  1. Hi Guys Am looking to get a spoiler for the car, quite like the nismo but not a fan of the bottom bit not being flush with the boot. Been looking today and found this spoiler on ebay: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NISSAN-350Z-B ... 2eb6477302 What is this spoiler ? Am i correct in saying this goes over the standard boot spoiler fitted to my car ? As you can see the standard lip still there. Cheers, Jack
  2. Yeh Its brilliant, loving life with torque. Looking to get some things sorted out with it, some allready started in the tech section: Rear axle knocking noise Occasional front left bush knocking Fuel gauge fluctuation Weird engine noise when running cold and accelerating None of the faults are particularly bad or annoying (part for fuel one) but I just want an efficient 350z Modifications lined up 1. Carbon fiber front splitter 2. Gas strut hood 3. Wrap the roof black 4. Tint the windows
  3. I Found the problem http://my350z.com/forum/maintenance-and ... -fill.html Rather common apparently. Not sure if im brave enough to do this myself though
  4. Hi I have a 2003 350z Gt Not even had the car a week but am having problems, loving the car to bits though. Ok so the dash fuel gage goes up and down randomly, speed dependent, hill dependent, time drive dependent. Today after football training the gauge red zero with orange light etc, dte estimating 76 miles left. I drove off regardless as i knew it had enough fuel in. Over the course of 10 minutes it slowly, very slowly raised back up to 3/8 of a tank. Whats wrong with its accuracy, it literally will be on 1/4 then go to 1/2 and back again ? I have searched the forums a bit but most peoples problems are it not registering a full tank, nothing like my problem. Thanks in advance, Jack
  5. Hi, Realised I dont have one, its the bit that goes on the top grill, plugging into the front towing point of the car. Anyone ? Thanks
  6. Which part is the ballast ? Also do you know any guides to removing everything etc, Ive looked in the service manual but its a bit vague. Like a walkthrough picture guide ? Also because of the fading light I was unable to get the spring clip on, whats the procedure for that ? Cheers, am new to the 350z
  7. Hi So just picked up the car on Saturday, got home and went to drive at night time. Bloody typical, the dipped D/S xenon doesn't start up. Seller had no idea about it and I feel particularly stupid for not checking prior to purchase. I have had the bulb out today to inspect it, looks ok though there is a dark grey area on the bulb. When the lights are turned on it flickers for about a second then turns off. I have checked the two 15A fuses ( any more fuses ?) and they are ok. What wrongs ? Thanks for the help Jack
  8. Looks like im buying a 350Z !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Went and saw the one listed above, loved it, looked amazing, picking up on Saturday !! Cant wait
  9. Did you used to have the rx7 at santapod ? Remember ages ago seeing this and you advertised it for sale as the car from tokyo drift
  10. 5th gear did the shootout between the two and the 350z blitzd it
  11. Ah right, Has anyone got project threads where theyve wrapped the roof ? Or fitted eye brows ? normally hate them but think they look quite nice
  12. Hi, Well have been in touch and am going to see it/maybe buy it in 3 weeks, its a bit far from me and will be driving up his direction to a wedding anway. Initial haggling has been sucessful.. buts its a secret I got hold of some photos in high res. : Is there a scratch on the back of the side skirt ? I did ask about it and he said: "The scratch as you refer to is not actually a scratch its like a perspex covering, protection I guess." In general I really like the mods, not a single one I would remove. Fancy tinting the rear window and maybe a bigger spoiler, not sure :S
  13. LOL I wish i had said that in my statement. Im responsible now, was an idiot back then. Fair, well i shall keep this thread updated, would love a 350z
  14. Cheers, So you dont think I could get down to 7000-maybe 7200 ? Looking for ammo to use when i speak to him, suggestions ? Well am awaiting a reply from him. Ive previously been on sky insurance, anyone 23 with a 350z similar, what you paying ? Bad news is I have 6 points From 2009 when I was a bit silly. I was trying to go back to the future.
  15. Cheers for the link, bumper doesnt look like its been colour matched very well. How long do my posts keep getting postponed because staff have got to approve ?
  16. Ha, good spot. Im a pretty good haggler (touch wood) but I dont know what sort of offer would be best ? price suggestion. Reason being I know its had some nice mods etc but comparing to autotrader pistonheads etc it just seems to be a bit high. whats the max mileage of it ? know its how its been treated etc ...
  17. Ah the buddy system, yeh Ive done that before. Whats the average max mileage that you get with them ?
  18. Hi Nice to get a welcome, rather a keen forum guy myself, always on celica-club. Ive always wanted a supercharged celica gt after i got my 140. I managed to get hold of a 2nd hand greddy but its come to the point that now I can just about afford it.....I want a 350z instead. Is the car overpriced ? Going to see it in 2 weeks. Nearer the time I will on here asking for all the things to look out for etc.
  19. Hi, Im Jack, 23 (in 2 weeks), Currently studying engineering at Loughborough university. Done a placement working with HKS, best job of my life to date. Currently got a Toyota Celica 140, looking to get a 350z! Wondering if you could give me advice, specifically about this car Ive got my eye on: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... 500wt_1156 Dont know why but I love the air duct and debadge and the alloys look brilliant. I think its a bit over priced hence why I wanted to talk about it on here. LOL, I also looked at another one, got in contact to the seller about the aftermarket exhaust asking what it was. He didnt know, to which I said could he take a photo, reply: "I cant be arsed" ...does he want to sell his car..idiot Anyway, thanks for the help in advance. I would say I have a 6-7k limit but looking to get a manual, gt wheels or aftermarkets.
