  1. You've been lingering in Mothercare too long
  2. But seeing that vid I see that L/H drive model wears a 370Z emblem at the rear and not the Fairlady one - are they dropping the 'Fairlady' badging elsewhere too? Thinking about it the Fairlady tag, it does not seem to fit with the testosterone pumping ZED, me thinks
  3. If you let on as to where you are based perhaps someone local to you on here who has a bluetooth adaptor can see if fits/works with your car. A pic of the cradle you have might also help confirm the answer you are looking for?
  4. Thought I had seen Sarnie post up on this thread (perhaps it was a similar one) that there is no 3 year warranty on an import, but I'll mention that now. And I tend to agree with Zummertor the 'skipping' CD issue does seem to be a design fault allowing the condenstation and no doubt why Nissan have never really owned up as that would be a total recall. No big deal as far as I concerned - the best music on the move is the sound the car makes. Only time I tend to use the CD's is on motorways and by then the condensation has dried away.
  5. Yeah thats some good points! guess there must be a way of turning that off? would be good on a serious drive but could be a pain day to day, dont need to rev on down changes on a drive to tesco if you knoew what i mean From the vids I've watched you have to turn it on. One thing that worries me is that it doesnt replace heel toe. The point of heel toe, is to match the engine revs to the drive train, but also keep maintainence throttle on so that you are ready to modulate it. With this, it will blip the throttle for you, but then you will still have to swap your foot from the brake to the throttle at some point, at which point you might unbalance the car by having a little engine braking and then increase in throttle as you try to put it back on again. I think this could unsettle the car exactly when you dont want it to. I'll keep my own heel toe thanks +1 on the option. The organ throttle pedal will also help the heel and toe option (takes me back to Beetle days ) but quite nice to have the electronic option when just cruising and you can still enjoy the 'blip' on the downshifts and even when you chose to miss out a cog or two ...nice
  6. Quite a vid (with sound!) but shame about the car colour choice - don't worry at the start it is about the 370......... http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=l2QcGdYaz ... re=related
  7. AS A POST MARCH 2006 OWNER CAN THIS THREAD BE DELETED PLEASE Reckon I will find the value of my 56 ZED will be slipping below a late 55 plate ZED the way things are going
  8. Welcome back Phil - when I heard you got a Brucie bonus on the way back from Godalming I didn't realise you meant a dose of his lurg Hope you are feeling better
  9. This thread might help : http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic ... =bluetooth
  10. Reposessed/stolen recovered affecting the price? + base intereior spec not for everybody but ideal for modding and to include a leather upgrade in red? (Digsy: Just thinking that red is also a must for your part of the world )
  11. Brings back memories with Walter Rohl and the likes flying those Quattros through the forests. And back up to date on the way to the Hoon when we we did a little divert via Honsiton and Hard Knott: not exactly ideal roads for ZED but always a good challenge
  12. Welcome to the forum and you are speaking our kinnd of language How about this a starter - great price for a 2006 UK GT - no nismo rear ring but that can easily be had separately http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/718206.htm
  13. I think you are right - Stevie is just giving us a fair chance to persuade him to stay with us - after all you said goodbye to your second Zed recently and looking at your own thread, we now seeing you looking to buy a nearly new one Once a ZED man difficult to let go - look at Sarnie - had two and then a Lambo, but he just keeps coming back and threatening to buy his third
  14. Yep you are probably right as I reckon you've done everyone else's head in on here
  15. Next he will be posting the flame throwing vid again
  16. Then I don't like his taste in handbags and necklaces and he is a hell of a short arse 2007 (296bhp) import with 2 previous owners. Wrong bhp quoted. Colour wouldn't be my first choice, but its OK imo. (Edit: Beavis - I think you are right) (Edit again: no Beavis you are wrong ) Highest bidder looks like s/he is moving up from a m/c If it is a genuine sale - a bit of reverse physiology going I reckon, could be a good bargain for someone And yep, think I spotted a blonde hair on the cloth seats
  17. Despite using a magnifying glass I still can't make out the make of the 'spacer' used in your avatar
  18. Great news Martin Guess you have got to get the instrcution manual out now as its been so long since you last used it. Especially now Liz dosen't have to read the maps on the run-outs and can concentrate on taking the picces
  19. And if he says so believe it - doubt there's anyone around here knows any more about the build of a roadster than Alex! Pic of him in his fully sorted 600bhp roadster at Knockhill
  20. Snippet from Autocar: Nissan reps also explained how the new 370Z manual blips the throttle for you on downshifts. "It works in tandem with wheel speed sensors and switches in the gate of each of the car's gears. When shifting from sixth to fourth, it works out how many rpm you'll need and dials them up automaticallly. But if you rather heel-and-toe, you can switch it off." hmmmmm..... liking this car more. Have to forget what the rear end looks like as the driving experience is sounding rather good.
  21. These are genuine clips from English council complaint letters - so read and enjoy how others put their thoughts into words. 1. My bush is really overgrown round the front and my back passage has fungus growing in it. 2. He's got this huge tool that vibrates the whole house and I just can't take it anymore. 3. It's the dogs mess that I find hard to swallow. 4. I want some repairs done to my cooker as it has backfired and burnt my knob off. 5. I wish to complain that my father hurt his ankle, very badly, when he put his foot in the hole in his back passage. 6. And their 18 year old son is continually banging his balls against my fence. 7. I wish to report that tiles are missing from the outside toilet roof. I think it was bad wind the other night that blew them off. 8. My lavatory seat is cracked, where do I stand? 9. I am writing on behalf of my sink, which is coming away from the wall. 10. Will you please send someone to mend the garden path? My wife tripped and fell on it, yesterday, and now she is pregnant. 11. I request permission to remove my drawers in the kitchen. 12. 50% of the walls are damp, 50% have crumbling plaster and 50% are plain filthy. 13. I am still having problems with smoke in my new drawers. 14. The toilet is blocked and we cannot bath the children until it is cleared. 15. Will you please send a man to look at my water; it is a funny colour and not fit to drink. 16. Our lavatory seat is broken in half and is now in three pieces. 17. I want to complain about the farmer across the road; every morning at 6am his **** wakes me up and it's now getting too much for me. 18. The man next door has a large erection in the back garden, which is unsightly and dangerous. 19. Our kitchen floor is damp. We have two children and would like a third, so please send someone round to do something about it. 20. I am a single woman living in a downstairs flat and would you please do something about the noise made by the man on top of me every night. 21. Please send a man with the right tool to finish the job and satisfy my wife. 22. I have had the clerk of works down on the floor six times, but I still have no satisfaction.
  22. me too!
  23. That money woould get you this, if it is still available http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... %26ps%3D42 Don't be put off by the advertised price
  24. Pics of Cavey's set up if you want any installation details better ask him Sreen pic was the rear view from the camera - camera location is obvious.
