There is 2004 blue coupe at www.evansautos.co.uk (Cheam in Surrey) if you want a comparison. Trusted and reliable outfit (not a Nissan dealer) and I bought both a second-hand and new Z from them .

It was not mine, but rallying in a Mosvitch in the 70's was :scare:y :scare:y :scare:y, although the abuse it took including the odd roll or two with its centre of gravity about 2zillion feet high, didn't exactly make for a comfortable ride!

 

I get a "rndc: connect failed: connection refused" when checking the status, I have tried disabling iptables and the rndc key is used in both rndc.conf and named.conf and google is no help........

 

And this is what happens at the end

Right, i've been and looked again and this is what I have when I scroll through them all (by the way, holding the button down does nothing)

 

1. Temp

2. KM DTE

3. KM per Litre and Av KM per hour

4. Mins and Secs elapsed and KM elapsed

5. H: M: S: (hours mins secs) and lap timer

6. RPM

7. KM/per hour

 

defo no clock with the actual time on it.

 

I have taken photos on my mobile if anyone wants to check.

According to the handbook the clock is between 6 & 7 on your list. It then goes on to say that you need to keep the change button pressed for more than 3 seconds to change the hours/minutes (allow 5 seconds between these to make changes). It also says you need to have the ignition on to make the changes.

Failing that you'll just have to be late like every other woman (only kidding )

I use the P21s on the G and love it:

 

 

 

That looks so wrong, mate. I think you need a sweeping gravel drive to compliment the G now!

 

Mrs Sarnie is on the case

 

apparently now i can afford a £90k car i can afford a £475k house

Lucky if that would buy a garage in London so Mrs Sarnie would still be without her house

Yeah, sorry about that Beavis - an issue I have been discussing with Chris - when I use the 'go back' button I am being dumped off the site and using the refresh is causing the problem - the penny has dropped this morning seeing what happened on this thread.

Good advice from Zzzz - but will you remember it on the road? In my experience there is nothing better than having an 'expert' alongside to give the confidence and its well worth the money. Although I gained some self-taught car control skills from years of competitive autotesting, maxing the road potential of a performance car is another dimension altogther and doing it on your own on the road might be risky. Yeah, by all means have some fun in a quiet private area (we all do that I'm sure ) but that won't give you skills for the road.

In the latest EVO page 061 this training outfit http://www.catdrivertraining.co.uk put in a plug directed at Z drivers - might be worth a try? Perhaps others will know their form or somthing better?

No permanent clock display

 

Am I missing something here because mine defaults to the clock permanently on the righthand circular instrument on top of the dash.

 

It should return to whatever you left it on last.

 

Yep, and rather than having clock on all time. I have the digital speedo on that clock, then just hold the button down to "jump" to clock. Then click once to jump back to where you had it set....... best of both worlds to me, as use the speedo more than the clock!

 

 

Snap Jcko. Tat's exactly what I do. Or I wear a watch.....

 

 

Clock? What clock? On the digital gauge I don't see a clock on mine?

Its the r/h one of the three 'eyes' staring at you from the cente of the car - keep pressing the button with the two interlocking square symbols on the speedo cluster until the clock display turns up (amongst other options) and then use the button with the minus symbol to help adjust the time as its probably still showing the time in Toyko or wherever !

Passed my test in 1965 and bought a 1962 Old English White Mini 850, Reg XPK820 - anyone know it is still going? Be worth a small fortune if it is I guess! Replaced a TV175 Lambretta (probably worth more than the Mini now) - that was seen as by the ladies in that 'mod' era although if you had said 'cool' then everyone be thinking you meant -

Ah, those were...........

even the new bonnet bulge has grown on me.

I'm ever so sorry to hear that

I just met Dave Grohl

 

Who is he?

 

Glad it wasn't just me

+ another ..glad I'm not the only one scratching my head

That's a relief, thought I was going to be

Kuro asked:

Oh, and what's the black bit that's out of shot, is this the mike for the phone..?

SPOT ON!

What age groups does the 350z attract and what age group buys? Just wondered if the young are starting to buy second hand 350z's and what kind of image the car gives these days? How would a 40 year old look driving a Z?

We know the Z gives one of the best drives, £ 4 £, and if you enjoy driving rather than getting from A to B, I can assure you that even at the ripe old age of 59 that you still want a great drive before the next wheels - becomes necessary (or worse still a Micra!!)

Welcome Jeny - nice to see another southerner on board

cool wasnt sure if the oil consumption was a general problem or one off on the newer models. Look forward to the pics, Im 15 mins from Thurrock lakeside otherside of the Dartford Tunnel Keep your eyes peeled for a modified Kuro Black 350z

5k miles on my 296 engine and still waiting to do an oil top-up - so maybe its a running-in thing that has caused probs for others?

I can see the paintshield lines

 

You'll be seeing stars if you dont watch it!

oh oh, its another porsche v lambo contest - they should have stuck to their Zs so they have nothing to prove!

(Have to admit I'd love 'em both, for different reasons. I'll just have to keep plugging away at the lottery)

Rain! - I do like to have the window open, (if only to enjoy the noise I'm making and sod the ), but not the un-invited shower that comes along even when its hardly raining and the need to have the air con on if I want to stay dry and see where I'm going

Yeah, the Z is by no means unique with this issue and its an inherent prob with many cars and I wouldn't want roof gutters etc spoiling the loooooooooks. Balancing that small whinge against performance/value for money and sheer driving pleasure that my pocket can afford, I was really struggling to find something worth mentioning other than my earlier post that I wish I could find more time to be out driving and invoking the odd or two ;) .

10 from me

Aw come on Kev, the worst thing about the Zed for you is that its no longer on your drive!

 

That's the worse thing for me - when it is on the drive and bloody work stops me driving it!

like pigs do this Sarnie
