Nice mate good choice 👌

Thats my rainy weekend job sorted - Nismo mk1 full carbon wing from Torqen. The quality of the carbon is gorgeous and well worth the wait. Now I've just got to make my mind up between airlift v coilovers with air cups...

Welcome! Can't say I've seen your Z knocking about around the Manchester area. I'll keep my eyes open😎.

So I guess garage envy is a thing 😆 Years ago now I worked as a designer for a company that did garage fit-outs. Stuff like: wall storage, PVC tile flooring & ceiling, tool cabinets, lighting etc would easily fetch for £20k+. They looked great, but I could never justify spending THAT much on a garage. Found some renders & couple of install photos

Mighty fine chariot you have there sir. Welcome to the OC.

Hi and welcome along. Very nice looking car you have there!

Hello and welcome! Noticed you said next on your list was some carbon fenders... Could we tempt you with some TORQEN CFGT Fenders? Literally just received a sea shipment from our factory yesterday and we have a spare set on there, meaning they're in stock and ready to ship with no lead time attached. Would also be happy to give you our 10% off which we'll be doing on TORQEN products for Black Friday early https://www.torqen.uk/nissan/350z/body-styling/exterior/117734-350z-torqen-cfgt-front-fenders.html?search_query=CFGT+350z&results=1#/_material-carbon Let us know if there's any questions.

Hello everyone, I’ve been driving my 350Z for quite a while now, but I’ve just realised I never actually introduced myself here in the introduction section! You can actually find my car thread over in the Wanted section — I bought the car thanks to this very forum. It’s a 2006 RevUp model, and when I bought it, it had around 73,000 miles on the clock. Two years later, it’s now sitting at roughly 79,000 miles. I wanted to share a bit about what’s been done to the car — both what it already had when I bought it and the modifications I’ve added since. When I bought it, the car already had: Japan Racing JR5 Wheels ISR Catback Single Exit Exhaust ARC Air Intake System Nismo Style Front Lip After driving it in this setup for quite some time, I decided to start making the updates I’d always dreamed of. There’s a long list in my head, but I’ll just share what I’ve done so far. It’s a bit of a story, so here goes… When I first got the car, it already had a Nismo-style front lip. Personally, I didn’t love the look with just the front lip — it felt incomplete. So the first thing I did was order a set of side skirts from Tarmac Sportz and had them fitted. In my opinion, the car’s stance completely changed — it looked so much more balanced. Without the skirts, it really did look too plain. Of course, with the new side skirts and front lip, the rear end started to look a bit empty. I’ve always loved the 380RS body kit, so after a lot of searching, I ordered a Nismo V3-style spoiler, again from Tarmac Sportz. Once fitted, it looked great — but it made me realise the rear spats needed updating too. So I went back to Tarmac Sportz and ordered a set of Nismo N1-style rear spats, which really tied everything together in terms of the body kit. For now, that was the exterior just how I wanted it. After another good stretch of driving, I started to feel that the car’s sound wasn’t quite doing it for me anymore. It still had the stock catalytic converters, so it was time for a decat. After some research, I decided to go for Berk Technology decats, which I thought would pair nicely with my ISR Single Exit exhaust. Once fitted — that raspy, aggressive tone was exactly what I’d been looking for. I’ve never been a fan of the DE bonnet design, so I thought I’d upgrade to an HR bonnet. One thing led to another, and during the Black Friday sales I found myself ordering a Seibon carbon HR-style bonnet — couldn’t resist the deal! That’s everything I’ve done so far, but I’ve got a long list of future plans. Next up, I’m looking at getting carbon front fenders, because I just can’t resist a bit of carbon. Once again, hi to everyone — I’ve attended a few meets already, and I’m looking forward to many more! You can see the car’s first look and its current setup in the photos. If you’d like to see the car’s progress, you can follow @beko.z33 on Instagram.

Your garage is badass bro!

@DoogyRev Nice big space there. You need some Mustang merch to make the most of it whilst you've got it! @Keith D Quality looking set of tools there bud! @Stutopia Decent space mate, nice and tidy too. 😎

Yeah this has cost me just over £900 for 5.2m x 4.8m. They do unbranded alternatives on eBay of what is probably the same stuff, but maybe for 70% of the cost. What swung it for me ultimately though is i've been planning to epoxy my floor for the last 5 years and i'm just never going to get round to it... so paying slightly more for something that i could implement in just a few hours was worth it to me. What do i think of it... it's not as sturdy as i thought it'd be... there's a slight clicky noise when you walk on it. Impressed at how clean it seems to stay though, with all the dirt just falling through the gaps!

What did you think of the flooring? I've been googling all different kinds only thing thats put me off is pricing. I'm looking somewhere between 800 to a grand for slightly bigger then normal single garage which seems steep to me. Can I ask what yours cost?

Don't feel bad, I have way too much crap in my garage.... apart from the big fighter jet grey thing in the middle (although I do love my 2 stage impeller snow blower and my 2 jet washers) 🤣 13 years ago when we moved here I did not even own a single screwdriver ..... time flies.... so does the accrual of things 😂 Soon be time to wrap the stang for the winter ....... booooooooooooooo

I was feeling pretty good about acquiring my first ever garage space, until I saw this thread You've got some great spaces there lads!

My garage is a bit of a building site, I'm extending it from a double to a triple to make rook for another project - something rusty that needs a bare shell rebuild I do like an obnoxiously large tool box maxed out with shadow foam OCD though 🤣

Looks good 😊

I like the flooring 👌

It really was! It's a small miracle I got the wiring for the steering wheel controls right first time! But very happy with the results. I've never done anything more than plug and play before. But this worked well. By the way auto wire stripping tool is the best thing ever! (New favourite tool)

Looks like a bit of a rats nest of wiring. Nice work on being able to get the steering wheel controls back working! 😎

I love your lotus

Looks great! Loving the storage. 😎

Who doesn't love a look at a nice garage? Let's see what you're working with... Here's mine. I fitted the Swisstrax flooring last week. Debating whether to paint the walls black now to carry on with the theme. One for spring when the weather warms up...

I thought I'd prefer the tighter more accurate sound of a sealed subwoofer, but in this case, the downward firing one with the additional passive radiator is more to my taste as it gives a boost like a ported sub for us bass heads😄. So the sealed one now lives in my Kia.
