New jap toy

[miketheman2k]

Picked this up yesterday...

I'll try and get some more photos this weekend, currently too busy driving it

 

[samg1988]

imported then?

 

[Bjorn]

Nice....... I want one.

 

[miketheman2k]

imported then?

No, wouldn't touch a Jap import unless I had to (DC5, GT-R, etc.)

 

[motormadJ]

yeah, thats badder than jlo and jenna jameson locked in a basement!

 

[Guy]

im really starting to like these cars

looks lush in that pic!

still nto sure on the rear though? pics?


oh and looks better in blue than the usual silver ones i see.

 

[_Tom]

Nice for a z! Love the wheels...i need nismo wheels! Is that the nismo front lip/kit too?
I swear i've seen it before though?!

Is it standard engine wise?

 

[Tyson-182]

Superb! Love it Mike!

The kit alone is around 2.5k isn't it, and £2k for the wheels?

Tyson.

 

[miketheman2k]

This is the badass nismo version, so its got different splitter, spoiler, sills, rear diffuser thing, wheels, exhaust...

I agree, the normal one looks too slopey at the back, but although its a bit chav, the spoilers, etc make it look more finished, oh and the 275 / 19's help a bit too

 

[miketheman2k]

Tyson.

Apparently yeah, and the exhaust is another 1500 from what I've read (probably a bit of a rip-off for a catback) - can't hear it when coasting (which makes a nice change from the Quicksilver V6 exhaust) but has a nice roar when giving it some beans.

 

[_Tom]

The nismo exhaust is £900. The wheels are shed loads though as is the kit!

So engine wise its pretty much just 300bhp?

 

[Guy]

yeah theres a black one and an orange one round here with the nismo bits and nismo wheels on

look sexual.

 

[miketheman2k]

So engine wise its pretty much just 300bhp?

If that. They're 278(ish) bhp standard, the exhaust should give a couple more and it has a different airbox too. Performance wise a tuned 200sx would give it a pasting lol. Feels slightly faster than my V6 255 but not as quick as the M Roadster I had. I won't compare it to the Megabusa westfield... :quiet:

 

[Iain C]

stunning. great choice.
Nismo kit and wheels make it look the bollox

 

[_Tom]

I won't compare it to the Megabusa westfield... :quiet:

I dont think anything with 4 wheels would tbh!

I agree with Iain. I dont normaly like them tbh but i must admit yours is tasty.

 

[lee_cup]

that is gorgeous

 

[Zorba_the_greek]

welcome to the world of RICE

looks awesome mate!!...........love the sound of them too!

perfect colour too!

 

[paul_h172]

i want it!! looks the mutts nuts.

 

[dubster]

Very nice car, a wise choice

 

[tr1pp1n]

That is very very nice!

 

[Zorba_the_greek]

how easy is it to drift.......or have you not tried that yet :evil:

 

[miketheman2k]

how easy is it to drift.......or have you not tried that yet :evil:

I wouldn't say I've drifted yet, but the back is very communicative (more so than the any other car I've had)....I'm looking forward to hanging my ass out on occasion (but not looking forward to buying 275/35/19 tyres).

 

[MaLicE]

nice car your fron numberplate is on the wonk though lol!

i will hold a 1 min silence for you when you have to get some fresh rubber :quiet:

 

[miketheman2k]

How dare you :rasp: (its the reflection of the house makes it look wonk!!)

 

[miltage2]

i want one, you lucky bugger!

 

[DazG]

That car is pure sex on wheels! Love it! :approve:

Love the colour as well! :approve:

Maybe in a few years time :dapprove:

 

[BREMBO]

F*k me... that is Gorgeous!

 

[Hotshot]

sex sex sex seeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeex

 

[fungusman]

p**n mate.. one of the best looking cars about i reckon

 

[Bezza4]

That is absolutely gorgous mate. Fair play. Have been looking at them myself, but a bit out of my price range (for now).

Prefer this one though:

[Iain C]

[Frasers Cup]

For some reason I dont like the back bumper on the imports. The width of the numberplate and mount make the back end look even bigger!

 

[cK]

Nice looking motor.

I remember having a little blast against one of these down the motorway once when I picked up my 200sx. It looked a "special edition" or had probably been tuned as it had some kind of stickers on the bodywork, not sure what they were. Anyone know? It was a grey colour 350z.

I still spanked his ass.

 

[Guy]

someone asked about drifting it.. a mate had one and he said the traction control cant be switched off?!

 

[cat171]

I really like it, love the colour Apparently there's something like 30 differences between the uk version & imports.

 

[miketheman2k]

Yeah it can, although I hear it has clever brakes that apply to the rear if you use them when entering a corner, and therefore stopping you from any heroics. Don't touch the brakes in a corner and you can drift all day.
