  1. Just asking incase there was a specific reason for it eg work or family. The zed will seems a fair bit slower than the M3 but it is deceptively quick. It unfair to compare the two really due to the cost of each but the zed is a great car in its own right
  2. One question, why have you changed?
  3. Will this out perform the GT-R? I doubt it Does it look better? Probably Will this depreciate riduculously? Of course...... Who would rather have a GT-R plus £55k change? I would Infact I'd take a white AND a black GT-R instead of the 8C
  4. The uk one in that link has done 18800 6000 miles a year is very low imo. Plus it has the GT pack etc. Also the uk is likely to have had a lot of the zed's nigles sorted out by now e.g clicking axles and skipping bose. Someone on here just bought a zed and got a quote for the rear axles and was quoted circa £700 per side plus labour and VAT etc. Yup, the more I think about it the more I'm sure its gotta be UK. Paying for the london one bothers me - long way to go to view the car and risky taking cash. I work in london occassionaly so could sort something out maybe. I'd ask for some specific photo's, just to be sure that he actually has the car. It shouldn't be a problem for someone who actually wants to sell a car

  6. You can pay for some AA cover and repairs out of the £50k change
  7. I should have added that one, am also quite interested in it and have emailed the owner. Its a base model so no brembos (tho looks like it on the pics) and no Bose I think. I only really dismissed this one when I saw the JDM at HSC for 15.5k with only 6k on her. This one is UK though, but when you put the two together the JDM dealer is bound to drop to 15k or less but the UKDM owner wasn't willing to drop further than £200. Any real benefit to going UKDM - £500 more with 16k more miles on her? As for colour, I would consider black (nice GT4 on ebay now 10k no reserve). I really don't like silver, hated it on Supras which put me off. Gunmetal was my choice colour when I was considering another Supra, but for some reason I just don't like it on the 350z. As Digsy said, ALL uk cars come with brembo's As for whether its worth going JDM, thats a hard one. I'm sceptical and would be suspicious of such low mileage on a JDM. Has it been drifting around Tokyo? Only an inspection of both cars will give you the answer. If all things are correct then the JDM should be in much better condition and the UK will have stone chips to the bonnet. If it was me, I'd go for the uk car if its in decent condition and has been serviced correctly
  8. How about this one: http://www.pistonheads.co.uk/sales/284455.htm There are loads of zeds below your budget if you go for silver or gunmetal
  9. Nor me, but i'd take a Sag plus the £50k change
  10. I think it looks like a Sagaris
  11. But I'm willing to bet you wouldnt buy them as a replacement tyre I did, twice not on your last set of wheels Correct, went with Pirelli's as I got a great deal on them in 19's

    Are you fecking serious???????????
  14. Homer must be sporting a stubby
  15. I still think a cheap set of the 17s that the Jap imports came on would be better. The car was never designed to run on 16s and, whilst I have no technical reasoning to back myself up, I just wouldn't fancy it. Surely the tyres would have to be such high profile to keep the rolling radius that you'd knacker the handling? There's someone in the for sale section flogging some 17s. Think he has a pal who can get him free 16's, that why he was thinking 16 inch rims. TBH 18's should be the minimum put on a zed.......17's look bloody stupid. acceptable on a track but how much advantage do they really give?
