  1. This is a reluctant sale as I love this car and have been putting it off for ages, I just simply don't use it so it makes more sense to sell it. I’m in no rush to sell so no stupid offers please. I'm after £6200.

     

     

    It’s a 2004 UK GT model, which includes all the good bits such as Brembo brakes, LSD, heated leather seats, BOSE sound system, short shifter, sat nav etc.

     

    It has approx 108k miles with full service history and MOT until 16/11/2016.

     

    Exterior

    Custom wide body sprayed Ford Frozen White

    Smoothed boot and aerial

    Rear window spoiler

    Import rear bumper

    Front aero splitter

    Tarmac side steps

    Front wheels: XXR 527 9.75J ET20 with Yokohama 225/40/18 tyres and 30mm spacers

    Rear wheels: XXR 527 9.75J ET20 with Budget 225/40/18 tyres and 50mm spacers

    Side windows tinted

     

    Suspension

    HSD Dual Tech coilovers

    Driftworks front and rear adjustable camber arms

     

    Engine

    Plenum spacer

    GT strut brace

    K&N induction kit

    Jasma stainless exhaust (with decats)

    Paddle clutch

    Lightweight flywheel

    New battery

     

    Interior

    Heated leather seats (driver seat not fitted but included)

    Sat nav

    Driftworks Cobra Suzuka bucket seat on Driftworks rail

    Sparco deep dish steering wheel with NRG boss (hopefully I'll replace these prior to sale as I'd like to keep the wheel and the boss is borrowed)

    Hydraulic handbrake with HEL braided lines

     

    Problems - every car has them, just being honest as possible. This is a project car so needs some TLC.

    Intermittent stereo cut out (common problem, simple fix: replace head unit)

    Exhaust slightly blowing (gaskets should solve this)

    Alignment needs doing (I should be able to get this done)

    Oil pressure gauge stopped working (not sure why as it was fine until I left the centre console unplugged for a while.. Must be a sensor or something as it's running fine)

    Heated seat not currently working (probably just disconnected, haven’t even looked at this as I have the driver bucket seat in)

    Hydraulic handbrake install needs completing (centre console doesn't fit over it at the moment)

    Slight knocking coming from the NSF lower control arm (common fault with the bush/ball joint)

    Gearbox/clutch release bearing are a little on the noisy side (due to lightweight flywheel)

     

    No spare wheel so boot carpet cannot be fitted (though I do have it, it just sits on top of the spare wheel)

    Paint flaking in places / slight over spray on windows (will probably scrape off) ideally needs a good machine polish and lacquer

    Notes for MOT: car has decat pipes fitted, and airbag light on due to dish steering wheel. EML may also be on due to decats, can't remember as I haven't driven it for a week or so.

     

     

    I realise I don't have many pictures on my phone either! I'll have to take some more.... Here are a couple of how it stands:

    I'm not on here as often as I'd like at the moment so best to be contacted on O77O6 49OO93.

     

    Thanks,

    Sam

  2. Hi guys,

     

    I unplugged my gauges from the centre console in my 04 plate 350Z and drove the car 100 miles or so before re-fitting, now the oil pressure gauge goes off the chart as soon as I start the car and stays there.

     

    Nothing else has changed so it's unlikely to be the sensor in my opinion. I've unplugged the gauges and plugged them back in, the others are working fine and they use the same plug!

     

    Any ideas?

     

    Thanks

    Sam

  3. Hi all,

     

    I'm in the process of fitting adjustable camber arms and one of the bolts is stuck in the bush.

     

    I'm going to attempt to remove it again tonight but if it snaps, I'll need to replace it asap.

     

    Does anyone local have one?

     

    I don't really want to have to buy the Eibach bolts as I won't need the extra adjustment being that I have adjustable arms.

     

    Thanks

    Sam

  4. Morning all,

     

    One of my power steering hoses has split so I need to replace it.

     

    I've got some Halfords fluid in the garage. Will this be ok? Or does it need something else?

     

    Thanks

    Sam

  5. Bot sure on the technical name but I've just noticed I'm missing one of the little black boot springs which sit on the side of the underside of the boot lid. Not the strut.

     

    Does anyone have one of these they don't need?

     

    Thanks

    Sam
