  1. I'm looking for a 370z passenger wing mirror cover, the mechanism itself works and the glass is fine I think it's just the cover. Looking for it in black if possible!
  2. I had a 350z with a cobra system and jwt popcharger and I'm looking for a similar sound for my 370z so just testing the water of what people have out there!
  3. You can't be looking at that much less for a base surly get the gt and all the kit that goes with it I made that mistake with my ctr and always regretted it It's about £3000 difference i'd imagine which to me would be the new set of wheels, suspension and a nicer exhaust! I live on the IoW where 19s would be pointless because of potholes etc (I went through so many tyres in my old 350z) so I don't want any bigger than 18s!
  4. Thanks for all of the replies, the only thing I hadn't considered really was the syncrorev feature, I guess something like that couldn't be retrofitted? Wheels and Sound System/Sat Nav doesn't fuss me too much as i'd look to change them at some point anyway.
  5. Am I right in saying it doesn't have the synchrorev feature? I thought the brakes were the same on them too?
  6. Hi everyone! Previous 350z owner and long time lurker!! I'm looking at getting a 370z, I've seen a few I like but I didn't know if there's any major disadvantage of the base model over the gt? My old 350z didn't have the Sat nav and I'm not a leather seat fan either! I like the look of the bigger 19inch wheels but surely the 18s don't compromise the handling at all and lowering by 20mm would fill the arches with 18s? If anyone could shed some light on this it'd be appreciated as I can't see any major problem with the base model?
  7. I don't think the engine has gone bang and that wouldn't explain its new found Nissan Dealer Service History! I will have a hunt online for trading standards and go from there.
  8. I don't really know what'd be the best way to report it properly. At the moment I have the link to the advert, a mobile number, some emails with him saying definately serviced and definately 60,000 miles. I could probably get his address if I said I wanted to arrange to view it.
  9. It's miles away from me now (over 200 and across a stretch of water) otherwise I'd be there showing an interest in it! I've reported it to crimestoppers but no doubt it won't get anywhere.
  10. Yeah it's not right at all, I know it's only 10k miles but it's the fact its been done at all as well as the fake service history book. To warn others to check her over fully she's an Azure Blue 2004 (53 plate) now showing 60,000 miles... I won't post the link just in case it breachs Admin rules etc??
  11. Hi all! Long story really, but I sold my 350z last year, she had 61,000 on the clock but where i'd serviced it and maintained her myself she didn't have any service history, I was ok with this but I knew it'd affect the re-sale of the vehicle! Fast forward 6 months the person I sold it to wanted to sell it and gave me first refusal, unfortunately I didn't have the funds and he sold it to soneone else, at this point she had near on 72k on her. Now I've seen the same car for sale again somewhere else, this time she has little over the milage on the last MOT which I did (60,000) and also has a full Nissan Service History (which is funny as I still have the wallet showing receipts for parts I bought along with mileages!), no surprise he's also asking £2k more than what he must have paid for it! Now I normally wouldn't want to get involved but this to me is completely wrong for someone to buy a car with the sole intention of clocking it and giving it a fake service history. I just didn't know the best proceedure for getting this person reported, going off their mobile number they buy and sell a large number of cars in the £5-10k bracket and I'd guess this is what they do.

    Tyres

    I'm after a set of tyres or just some front tyres (more urgent!) standard size 225/45/18 to fit the standard 350z rims. Post up what you have or PM me!
  13. I've somehow managed to lose my expansion tank lid. I'm not sure if I can purchase just the lid on its own? So I'm heading to a scrap yard tomorrow, chances are slim of having a 350 but are there any other cars which you can swap the lids from does anyone know?
  14. Possibly mine, I live down the road from there and the time would tie in with when I go home from work! Running a Cobra resonated system with JWT Popcharger! Are you based on the Island?
  15. Do you have any of the bolts to go with the number plate bracket? (i'm not even sure if it has any certain ones/never fitted one so not sure what's needed!)

    Front Bumper

    Hey all I'm after a front bumper for my 350, I swapped my old 1 for the current 1 with no headlight washers (import bumper) but now i'd like to return to the headlight washer bumper if possible! So i'm looking for a front bumper in good condition with the headlight washer bits included.
  17. Properly stunning car! :thumbs:
  18. Hi all! Sorry i've been away for a while! Yes it was a poorly fitted Aircon belt, it had only been on there for about 100 miles and it looked like it was falling to bits as it was 1 rib out on the pulley as Alex said above, thanks for all the help on this Alex!
  19. I would have said it's from the front of the engine near the top really, it's definitely above the height of where the belts are anyway. Sounds as if it's on the passenger side but can't be 100% sure. I am pretty sure it doesn't get louder as it revs but I think as the revs fall to an idle it becomes apparent if that makes sense! I will try and get a video tomorrow.
  20. Hey everyone! I've noticed today an annoying tap/rattle coming from the engine of my 2004 350z. It's always been serviced regularly and has 50,000 miles so not too old! I think the rattle only seems to be there at low revs and when idling really and sounds ok when generally driving along but this may just be me not really hearing it over the exhaust, I also haven't noticed any change in performance in general when driving. I didn't know if anyone had encountered similar issues and whether really it is still safe to drive around? Any help appreciated!
  21. I'm interested in doing something like this to mine, what sort of costs would be involved in a gloss black wrap?
  22. I do love the sound of the Japspeed, it had a bit of a rattle on the tip earlier in the year but this was rectified. Now it's the silencer on the centre-pipe which is causing the problem! I don't know what the best way to do it is! I'm tempted with the Scorpion but not sure on the sound in comparison to the K2?

    Exhaust wanted

    I've got a Japspeed K2 exhaust which is working fine but recently the mid-pipe has started to rattle quite a bit! I'm either looking for just a new mid-pipe or see what else is available out there really. Would like something non-standard really!
  24. Thanks everyone for the comments, I used my Canon 40D and Lightroom mainly to edit them.
  25. Thanks for all the comments Had a really good day out driving her. Looking forward to the Summer now to try get some better photos
