if anyone ever considers buying a 350z, seriously re consider.

Because of the fuel leak i have i decided to take my sister z to work.

can believe how shitty the visibility is out the windows, especially the rear one.

reverse parking? nah. you cant tell how close you are to the wall. have to get out like 3 times to check.

power? ehh.. good take off, in the wet, i struggled to keep traction, half asleep you have to really baby it. but then when you expect more power up top. nothing. the car seriously gives up at about 4000rpm lol.

oh n not to mention a PITA to get in and out of.

It makes me appreciate the stag and how comfortable it is.

POS 350z, i wouldve sold it by now.

yeh shes got the HR model..its meant to be 30kw more or something..

but whats the point after 4000-4500rpm it literally just gives up. i think im expecting boost.

one other this i forgot to mention.

the speedo gage numbers are wayyy to small. personally i'de rather them larger as u notice if your speeding.

I dont know what the japs did with it, its a POS. im glad the 370z was a massive improvement.

I finally discovered the real reason why Craig buys Nankangs. They keep sending him calendars...

Edit: Fine, a link instead: http://livesniffpetrol.s3.amazonaws.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/PicNews-101203.jpg

Hmm good point. Make sure tagged links in future then...

Mind you, your work probably doesn't like you on SAU all day when you're supposed to be working either?

Well luckily for me I'm not on it all day :pirate:. See above as per Aaron's comments...

I'm sure other's might not appreciate half nakid (fat) chicks popping up on their screens when their boss/colleagues walks by...

If u really wanna share your luv for BBW's there's the wasteland thread for that...hahaha

just got off the phone with Shannons Insurance...

Not impressed.

1st - they don't know my car. That's fine, not many people do.

2nd - after telling them every little bit of detail about my past infringments/mods etc he comes back and says "we can't insure you because your car has too many mods. It needs to be in a garage"

3rd - I told him as I'm moving to a new house soon which HAS a lockup garage, can he give me a quote. He goes for another 10 min and then comes back and said "no, we can't give u a quote until you've moved into a house with a garage".

I guess I need to ring up again and lie just to get a f**king quote. idiots...wasting both our time. If they don't/can't want to insure me just f**king say so from the start...

Thank goodness JCI's online portal is so easy to use...

    • I don't know how this is even possible. I removed the strut to do some work (it came out fine, and keeping in mind that I didn't put things back in the same order, but did this on purpose because I was supposed to remove the strut originally instead I tried to remove other shit first which made things a head ache) but now the problem is that it won't go back in. The alignment between where the bolt hole for the strut is and the j arm where the strut slides onto is way off, about a 10cm difference or more. In order to make it fit I'd somehow need to push it up. I tried to compress it with a spring compressor and install it but the compressor was getting in the way and there was no working room. On the photo you can see the difference between the shock and the thread that it's supposed to go on. The only things I removed in total were - the top bolts for the j arm but I didn't remove the actual j arm - the 3 bolts that hold the plate for the brake lines - the sway bar link (this bolted on back fine) - the strut/shock absorber
    • LOL that sounds pretty conclusive! Yeah if it doesn't work on a tight nut, it doesn't work.
    • Been a while since I've heard anyone mention Kumho tyres. It's like they've fallen off the radar in terms of street/track tyres. I still want to get below 1m50s on the RS-4 tyres at SMSP, just because lol. Even doing a 1m52s lap, going into T1 was sketchy af.
    • I've run most of the semis which are available and sadly you can pretty much rank them by price.  Fast and spendy = Z221, A050, DZ03G Ok and mid range price = R888, V70A, A052 I don't really rate the AR-1 because it's not cheap enough for the performance level offered. Yes, they're much cheaper than A050 but V70A can be had just as cheap and is a much faster and more predictable tyre.
    • There's no current law that stipulates that you cannot eat dessert with a soup spoon, although, it is socially unacceptable of course, shame on you But, there are emissions laws, which is sort of on topic to the OP's questions Things like emissions are, if anything, going to get stricter in the future for road registered cars I believe, 'Merica has yearly emisions testing in some states, the UK has it's yearly MOT testing as well which includes emissions Building, and purchasing modified vehicles may become alot more problematic if you want to keep them registered, how, if, and when each state handles this is anyone's guess  More food for thought really
