Jacko

I know what he's getting. A little bird told me.

 

The wait was worth it for yours Ian, they look stunning.

 

Having thought about it, the GT4 wheels dont seem to do bad on ebay, certainly would offset the expense of new wheels, but I really like the GT4 wheel, so dont think I will be changing.

Bet you won't like em so much when the new car comes out as thats the standard wheel!

It will be sooooooo common

4 months!!!!!!!

 

I'm hoping mine will be here before the end of the month

 

We're not!

 

Where have you ordered from Sarnie? States or somewhere here?

 

Japan via funkstyling on here

Ah ok mate, once you can let the cat out of the bag about what you bought, be interested to know how it worked out and cost etc.....

I'm on the look out again. But not paying stupid UK prices!

4 months!!!!!!!

 

I'm hoping mine will be here before the end of the month

We're not!

Where have you ordered from Sarnie? States or somewhere here?

Was supposed to be 6-8 weeks but the Rays factory closed for about 3 weeks at christmas so taking out the delay for christmas it wasnt too far off the estimated time, will change sig in a mo

Ha ha ..... which school did you go to?

8+3= 16??

Anyway, they here now!

Got them from Envy Performance, Took nearly 4 months to arrive but its definatley worth the wait.

 

Cost was about 2k offsets are +22

 

Id love to be coming on the Wales drive but unfortunatley have to work to pay off the wheels

Jesus! 4 months!

Get your sig changed as well, no more waiting!

Was looking at last months Evo mag as well. Its gone on Sale in Japan for 25% more than a standard Zed......

No mechanical upgrades to engine etc, just a new Nismo exhaust and cosmetics. Seems bloody expensive!

Nice wheels

where you get em from in the end then, shipped direct from states or somewhere else?

Why don't you come on the Wales drive out and show us in person!

Not sure if this has been mentioned but.....

I like the front, not sure on the back though!

Nice splitter though.....

Stop worrying!

Have faith, I've booked it!

It will be dry, with a little bit of sun breaking out for good photos now and again......

I wouldn't let you all down

hi missed front wing badge on ebay,bloody internet,anyone got a spare.

a headlamp washer bottle would be nice,and plastic covers for under engine.cheers

I may have one hanging around mate. I'll try to take a look when I get chance.

PM me for details etc..... and to remind me!

Normally depends on what order we leave the services car park in! So it will get mixed up a bit - Jacko will be leading the way though.

 

If any attendees want to PM me their mobile number for addition to the list that will be distributed, please do so - I can then put the list together prior to the event.

Yeah, I was planning to add to the sheets that I've done for the last two drives by adding all the new numbers and names to. Then we give them out so at least everyone has a copy. I was planning to send out an email to all to ask for confirmation of numbers (will probably send to all just to confirm that none of the originals have changed numbers).

I'll collate them on a spreadsheet and print out copies and of the map etc. So if anyone wants to send mobile numbers to me, then fine but just make sure you respond to the PM I'll send you.

Chris if anyone sends to you, then just make sure you get to me etc if you want. We can sort between us......

going back to the original topic... I found the following information

(www.nissanpress.co.uk) seems quite comprehensive.

 

technical spec in pdf format

http://www.nissanpress.co.uk/nissan/pre ... chspec.pdf

 

marketing blurb...and pretty photos...

http://www.nissanpress.co.uk/nissan/pre ... Z_pack.htm

 

for general 350Z stuff and official information

 

http://www.nissanpress.co.uk/nissan/index.html

yeah but the marketing blurb about 350z is for last years model!

I know it won't help this situation, but thats why my car is always locked at all opporunities.

As soon as the filler cap shuts, its locked and keys in my pocket. Too much of this going on now....... you gotta treat everyone like a criminal!

Just a thought could someone stick up the meeting point and time etc, at the first post point so it's easy to find

Done Tim. Quick and dirty version done on 1st post!

Yes we cannot change the event now, but i think new ideas are needed, i have some thoughts of my own but for now i will keep them till discussion. One point i will raise and it might be controversial is that i am a little worried about the amount of non 350 zeds wanting to come. I dont have a problem with former members like kev with his bmw but just a little worried about others tagging along. If we allow everyone to come then things could get a little out of control. Most zed members i have met seem fine decent people who are sensible. i just dont want to get into a situation where we invite people who may be not quite as sensible.....hence ruining the day and after all this is a 350z day out. Just my thoughts thats all, because with the amount of cars turning up we dont want any silly incidents. On a lighter note i may bring along a brand new carbon front spoiler cover, i won it on ebay but i am not convinced it works with the yellow...........i might hold a mini auction for it

 

Fair point Beavis, have to admit that I'd not given this much thought until now as we not had anyone ask up till very recently. I don't include Kev in this "non zeds" as I think he's the exception as hes a former Zed owner up til recently and a still a regular contributor.

 

I think the best way forward now is that we will NOT let anymore non Zeds on the drive now or in the future ones to ease worries about this and stop it getting out of control as well.

I would suggest that seeing as Tim Barks has already confirmed then we honour it this time. Also I'm assuming that Mini has asked his friend with the MX5 by now, therefore I'm thinking it would only be fair for us to still let him come if he still wants to. But I guess Mini that if you haven't told/asked him yet then might be better not to now.....

 

Anyway thats just my inital thoughts for now. I'll see what the rest of the mods think and sure we'll discuss on here anyway...

 

I agree entirely

 

If my mate doesn't speak to me about this I won't remind him and/or if he does remember still want to come them he can sit next to me in a proper car! It'll save him on petrol anyway and he can pay towards mine instead

Thanks Mini, that works well

Just please let me know then if you end up being +1!

Perhaps we should engage the owners of whatever establishments we visit also, as they may have some suggestions on how we can work with the landlords/owners to ensure our arrival in quiet villages does not cause disturbance or disruption.

Yeah to be fair though, we only crawl through Bala as its so busy anyway. Much more fun that way anyway!

Thats also why we park at the lake normally as the pub isn't a big enough car park to accomodate us all and certainly not this many!

Thats a nice rear end on that car......

Wassit?

Yeah, no worries Jacko.

 

He's kind of indesicive hence he's driving an MX5!!!!!!!!!!

ha ha .... ok, well I think the hairdressers spot is at the back of the line!

You've got me thinking now!!!!

 

It was on the M42 Stratford direction.

 

By the way, how do you reduce the size of files to attach for your profile? Everything I have saved on my machine seems to be too large to attach!!!

Mini,

Have a look in the FAQ section as there are multiple questions about how.

Here's a thread that explains though http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1230

Spotted today 05 Kuro passing hopwood services, I waved as you cruised up beside me. I waved, you ignored me!!!

Which Hopwood Services? Where are they? Just wondering if you meant another one near me..... but wasn't me as I don't own a black un

He is not a definate at the moment so leave him off the list for now. If he does come he'll be alone. His name is sex pest......watch out blue lady!!!!

Ok mate, just try to let me know before the time though as need to confirm numbers with Pub as they already been very understanding with the numbers on a Sunday, so don't want to muck them about too much.

Try and confirm with him asap so we can get on list etc and know he's coming.....

Would there be any problems my mate coming along for the blast in his MX5?

No Probs Mini. You just need to let us know his/her name and whether you are both +1 or not?

Can stick him (or her) down on list then.....

Stevie_350z confirmed to me as well!

since when have I had a chilli red 350z???

 

Sorry - my mistake, I was trying to fill out the colours - I did a few searches to try and find out who had what. Ill correct it. Think its Blade going from the sig?

Already done it Chris!
