  1. Surely one is for Saturday and one is for Sunday
  2. We'll drag you kicking and screaming into this century Its very nice I must say, Stillen exhaust sounds so much better than stock too You dont breaking her in yet Colin? Had to go tentatively last time I saw her.
  3. Not for long though hopefully Jez, we're ready to go when you are Sounds like you had a cracking day
  4. Chris`I

    wrapping

    Yup, Mitz was looking to do a great deal for the first roadster to be done via him, so give him a shout
  5. Looks good, Bedford is a cracking track, nice big run offs and nothing to hit
  6. Check youtube, I think there are a couple with 370z's maybe a standard and a Nismo one
  7. You used the HTML tags, needs to me the IMG tags
  8. I was waiting for that I think its quite a good place. Bar the heat coming from the intercooler, its the best place for it. Not sure how much detremental effect the IC will have, maybe want to heatshield it from that?
  9. And to think we leave him incharge of the forum
  10. Very nice, good work Dixon
  11. Looks good Fixed the images for ya.
  12. As above, been sent but not read
  13. Looks very nice mate, good to hear its well made, might get a few EvoR bits myself Although not sure how well it will show up on very dark grey, might leave it til mine arrives.
  14. I liked the heavy clutch in my MY03 Zed, the new light clutch takes away some of the feeling IMO. Also didnt say road noise was desireable, but more the lack of sound deadening, which lets you hear the exhaust note more. The Cayman I drove around Thruxton sounded a lot more muted than a Zed, and also dare I say it, boring. Its almost too good at what it does. I agree they are looking at pricing themselves out of the race though. If it wasnt for this place I may well have gone for a Cayman over a 370z
  15. Maybe check out my350z for the BCs, I'm sure theres quite a few on there running them, they seem quite popular with the 370z crowd too, but the 370z lot havent put that many miles on them I dont think. Maybe not a problem if you get them from Mitz as we know he has excellent customer service and its not your daily driver. Depends if you want to have more adjustability for the cost, so something simpler from KW knowing they are good for many many miles.
  16. Doesnt sound good Trev Dont know how much of that is just an Evo/Scooby issues, but I thikn I'd stick with something known to have good longevity then Dave like the KW or Nismo. I know a few members on here have BC's so it'd be interesting to see if any of them have put decent miles on them and see how they are getting on.
  17. No worries, Tom and the chaps are great, and the price is very good too
  18. I think they just dont like me? Young with money, obviously not your usual Micra buyer, they probably arent used to the levels of service I expect, but if they expect to shift 370z's they definately need to up their game. In contrast, WLMG (albeit they are about to become a HPC) are head and shoulders above them. I asked WestWay why the 370z satnav wasnt touchscreen as I'd seen in other places and why no postcode entry - they replied they didnt know. I asked WLMG the same, they didnt know either, but they went off to NMGB, chased them up, asked them, got back to me and confirmed it was the 2010 model revision that bough it to the market, and told me when I could order one like that. Basingstoke never got back to me after my test drive like they were meant to - so obviously didnt want a sale
  19. Does look interesting - the Stig in car form - if the Stig was a transformer this is what he'd be They story behind it is crazy, some guys decided to build a car, so they did, and this was the outcome! Mad.
  20. As discussed before Dave, BC's get a very good writeup on all forums I have seen them on. Think they are about the same price as the KW V1, but have a lot more adjustability. I wouldnt go for just springs if you can afford coilies, as reselling coilies will make the money back on them anyway, and as Dan says they will ride so much better having matched springs and dampers. Personally, I'd see what Alex is wanting for the Nismo's and price that up against the BCs
  21. Lovely colour - but Basingstoke shouldnt be allowed to sell them or 370z's their sales team is shocking! Lack of communication and general poor service lost them the sale of a new 370z Buyer beware - double check everything with them to make sure its what it appears, mine had a few more owners I found out after recieving the V5 after buying from them
  22. I think one of the rental/lease companies does. I'm sure I've seen pre-loved 350's in their listings occasionally. 370z might be a tad new yet. I'm sure between all the cars we could arrange a co-pilot ride. Maybe a ride in one of the ballistic old school Z racecars? You'd certainly get a feel for noise, you hear every mechanic part moving in the old school ones. You'd love it. Dont tempt me, I'd end up not coming back! Off to check Jobserve/LinkedIn for jobs in NZ
  23. Been trying to get it in my local Blockies for ages, but they never have it in. They have it to buy, but I only want to watch it once! I have heard its very good, and certainly looks good from the ads. Will deffo be sure to watch it
  24. They were talking about the Z33 at that point as they mentioned Ajay Panchal who was the Z33 designer, and also mention the 3.5l lump in the same bit
  25. As Mark says the massive difference to the Nismo intakes is Stillen relocate the filters (K&N) to the outside of the engine bay, inside the bumper. So they suck much colder air. The intakes were originally designed for the 370z and modded to fit the HR engine 350z's. I would go hands down Stillen over Nismo, but you'll need a remap to see the real gains. The other thing that sets them apart, is part of their R&D was tube lenth compared to MAF placement, they beleive they found a few extra ponies by the airflow being smoother over the MAF compared to ones like the Nismo where the MAF is directly behind the filter. Build quality is very good, so jump on the GB and save a few quid over importing one yourself
