  1. or the one the most people know about if you said skyline to me; i would only be able to name the GT-R, R33, and R34. any other car type, or brand, and i can real off most variants and engine sizes without thinking. like i said above, the skyline never really floated my boat.
  2. just think if you pumped the dog full of helium. couple of farts and its airbourne.
  3. halfrauds, do some good free checks, especially if your planning on buying something. and you can pick up a battery for an ok price from there.
  4. i stand corrected i have never been into skylines that much, didn't dislike them, just never paid much attention. knew more about toyotas, and MR2's. Nissan is a hole new world of info for me. just getting to grips with the ZED info overload. i liked the comparison stories, does put it into perspective. thankyou for putting me right. promise not to make the same sweeping remarks again
  5. i need to get back in shape, my wife is now referring to my stomach as "my little father xmas belly" just don't seem to have the time to fit it in
  6. You don't know much about skylines, do you... not really, i thought skylines like the r34 etc (think i got the number right) are extremely rapid cars. with more bhp than the zed. so if the g35 has the zed engine and weighs more it would be as rapid as the original skylines. hence the first new skyline in ages the GTR. but like you said i don't know alot about skylines, and am happy to be corrected.
  7. Only takes 50mins to an hour m8....if you do things properly... Will be seeing my lass in half an hour...will ask her for details n will keep you informed.... Yeh if all you are doing is a basic work out! 50 mins is a warm up bro! Stretchin 5 mins Cardio sesh norm 60 mins Weights easily 1hr 30 mins Strethcin again 5 Cool down cardio 10 mins But hey what do i know If you can do 1hr 30 on weights then you are not pushing hard enough on what you are doing. When I used to train at uni the general quideline was if you can do more than an hours weight sesh, then you need to be pushing harder. Add to that 60mins of cardio before and you definately aint pushing hard enough Dude thats me tonning my body! Building muscle is easy! My best weight is 120kg bar. Altho i cant do that on the bells. I am a rugby player i do alot of fitness and weights i have to be good at both! Plus beer drinking is my best sport good man, rugby is the sport of kings. i keep contemplating playing again, but my dodgy knee is alsways in the back of my mind. i'd rather not dislocate it again, cos putting it back in makes child birth look like fun!
  8. i used to stop at 50 min's cos if i went to 70 min i could not lift my arms higher than my shoulders for 3 days. used to be able to bench press my own body weight. which is about 210 lbs or 105 kg's i think (bout 16 and 1/2 stone) not sure if i can still do it. or if i can proably only get 2 reps out before dropping it round my throat.
  9. see the supra looks like a viable replacement for the 350z. it maintains similar styling in the revised pic to what the zed is now. i've never stuck with the same manufacturer twice. although this is my second jap car.
  10. when i was training for the navy i was doing 3 hours a day 4 times a week in the gym. 10 min warm up on the bike, 50 min on the cross trainer 50 min on the other bike 10 min on the rowing machine 50 min in the weight room 10 in the sauna some times longer shame i let it all go. still have the guns but they need a polish up to get them back to their full former glory.
  11. you must have posted on every thread going since 2006
  12. Be interested to see the H&S setup when its complete. is yours the first, and playing the test bench from which all others would be made? will it be done in a day or will it have to stay for a little while? what kind of price we looking at. my last H&S exhaust cost £550.
  13. i think he might cry but if he wants to sell, its probably what its worth. take sarnies advice, he knows his stuff; i mean look at his post count, its higher than i've had hot dinners.
  14. it is a nissan skyline 350gt jap car, never sold over here, think it uses the 350z engine, but its put in a 2+2 coupe body shell. sold as the skyline 350gt. think it goes by another name in the US. don't know much about it. its not a true skyline by definition, but uses the name correct me if i'm wrong
  15. would the turbo xs exhaust be a comparable competitor to the nismo?
  16. sounds like something is left on and is draining the battery. could be a dodgy connection somewhere, or it not earthed properly. have a look at the battery terminals, do they look corroded/dirty, if so give them a clean. shiney is good. maybe an earthing kit might solve the problem. i know some old cars used to suffer this because things like glove box lights/bot lights weren't going out. and draining the battery. someone else might have a better idea
  17. welcome when i got my Zed, it was a toss up between the 350 and the S2000. and i love my Zed too. loving the V6
  18. it might just be the wheel spacing, sitting further inside the arches, if they were pushed out a bit that might improve the look.
  19. i guestimate around £11,500 - £13,500 maybe more depending on how desperate the seller is
  20. Welcome along i love the old GTV, but never had the guts to buy one for those exact reasons. i think they are beautiful. but the zed will be a good replacement.
  21. Insurance companies will head that way in the future, heard it on "road wars" the other night. bus companies already use them, as it helps with insurance claims. the proof is there, no escape. "honestly aliens came down and smashed the front end of my car" "lets check the video footage... i must admit if i hadn't seen it with my own eyes i would have thought you were trying to defraud your policy"
  22. i've found the manual for the amp section of this product. it has a full pictorial diagram showing how it all connects, http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/Stati ... al0410.pdf but i don't know enough about stereos, in particular the bose unit to work out how it connects up. would this work, or can you cut the connecting blocks off and hardwire it into the original wiring of the bose unit? anyone with ICE experience would be greatly appreciated.
  23. what is SEMA and where is it held?
  24. put it in someone elses car? avoiding that, there are some bike carriers that fit on to the rear of a car, through the boot. don't think you'll get something to go on the roof.
  25. where do you find car shows like this i want to go just don't tell the wife
