  1. I'm looking at some 19" wheels for the z, does anybody know what the offset would be for 8.5 fronts and 10.5 rears? I'm guessing the americans are right on their site at +25 front and +32 rear
  2. This should definately be sorted, i'll be well up for hopefully in just a few weeks. Somewhere Central maybe Maidstone?
  3. As titled, out in the mpv and spotted a very nice GT4, stopped and spoke to him-because the wheels threw me off as to whether it was an 06 or import Nice guy and girl and love it to bits oh and i was wrong, i realised i hadn't seen a GT4 before and now i know.
  4. Thanks for that fellas didn't realise there would be a over it I suppose that there only worth what people want to pay. But i'll try my luck with price around the £1k mark Next question which tyres are best for my new wheels as people seem to put down the bridgestones?
  5. I'm thinking about putting some bigger wheels on my car when i collect it. This would mean that i'll have a set of brand new 18"Rays wheels for sale with brand new manufacturers tyres guessing bridgestones. Does anybody know what these will fetch roughly? I've had a scout around and not found anything to compare with. Many Thanks
  6. Thanks for the replys The 20's do look very nice and i may have to make a purchase, only thing is now to choose a wheels that you don't need to rob a cash depot to buy Been in contact with bigwheels4u and hes very handy to know, the only concern is that if i'm gonna replace the standard Rays-they need to be replaced with good quality wheels for resale value. i've found sleeping ok at the mo although i'm normally terrible the night before but being in front of the pc at work-i just can't stop lookin at 350z stuff and i'm not gettin much done Also bought a Navara which is due end of march(through sainsburys) so got that'll be two sleepless nights and even less work done
  7. Managed to get my 06 roadster ordered today, computer says it'll be in the dealership 13th March Bought Ebisu Black Met with GT pack, Sat Nav, Parking Sensors but unfortulately no Alezan interior available until 30th June so went with Charcoal Leather. Hopefully ready for collection week later and can't wait. It states that std kit now incudes rays and extra 20bhp which represents only £800 increase in price for what amounts to £1700 worth of value. Heres what the bulltin highlights- Interior- New Centre console and door panel design. Additional Storage Areas. Improved ergonomics. New Satellite Navigation System(Optional). Blue tooth phone integration(Coupe Only). Exterior- Restyled Front Bumper. New Front Headlamp design. new LED technology for rear headlamps and side markers. Std Rays 18" Forged Wheels. Engine- 300PS/6400rpm. Colours- New metallic Ebisu Black (replacing solid Kuro Black). New metallic Universal Silver (replacing Blade Silver). Question Time! Was Cruise Available on previous Roadsters? Does anybody have an opinion as whether 19's or 20's are better for ride? Would 20's make the brakes look small?
  8. Blimey ordered in october I thought i'd been waiting a while! It's a bit of a rollercoaster of emotion, right now i'm in the tunnel, upside down feeling rather sick and looking forward to some plain sailing
  9. Thanks for all your responses fellas I'm looking into the clear 3m strips for protection then, i'm thinking this would surely provide tougher protection than any polish or wax. Has anyone attempted to fit these themselves or would i be better off paying for it?
  10. Hi Azure I've been told first in the country will be beginning of April and that mine should on one of the first trucks. Only trouble with that is that i havn't yet given my required spec because the order bank is not open. So basically i'm fingers crossed for the order bank to open soon(and they have my money waiting) Did you manage to negotiate any discount? See You
  11. Whilst Discussing my purchase the salesman suggested that i have their Supagard protection for the whole car. It costs around £300. Wondered whether or not anybody else has had this and if so whether it was worth it? Failing that any other good products out there for long term protection?
  12. Hi there just thought i'd add what i know about the 2006 350z. The interior will be made with softer materials, re-positioned heated seat controls, revised look centre console with factory sat-nav option(same nav as pathfinder), cup-holders in the doors, speed sensitive power steering, bluetooth was mentioned for the stereo system, revised front headlamps to include LED side lights and bi-zenon main, slight alterations to front bumper area, LED rear stop lights, revised camshaft profiles and variable exhaust timing to help 300bhp but slightly less torque spread over larger rev band. Apparently standard kit for GT will include Rays. If i can find the paperwork from the dealer i'll update any other bits i've missed so even though i've placed a deposit i'm not sure entirely the price or options Still whatever it is hopefully it'll be here soon
  13. Seen two around crawley industrial, silver coupe with private reg twice and a quick glance at blue coupe with nismo bodykit-nice
  14. Thanks for the rapide(skodas version of fast) welcome I'm definately looking forward to taking delivery and i've been told although the order bank is not open i'll be the first hopefully in april to get one I'm really excited because there don't appear to be so many around here and my girlfriend reckons she'll enjoy driving it to work Hope to see some of you at a meeting one day although i just checked and they seem to be a few miles from here. Right then bed
  15. Hi to everyone, Just placed the order for a 350z with my local garage, 2006 model yr roadster. Thought i'd sign up to see if there are any meets etc in Kent My names davegti which sort of stuck from school when i was the first to get a car and then proceeded to drive like a crazy 17yr fella. I now drive like a crazyish 26yr fella and live in a nice rural place called Gillingham Still owning a Subaru Impreza although its up for sale to help pay some of the 350z costs Anyway see you all later i'm off for some....sleep
