  1. All very true I'm sure, but when new the z4m costs at least £10k more............
  2. They are RS_FUTURA When i put the tyre size in a tyre calculator. the ones that are fitted are closer in diameter than a 30 profile front would be! confused I'm sorry but you can visually see the difference in the front to rear tyre aspect ratio...........also the rears look too skinny without lowering, imo.........
  3. We haven't had the my BMW,Elise,Cossie,Motorbike,House,Job,Hair is better than yours posts for a while..............
  4. When is this released? Loved COD4, it was a bit too easy though........
  5. Sorry if I've missed it somewhere, but is that the end of the 350z then? It would suggest so as I can't see the point in them running two similar models side by side. Why not make something like a 390Z with about 385bhp for about £39k or so.......really stick it up the TT and boxters tail pipes

  7. Any guestimates on cost?
  8. The point is though, a 430 has LC, use it, **** up your car and YOU foot the bill, just the same as Nissan. If you read on fchat or clubscuderia, NO-ONE dares to us the LC for fear of breaking their car. LC is there, ready for them to use, but they don't because Ferrari wouldn't pick up the bill. I don't see how this is any different to Nissan's stance?
  9. Even I'm tired of this.......................... And I love a good keyboard fight
  10. The thing is i wouldn't use launch control whether it was covered or not, as I wouldn't want to **** up my car. When you've owned a G you get used to not being able to launch from the lights, well not if you don't want to be hit with a huge clutch bill. I bought my car knowing I couldn't launch it from the lights and accepted the risks associated with it. Its a simple equation: GT-R - VDC = No warranty if it breaks. The press are the ones lauding the performance figures of the GT-R but what they haven't tested is the long term reliability of the car under intense driving, as some people are now finding out..... If I was a dealer principle and a broken GT-R came to me to be fixed and the data log said it had been given a hard life, with the VDC off and launched on numerous occassions, i wouldn't cough up for his doughnuts in McDonalds car parks.........

    why?

    Me too....... Me too.......................................
  12. But its not provided as standard, thats the point Sorry to disagree but it is standard - it is no different to traction control buttons or any other feature that can be used or otherwise by an owner - if the facility exists as fitted from the factory and without adding to or subtracting from the car's specification, then it is a standard item there to be used. It is for Nissan to prove abuse (i.e racing etc) for the warranty to be void. And note what Phil said who is probably the best placed to comment: A number of customers with UK orders have letters of confirmation that the warranty will not be invalidated by turning off the VDC. I read it but i wonder if you read it? Of course VDC is standard. Launch control is not standard which is what this thread is about. Turning VDC off does not void the warranty, which is obvious and don't need Phil to confirm. Turning off the VDC, thrashing your car via launch control or anyother method and then breaking it, will void the warranty.
  13. Mark you must have more prices than an Argos catalogue. PMSL
  14. I must say, i'm very underwhelmed so far with this car..............
  15. But its not provided as standard, thats the point
  16. Nothing special at the moment, I'm keeping my money in my bank (Where its not exactly safe there at the moment either) rather than cars as used prices are dropping like stones and working in the financial services industry, the short term future is not great at the moment......
  17. I'm usually the one in shorts and flip flops even when its raining Theres a few of them around!! Usually next doors getting the beers!! Thats me and my mates.....
