  1. a quick update........ got it for 8 days now.........1500km under the belt 500km more to go the parts (reflectors/mudguards) didnt arrive in time.......when i collected the car......so when i book it in for oil change next week......will get everything done at the same time. everyone seems to like the z.......even the local traffic cops.........they like it so much, they even took a picture of it........i was a bit disappointed.......for the money i'm going to pay.......the least they can do is to send me colour photo
  2. you have no idea........for the past 2 weeks, i've been drinking more than usual, and visited the strip joint many times.......just to get my mind off the Z i'm going to change the gear knob anyway.......burnt orange hand brake lever, i'm not sure???? i will give it a week or 2............
  3. yup burnt orange!!! is the offical name here don't have pics yet but something like this.......just imagine is RHD and with out that piece on the steering wheel. http://www.thezstore.com/page/TZS/PROD/IA35/50-3534
  4. yeh tks.........i really enjoyed my scooby.....it took me since aug'06....to convince myself to move on and let her go............. sold it 2 weeks ago........ got a call from the dealer@ 16h45 today........telling me the z has arrived rushed there as fast as i could (well i tried, it's a diesel ) everything pretty much as expected......except gear knob and hand brake lever......i thought only the seats are burnt orange. it should be ready mon/tuesday next week.......luckily i'm going away this weekend.
  5. hmm.......i see, tks. i will ask the dealership to put them on before i take delivery........
  6. hi all, newbie here pls bear with me......... finally, car ordered, finance approved.......should be ready for collection early next week i can't wait. a few ideas for the z already.... mud guards, clear reflectors (front bumper), btw, is't a quick job? or does it involve removing the bumper???? a few bling-bling items like nismo gear knob, radiator cap......etc anti smash and grab film/tint.......crime is a problem here in ZA, and imho, light tint goes really well with gun grey and........here in ZA the 350z race in the production car series (class a) vs 330i/147GTA/STi/A4 3.2Q........and Nissan ZA runs a performance driving school at one of the tracks.......how cool is that....... one gets to drive/learn the limits of the z in a controlled enviro. in one of their z's i hope the lady get back to me.......so i can book it asap. i think i've moved on from mods for more power .......been there, done that with the scooby.......i will keep the z oe.......if anything light weight rims/uprated brakes/suspension....etc but most importantly learn to drive a F/R properly any advise on engine run-in/oil change??????? tks
  7. tks guys........looking forward to spend more time on the forum.....there's so much info here yeah, i don't know what i'm going to do for the next 2 weeks......i can't sleep/work.........got that warm fuzzy feeling inside.......i think i'm in love i'm South African only.............
  8. hi guys..... new to the forum/Z...etc. my Z should arrive in 2 weeks......i've decided not to bother/wait for the HR engine, as i'm in ZA, and no one knows when it will get here, and i really don't like that power bulge/mx5-esq bonnet. been driving the "classic" impreza for the past 5 years.......it's time to grow up
