    If you find a good dealer in America-the exchange rate is making this option more viable again I reckon you could get a good deal for £2500 all in (wheels from USA and tires from Camskill)

    Thanks:-), I hear that 'Rimwax' is the best for keeping them clean?

    New wheels

    Yeah I had bit of help on that - I saw a set on my350z.com - they were on a gunmetal G35 and it looked Shweet

    Cheers Digsy - always difficult making wheel decisions and very easy to go for the 'safer' options

    New wheels

    I have just got my new Volk CE28 Special Edition Silver on the Z and it works very well - take a look for yourself: Thanks to Tom @ TGM Sport for putting the wheels and tires on plus giving car it's P1 9k service Thanks to http://www.forgedperformance.com for getting my wheels to me - in particular the beautiful Sandy! Got them to me from USA in 5 days The exchange rate is getting better - making these sort of ventures possible G
  7. ...I'm not denying that dealers need to make money elsewhere but there is a fine line between making a profit and taking the p*ss - Honda did not feel it necessary to charge extortionately for a glass mirror!
  8. Ok, to continue upon a current topical theme - why do Nissan insist on charging extortionate prices for spare parts?! I give you two recent examples: I have enquired about pricing on a front plastic number plate surround for my z and was given a price of £78! I recently had to replace a drivers side wing mirror (just the mirror) - Nissan price £76! When I was running an FD2 last year I had to replace a mirror on that car and Honda charged me £17 on back-order from Holland. Thankfully, both times I have been able to source the same parts from members on here at a fraction of the price Thanks! Me thinks Nissan are treating us as cash cows, or at the very least taking the p*ss. G
  9. UK Spec but thanks for the consideration
  10. ....for my MY08 Z Please PM me
  11. which one are you secretly hankering after most, the evo or the scooby? Honestly, I'm not that bothered. The Evo is far better looking on the outside, but the STi looks better on the inside. The Evo alleges itself to be miles quicker than the STi, but looking at the power and relative weights I just can't see it myself. Given that the STi has the larger engine which should reduce the lag I think I'm going to prefer that to drive, and the fact that it makes a much better noise doesn't hurt either We may even go for a hawkeye STi, best of both worlds really. Just depends on what Jo wants as it'll be her daily driver, and I know she prefers the Evo so far. If it is an Sti you are looking at go for the Litchfield one - the 2Ltr Boxer engine is far superior to the 2.5 Ltr one. I test drove Litchfield's Type 20 - you would not regret the purchase, however the downside is the cost:-(
  12. Wow! I have been asking myself the same question! I have phoned up 3 Nissan Performance centres requesting a trade-in value of my old car against the 370z and at a push I could easily be sold a GTR. Of the three, one centre I have been in twice - TWICE! (Oxford) and not been offered a test drive and have not received call backs. Another in Cambs I have called them more than once over the last couple of months expressing an interest - and this is from a dealer I have bought 2 NEW 350zs over the past couple of years and still no chase up! The third dealer in Watford, who I have never had dealings with before, yet alone visited their dealership, has given me a trade-in value of my current 350z and has left me voicemails - me being in Egypt over the last week has stopped him from getting hold of me - so I know where i'll be buying my next car from:-)
  13. Thats really useful Planning on Falcons myself - although RE50s are looking attractive - apart from the price!
  14. Hi All, Im looking to purchase some 19" wheels - sizes are: 19x10.5 +22 and 19x9.5 +22 I was going to go for 275/35/19 for tyre size but having read my350z faqs (linked from this site ) they mention anything but 275s! Any views on this - what set-ups are you guys using? G.
  15. I have 2 unmarked Rays alloy GT wheels off a MY58 car for sale. Should become available in 3 weeks at the latest. Offers please. Buyer collects from Wokingham. Graham
  16. Hi all, Im looking for any UK dealer that can supply the above - preferably in black but Volk also do a special edition silver which are very cool G.
  17. You for real - the glass mirrors have wiring for anti-condensation/de-icing?!
  18. Nissan want £57 from new - anyone got one out there they want to flog? G.
  19. ...correct.....you are being picky....when i said (GT Pack) wheels I was hoping to distinguish between the two ya?
  20. ....Front wheel In mint condition please. PM price. Prefer to collect locally (Berkshire) Thanks Graham
