Paul T 350z for SALE---LOWER PRICE--CHECK IT OUT !
Ebized replied to P15UL T's topic in Zeds For Sale
can we expect a unique colour as well?? lol Yeah, come on Paul spill the beans -
I think you will find that is Rosso Red - the same as AK350's Easily the best red Nissan have used on a 350 IMO.

Ignore all those rude types ^^^^ mookstar, we won't bite (well, not often) if you want to tell us a little more - like do you have a ZED/planning to get one/just curious/registered on the wrong forum by mistake - only joking on that last one - they got me at now

subjective, but what's not is it's a bore of a car. A TT being boring is subjective, having measurably less levels of NVH isn't. Not sure how much you have driven a TT and 370 Dan to form a view that it is "miles ahead", but having thoroughly enjoyed two 350's I was keen to see how a 370 performed in comparison before signing up for one and got the opportunity to try 2 different 370's on the road (manual and auto) and one at the Silverstone Acedemy and was quite satisfied it represented a a big step up in all the aspects of a sports car that I value................ within my budget. Neither June or I find the 370 has any noise, vibration or harshness that we find intrusive - only a sense of purpose you expect from such a car. Having carefully selected the Stillen nearly a year back after researching what seemed hundreds of posts on US forums, it has done for the 370 what the Nismo exhaust did for my last 350, made it a true sounding sports car with no adverse affect on cabin noise on long journeys. The one big downside of the 370 is the very tame standard exhaust (as most seem to acknowledge) - I can only describe the difference is really like chalk and cheese. Yes the TT might be seen as a comparable car but from all the reports I have read of road testers that I have high regard for (and who were instrumental in my decision to buy my first 350) it was that the 4 wheel drive tends to kill the driving pleasure, particuarly when you want to indulge in a bit of spirited driving on dry roads. OK, so when it gets wet a TT will be the sensible option but then when I looked deeper - did I really want to make what I would call a sideways step - you know my answer. Yes I too would love a 911 and did consider a Cayman (again having read informed write ups) but money wise to give me what the 370 has it wasn't on unless I got a s/h one with little warranty left - something that is important to me having no garage or wishing to pay big money for fixes. But hey, do you know what convinced me to get a 370, having weighing up all the options - this place. The great community spirit, enjoying some good banter and having made many new good friends and enjoying driving opportunities with like minded members is what really puts the into ZED ownership. No airs and graces, just pure enthusiasts who know they have found a great car of their (realistic) dreams. I find it interesting just how many ex 350 owners remain members on here and regularly contribute on the forum - a sure indication of the high regard they have for one of our generations best sports cars, which for me is carried forward with the 370. OK the purists will say that is no way to make a decsion about car choice. But for me its the whole package, even after 5 years of ZED ownership I still can't wait to get out in GUNS and blow the cobwebs away, see kids taking pics as you pass by and never ending compliments from complete strangers - now that does make it if you are limited to a purchase price up to £30k with a trade-in. No Andrew, you are certainly not alone

That looks really good on the quartz. From what you describe it sounds the same as the one smartmove put on his white 370 (now sold). Somehow I think the gloss looks better on the quartz than it does on white - just my opinion, as I have no regrets about the matt c/f wrap on mine which to my eyes seems well suited with the pearlescent white. One drawback living on a beautiful island eh, shortage of specialist places to help mod your ZED

"The Spaniard's car stopped out on the track towards the end of the session. Ferrari said the engine in the car was at the end of its life and the failure happened two laps earlier than expected. The team had anyway been planning to change Alonso's engine between first and second practice, which starts at 1600 GMT."

Wow, bet that packs a punch

Yep, Nic was at Wales last May - very, very rare pic of her actually cleaning a car, and not hers Although I guess she was repaying Matt for cleaning hers parked next to his
-
heh lol! Will take some better pics when I get chance, but there's some more still up at Pisonheads:- http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/2132535.htm Ian From the PH pics it is definitely a UK car (with the optional Rays then) or someone has gone to an awful lot of trouble and expense to make it look like one Only thing I can see it has and is not UK spec is the reversing sensors Quite often the Fairlady 'tag' gets applied to 350s irrespective of whether they are an import or not. BTW - get yourself along to this: viewtopic.php?f=93&t=42422 and we all give the car a good look over. Easy for you join us at Horsham
-
Thanks for the warm welcome folks - yes it's fitted with a Steel Mate reverse parking sensor like this one:- but with a Japanese voice. I take it that's not standard then? Ian That is definitely not standard - best to post up some more pics of the car - from the rear and close up of guages to fully confirm if UK or not. The you tube clip made me laugh - when it said STOP - was waiting for a another comment to follow, like OUCH
-
Never have fancied something sticking out my rear end either - could do some nasty damage

Happy for you to put what ever you like over Husky's head if it keeps him quiet for a while
-
ah, might be walking then
-
That is one slammed 350, but hey Stew don't tell me you posted that cos of the car or the BMX

Hope you have a good weekend...................and your engines last the race. Hmmm...... all I can say having just booked tickets on a A380 to Oz and back for next year at least the airline I am with isn't using the Rolls Royce engines: Quote from BBC news: Other A380 operators Singapore Airlines, Air France-KLM, Lufthansa and Emirates reportedly said they had no plans to ground their fleets. Many use A380s equipped with jet engines built by a consortium Engine Alliance, unlike the Rolls-Royce motors used on Qantas A380s.

I would have thought wind-up gramaphones were more suited to your stable of cars

Have you done what Lexx said at stages 3, 4, 5? The adaptor can deal with 4 or 5 different phones (from memory) so it should pick yours up. Try and find a quiet spot so you do not pick up other bluetooth devices - I remember trying to do this once in a High Street and the poor old phone nearly died of shock with the number of devices it picked up Make sure you have followed the steps on page 4 of the handbook to make a successful 'pair'. If your car has had a previous owner, have all his phone contacts (max of 50) been deleted - follow the procedure on page 13 in the handbook if not as that may stop new input. Good luck

Here is a link to the handbook istructions, if you do not have one viewtopic.php?f=9&t=39492&hilit=bluetooth&p=594231#p594231

Allegedly, UK 350's have 80 litre tanks whereas JDMs have 70 litre tanks.
