Thanks Stu (assuming your name is Stu haha). I don't suppose you've any recommendations on what style of underseal to get done ie: products etc? I gather if it's done poorly it can cause more harm than good?

Looking at potentially buying this 350z https://www.evoke-classics.com/auction/#/lots/1535 but can see previous MOT advisories for corroded sills and underside. The pictures show the underside but I’m no fabricator and need some advice on the condition please. is this too much ie will it cost a load to resolve, or is this a managable level of corrosion? Thanks all

Hi and welcome along buddy. Nice looking car you have there.

Welcome Along! Ahh good old Blazing smoke 🤣 I used to live in Whitchurch

Hopefully see you there

Just a short trip down the A303 from here

Hi and welcome 😁

to the forum.

Hello from Basingstoke! 370 roadster owner for nearly a year and a half but thought I'd pop on here and see what was going on as it's always cool exchanging waves for the other Z owners I see while I'm driving - which does seem to be a rare occurrence in my part of the world, but I guess that makes it a bit more special

Cheers keith,ive only found 2 pics on the whole internet,a small rectangular piece either plastic or thin metal with as u say 4 screws,mines obviously gone awol..im going to make one up in workshop and fit it....cant see it serves much of a purpose other than aerodynamic.....

Don't know about the nismo but the GT undertray is one piece, and I cant say it looks anything like that. But yes clearly something missing on that photo are there are 4 clips for screws.

Anyone willing to drop me a pic of underside so i can check?? Cant see part on microfiche....

The product you use is the tricky part - but wether or not you should protect Japanese cars from UK roads (JDM or otherwise) to me is an absolute no brainer - YES! My 1998 Mk3 Hilux is like new underneath (which is good because every single panel is dented and scratched ) because someone protected it years ago and maintained it.

I don't use underseal as it can dry and crack. I jet wash and then use Bilt Hamber Dynax.

Hi guys, recently acquired a lovely low mileage late 2017 Nismo and I intend on keeping it for a long, long time. I was wondering if anyone had undersealed their 350 or 370 to protect against the salt on the winter roads? I know it's a must-do on JDM imports, but mine is a UK release and I've read differing opinions on whether undersealing is worth doing or a waste of money? Any and all opinions appreciated 👍

Witherspoons in Edinburgh are a brilliant garage that deal with a lot of high end cars too. The guy Alex there and went above and beyond sourcing a really hard to get part that was keeping my old RCZ off the road. Not saying they're the cheapest, but they're honest and they definitely know what they're doing 👍 They'll definitely be the ones doing my first service and MOT in the Nismo.

Hello, I want to enable to honk noise when I press lock on the key fob, but I've tried the holding the lock and unlock recommendation and while my lights do flash twice the noise doesn't then occur after activating it, does this feature exist on the UK 370z? Thank you

I'm still replacing them heh, but I had done the bannana arms and drop links previously. It's pretty likely to be suspension related, bits that don't move shouldn't make noise. (Neither should the bits that move but obviously they will as they age)

Did you also experience noises like in my video or did you replace everything before they got to the state mine are in?

No worries, not really in a rush. passengers side is most important but would potentially take both depending on price and availability

Not had a chance mate. I will get this checked out for you asap. What side do you require? Alex.

I had my discs skimmed in Cambridge by a real Mechanical Engineer. The dealers call them to fix these issues. After a few hours went out for a spin and some hard braking and the vibration was gone. I dont see this issue ever going away for cars old and new.

Hey Alex Any luck with this strip?

yup those are gone 😛 I'm replacing mine atm, total front and rear refresh with rust proofing with the bits off. Should feel good as new and keep the chasis happy for another 20 years or so.

My Zed has recently started making some absolute terrible noises when coming to a stop and turning. I believe it’s coming from the front of the car, specifically the drivers side. I haven’t noticed any actual issues in terms of driving feel and performance. Just seems to be a sound at the moment but can’t imagine it’ll stay that way much longer. Spent the day today inspecting the front of the car and there’s not anything terribly obvious other than some bushings on the lower control arms and banana arms being in tatters. So I am hoping these are the cause of the issue/noise, but wanted a second opinion from others more knowledgeable than myself. I am going to attach a link to a YouTube video of the noise and some pictures of the bushings from both sides I’ve taken today. Hopefully these help.
