Chadwick Posted February 18, 2010 Author Share Posted February 18, 2010 the guy aint sure what exhaust it is , the previous owner fitted it , ive found out that it is 400 a year for tax , another thing to put me off the car , probably needs a new head unit , 400 a yr tax , i would want to buy new alloys since they aint the ones i want and its an import , i can see me finding it hard 2 sell this car in the future , am i right in saying imports dont sell as easy as uk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 Ask him for some close up pics of the exhaust, we need to settle this Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simon+Kat Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 like i say mate, if you like black, and arn't bothered about non GT and being a Jap import then i would go for it. It's a car you would feel good in, no doubt. By the way, it came up clean when i HPI'd it. Ignore the slightly snotty comments from the odd person on here , ive been on this forum for months and months and feel like im only just scratching the surface of what there is to know about these fantastic cars. Sorry i didn't find out the exhaust brand, im still new to modified cars, being a life long biker. I,ve come to fast cars quite late! Let me know how you get on if you decide to have a look. Good luck mate. Simon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nixy Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 at the end of the day having an import means you buy a bit cheaper and you sell a bit cheaper - don't be put off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stanski Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 If it feels right to you buy it matey if your not happy about something walk away is always my advice forget about stupid exhausts they are easy to swop check the engine gearbox suspension and body are all fine and it feels tight when you fling it round bends as with any car also remember just because your going 700 miles doesn't mean you must buy it - we drove to the other end of the country to look at a car once turned out to be a shoddy lemon - yes bit of a wasted day an petrol but cheaper than buying a shed on wheels. We will await your verdict either way good luck with it and remember there are loads for sale for reasonable money these days and we are here to help you either way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanS16 Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 I'd say the exhaust is probably a Fujitsubo (looks like one) as a lot of the imports come with them - I think they were a JDM factory option. Also, I disagree with people who are saying to go with the GT pack (apart from the heated seats and cruise control - which CAN be added) as the bose is a pain the arse to upgrade, its easier to get a non bose car as the head unit can be swapped over without any pac-roem thingys and the Cloth seats can be re-covered with a nicer finish for the premium you'd be paying for the GT pack. The only real extra you get with the GT pack is being able to say it's one. Looks like a nice car though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nixy Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 yeah I agree - GT makes it sound a lot better and more different than it is - its just a trim level at the end of the day and while the orange stitching that comes with all zeds black leather looks good in a sunset it looks pretty naff in most of the other colours!

Husky Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 must resist taking black pen to stitching must resist taking black pen to stitching must resist taking black pen to stitching must resist taking black pen to stitching must resist taking black pen to stitching repeat... i hate the orange highlights all over the car. especially on blue red yellow purple cars, how stupid, yes its common across the platform reducing cost but come on nissan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
