  1. Thanks ill drop them an email, im thinking the wrong flange was used during manufacture so i may try to get hold of the correct one and weld it on. What iv done with the dremel is doing the job but it will bug me if i dont sort it properly. I took it to the garage for their opinion but they said its the wrong exhaust which is incorrect because all the piping fits fine, just the flange is wrong. On another note, i was very suprised how much smaller and lighter the cobra was compared to standard.
  2. I was aware of this as i sliced away but id had enough by that point.
  3. So i spent most of today replacing my standard exhaust for a shiny cobra one. It took so long because i had to drill out the 'y' to mid pipe studs. Anyway when i finally arrived at the rear section i found the back box flange did not match up with the mid pipe flange as the back box one was much larger and the bolt holes did not align! Has anyone ever experienced this? I got around it by opening up one bolt hole with my dremel but not entirely happy with that tbh.

    Non GT

    Its all been done over time when i felt things needed replacing so its hard to give a total amount as id be paying for replacement parts anyway, when i needed new tyres i bought wheels and tyres and sold mine on, discs and pads were upgraded when they were due and the rest was as and when, i bought the seats from zman alex for £400 but id say my car is above GT spec now in terms of extras so worth it for me. (all work was done by myself too)

    Non GT

    I bought non-Gt also and glad i did because iv changed the brakes, wheels, sound system and installed leather electric seats which seem to be the main difference between them anyways.
  6. Yep, i asked the same thing when i got mine. Totally normal.
  7. Recieved mine today jez, very speedy delivery and thanks for the drum stick chewy bar :-)
  8. Nice one . They look really good, did you get these off a seller or were they just random? I could do with some myself if you have a link? I know I could search myself but id rather use a tried and tested source.
  9. The autos are semi auto because you can have manual gear changes by tapping the gear stick forward or aft. Unlike some, you can actually leave it in gear and bounce off the rev limiter without changing up automatically-hence you have to manally change up.
  10. Hi mate, mines semi auto and i think its great. Im sure some people will try and tell you otherwise but ill bet half of them have not even driven an auto 350z. Iv driven both and took the auto, i drive it in 'manual' a lot but its handy to pop into auto in traffic or in my case to drink various gym supplements without covering the car trying to change gear. I find the gear changes quick and with my throttle controller extremely responsive. Iv taken my car around the track, drifting and 1/4 mile (beating an rx7 turbo) and its took it all in its stride. Any questions, fire away.
  11. U could always do what I did: *LCD in the cubby (hidden with lid closed). *Connect Iphone (jailbroken) to LCD and HU. *Run all wires behind centre console down to coin tray, which is now my iphone dock. *Add a bluetooth keyboard and you'v got the world at your fingertips. Iv also got tom tom running on there and a few other "car apps" which show speed ect., ill be purchasing the latest wireless kiwi obd2 when prices come down a bit which will stream the cars sensor info right to my LCD via Iphone.
  12. I think between camskill and mytyres you cant go wrong. Camskill had my fronts almost £15 cheaper per tyre yet my rears were cheaper at mytyres.
  13. Hi, thanks for the quick replies, yeah i was looking to do a few mods over time and then uprev. Iv not received the spacer yet so i cant measure it. It was advertised as a motordyne so should be ok to get my cash back. Id best email the seller. Thanks again.
