  1. the cubby is different between 03 and 04 btw - so an my03-05 cubby could be either
  2. actually I am not terribly happy with my rear struts atm as there is a problem with the boot no longer fitting flush to the roofline when it's closed - am investigating..
  3. It can be - by a Metro 6R4 (0-100 8.2 sec)
  4. Must admit it does look stunning but a 5litre engine thats slower than a 3.8 litre engine, Id rather save on fuel and pay for a 3.8 and be quicker Isn't that a bit like saying you'd take the 2.0 from a FQ340 over the 3.5 from the Zed? True but 2 litre to 3.5 litre is not big difference. 3.8litre to 5 litre v10 is huge difference hmm surely 2 -> 3.5 is 1.5 whereas 3.8->5 is 1.2 ... in percentage terms then 2 -> 3.5 is even larger than 3.8 -> 5

  6. looks nice - are they the same camera ? the white balance is completely different in before/after?
  7. yes the clutch IS heavy compared to many modern cars - although the biting point shouldnt feel particularly low in my xp. ive driven 800 miles in a weekend and had no problem with the clutch.. up to you to decide if you can live with 2 seater though!
  8. you could try a different image host if photobucket isnt working - I use Flickr...

    Sarnie you do not know how true this is. Sorry to break bad news, anyone who thinks the 350z is holding its money I suggest one thing as a sanity check. Take your car (anything over 12 months old) in to the local Nissan dealer and as how much he will give you for cash it, as you need to buy a different mark. Trust me you will be very very shocked at what you get offered. If you think they will give you less because your are moving away from Nissan then its not true as if you are genuinely going to another maker, ie, BMW, AUDI etc then they will not sell yours, only phone up Nissan garage and see what they offer the car, then use that for the cost to change. Nissan will give the lowest figure as they have not seen the actual car so use the lowest figure to reduce the risk. PS this is not only my car but anything that is over 12 months old and you will see that it is probably over 3-5k different to what you think you would get. I have loved the car but need something different now and was living in blissful ignorance of its worth. of course its not "holding" its money .. its a mass produced car!
