  1. I take these with me to my local garage
  2. Check that the wire to the triple gauges is properly tucked and not obstructing the centre main locating tab
  3. It depends, on bikes you usually pay a premium when it's a full race spec system (downpipe to end can) even more so when it's entirely made of titanium, so £2100 sounds about right. I don't know whether the Akropovic car exhausts are also made entirely out of Ti
  4. At least I had a genuine Mugen on my BB1 Please don't call your Zed a Nismo cos of replica parts and stickers
  5. AFAIK all th Berks HFC fitted to our Zeds in the UK were imported from the USA
  6. Pics are up http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/86832-roof-re-wrap/
  7. Seeing that my first roof wrap was starting to show signs of wear and tear, it was time to have it redone. Luckily, Steve (zippypooz) was looking for a spare OEM Bose HU and I had mine knocking about after my Pioneer went in the Zed a few years ago. After a few PM's back and forth we decided on 3M Gloss Black Metallic. A deal was made and I travelled down to Burgess Hill to have the wrap done. Trim stripped and surface cleaned and prepped Initial lay of vinyl Then the squeeging process starts to get rid of any creases and bubbles Here you can see the metallic in the black Here's how you finish the edges Heat Squeegee And done
  8. What else can you plate? And how well does it hold up to the elements?
  9. Thanks to Payco for bringing grub, special delivery in the Nismo Juke too Pics of the wrap to follow this evening when I get home from work
  10. Take 1x Steves old Bose, add 1x BM's old Bose, take both apart, swap CD units over, re-install into Steves Zed = One happy Steve
  11. Being an import, I'd ask if the 30850 was miles or kilometers
  12. I have one of those cams that replace one of the numberplate bulb holders off eBay My installation here http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/50807-reversing-camera-fitted/
  13. Good on ya for getting stuck in According to Google, above part is the Tuner Control Module
  14. To me it's not about being "conformist", far from it. I have tried to find parts that are a little rarer than the usual Nismo stuff, but at the same time try to make the car flow visually. Nothing wrong with a bold spoiler, but I think the MG spoiler just looks too square for are car that has flowing curvy lines, it just looks out of place. It cool to have a friendly body shop so you can try things, wish I had that kind of option. Sometimes mods are just hit and miss.
  15. It's plastic rust also known as Fairy Jizz, hence the colour. Difficult to tell from the pic, but I find it rather an odd place to have a chip, certainly not from driving anyway. Maybe it's from birdpoop that ate through the lacquer?
  16. From side view, in my opinion, the spoiler looks totally out of place. The canards....aren't the end plates supposed to the in line with the side and not point in like that? Sorry, but it seems like your styling taste is about as good as your wiring skills.
  17. Electrics aren't gonna go off like in the movies. Fuses protect whatever is behind it in the line. Locate and check the fuses, replacements are usually generic which you can pick up from a local car parts store, Halfords or Maplins. Only if it's not the fuses should you dig deeper and consider looking for replacement parts.
  18. 2K...where you going? I once spent £3K for a 14 day holiday with the missus to Riviera Maya, Mexico. 5-Star all inclusive hotel, jacuzzi in room with swim-up option at the back of the room. Was part of the Thompson Sensatori Range
  19. Once it's fixed, don't do car electrics ever again or go on a course
  20. Bumper is relatively quick to remove, other alternative is to remove wheel and get in from behind the wheel arch liner
  21. You actually let somebody else drive your Zed?!?!?!? Leave the forum NOW!!! :lol: But honestly, even my wife has only driven my Zed once. Same with my brother. Love thy Zed, do not let her abscond with others, for regret will be yours to bare.
