So why do ask people to get in touch if you're not competitive? I have also found you way more expensive than other companies

Hi. I'm really sorry we were unable to offer you competitive insurance quotations. Unfortunately we can't be competitive every time, I only wish we could. Regards, Dan.

Very simple, they don’t want your business as, for whatever reason, your risk is too high for them. Don’t sweat it, move on and go with someone cheaper with the same coverage 🙂

My postcode is fine, I got quotes much lower than them. I just don’t understand why they gave me quotes that high. This year their quote: £1,618.78 competitor: £580 last year their quote: £5,028.51 after phone call: around £6000 if I remember correctly competitor: ~£1400

Move. Your postcode often has a bigger effect than most people realise.

I tried getting quotes from Adrian Flux three times so far, two for my 350z and one for Lexus, it was always at least twice more expensive than the others. I declared everything as same as I did for others but still... First year the quote I got was 4 times more expensive. Do you have any tips to get lower quotes? Maybe I was doing something wrong idk 😅

I've been working 6 to 7 days a week lately and simply didn't have time or the energy to visit locations. I think it is safe to say that I am a disappointment to the community and will commit seppuku as soon as possible. It may take a while, but I have not forgotten this post, and will do my best to gather the Zs in the south together. Just not today

F it. I’ve gone and bought the spacers as well, Eibach Pro-Spacer 20mm front and 25mm rear. Might as well do it properly if I’m going to modify the kitty. Yeah… that’s what I call her now. I’ve also contacted INGS about their N-spec body kit. It’s very expensive to import, but depending on the package size, I might just buy it and bring it back myself from Japan next year. We’ll see. I’ll attach the concept image below. That’s the dream at the moment. It might happen, it might not… who knows. But you’ve got to have a dream, right?

Glad youre getting it back on the road again

Im still tempted but im thinking its 5k to expensive, esp considering its in the 700£ plus road tax bracket and hasnt been used for two years.

Yeah go for it buddy,I have never regretted buying mine,I bought a 2020 Nismo it's a bit of a garage Queen 3k on the clock

Yep i had it in my head £15k due to servicing etc.

Oh that's sad ,illness is not good,I don't think it's a bargain at that price. It definitely needs to be rescued maybe offer 18k

I think its been neglected due to illness and general life events, the owners are really nice people with a hell of a lot going on in their lives, iv looked a bit deeper and it seems to have a very high tax rate compared with future nismo cars unfortunately.

Hi and welcome from a Nismo owner,omg she's looking very sorry for herself 😭 I think they are great cars what's the story behind it and why has it been left to get like that?

First off ,hi, im new here so forgive my lack of knowledge, I hope its OK to ask this , I have a work customer who has offered me for sale their 2016 370z nismo, the car has just over 29000miles , in very dirty condition but to not being used for two years, so basically it needs a very deep clean and serviced, they are offering the car to ne at £20 k , i dont want to insult them but would like to be sure its a fair price, im after a classic type of car for long-term ownership and sunny weekend fun. I understand the 370 is more old school compared with today's motors, I have a gr yaris and a m240i but would enjoy something that won't age ( if ya know what I mean) so really im asking for the forums views on this . Many thanks, and im loving reading up on these cars.

Thanks for the welcome pal, I am unable to drive the car. It starts, the revs sit high (around 2k RPM), then within about 20 seconds the revs drop to about 700 RPM while the engine splutters then it cuts out. I am unsure if the speed restrictor has been removed. Forgive my ignorance but is there any way to check other than going that speed haha? I have cleared the codes, and the two that have returned are P0084 and P0078 which relate to the Exhaust Valve Control Solenoids on Bank 1 and 2. Thank you

Firstly, to the forum. I am sure that I can help you with this issue, but I require a bit more clarity. How does the car drive on the open road? What do you mean by "idling at 2.5k rpm? Has the 112mph speed restrictor been removed? In the meantime, I would recommend that you delete/clear all the stored DTCs Then I would induce the fault a few times, and then check for any new DTCs and then report back. However there are a few troubles with the car. It is misfiring bad, idling at around 2.5k RPM, then cutting out.

Hi Zane, First of all thank you for the advice. How would I check if the ECU’s have been swapped? Oil pressure sits at 6 bar at 2k RPM upon start up, before cutting out. Does that seem normal to you? Once again really appreciate the help.

Thank you for the warm welcome Andy.

Did the ECU's get swapped too as they are different - I'd look here first If not that then the symptoms also suggest low oil pressure, how does the oil pressure gauge look?

Hi and welcome along buddy, I can't help you out on your issues unfortunately, so good luck with your venture. I am sure some of the more knowledgeable members will be along soon enough to help you out. Let's see some pictures of your new cool whip though!

Hello everyone, I collected my first 350z recently, a car I have been eager to get for a very long time. However there are a few troubles with the car. It is misfiring bad, idling at around 2.5k RPM, then cutting out. The car is a 2006 import. It has had a non rev-up engine swap at some point. It is showing error codes P1078, P1084, P0078 and P0084. (Which relate to the exhaust vvt solenoids and cam sensors) I can confirm that the previous owner had it running properly with this engine fitted so I don't believe it is a loom issue. As the non rev-up VQ only has VVT on the intake side, any idea as to why these error codes could've popped up and how to resolve? Thank you all in advance, really appreciate any tips or ideas.

How did you get on?

Has the car been lowered
