i was gonna get round to it at some point but ya know i've got a memory like a sieve

s'funny, i heard you've got a sieve like a memory

Get some piccies up here then

Yeah I did, but then it was deleted

Nope,

it's still there, they must have removed a link or something though!

Your website link is still at the bottom of your post though, so they will still be able to contact you.

Have you got a website, or can you post more piccies?

Strange isn't it? funnily enough, it's the cheapest place i could find for it (postage costs are low to Ireland )

Yep, i'm an NXT user too

Good priceshttp://www.overclockers.co.uk/acatalog/Meguiar_s_Car_Products.html

Sorry, did post on the other site, but put wrong name in at first - idiot - since corrected. Oh, I see funky has now posted on the thread = sorted

Someone on the "other" site is looking for one

Good to see you here - you mean you didn't get the invite then

Hey , less of the old - thats Steve-B

I don't think that IS the Nismo lip, it seems to protrude a bit too far!

Hi Redzed

steve_b was and still is steve_bow on other forums.....

 

Did not intend to hide as told people that was on this site and have made it clear on other thread that its was me.

 

Just that steve-b beat me to it and I tried this as a different version.

 

Steve

That clarifies it, steve-b is steve-bow, but Steve-B is Steve-B

So will the CLS as the security Is not up to scratch.

The theft of cars is nowhere as big an issue here in Ireland as it is in the UK - and by the time I could afford one (Start at €85k here) i'm sure they will be sorted

Steve - but you ARE old???

I've kept my old name (didn't need to hide anything ?)

Obviously some of you haven't - can we find out what you were known as on the "old" site and what you're known as now?

I'm getting awfully confused

Think i'll keep it - for now

Although if i ever scrape up enough money for the CLS, it'll be gone in a flash!

I have noticed that the common trend when advising newbies is to steer clear of JDM's and buy a UK car, because they are better.

Let me just clarify one of the points.

JDM's and UK models are made in the same factory and have Very minor differences. One of the more major of these is that JDM's consistantly have about 10hp MORE than UK models, due to differences in the ECU.

If you are intending to modify your 350Z, I recommend that you buy a JDM, for this reason and the fact that it will be cheaper too

Now let the arguments commence

The traction control can actually cause you problems, if you are sliding sideways. If you are in this situation, sometimes the worst thing you can do is lift off! - which is exactly what the TC does.

I had exactly this happen to me when exiting a roundabout, which had some kind of spill on the exit. The back end started coming out to the right and as i was correcting it, the TC kicked in, which made the back end immediately whip round to the left and nearly put me off the road.

If I am driving "with spirit" I now turn the traction off.

Sounds like the clutch to me mate, was it accompanied by a burning smell and/or a bit of clutch slip?

The Zed will let you have a small amount of wheel spin, but only a little bit, unless you turn the traction control off of course

Ha ha, i must admit, I found that a bit funny and over the top

They must be afraid of you Val

I have a set of Steve-B vent trims and they are the dogs!

They are easy to fit (I did it myself ) and mine havent lifted at all!

(Although I DID fit them with an epoxy - so they will NEVER lift)

Why thank you Dorian, what a pleasant welcome

Someone had to join here, to keep the average level of technospeak down and with you and me, you've got both ends of the spectrum

If you are placing an order, could you also either post here or PM me with to let me know, so that I can keep track of what has been ordered

Cheers

The artist formerly know as Eddmac, oh , hang on - i'm still eddmac

Good site guys I'll be visiting here regularly, i see plenty of the old faces.

Hi guys,

Some of you may remember that i was in the process of organising a group buy on the old site. I do not feel that the so-called "split" should stop any one from either site from benefitting from the the savings, so if any of you want a cheap, good quality Nismo type spoiler heres the story.

My supplier is a guy called Terry Rees. He runs a car import business and through this he has located a source for cheap, good quality bodykits. One of the guys on here, Giffer (was roadster350z on the old site) has a spoiler from him and says it is top quality and comes in a Nismo box!

Terry will supply the spoilers painted to match the colour of your car and delivered to a UK address for £265.

If you want to avail of this Group buy, send terry payment either through paypal, or a cheque by post to the following:-
