  1. only about a month ago. Are you thinking they may be incorrect plugs?
  2. Lol, bloody hope not but got a feeling it will. It's developed a nasty missfire when cold. Ok il do that now.
  3. Hi. I've just filmed my flashing CEL fault code hoping that somebody on here can tell me what it means. If anybody can read them would it be ok if I email the video to you from my phone. As I don't have a clue how to upload a video onto here.
  4. Oh ok. Do you get the same result then? Do you have a link to a guide or something? Anybody got there standard airbox then?
  5. As title. I'm after an 06 onwards airbox preferably with a performance panel filter to swap for my JWT pop charger or I'll pay you good hard cash for it. Cheers Steve
  6. Has anybody or does anybody know of someone having done the Uprev on a high mileage car? My 350z has done 107000miles and I'm considering doing the Uprev with highflow Cats. Just wondering how tough these engines really are? I've heard of peoples engine going bang on rolling roads when remapped and things like that. Can mileage have anything to do with this or are they as reliable and most jap engines? Also, it already has a Japspeed K2 Cat back so does anybody think it may be too loud with the high flow cats aswel? I have tried to search the high mileage Uprev info.
  7. I'm happy to swap my Z badge for your Nissan burger. Will just mean sticking them on with something like CT1. It's only been on the car for about a month so as new condition obviously. Thats if 350 and 370 ones are the same size?

    anthracite 18" Rays

    Nice one. Decision made. It looks awesome!
  9. Hi. I'm considering having my 18" standard Rays wheels refurbed in an anthracite type colour. Was just wondering if anyone had any images of this on a gun metal 350z to give me an idea of whether or not it will look anygood. What do people think to this? Any more suited colours?
  10. Hi mate. Yea I have one if you're interested. I believe it's off a Honda s2000, was on my 2004 350z when I bought it. It's unmarked, looks brand new. Was going to stick in on ebay.
  11. You got your from that 2fast something or other seller on ebay didnt you? I just got one cheap from them too. Had it fitted last week but was well out of shape originally. Hangs a bit low still now. They told me the exact same thing about the 6months different exhaust rubbish. Mines a 54plate Decemeber 2004. Got them to refund me £20 towards having it adjusted. Better than nothing,lol
  12. Great, thanks for all the replies. I think I've made up my mind. And sorry for asking the question in the wrong section and asking the question. I'll search harder in future.
  13. Ideal, I was hoping some people would say that. Do you find them predictable?
  14. lol, well everytime I search anything on this forum all I find it somebody asking the question and the only responses being people saying 'search is your friend' and things. So I thought I'd make use of the forum.
  15. Anybody got any advice on which tyres are the best option for the 350z? Not too worried about noise, mainly after decent grip and predictability, gradual predictable breakaway etc. Anybody tried the Falken FK452 on the 350? I had a set on a Celica 190 a while ago and I was impressed with them for the price. Not sure how predictable they would be on a 300bhp rwd though.

  16. Cat D? Are you sure? I thought Cat D would be no chassis damage? Or maybe they were brand new when crashed so was worth while repairing them or something?
  17. Ah I've seen it around the St Austell area once before but it was just before I got mine. I live in Grampound Road but the girlfriend lives in Par so am passing St Austell all the time. No it wouldn't have been me last night. Mines in a Garage having it's new exhaust fitted if they finally manage to get it on the lifters. Mines a Nismo too with club stickers in rear windows so you shouldn't miss it.
  18. Bleddy good thinking! Only seems to be when the car has been sat still though. Do you think it could get it. I really hope its nothing too serious. Hoping it would be there all the time if it was. Recently fitted a Pop charger actually, didn't happen before that but has only happened on two occasions since. Engine sounds totally different for a minute or so when it happens.
  19. Yo. Has anybody experienced a misfire when initially driving the car from cold? It's happened to me only twice in the last 2months and only lasts for about a minute. Brings on the engine management light flashing but then once the engine is warm or if you turn off and start up again all is totally fine and will be for days. Has anybody ever heard of this or have any idea what could cause it? Hoping its a common issue or something so that somebody can tell me what it might be. I could always go to and get it plugged in but I'm almost sure they'll only read the fault code as a misfire, and as the fault is rarely there I doubt they would find it. Any help or ideas as to what it could be would be hugely appreciated.

    Powerflow or not

    I've made the mistake of having Powerflow systems fitted on 2 occasions now. The second time I was convinced that it would be just how I wanted it. Both times they were stupidly loud, and I mean stupidly loud, after explaining that I wanted it near enough standard sounding but with a very slight sports tone. Also they seem the rattle loads as well. No idea why this is. They tell you it's T304 stainless steel but it seems to be a very poor quality of stainless steel. If you want to go for a custom system then I can highly recommend Longlife exhausts. You should be able to find a dealer near you. They seems to be pretty clued up on whats best for the car and can generally get it sounding exactly how you want. Very good quality as well, comes with a genuine million mile warrenty. Thats going by the Plymouth one anyway. I used them for my last car. They quoted me £500 for the 350z catback. For my 350z I've just bought a K2 system and Ypipe. Got it very cheap off ebay as it wasn't advertised as a Japspeed. Looking at the exhaust I can see that it's really decent quality. Id recommend it to anybody over anything else for quality/value for money. This is the seller I bought from. Good customer service as well. http://myworld.ebay.co.uk/2fast2cool2/? ... 4340.l2559 Thats the sellers shop. Seems to have put the price up a bit since before xmas but may do an auction again soon. Might even be worth emailing him asking if they'll take £190 for the Ypipe back and then £120 for the Y pipe or something. I think thats what I paid roughly. Hope this helps. Steve
  21. I'll look out for you Stevoe. What colour is your Zed? Saw a another Grey one in Truro on Christmas day. Also saw one that looks very similar to MattV6s blue one, in Exeter 2 or 3 weeks ago. Would that have been you?
