  1. Hi All

     

    I've got a 2006 up-rev model (with the hazard switch above the gear-knob) and plan to remove the current BOSE stereo and replace with a Pioneer double-din.

     

    However I'm not sure which fascia I need - do I need the post-06 one or can use the pre-06 )I know that my car is 06 but thought that maybe the uprec still uses the original features).

     

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

     

    Thanks

  2. Hi all

     

    Well I've finally joined the 350 club after god knows how long thinking of it! Lol

     

    Having been a ford man for over 14 years and 10 of those with four different focus - the last being a 310bhp focus st3 it was time I tried real wheel drive and jap :)

     

    Back in jan I posted how I was looking, but insurance quickly ended the search (my company wouldn't cover me) - however with my insurance coming up for renewal a gorgeous z available I bit the bullit!

     

    So I'm now the proud owner of an 06 up rev 350 GT grey - but it gets better it's got the nismo kit and scorpion exhaust! Bargain!

     

    Need to get some pics up but looking forward to making new friends, modding the Z and attending shows and meets!

     

    Already had a good look around the forum and have built up a large list of "wants" lol

  3. Wow! Thanks for the quick and friendly replies!

     

    Looks like a really positive forum which is always great!

     

    I'll have a better trawl around the forum to find some more out - think I was being a bit lazy (read eager) to get the info! At least now I have an idea to spot the 313!

     

    I'll report back shortly!!

     

    Meanwhile I'll find a few pics of "Jaffa" and will get them up here asap! :)

     

    Thanks gain for the warm welcome!

  4. Hi from a fellow South Wales counterpart! lol

     

    Love the car! But have one question - I'm sure I've seen tht car before - mind me asking if you purchased it from a place in Pencoed?

     

    If so - you lucky person! Was looking at it but noticed it had already been sold!

  5. Hi All!

     

    I'm Craig, 32 from South Wales!

     

    Been a Ford man through and through and help run the FFOC club.

     

    Currently a Focus ST owner (don't knock it! 310bhp and 380lb torque ;)) - love the power and what it gives but after ownership for 4 years I'm looking for something a bit different!

     

    Binned the ideas of an S2000 (too old!), BMW Z4 coupe (drove like a wet lettuce), TT (too feminine!), S15 Silva (too much work) - but always loved the 350z looks (and can't quite afford a 370!!) so have been slowly and painfully looking through AutoTrader and alike....

     

    However confusion has struck in! Various adverts are advertising 3 different "bhp" versions of the 350!?!?!!? a 280, 300 or 313? do these all exist? how do I know which one is which? I'm keen to to get the later 313 version and hopefully a GT version (I'm hoping my investigations are correct and this is indeed the "top" model available!)

     

    Can't decide on colours so keeping options open!

     

    Looking for advice, and some guidance on how to pick a "good un", what to look out for and of course - I doubt I'll keep it standard long (couldn't with the Focus!)

     

    Thanking you all in anticipation!
