  1. This morning i put in 69 litres or V power due to my dte flashing 27 miles left, and this cost me £94 (Nottingham). God knows how much 80 litres would cost me! Uk model 08 plate.
  2. I have the 309 bhp 350z and would like to know when i'm actually using this full power, which gears and which revs etc?
  3. I also had a Vectra 11 years ago ( Gsi 192 bhp), it was nothing compared to my 350z. I stay well clear of the Mondeo driver's (Mark 2), they always seem to think they have a point to prove. Undertaking and driving dangerously i've seen many a times, i just get out of their way when i see them in my rear view mirror.
  4. I bought my 350z brand new from them in 2008 and had all my services done by them with no problems at all.
  5. Has anybody come across or tried one of these yet, just wondered because they only weigh 1260 kg and it nearly has as much torque has the 350z. I know it's only 208 bhp but if you remap it might be quite nippy even if it is front wheel drive.
  6. Just how much difference would winter tyres make and which are the best ones for the 350z?
  7. Falken 452's i think, but it was happening the last two winter's with the original Bridgestone's, like someone said before i think it's just the nature of the beast.
  8. My four tyres are only 6 months old, and i live away from the city using a lot of country roads. Had my car for nearly three years now and even though i expect icy roads for the next few months it might be time for a change. I always drive slow this time of the year infact this morning i was was only doing about 20 mph at two seperate corners when loss of control happened.
  9. I was out driving early this morning and being very careful due to the icy winter roads and yet i still lost control a couple of times, this happened a few times to me last winter and i'm just not sure if want my 350 any more. Does this happen easier than other cars because of the back end being lighter than the front? I wonder if the 370z will have the same problem? What do i need to do buy a 4x4 or are there other coupe's that don't suffer as much? What about the TT quatro for example?
  10. South Nottinghamshire, i'm booked in at the Nottingham Wheel Alignment at Basford. Cheers.
  11. Been recently to Formula One for wheel alignment and drove off with the steering wheel **** eyed to the left when the car is straight, so i took it back to be re done and now it's **** eyed to the right. How can they be getting it wrong?

    Which tyre?

    I've just checked my vehicle health check dated 20/03/10 and all four tyres (Bridgestone RE050A) have the same tread left - inner 2, mid 3, and outer 2. Are all four nearly ready for replacing?

    Which tyre?

    I got it wrong, my tyres are the RE050a's. I'm going to change both of my fronts but still doing some research on which brands. Are the Falken 452's better than the Bridgstone RE050A's, if there the same i might go for the Falken's simply because they are cheaper.
  14. http://i171.photobucket.com/albums/u296 ... 250595.jpg Does this tyre need changing a.s.a.p?

    Which tyre?

    My original front tyres (RE040 Bridgestone) need replacing after 16,000 miles, what good replacement choices do i have for the same kind of distance? I never use my car for the track.
