  1. They are only available on GT4 cars and on all models OUTSIDE the UK. And they are most likely heaver than the 19s Si has!!

     

    the ones available outside the UK are different wheels mate :) similar but different

     

    Yeah they are a combination (looks) of those and the optional Rays that you got on the pre-06 cars. Similar spoke design, but with the little squares on and a whole lot lighter....

  2. Welll i've just GONE AND DONE IT !!!!! :yahoo::yahoo::yahoo:

     

    My local dealer was able to haggle with the guys down in Birmingham and were able to get the 54 Azure with Nismo kit up here for me and kept my trade-in price for my car the SAME !!!??? That one is still baffling me - as most of the time dealers will give one price for your car based on one vehicle and if you decide on a cheaper car then they will give you an offer of much less on your car etc. etc.

     

    Anyway it's costing me hardly anything to go from my brick to a new (to me) Z and i won't have to travel to pick it up - plenty of driving to be done anyway once i get my hands on it up in the Highlands ! :thumbs::thumbs::thumbs::teeth::teeth:

     

    Probably be about 2 weeks for them to get it here .. now officially THE longest two weeks in history !!!! :wacko:

     

    So .. the next Scottish meet - when's that then !?

     

    Well that is fantastic news!

     

    I've got a kind offer.... how about I go pick it up for you from Brum and then drive it all the way up to bonnie Scotland for ya?

     

    I'll even wash it on the way! ;)

  3. What reg and spec is it??

     

    Who you dealing with - I had a guy called Gavin (a Kiwi).

     

    Good guy and I got a good deal. :D

     

    Oh and to the rest of the forum - hello. I've been lurking for a while so thought its about time I made a post.

     

    Keep up the good work fellas - this site is so helpful :thumbs:

     

    Hi mate, welcome to the forum! :thumbs:

     

    Get yourself on the welcome page and introduce yourself properly!

     

    we like to hear about your car and pics go down a treat! :yahoo:

  4. Hello!

     

    My name is Geoff (aka Kahuna) and just found this site so I thought I'd say hi to you all :)

     

    I've had my 350z for almost 3 weeks and it is suberb :drive1

     

    :welcome: Geoff!!

     

    Glad you found us and welcome to the site. Fire away with all your comments and questions... ... oh and tell us about your car and get some pics up! :thumbs:

  5. sorry should have done a search before I posted this. Thanks for the tips, I'll have a look and see what cradle options there are...

     

    its ok mate, sorry that wasn't meant to sound off.

     

    Btw, if it's an '06 that you got, then get down to your dealer and demand your BT adapter FOC.

     

    If its not, then you still wanna get a BT adapter to fit the kit. Don't bother buying one of the "1976 phone" cradles......

     

    :thumbs:

  6. I just hope i dont get a yellow one

     

    [runs and hides from sarnie]

     

    No chance of that mate, only 75 other UY in the country B)

     

    You'll just have to settle for a bog standard blue or summat :thumbdown::yuck::p

    lol, actually i really love the UY, but its as rare as being stung by a ray off the coast of Oz. (bad taste i know)

     

    Its not if you look at Pistonheads regularly, there is always a GT4 up for sale, a lot of the time a UY! :)

  7. Not sure if it's a gorrila or maybe chewbaca but with a shaved hand. Maybe part of a cunning disguise......

     

    God! Its just clicked! .....

     

    I reckon thats Sarnie! ..... thats why he never comes to any of the meets so far, he is scared that we will take the mickey! :teeth:

     

    I was at the Gumball, where was you? :p

     

    Ooooh hark at you, found yourself at one meeting huh? Was it dry that day? :boxing:

     

    I'm still waiting to see what day you pull out from the Wales rideout on....?

     

    You know it MIGHT be raining that day? Or you just having a shave? :p

  8. Nissan are offering 48hr test drives on the zed. Its a promo thing. Leave it on the drive mate, its not yours and its insured.

     

    Bloody ell, didn't know that...... must be getting desperate. Perhaps their extortionate dealers aren't making enough profit on aftercare, therefore they need to start pushing some more cars? ;)

  9. :teeth::teeth: Managed to circumvent the problem by shutting down the Check Point Integrity Flex progam ( temporarily :ninja: ). Guess there may be a setting in there that I can play with but I have a work around until I find it....

    Thanks again for your help guys...

    Syl

     

    ok but just be aware that you are opening your machine up to risk, whilst you do this. I'd reenable everytime you don't need to use the iTunes software. Additionally, they may be able to tell remotely that you machine doesn't have the software enabled so keep it to a min. Don't have it shut down all the time or you asking for trouble and might have to explain why you shut it down etc.......

     

    Just keep to a minimum and you will probably be ok.... :)

  10. I've been quoted £252 by Dan Perkins in Slough when supplying my own oil....hmmm do they change the air filter at a P2? I have a JWT pop charger which obviously won't get changed, more money off the service?!

     

    Kenny,

    Tells you in the manual what is involved in each service........ I need to read as well :)

  11. I just went tot he website and the oil is 47.99, am i missing something?

     

    Yes you get a forum discount. PM Opie Oils from here and get a discount code...... :thumbs:

     

    Yeah I just realised that, I had a code it is now at £42.99 must have gone up

     

    That sounds about right..... mine was about £38, but that was with me picking it up at JAE, no delivery.....

  12. Oh yes Jacko I know, I was just saying that these were my 2 choices and I decided to try out the Silkolene first.....

     

    aye fair enough, thought so, just thought I would check. Btw, let me know how much your P2 is as I'm just about to start ringing around. I'm in the same boat, got my own oil..... ;)

  13. I got the Silkolene Pro S 5W40 from Opie Oils, £37.79 including postage. Excellent service. I'll probably be trying the Amsoil Synthetic next service though.

     

    Kennyc, you do know that the Silkolene is fully synthetic as well don't you? (just in case, as I read your above statement a certain way.....)

  14. ....so I'll be supllying 5litres of Silkolene, do you think they'll return the 300ml that's left in the can? I work that out to be £2.27 worth, if they don't I'll be wanting that off my bill :wiggle:

     

    When you hand over the keys, tell them that you want the left over back for top ups. Then it helps you to feel better about the fact they have actually put YOUR oil in the car? :thumbs:

  15. Iam sorry but the evo rally car is completly different from the road car about a few hundred thousand pounds different and if you watched top gear you would have seen the fq 340 go round the track a fraction of a second slower than the fq 400 the only place a 2 litre car is fast with a big laggy turbo is the drag strip.

    If you had read my first thread properly you would have seen my bro was only running a bar and not the 1.6 bar needed to produce 380bhp and a sub 4 0-60.

    Its no good just repeating information you have read if you dont know what the **** your on about.

     

    Easy tiger :surrender:

     

    Yeah exactly..... Calm down mate, (Where's my big scouse emoticon, the one with the big wig and tash!, crap Liam must have took it on hols)....

     

    Remember mighty Z that forums like these are all about opinions etc and sometimes the way people write a post and the way it comes across doesn't always exactly what they are trying to say.

     

    So please don't get too offended if someone disagrees...... ;)
