I go Third Party Fire and Theft only... but it’s a risk at the end of the day

So I attempted to get an insurance quote for my 350z through one of the insurers on here when I first bought it back in March. I was told they couldn’t cover me until I had at least 1 years experience driving a “high power” RWD car. im just wondering if they check this at all... I’m not going to mention them In case I decide to ring back, but at the moment I am paying out of the arse with Hastings (£1400/pa) or are there any insurers on here with no requirements such as that? it is understandable as I’ve only had my license for 3 years (no claims or such) and I’m only a young boy (22) any advice appreciated, cheers gents.

This was honestly my first ever meet. I had a 1.4 corsa only 4 months ago and would never have thought I’d have met some of the top people that I have so far right now. Absolutely Brilliant community.

Covid compliance was in order, plenty of elbow bumps instead of handshakes

Can’t wait Davey

I’m not a big facebook fan myself but I’ve got more in to it lately, just for the Z groups. fair few people about with some nice looking cameras so I can imagine there will be some cracking pictures up

Might be a bit late, but should be down tomorrow! Only just seen that this was going on! stick Mr + Mrs Evans on the list lol

Bollocks. I aren’t that savvy to be honest. My lady’s a sparky but she doesn’t know cars/audio at all really. might be an ICE shop jobby, save me ****in summat up. cheers mate, appreciate the help

Adapter is the right one as I checked with a few forum members, (incartec) amp is working, the sub isn’t... I realised I said Amp in my other post, if the amp wasn’t working there would be no sound at all. But the sub is just not doing owt

Yes mate, I’ve sorted it now but I’ve got a new issue now. I snipped the bullet connector off the blue and white wire and joined it in to where another blue and white connected on the plugs for the HU. works fine and is no longer drawing power when ignition is not on.... but now the amp behind the drivers seat isn’t working, any Bass in songs is non existent really.

Hi guys, installed a radio months ago, hooked it up according to a tutorial on here but had the blue and white amp remote bullet connector (in pics below) left out. I connected it to the double bullet yellow wire but I believe that’s a constant 12v, so it was draining my battery. For the past few months I’ve just had to keep my radio fuse out and stick it in whenever I fancy it (basically just on long trips) and then take it out when I get home (or the battery drains overnight) im out of ideas to be honest and I’m hoping somebody can help, local ICE store doesn’t seem interested to be honest. Any ideas?

Nice one mate, ive got a very brief booking on Thursday, Chris at Tarmac is doing me a massive favour and is going to have a look for me. Hoping it’s just the usual “grease the axle splines” fix to be honest. Do hope it’s not a dear one lol

To be honest, I don’t really know any that I trust. I’m always pretty cynical to be honest about places I don’t know and I’ve never met anyone mention a decent experience

Worth a shot I suppose ain’t it lol

I’m from stoke lol, had a suggestion from Mitz in the dms, if nothing comes from that I’ll take it for a run down there. still at work at the moment though and the zed is my daily so it’s a little awkward on time for big trips.

They’re a fair run from me (86 mile each way) so I might have a fish at somewhere else more local since cougar store are still closed at the moment. if they’re the only reputable place nearby that’s gonna be open anytime soon, I may have to bite the bullet and take a long drive down to them. Cheers mate

Save you a journey mate they’re still closed at the moment, thank you though!

cheers mitz

Anybody know of any garages back open yet. Creaking on the rear has started getting worse. I know it’s a multitude of things it could be, just want to get it sorted but honestly don’t fancy one of the dodgy standard mechanics near me. had been looking at cougar store but I’ve not seen anything off them yet about when they’re back open. creaking is starting to P me off and it’s plenty loud enough that other drivers have heard it and mentioned it. So embarrassing lol

Hi guys, wondering if anybody has some aftermarket alloys to sell to fit the 350z 5x114.3 8J 18inch had a look in the Sale section but couldn’t see anybody selling at the moment, cheers edit: sorry should have mentioned I’m after Aftermarket, I’ve got a set of Rays in decent Knick if anybody’s after a swap or somethin

Followed this guide, was great other than some issues with my actual wiring supplied. I had no bullet connector for the blue/white (amp) and the only blue/white I had was just running from 1 connector to another. Only bullet connected wires were a yellow and red, and yellow had a double bullet connector. So I connected to the yellow, which I believe is 12v Ignition controlled. anyway, radio is constantly drawing 3mv (tested at the engine bay fuse) even when off. I believe it’s draining the battery. I am hopeless when it comes to car electrics... any suggestions? Or anyone in Staffordshire willing to sort it for me? Haha (will pay of course)

Forgot to get back to you, Sorry mate! just checked, it’s unfortunately not the one you’re after, good luck in finding one mate
