  1. Nope, sorry. Just try to imagine a Z with Nismo exhaust, no cats, a lot more intake roar and a driver with a stupid grin on his face ( and a passenger with a worried look!)
  2. PRICE REDUCED FOR QUICK SALE AS I NEED THE SPACE!! DOWN FROM £14250 TO £10250. Lovely condition 350Z GT with HKS supercharger. Engine rebuilt just over 4000 miles ago with forged rods and pistons by Abbey Motorsport. All work, including re-mapping carried out by Abbey Motorsport too. 420hp and 360 ft/lb at the hubs was later raised by changing the charger pulley netting an extra few hp and torque but I don't have these figures to hand. Just over 36000 miles on the car itself. It's only been used as a sunny day car since then and never been on the track. Long MOT and taxed. Black Rays with 050 tyres have had approx 5000 miles use. At that same time I had a full service, front discs, pads all round, front and rear drop links and tracking done, again, all by Abbey. Nismo exhaust with de-cats sounds great as does the blower intake noise hence I hardly ever use the double din Alpine stereo which takes an iPhone etc. Personalised plate included in the sale. This is a very reluctant sale of an amazing car but times and circumstances change unfortunately. Asking £14250 ( less than half I have invested in it!) but open to serious offers. http://www.pistonhea...---2004/2172177 ​Pleeeaaase …. no comments about it being way over priced or 'you should stip it and sell it as standard', it's an amazing car that will be a bargain for someone who wants this set up. Thankyou :-)
  3. Having travelled right across Russia and Siberia, none of that surprises me! But that is one place I'd hate to have to wait for the emergency services to turn up!
  4. Can't see how the radio can effect those other functions, very odd. I have the Alpine unit in my Z that Ian fitted, very similar to the Pioneer unit. I had no issues with it apart from it needed a new direct switched feed as the loom feed wasn't up to it when cranking. The pioneer in my Navara works 'fine' but it has got it's annoying quirks which Pioneer should've sorted out before releasing it for sale. It's bizarre that it doesn't work with Android (i use iPhone 4s) as there are two buttons on the facia specifically for android phone use.
  5. Despite Abbey advising against spacers, I had them fit some. Scary, so they 4 wheel aligned it, still scary handling, especially at speed on some surfaces plus you had to really 'steer' it out of a tight turn otherwise it wanted to go around in circles. I still have spacers, but they're on a shelf in the workshop!
  6. Let me know the pn if you find it. Thanks Ian.
  7. Cool, thanks Ian. Is this something I can fit my original barrel in to keep the same key?
  8. My '05 Navara has an illuminated ignition switch, an orange rim around the switch body. It's really handy in the dark instead of fumbling around trying to find it. Has anyone fitted anything similar to their Z?
  9. I lost all trip comp functions on my Navara when we fitted that unit but that was because the trip comp operated through the stock radio/nav system. I'm sure Ian will sort it out, just cut him a bit of slack when waiting for a solution as Pioneer's tech dept aren't that fast at replying. He's fitted two units for me, the Pioneer in y Navara and an Alpine in my Z. Top job both times and great after sales backup.
  10. Mark at Abbey has started a development program for these. He's been scaring the local GTi drivers around Surrey!
  11. The bulk of the Abbey crew has left for Germany today for the Nitro Olympix so don't be put off if you don't get an immediate reply. They're worth hanging on for though. And incase you're not familiar with what they get up to on their weekend jaunts .....
