  2. yep got mine in titanium colour after what just happened to yours and still on and very good quality. Be careful of cheap imatation ones, they rust and lock on. New valves os the only option to remove them. Cue sarnies 'for sale 4 dust caps joke'

  5. This is the 2nd engine we have seen so far with this issue On Behalf of H5 What are the implications are of those deposits in the engine over time? Cheers, Rob. Hi Rob, the carbon build up is the result of oil consumption, and can ultimately lead to an increase in compression ratio and "hot spots" in the combustion chambers - which can cause detonation. further question from Rob here http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic ... highlight= thanks
  6. might be worth chatting to bigphil, he's in your neck of the woods and has experience of various kits tried and tested and sells them too

  25. around town mpg is about 21 but on the motorway you looking on average 28-30mph. Petrol to fill on V max or BP Ultimate for a tank £65 which the Z prefers to drink but can drink the non alcholic bog standard unleaded. No major nasties to report. Yes a very few have had a gearbox replaced under warranty. The problem was solved. The biggest wear and tear is tyres with the fun of rear wheel drive :teeth Service cost aren't major. Max you will pay is around £270 for a big service down to £150 for a little one. Inusrance, is impossible to quite on with so many conditions effecting price. Best advice is to give some companies a ring. Some people pay over a grand and then some pay around £400 ECU cancels any performance mod gains although a larger plenum or plenum spacer is a good one to start and with noticable gains. Of course there are many exhaust that have a wow factor. Forced induction is another matter starting from around 6k Just get a test drive sorted and you'll see if's well worth every penny
