  1. It has to display it by law in some countries. It would make logical sense that you could disable it in the software where not required, but I havent heard of a way of doing it yet
  2. Happy B'day buddy
  3. On tracks and cyclepaths they are a great idea, but why anyone would take one on the road, I dont know
  4. As above take it easy for 50-100 miles then start to lean on the tyres more throughout the corners building up to 500 miles, then they should be good to go.
  5. Well if you would get yourself a hairdressers car. Plus you are probably on here more than the S2K forums
  6. You can get a module in the States that does this. Dont know if it works with the UK cars, but they do have them. Its just a relay that senses when the sat nav starts and "presses" the button Dont think there is one for the 370z yet though. I dont mind in the 370z as you can use the Enter button on the steering wheel
  7. Very nice, I like that. Agree that you should complain, but not a lot they will do now, maybe a free service or something as a good will jesture?
  8. Having an auto, I dont really find it a problem as I dont have a clutch to play with. Knowing Nissan there will be no easy way to disengage it. Ye old way of removing fuses doesnt tend to work these days with many systems running through a single fuse or even multiple fuses for one system
  9. Can I chuck my bikes in the back? Fancy doing another ride out with AK Pencil me in for this. Bit far off yet to know what I'll be doing, but will try my best to make it
  10. People seem to be missing the biggest differentiator of the lot - who is the better driver? Having taken a Zed and a Cayman (and S) around the track, yes the Proker is faster and more clinical, but if you are a better driver than him, you will beat him A-B. Hell, you dont even have to be technically better than him, just know how your car handles better than him. I've seen fast cars be beaten enough times by sheds to know the biggest factor is who is the better driver. So get some driver training (if required) and whoop his ass
  11. Its in place to protect the members from spammers who were appearing to make a quick buck. As we've said many times before, its going nowhere. If you want to make a quick sale, this isnt the place, get it on eBay. PMs are the way to communicate and seal the deal, they stop all the dibs, second dibs and persuing arguments of chosing one member over another
  12. Do it right and use this. Stew pointed us all to it IIRC quite some time ago. Treat all my cars with it now, works a treat
  13. Neither, they are T20 wedge bulbs, like side lights but bigger. Chilli Red will sort you out a set
  14. As we've said before, the system is in place to protect members until we can put the final approval system in place. It was more of a headache formthe team before the current system was put in place trying to control the spamming and dibs craziness. Unfortunately we do have other day jobs to do so it's been on the back burner. Buyers should always PM the seller and not rely on posts being approved quickly, that depends on who on the team is online at the time. I believe we have covered this before, I'll look to see if we can make mention of it in the rules.
  15. Nissan suggest not taking it above 4.5k RPM for the first 1200 miles IIRC. My school of thought, as with many others, is just to get it warm and take it to the red line over some time when its warm. Not that I condone this as it may invalidate your warranty, but it has been seen to provide more power and better (read less) oil consuption as the rings seat better. Modern engines are run to the redline on the bench when they are made. IMO the only reason car makers say to keep the revs lower until over 1000 miles is so that things like the tyre release agent can wear off, brakes can bed in and anything else that may go wrong will do so at lower speeds and revs. The engine doesnt need any nannying other than getting the oil nice and warm before you have a play Oh and I beielve many bike teams also openly admit they rag the engines from new
  16. I'll say no then, wait for the 370z-uk.net stickers
  17. Another Quartz
  18. Get a PDG on that and make sure a panel hasnt been sprayed. No way it would have come like that from the factory. Dirty and swirled, yes, but not overspray. It could of course be from the smartguard they applied. Why anyone signs up for that stuff I do not know, you are far better off getting some decent wax/sealant and using that, about 1/10th of the cost and just as good. You can have 10yrs protection for the same price Good work though, that car has come up lovely.
  19. I'm sure some 370z-uk.net stickers will be in the pipeline shortly, as Martin has pointed out. And all donations are greatly welcomed, they help pay the bills
  20. Get some proper megs plastic polish instead, far better sure halfrauds do it.
  21. The finish isnt half a tough when its wet painted. What wheels do you have? For most wheels there is no harm what so ever in having them powder coated 2 or even 3 times.
  22. Oh yeah you cant be us here for a UK site, but the stuff they do over there to and with 370z's is way more than us. Cant beat us for being the next best thing though
  23. Its about half and half atm, not all old members who had 350z's Not a lot we can do about the370z.com either, they are a massive site with a load of good info. No reason Google would promote us over them tbh.
  24. I was looking to get some Philips Vision LED bulbs to go with my SilverVision indicators, they aint cheap though. I would hope they are good quality though.
  25. I'm really impressed that we have such a high number of such a limited car on the site
