Like I said this is the best drift car I've owned by miles, and Ive had a few :nod:

Supercharger gives awesome power delivery, has enough poke to light up 265's in 4th, totally different to a turbo and for good reasons IMO. Was able to use 4th on the limiter at Santa Pod on a hot dry day!

Modern chassis makes a huge difference. So much grip the way you want it, was able to keep up, even catch up, to pro drivers at the pod pretty easily

Can't really praise the car enough, if you don't buy it for how awesome it drifts then at least buy it for the noise it makes!

So far it has served me as an excellent daily drifter, however add a cage and other competition parts and it could easily be a pretty competative car. Or keep it as a daily, it costs me 700 a year to insure fully comp and returns 30mpg average!

Only bad points are, as you'd expect from drifting - minor cone scrapes and rubber, could probably T-cut it all out easily enough I just havent had a chance. There is some damage to the rear drivers quater which I will be sorting this month along with all the other minor bits. See pics, its nothing major at all... but if someone wants to buy the car prior to this ill knock off £500

Build thread is Here so you can see the life its lead since my ownership since September last year.

Will get more recent pics over the weekend.

So business time....

£9500 come and take the car away now

£10000 bodywork will be all spic' and span' and alignment re-done within the next month.

I don't feel like I have to justify the price, it owes me nearly double that anyway!

Feel free to call me on PM with any questions, I am a trusted, open and honest seller on here

Cheers

Will

Sold!!

Price drop to £700

Really need this gone!

Still for sale gents

I'll take these mate will pm now

I'll give you a bell in a bit as it's kinda in-between lol!

Also Mark, I'd happily swap the cage for an UpRev map and a geometry set up

It ties into the rear suspension turrets but doesn't go through the front bulkhead. However I doubt it would cost much to have some extra CDS fabbed up to do that if you wanted

Bought this cage with the intention of building a pro spec car from here;

http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=108&t=29951

But I dont think I can afford it all just yet and want to enjoy my car on the road a bit more.

So this is up for sale. A properly specced cage, made by custom cages, commissioned by Advanced Motorsport Engineering. Comes with all the gussets and box sections, everything!!

Made from CDS weighs in at 51Kg's.

Brand spankers, all packaged up - not a spec of rust on any of the metal at all.

I can promise you will not find a cage of this spec for this price ever again EVER!

£750 Collected only

you wont be able to weld in properly with the screen in mate, a fitter wont charge you much to remove and refit it tho.

 

once you get your head round where it all goes then the cage aint bad to do, you defo need an extra pair of hand tho, me and a mate did mine and we could of done with someone else when test fitting decideing what went where.

 

are you running it fully stripped when you fit the cage or trying to put everything back in?

Cool thanks for the info man

Itll be fully stripped and coming off the road once the cage is in. Planning on taking a week out in the summer with a mate to sort it all.

Awesome work as always man!

Debating if I'll be able to fit my cage without having to have the windscreen out, what do you think? Did everything line up ok with the cage or was it a bit of an arse?

This car is going to be a serious machine once finished, can't wait to see it go!

Ill take the pedal mate, will send PM now

Cheers Ian, it's a small compromise for the lack of power it's making especially compared to the set up I was meant to get from you!

Some pictures from the Pod thanks to Mr. Blackett

Should be fine mate, Im now running 18x12 et +5 with 265 tyres and they just rub but the car is probably one of the lowest Z's around

265's on an 11J is hardly a stretch, on a 12J its a stretch but still not massively. When I bought the wheels they had 245's on them which was stupendous stretch I had to cut them off!

So not much has gone on recently, had a wicked time at the Pod last Monday. Scored highest for ODC qualifying and the car performed awesomely

Only things I've been up to has been a little TLC from pod, few minor repairs and clean ups!

One update however is getting the correct spacers for the rears - 25mm effectively making the rears 18x12 et. +5! Needs a slight flare but they sit perfect;

Having trouble with the other sides tyre leaking air so going to get that sorted and try to find the missing SC power :nod:

Had enough poke to pull a few 4th gear runs at the Pod the other day and do the whole track in 3rd mostly on the limiter!
