  1. Haha, well I suppose its down to personal preference then! I have seen an N1 kit 350Z in Azure that looks much better with the OEM number plate holder imo.

     

    At least with some thinking its better with and some without, theres plenty of spare holders around :D hehe

  2. Thanks for all the replies :) Some excellent advice

     

    I need to contact the previous owner to find out which oils he used, but I know the gearbox and diff fluids were changed within the last 6 months.

     

    Could be exactly what you said Stew, as I've only owned the car since the beginning of the month, so I have no idea what its like in warmer weather.

  3. Hi all,

     

    Recently purchased a 350z from a forum member (I still need to put up pics, its been crap weather and need to clean the car majorly first, that's my excuse lol). Sorry if this has already been covered, I couldn't find much in the search.

     

    The only problem I'm having at the moment is that when the car is cold, it is very hard to select 2nd gear. 1st will go in OK when you are stopped/near stopped. And if you change from 1st to 3rd it goes in fine, and will select every other gear no problems. When the car warms up, it will then go into 2nd OK, its still a little notchy but if you get it in the right place it will go in fine.

     

    Now the clutch is at end of life. It is still working fine currently, and will only smell if you are naughty with it :blush: However the biting point is at the top of the pedal. Would this be part of the cause?

     

    Also I have read about the new slave cylinder, fluid, and braided line mod which improves gear change, is that a possible cure for this problem? Or do I have a different problem as all other gears seem perfect?

     

    Thanks in advance for any insight on the issue :)

  4. You will probably need to enable Network Discovery on the Windows 7 PCs. Its under Advanced Sharing Options in the Network and Sharing Center :)

     

    I would just add the printer via its fixed IP address on the Windows 7 PCs. Go to Devices & Printers, Add Printer, choose Local Printer, when it asks for a port, choose TCP/IP Port, type the IP Address, it will then communicate with the printer and may even have a driver ready, if not just download one from Konica's website :)

  5. Just done this mod on our new Zed.

     

    One word - amazing!!! :D

     

    Before the pedal was very high and the bite was too obviously. Now the clutch pedal is level with the brake pedal, and the bite & pedal feel totally normal :) We have got a clutch from Zman to fit in the new year too, so it should be excellent then :D

     

    Took me about 30 minutes after looking at the guide. That included removing the ECU to gain access to the cruise control sensor so I could adjust it correctly. I think the hardest part is getting yourself situated under the dash lol - back ache anyone?

     

    Top marks to D4XNY for the excellent guide :thumbs:

  6. We got one of these for Christmas :)

     

    Ours is red with the Nismo N1 kit already on it hehe :D

     

    Was it like this? This just turned up today:
