Will have you got Any links to pictures of roof damage near the window areas? Tried a search but nothing on Google and I need an account on 370z forum to view photos.
Just been to look at a convertible blue 370z previous owners two, one from Glasgow area other greenockish. Car looked great few stone chips slight 1.5" wear spot on the roof beside the driver side window behind your shoulder area but the window drops fine so not sure how that happened also a dent in the kick sills another weird one.
Main issue is its last service was end 2012 but has only done 4k miles since. (Last driver didn't use it much or deam it nessasery to service it =/
Anyone know or own up to being the owners?
My mum of all people said she is interested in it. The exhaust shields look ok but flanges are rusty but no blowing yet.
The dealer is asking 17999 seems legit.
What's your opinions?
Had a look through the 370z forum area (felt sick so had to return quickly to the 350z zone) but can't see many issues other than ones mentioned. Car is 11 plate so has all the good stuff.
Cheers for any responses.
Thanks Torqen for the sex wee spl arms and the rocker cover grommets but poor show for giving me the alignment tool first as I have enough on my plate! =p
Considering the standard injectors are 290cc the 1bhp=1cc is not really accurate, depends on pressure etc. . Stock vortech which uses more fuel than turbos makes 330whp or something on standard injectors, don't get me wrong tricky, I am sure he is near max duty cycle.
Most modifications compromise something about the standard cars characteristics. Not going to say you are always best to use tried and tested methods as no one would progress but it's handy to do lots of research on parts that cost quite a bit of money. Lots of people going F/I at the moment, I just hope they all like to read as I still class myself as a novice after reading every S/C thread I can find on our fantastic forum and the bible US F/I section.
What size injectors are they? The Gtr are 560cc or something, to get 600whp you will be near max with those injectors, superchargers use a lot more fuel. Not rocket science to solder and make a nice job but I do understand what you mean. I originally went for detchwerks because they were plug and play, now I bought ID cos they are BIG.
Finally! its off!
Quite a bit heavier than I thought it would be but lucky I had a mate come round and work on the car for the first time
Leaves a nice big space for having a look under the car.
Now the boring job off cleaning and getting rid of rust, also think I might replace a few more bushes since I have easy access.
This one defo looks shot.
no wonder the back end seemed a bit lively.
Mine is black, just used Matt car paint, holds up well. Did one coat of grey primer then two of the black, only painted the front,top and bottom face. Left the back grey. Not had an issue. Also seems to hold up well against stone chips.
It's not needed for the stillen kit as it uses water to air. I just threw it in to show off my wee Willy. Also I would do your research as you have to change your chrash bar.
Only cos my garage is now too full its spilling out into it lol. Not looking forward to dragging the subframe out, already eyeing up the neighbourghs skate board.
In a catch 22, cant get a new garage until I get the car fixed and out of it!
ChrisB, don't remind me how many other jobs I have left to do! Sometimes I wish I could afford/be smart enough to take it to a garage for someone else to do the work. Probably spend the same on all the dam tools I have to buy
One of another million tools I have bought was used today, actually quite impressed with it considering how cheap it was.
Stub axles came off easy with the slide hammer and didn't even need it to remove the old diff, it just popped out with a wee jerk.
Shame the same couldn't be said for the box spanners I bought as the rod bent trying to remove the last for nuts on the subframe so its back to the drawing board
Doesn't sound good I've had some bad suspension setups before but spring judder? I know you should roll the car back and forward and leave for a day to settle down to its new height, did you go for a spirited drive straight after fitting, this maybe why.
