It would be a whole lot better, especially with something like the MPSS.

Gearchange, but only after ditching the comedy size stock item for the dumpy Nismo titanium one. Wonderfully notchy shift.

Probably the better way round, you'll get understeer rather than oversteer Glad you found it useful

How does every big accident on track start? "Hey, watch this!" Very old TD joke, that one.

Does it have to be double DIN? I had the earlier version of this in mine, and it was superb. It's now in the Impreza and still going strong.

So if you go to the main page at www.350z-uk.com, then forums, and then click view new content, what happens? Do you have By Time Period --> Content I have not read ticked? And By Content type --> Forums?

I was in bed asleep, massive pizza belleh Thanks guys, much appreciated

It'll be interesting to see where they go with this, now they've dispensed with anything canon. If it's even half as good as the last one, it'll be a cracking film.

Yes, make sure you don't leave it to cure as it's a bloody nightmare to remove! VOE on that one, sadly.

I would be tempted to look at increasing the level of protection you put on the actual car than anything else. I agree that the gazebo probably won't last very long, and a car cover isn't going to work either unless you wash the car every single night, so I'd probably put a slightly more durable finishing product on the car instead. I'd be looking at something like the FK1000P which is increadibly hard wearing, and while you do lose a little of the ultimate finish that a good wax will give it's worth it as it will give a massive amount of protection.

That could be the greatest thing I've ever seen.

I looked into this a couple of years back on my Zed, and was put off by by tyre fitters due to the possibility of damage to the sensors when they're changing tyres. That's not to slight my fitters at all, they're great guys, it's more that some of the sensors sit higher up than others (especially non-OEM stuff) and when they're removing the tyre from the rim they can sometimes be damaged, no matter how careful they are. Given the cost of them, I kinda figured that it was just something else to break rather than something I would make a massive use of.

How bizarre! See, they've got to pay the techs the same regardless of what they're doing, so if they can keep them busy then it's better for them as it won't cost them anything. VED and fuel is straight out of their pocket though. That's really odd.

I tend to walk in, tell the dealer my budget and pick a car from there. I don't negotiate on the window price, I get stuff thrown in instead or get any nicks and scratches sorted. Fuel and VED are the worst things to negotiate over as there's zero movement on them for the dealer in terms of price, but anything involving their labour is a great way to get VFM.

Naff all so far, but I'm not too fussed. Going out to Pizza Hut tonight so will stuff my face then!

I can't do the dance, and it pains me so much as it looks awesome

On the left hand side, there's a load of options for this under the heading 'By Time Period'. Click 'Content I have not read' and you'll be sorted

You are indeed correct, cheers matey! And just to spite you, today I shall be super-happy-awesome Dan instead, so ner

only 4" ?? they have to improve the heat loss value to 0.16 u value - 4" definately won't do that (should be more like 10") This is on top of the existing stuff we already have in.

Tell me about it, we've had those cold calls at the door for a couple of years and I've just ignored them as we're not on any benefits so don't qualify, but this one time I thought I'd make the effort and chat with the bloke. Best thing I ever did, also got all the loft done in 4" insulation as well

Just got mine done for free by the folks doing the grants: Apparently the government gave them so much cash for this that they've now done all the people on benefits, so are opening it up to anyone and everyone who wants it now!

How on earth did you lose a TLGP to an old Sierra, they've got lag you can measure in weeks!

I tend to view the big brands as individuals, rather than a chain. Your local one might be okay, unlike Phil's above. I use my local JustTyres, because the guys in there are excellent and I trust them to work on any of my cars.

Best get your wallet out then Aircon, satnav, heated door mirrors, leather interior, tracker, the excellent sport seats, and a better chassis. Dynamically superior as the engine is in the right place, and you get more room for shopping too. Quicker 0-60 and higher top speed as well, if that floats your boat. Only thing it falls down on is the 3 year old rule, admittedly, but it's only done 46K and Porsches wear much better than Nissans anyway so it really won't feel like a 6 year old car. There's a 370Z on there for £16700 that's done 33K miles in three years, which would be the closest competitor but that's an auto. If anyone buys a car because of the badge, they're an idiot. If anyone hates a particular brand because of the badge, they're an idiot. If anyone thinks a car that costs £20K more when new isn't better than the cheaper one, they're an idiot. Sometimes though the best car isn't actually the best car for the individual, which is why we all ended up in Zeds here. There's better cars out there, certainly for the money, but we all bought the Zed in whatever form because it was the best car for us at the time. How hard is that to understand, and to let people enjoy the choice they made without being labelled as an idiot who seeks some proprietary idea of 'bang for buck' or 'premium badge'?
