  1. Will watch with interest how this progresses. This thread might help the weight reduction ideas : viewtopic.php?f=25&t=55133&p=795848#p795848 (I'm always one for not 're-inventing wheels' when its not necessary, and searching MrLizard's threads might be helpful )

  4. I'm finding we are certainly not alone They better own up soon or it will be name and shame time Don't think it matters whether it is 350 or 370 ownership, personally

  12. Dont get a Nismo for the '70 if thats what you're looking at, they dont sound anywhere near as good as they do for the 350z Save loads of dosh and get Stillen/Berk/etc I use IE and this is what I see - as Chris says the only obvious issue is that three of the titles get cut short [attachment=0]Tarmac IE issue.jpg[/attachment] opening several of the individual exhaust systems just led to in most cases

  16. I'm a bit sceptical as to whether these will work on the 19" OEM 370 rims. Unlike the 350 Rays/Nismos that have a pronounced lip to help the protectors 'grip' the 370 wheels are flat faced which suggests to me the tyres would have to be removed to get a large enough area for them to 'grip'? You can see from the rim design, when used with tyres that have rim protectors as in the pic above, they already offer a little protection. Yes, I have seen kerb damaged 370 rims but in my experience the 370 rims are a little less prone than the 350 ones. Yeah, I have maybe been lucky so far not to have any kerb damage in the 2 years I have had the 370, but when parking I always make a point of coming in at reasonably acute angle first so that the rear tyre hits the kerb which, with the mirror I have angled to see the rear wheel area, helps to find the distance from the kerb and then a forward shunt putting the lock hard on so again the front tyre hits the kerb lets me know I am close enough in before straightening the car. Not easy when spaces are tight -I agree, but has worked so far
