  1. Another cheeky one - but at least he got one digit right
  2. That's good - I'm sure Nissan will be taking note
  3. 84? and him?
  4. Would you like me press the BIG BAN button Hugh after that post
  5. Ebized

    Wow!

    Why thank you, kind sir
  6. Welcome to the forum 6mt nice to have another 370 owner on board And if that TimGSXR gives you any more grief I have that banning button close to hand to oblige his banning request
  7. I wouldn't disagree with you - proportionally they are too big and strangely the rear view seems more restricted than I found in the 350 - to the point I have read some are concerned that there is something of a blind spot. I've not found the rear view myself an issue (yet) but its almost the case that I'm looking for it - if that makes sense
  8. especially if you are a short arse, I guess
  9. That's a nice result you have got - as yet it is not clear if the ECU over this side of the pond will allow the gains you are getting - once the car is run-in and I get it on the dyno will see if that justifies the outlay. Just getting the cat-back system meant FedX were better off to the tune of $430 and with another $200 or so on taxes when it arrives here we are paying "through the nose" as they say so I want to be sure any gains are going to be worthwhile
  10. And there's me waiting to see the Smart outdrag the Lambo.....but he gets another result
  11. I am finding the 275/35 much more slippery than the standard 245/45 m8... now i v got loads of front end grip as on 245/35 but the back end is v twitchy.... whats the camber sitting like? could be its running on an edge instead of flat? same cambers on rays and the grip was amazing m8. its 2.50 ish f and 2.20 ish rear. Its worse on wet and dry...then again loads of grit (salt actually) on the road so cant 100% comment yet. You sure its not just your right foot getting heavier When I changed from 245's to 275's and new tyres suddenly there was a whole more lot of grip but as the rears wore so the grip lessened and it was case of tempering the loud pedal knowing the font tyres were still giving high levels of grip.
  12. Welcome to the forum I'm surprised you have not found most the answers by a search and with that list it is going to take someone a fair amount of time to help you, (and no one gets paid on here ) so if you have since found some of the answers you are looking for you can go back into your post and edit it.
  13. Keyless entry simply means you unlock with the fob but you need the key in the ignition to start the car etc and the 350's have keys as in your 2nd pic. The 370's also have keyless ignition (a button to start etc) and use a fob similar to your first pic. But each have the ability to be accessed by the key (and in the case of the 370 to also be stated with the key that slides into the fob). One of the gripes with the 350's that Nissan didn't even provide a 'flip' key design
  14. Then get those tyres changed - you are missing what a ZED is all about if that is the feedback you are getting on the road
  15. Trawl back throught the hundreds of threads on tyres on here and you will find it hard to find anyone to say a good word about the 040's, after experiencing the alternatives. The 050's are much better (standard fit on late 350's and now the 370's) and some prefer their characteristics to the Falkens or Toyos. If your budget does not stretch to MPS's then go for the Falkens, Toyos or 050A Stones as having seen umpteen postings over the last 5 years on tyres they have been the clear favourites. Got the hint
  16. Where did you get your tyres fitted Andy as you are not a million miles from neo-ninja and I might need to make use at sometime in the near future Did they have rim protection gear on their fitting machines?
  17. see sometimes i just dont understand insurance. Im 25, 4 years no claims and i went through chris knott and mine is £911, just renewed it on saturday! Fair enough if i stayed in a crappy place, but my town was once voted 1st best place to stay in scotland and 3rd in the uk, with 0% crime rate. About 60% of people are pensioners 20% young ones and the other 20% is holiday houses. i dont think i could live in a safer town. I also shopped about going through bell, direct line and the usual comparison websites and that was the cheapest one! unreal!! You answered your own question... one of those pensioners is bound to hit you in their Honda Jazz I just mentioned that to my wife - she said if you would care to pm your address to us based on that comment she will come round her Jazz and oblige, and if she misses I won't There ain't many advantages of getting old, but one is cheaper car insurance, and I am paying less than half what you are for a 370 that is Group 19E - so the chances are, in the insurance companies eyes, is that your car is more likely to be clouted by a younger driver than an older one
  18. welcome to the forum and 370 ownership Looks like you will be making some of our traders happy, but if they can't help I found Stillen provided a great service in getting their exhaust to me viewtopic.php?f=103&t=31681)
  19. Did you have the ice warning showing in the pod, because from what you have described it sounds like you hit some black ice and yes, the traction control and ABS were working overtime to save your neck. Glad you and the car survived OK
  20. Oi! Can you keep your white stuff up north and not send it down 'ere - again
  21. Don't worry Colin, I've got you covered: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/howaboutthat/2118092/Worlds-most-expensive-handbag-unveiled.html and its no bigger that most of her purses - think I am safe there - over
  22. More seriously, as Stillen are in the US will the design allow fitment onto a r/h drive model anyway?
  23. Stop putting these tempters up
  24. Looks good - can you give us a summary of how the day panned out - time there, number of laps etc - I could be tempted to join you next time
  25. Ersen/Riz You might be best off pm-ing ZMANALEX, unless by chance he has revisted this thread
