    Corvett vs. XKR vs. Nissan GTR

    i'd still take the jag over the GTR,

     

    might not be as fast but it looks better (personal taste i know) and i prefer the jag interior (again personal taste) and i bet its less of an issue to fix out of warranty than the GTR is.

     

    if i had the cash though i'd get the XKR S :cloud9:

    just bought a XKR convertible ..they are really a good car :thumbs:

    Should get yourself a GTR Tim, or get a 370 - be great to see you straighlining the Welsh roads again with your infamous pyjama top :lol:

    Hi there Colin,, a mate of mines got one, it's always on the back of a breakdown truck unfortunately :scare: a GTR by the way not a 370 :teeth:

    What watch to buy?

    ALL these watches (bar possibly the B&R) are SO over the top, in your face and awfully ostentatious!

     

    How can you take any of them seriously?

     

     

    Bought myself a lovley Rado a few years ago. Subtle, plain, classic... lovely...

    Nahhh ...the Rado doesn't do it for me I'm afraid, as for the ostentatious point, your driving a 350z FFS :lol:

    I bought a limited edition automatic Tag Link a few years ago. Great watch in my opinion.

     

    My (limited) advice is to buy something automatic and from a proper watch maker.

     

     

    Wheres Lomoto when you need him? He's King of watches!

    Hi Stew.. hope you are well and the Zed ??., Cant beat Omega's IMO.. recently bought a Planet Ocean Chronograph..very nice item

     

    a few of my collection :blush:

    Milltek or ?

    in Exhaust

    Posted

    Hi All,

     

    My Z's exhaust has just started blowing, so it's time to get a new one. I've trawled through the forums and the web looking for alternatives, and it seems that all of the really interesting exhausts have to come from the U.S. which is a fairly risky proposition IMO.

     

    Anyway, I've pretty much decided to go with a Milltek exhaust as it looks reasonably stock, but from reports is slightly louder at higher revs. What I would like to find out is whether anyone has good or bad experiences with them. Oh, and if anyone thinks I'm wasting money and should go for something else, then that would be helpful too! ;)

     

    Finally, does anyone know of a reputable supplier and fitter in the Surrey area?

     

    Thanks!

    I have had a Miltek and a Nismo fitted to the 350Z I used to own , The miltek was a lot better made than the Nismo IMHO, the Nismo Y-piece broke but worked fine with the genuine Nissan item fitted instead..

    How can a 3.2 Porsche be considered a girls car? because its a convertible?? I don't think I've ever even seen a woman driving a boxster....

     

     

    I see nothing but middle aged women driving them round here :lol:

    Yeah but that was a old 2.7 not a 3.2 S and Tim's a cantakerous old man :lol:

     

     

    no it wasnt it was the S model and it was awful, also the trim was falling to bits, not enough legroom and it wasnt a patch on my 350z...The only reason to buy a boxster is that you havent enough cash to buy a proper Porsche :blush:

     

    in fact the Boxster I has use of for a few weeks only hit the road twice in all the time I had it, it was that awful to drive after the 350z, also you look a bit of a dick in them (my opinion of course !! :snack: )
