GAUGING INTEREST IN CUSTOM SATNAV UNITS
BladesGrant replied to GT4 Zed's topic in I.C.E & Electronics
I should be at the meet and Nurrish is currently working on mine. -
might try a reset then although from Reading on here it can be tricky to get right. Might have to try and perfect it though if I am going to be adding mods soon.
-
Its a bit much to take in the transforming though!!! Sod the Vette should have used a Zed!!!!
-
So what do people think of the new Mustang KITT? Thinking it looks pretty good myself. I was very worried when I heard they were bringing it back but so far I think they have done a good enough job, especially considering they had the Hoff in the first episode. I have even have it Sky+'d!!! Wasn't happy that when I looked up some of the Mustangs that the 4.7 V8 only has around 225bhp, seems like a waste of engine when you compare it to the Zeds!!! Still this one does look good and you only wish you could turbo boost!!!
-
Hmm, maybe I am being really stupid here but I still can't see the light. I have 3 lights inbetween the fuel and temperature which appear to be doors, seat belt and passenger airbag (or passenger seat but looks more like a passenger airbag deactivated), then I have four underneath which are ABS, handbrake, battery and oil. There does seem to be a piece of black tape covering something next to the oil light (similar to the one used to cover the K on the speedo). Just worried that I either don't have one or don't know where it is especially as I am going to be fitting some mods soon.

Has anybody got any further info on this? I am after a lip spoiler for my roadster but I don't think the coupe fits the roadster with some further "encouragement"!!!

Is there any further information on this, very interested? -
Yeah they are expensive which is why I went for just the ones that I posted a picture. Look just as cool and half the price. Sure they look good but not a lot of bang for your buck!!!!!!
-
The Z emblems have been ordered as well as the new reflectors. Will post some pictures once I have fitted or be back on saying I hve screwed things up as this will be my first attempt at modding myself. Also ordered the K&N typhoon kit that I am going to attemp to fit myself. Again will post pictures once fitted or post when I have completly buggered things up and need someone to dig me out of a big hole!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
Cheers matey, as your in Birmingham can you reccomend any garages for fitting of parts, servicing and MOTs etc that know what they are doing with the Z?
-
Does the JDM have an engine management light? I don't seem to be able to we where it is on the dash. Lots of people keep mentioning it on here so just wondering where it is on my Z.
-
My tires are fine, tried it at lower speeds and its a lot closer. Maybe it is just the usual percentage out but it just seemed a big difference when I was on the motorway.
-
Not really checked it at low speeds. just noticed it more around the 70 - 90mph mark. It definitely doesn't start at 10mph. Its no big deal at the end of the day, shouldn't ever get done for speeding even if I go a little of the limit on my speedo!!!!!
-
It was already converted when I bought it. I have used my Sat nav and my iPhone to verify it. They are not 100% accurate but they seemed to be closer then my speedo!!! Plus going down the motorway in Mondeo at 80 I don't get sped past by everything, where as in the Z I seem to. Maybe people just want to speed past me in more!!!!!!!!!
-
My Z has been converted from KPh to MPH but appears to be out. I know they say they are approximately 10% but mine seems to be a constant 10MPH out rather than 10%. Is there any way of closer calibrating the speedo or do I just have live with it? I just feel a little nervous going down the motorway and seeing the needle getting close to 3 figures even though I know I am not going that fast!!! Any suggestions welcome.
-
Yeah your right, straight into the side lights. Not too sure how accessible the sidelights wiring is though. I already have lights wired into my front bumper sidelights so hopefully will be able to find out.
-
I have found them for 128.95 USD for a pair. Thats about £80 I think at the moment. They also do some that change colour around the outside of the Z and look a little 3D, they are 299.95 USD. Think they would be a good addition to any Z.
-
These are the new Z emblems I am going to order as well. Told you I am a sucker for flashy lights!!!!
-
Thanks for that. Hopefully this will work as it seems to be a strange file.
-
Got a picture of them but not sure how to put pictures up yet!!! Having a dumb moment!!!
-
Getting them from an American company called Z store. They are up for 179.95 USD. Look way cooler than my current ones and I am a sucker for flashy lights!!! Also seen some new Z emblems with LEDs in. They do a similar one to the Z4 where the indicator light i sbehind but not as keen on that as they are on the Z4!!! Will get som pictures up once I have it all sorted, need my wallet to get a bit fatter first as only just bought the car.
-
Mine is a JDM and doesn't have a washer reservoir so hopefully will be as simple, although I am sure I will find a way to make it complicated!!!!
-
Thanks for that, don't think I will be breaking any records though. Not done any work on a car before, usually just pay people!!!!
-
How hard is it to remove the front bumper? I want to replace the front bumper reflectors as mine has the cheap looking refectors with some blue LED lights but the majority of them don't work. Looks a bit naff without them working, seen some nice onces with better LEDs that I might replace them with as think the look of LEDs in there would be good. Thanks.

Hi all, I am a new 350z JDM Roadster owner and absolutely loving the car. Always wanted one and getting a company car helped me to purchase something I don't need to run everyday and for practical reasons. I am located in Leamington Spa in the Midlands so if anyone knows of a decent garage where they know what they are doing and can service and add my new bits on it would be much appreciated. Need to start and sort out a few things on the car once I have some money (remove limiter, JDM Sat Nav, new HU, air intake etc etc). Will hopefully be tapping a few peoples brains on here for ideas and recommendations as to what is best. Grant
