  1. Hi all

     

    I noticed the other day that my passenger side skirt has decided to detach itself slightly from the car - i hope its not a major problem so was wondering whats the best way to cure this?

     

    Cheers in advance

     

    And heres a couple of pics showing both passenger and drivers side for comparison

  2. Hi guys

     

    Im looking for a place to get my roof and door resprayed in Cornwall somewhere, im currently at RNAS Culdrose and have been looking about for a while now but as im new to the area i dont really know whos reliable or not?

     

    any advice would be much appreciated

     

    Cheers

  3. I'll try and get a sound clip tomorrow - then spend hours trying to figure out how to post it.

     

    And i needed to get it fitted ASAP CS, couldn't stand the knackered stock one any longer! and now I've just noticed a sticker i havn't removed ha!

    Looking forward to the Y pipe next :teeth:

  4. Just wanted to say thanks to CS for supplying me with a brand new exhaust system - he really went above and beyond what i expected of him, great customer service, he even rang fed ex to find out delivery times for me! Couldn't fault a single thing, especially with me asking noob questions :D

     

    I will definitely be dealing with him again

     

    Just thought id post a few pics to show you all how its looking on the car, oh and btw it sounds great!

  5. I'll probably go for the scorpion as its best bang for your buck at this present time, does it not matter if i change the Y pipe as well or is standard fine? Sorry if its a noob question but ive never worked on cars :D

     

    cheers

  6. Hey CS

     

    If i do order something is there anyway i could get a next day delivery or something as im only home for a bit on leave from the Navy?

     

    Ive not decided yet if im just going to repair/replace the standard and save for a whole new after market system as im pretty skint at the minute

     

    cheers

  7. hey CS do ur exhausts come with the flange connections?

     

    and KyleR ill put a pic up of mine... theres like a 2cm gap between the two connections, its completely kncakered :thumbdown:

     

    How can u get that repaired just out of curiosity? It looks exactly the same

  8. cheers for the replies guys

     

    yeh the exhaust fitted is the standard one and its sheared at the initial collar, its also looking like the other collar its connected to is rusted through as well so im hoping its not going to be too much to repair.

     

    I'll chase up the garage first and see what they'll do for me, if not ill be buying a new back box and fitting it pretty pronto.

  9. Hi all,

     

    I recently bought a 06 350z and whilst having the wheels refurbished by a friend of mine (obviously the last owner like to crunch curbs) ive found that the exhaust back box is no longer connected!

     

    Now seeing as i bought the car 3 months ago i rang the garage where i bought it from, they instructed me that the company with which warranty was issued with does not cover exhaust systems due to it being classified as a "wear and tear" issue - however aren't all parts of a car subject to wear and tear? hmm

     

    I then rang the warranty company directly to ask a few questions to which i was passed from pillar to post until the inevitable happened... 5 o clock cut off, they simply wouldn't deal with me any longer as the claims department had gone home and i was told i would have to speak to someone tomorrow.

     

    My question is this - where do i stand right now? do i have a leg to stand on with either company as its under warranty or am i just going to have to bite the bullet and pay for the new back box

     

    Cheers in advance

  10. Hi all

     

    title says it all really - ive been to halfords and asked a few guys there if double din units will fit and what they could recommend to me...

     

    to my surprise i was told that a double din unit wouldnt fit, however im pretty sure they do (had a look through the forums to see people

     

    asking advice on how to fit said units).

     

    So my question is - what units do u guys use? what sort of price should i be looking at? and will i still be able to use the controls on the

     

    steering wheel to control track selection?

     

     

    Cheers in advance guys

  11. Im planning on getting as much driving time as i can down there stoker, i was told theres some nice roads :)

     

    Is the blue anchor the main place for matelots then? if so im most likely going to become a regular, i wont be leaving cornwall very often as its bloody miles away from where i live at the min.

     

    oh and btw just a stab in the dark but are u/used to be a stoker by any chance?

  12. Cheers for the replies guys, Im currently based in HMS Sultan in Gosport but im leaving there this friday so no point finding anywhere down there.

     

    I'll check out tarmac and see if i can get a military discount ;)

  13. Hey all

     

    Just thought id leave a message on here introducing myself seeing as ive just bought a Z after months of trawling forums :D

     

    Im mat, 21 and in the Royal Navy and soon to be moving down to RNAS Culdrose.

     

    Now ive just got one question (for the time being anyway)

     

    Im looking to find some splash guards and i was wondering, do they come pre sprayed for the car colour?

     

    Cheers in advance

    Mat
