  1. They are not always attached to metal plates. The old Bose speakers came in a large plastic box with a small amp in it.
  2. This one's more amusing... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pvauQipH-js
  3. Depends HOW it's been modded. Mechanically modded is good and will sell with uprated parts, but some multicoloured monstrosity with half a boat grafted onto it with silly doors isn't likely to sell that quickly IMHO.
  4. I handed it back about 5 mins ago. Getting the Vectra back was lovely...lol, like driving a Roller in comparison! LOL
  5. Agreed to a certain extent, but the nice premium tuned examples are actually LWB!!...most of them anyway. M30Z was built as SWB, but the one that's ended up here soon is LWB and so is the Pentroof, it's what all the Nissan race teams went for. Even SWBs aren't really fetching an awful lot more money than 2+2s anymore.
  6. There seem to be less and less Z32s coming over. Because they are virtually worthless over here comparatively on a general scale, it makes it commercially unviable to bring any over. NA Autos are selling for as little as £1k - £1500 and TT Autos for as little as £2k. It what point does it become a loss making venture. I know Z32s are cheap in Japan, but the average prices are equalling out. With the cost of shipping and tax being nearly £1k per car, it just isn't economical anymore. I think we'll see the shipment of Zs from Japan all but dry up soon.
  7. How would I get from the dealership back home to get my 300 just to drive it back to work? LOL I can live with the misery of Agila for a few hours!
  8. There is at Filton airfield!!
  9. You have to get the thing moving! LOL As I said, 4000rpm at 75!!!!
  10. As much as I'd really enjoy that. I couldn't do it as I do have respect for other's property as much as I hate the thing. If it were my own, I'd love to kill it!
  11. The gearbox is so bad. It's like stirring custard. Suzuki should never have been able to build the things.
  12. I would love to believe me! I 'used' the gears earlier! LOL
  13. ...My Vectra is in having a service and I've been graced with the pleasure of driving this...... A Vauxhall Agila 1.2 It's the most embarrassing and hateful car I think I've ever driven. The ratios is the gearbox are so close ratio, that when in 5th at 75mph it's doing 4,000rpm!!!! I kid you not. It screams its tits off. Going round corners is scary as it's so top heavy. Horrid dash seemingly hewn from a solid lump of bakalite.
  14. Old English name for a nobleman I think. Count and Countess etc. Like an Earl. I think it's a title that you can give yourself providing you hold enough size/value in the estates that you own.
  15. Seats don't look like that, but that's the colour combo. Retrimmed Z seats basically. I may well go for the Stillen sway bars at some point, but that can wait a little bit.
  16. I'll make sure I make it to JAE or something next year and you can share some of my vodka! :)
  17. Swivel on it Bri! ;)
  18. ...of course the leather I just wanted to get from leatherseats.com as their quality is very good. Double stitched joins unlike the single stitching that most kits tend to come in.
  19. Adjustable camber control arms do that. You know I didn't think to be honest. It all started off with some confusion to the Tein springs supplied over here. The ones supplied in the US are 1.5"F and 1" rear drop, whereas the ones supplied over here are 0.8" and 0.4" drop. So I just ordered those straight from Z1 and to make it worth my while, just loaded up my shopping cart on the way. I am one for supporting UK traders, but it just never entered my head for some reason. Probably because it was blighted by rather a large amount of vodka...and shots of cherry sours!
  20. IMHO, stance can make or break a Z. If you get it right, then it can make the car look fantastic....this JWT car is proof of that...
  21. No, I just hate the look of lowered cars with excess negative camber. Not only will it look better having the camber looking good, but it'll reduce tyre wear.
  22. Old thread...but thought it needed resurrected! Just had a conversation with my mate about Julia Reed on the first page and then swiftly moved onto Danni Behr... Danni Behr!!
  23. Christ what's wrong with it then Nick. Did you buy a bit of a lemon? Hope you get it sorted.
