  1. Good work bud. I have a Carnetix CNX-P2140 sat at home doing nothing if you are interested? One of, if not the best Car PSU's available. Yours for the postage and a donation to the forum /runs to check he hasnt thrown it away
  2. along. List updated

    Scratched alloy

    Ouch sorry to hear that buddy I dont know anywhere specific, but WLMG Nissan in Slough are a good bunch, if you speak to G or Abid there they might know someone. It will be very hard to match as from what I understand its built up of multiple layers and shades of paint to give the smoked/chromed effect.
  4. Try both and see which you like. I agree with Rich, on the 350z, the auto isnt quick enough for me, and no paddles either unless you buy a kit which I think they do make now, but its very expensive. So my choice would be the 6MT. On the 370z though, auto FTW - just because its what I chose
  5. The way this country is headed, proper motoring itself is on borrowed time
  6. If you're willing to drive to Basingstoke on evening/weekend, I have one in the loft. You can have it for a donation to the forum. Not willing to post it unfortunately. If interested I'll have a check and make sure its all in good order still
  7. IIRC 55w/60w are standard bulbs (normal bulb rating, not HID), so 100w is considerably brighter and offroad use only. Although being in hi-beam, not many people will ever know
  8. did they come like that as standard or have you upgraded them to that? Well they arent legal, so I'll leave that to you to decide
  9. I was at Rockingham when he did it, was sooo funny He was very humble afterward and on 5th Gear also about the skill required for drifting at the top level and how he didnt have the feel for it.
  10. No - he is the white Stig, he put it in his book and the BBC fired him over it
  11. Glad to hear it bud
  12. We had a reasonable turnout at the NMGB SS meet, but that was a while back, I think we ended up with about 5 cars there too.
  13. I tend to line mine up based on having the cutoff on the top of other peoples number plate. Seems to give enough throw down the road, and also doesnt blind oncoming traffic
  14. The number is in the engine bay
  15. Actually the cars are really 40th Anniversary Editions - Nissan EU came up with the "Black Edition" tag - hence why they have 40th Anniversary Edition badges on the back. Quartz (my colour) is the special edition 40th Anniversary only colour. Black Edition is a term that Nissan EU came up with for some reason to match up with the GTR, and decided to do a run of them in black - hence they were all made in advance. It was only when NMGB saw their demo car in Quartz that they decided to offer them in Quartz too, but they all had to be made to order. So a true 40th Anniversary Edition should be in Quartz Surely a Black Edition should be black though that was my point, must be a PITA explaining all that every time Much prefer Colin's white one anyway That would be my choice if I am ever in the position to buy one You miss the point - its says 40th Anniversary Edition on the back, not Black Edition
  16. Yup - bi-xenons are the only way to go really, but not a cheap option. Are you sure they're not just angled down too much? I found mine were too low and when I aimed them up they were much better.
  17. I get about 19MPG atm running around town - but having an auto does help - it trundles around at 2k RMP

  19. And therefore the oldest... not something to shout about really... Well actually yes and no. All the black ones were made in advance, so they are all quite a bit older, mine was the first made to order
  20. What a great day out. After the dissapointment of Goodwood, I would say this more than made up for it Was good to have a nice little turn out and our little line looked great. Did anyone go out for a pax lap in the SLS?
  21. List updated
  22. They wind me up a treat too. In Basingstoke, theres a cracking road down to Alton. Its notorious with bikers as a great drive, and I love to ride/drive down there. I wasnt allowed to take West Ways 370z down there, had to go on the "approved route" which was pants, and in the end was part of the reason they didnt get a sale from me.
  23. Not a problem my man, it was probably on there from the original cancelled Goodwood meet, when we were going to do this instead. 1. Chris`I (+MAD7BOY) 2. Darren-B 3. Ebized 4. charlotte-sparkles 5. Purple&Black 6. iain10101 PH are well oversubscribed for this now, so should be a corker
  24. GT2 for me please
  25. Any more for the list? Just so we know who to expect 1. Chris`I (+MAD7BOY) 2. Darren-B 3. Ebized 4. glrnet 5. charlotte-sparkles 6. Purple&Black 7. iain10101 8. 9. 10.
