  1. excellent. cheers mate will do. post pics hopefully next week sometime when i've given it a once over with a clay bar
  2. it's the front and rear under spoilers, and side spats. the front and rear seem like urethane, and the side spats are fibreglass (i am guessing here as i don't actually know, the front and rear are quite bendy, but the side spats are solid). the kit is genuine veilside and from a reputable seller but there are some issues with fitment in some cases. 2 body shops have refused to fit it because it may require shaving, and they don't think that the time it will take to fit properly will make it worth their while (i'd have thought if i was paying what does it matter, they charge by the hour don't they?)
  3. does £400 - £500 sound right for painting and fitting full V1 kit? i've no chance of fitting it myself so will need professional help and recommended body shops have politely told me where to go. i have got someone willing to fit it but thats the price i'm looking at. don't mind paying it as long as i'm not getting taken roughly from behind.

    350Z rival

    would prefer to wait and see what the next generation z brings or the new infiniti, but looks ok. reminds me of an alpha. . . don't think it looks as good as the zed though (although admittedly you can't see it properly)
  5. Fittedmine myself I love the way you had yours painted, Kev. the yellow and carbon fibre really work well. i would try to fit mine myself but i have the side spats to fit as well which are a bit beyond me.
  6. but if it's the 06 + led tail lights you're after i think there's a few traders on here who can do a good deal on them. sure one will pipe up soon look forward to seeing the flash seats at wales
  7. i do have one of those, but getting someone willing to fit it is another matter. . .
  8. although the best desktop wallpaper will be available after 11th may
  9. some peoples knowledge of the 350z shows me just how little i actually know. . . impressive stuff
  10. i hardly see any, unless i go down south or into a city centre. saw a review of a mazda rx8, which said if you're bored with seeing too many zeds on the road, buy a rex! cheecky bugger, rex's are common as muck!

    Big Box!

    if it was from big phil i expect it was significantly better than coffee and biccies. pray tell. . .
  12. just a word of advice, manchester parking wardens are meant to carry a dna swabbing kit with them in case you spit on their face, so it's always best just to punch them.

  14. i would love the time, money, garage space, skill and knowledge to be able to rescue and restore some of them. shame to see. it reminds me that my zed needs a clean tho. . .
  15. that is a truly awesome site. lots of fun to be had
  16. you can run on 95 ron but the car feels drastically better using 97 or tescos 99.
  17. just watched a couple of your vids, funny as fook. may have to turn up to a show in manc

    Final Drive

    i'm pretty much set on getting jwt flywheel and clutch, partly due to quality and partly due to cheap deals buying both together. i do like changing gear so would probably give the final drive a go depending on price. can you let me know if you get any decent quotes? maybe cheaper to buy in bulk? i'm a bit wary of remapping the ecu for more revs, as there's always a reason why you don't get them with stock. . . anyway, just out of interest, below is stolen from 350z-tech Table of max speeds Gear. . . .3.5 @6850. 3.9 @6850 . 3.9 @7200 1st. . . . .38.9. . . . . . .35.1. . . . . . . 36.9 2nd. . . . 63.5. . . . . . .57.3. . . . . . . 60.3 3rd. . . . .90.8. . . . . . .82.0. . . . . . . 86.2 4th. . . . .116.1. . . . . .104.8. . . . . . 110.2 5th. . . . .147.1. . . . . .132.9. . . . . . 139.7 6th. . . . .185.6. . . . . .167.6. . . . . . 176.5 not convinced the z would do 185 mph so there is some wasted gear ratio going there. . .

    Final Drive

    i did look into this myself as it seems a good mod. however, the thing that put me off was that even though it improves acceleartion, you have to change gear more. i was thinking that the 15% improvement in acceleration may be cancelled out to a degree because of the extra changes, and that weighed up with the cost of buying one and fitting it. . . i'd love to be proved wrong though just out of interest, which flywheel you chose?

    How much????

    either spend as he says £35,000 on building a replica 360 which is actually a peugeot, or just save up and buy a 360 http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/267843.htm
  21. prepare to be offended when they chuckle to themselves. . . let us know how it goes
  22. London: Zedrush Limiter Manchester: Zedrush Limiter Digsy tmJak
  23. i heard they were a southern delicacy (like eels) that lines your stomach before a heavy sesh on the shandy
  24. had thought of getting a celica but someone told me that they aren't particularly comfortable unless you're of a smaller build. cheeky sod
  25. don't give labour any ideas! couldn't afford to stomach that as well. . .
