You had an M6... DAMNNN I ABSOLUTELY LOVE EM!!!
Why did you sell up?
Buyer of the buckle covers... Reveal yourself!

The M6 lacks the magic and connection to the road that the 350 has. It's full of power and is beautiful inside and out, but the 350 is loads more fun to drive, plus I can modify it without being afraid to ruin it
I am so surprised you say that you know....I've always thought the M6 would be full of character. It's always been a target for me, always wanted one especially after owning my 645ci convertible - which comes nowhere near the M6
I think it's probably a bit too big and too comfortable to have loads of character. I think with M cars the e46 M3 and new M2 are the ones with all the character.

6 PK1173 will fit both early DE and rev up models.
Is the DE generally a longer or shorter belt than the RevUp?
I have always supplied and fitted the 6PK 1173 to both models.
My understanding is that there is only one size of serpentine belt for both models.
The exceptions are pulley delete and if you have changed the pulley size.
I always thought the same, but there seems to be a recent influx of people with the wrong belts
I got this from the Gates website and there appears to be 2 options for '06 350's.

The ISIS should be connected to the Y pipe where the mid pipe on that OEM exhaust will attach, so you won't need anything else to fit it except maybe some gaskets and bolts.

Exhaust heat shield from the looks of it. Rip it off and never worry again.

After running your reg I see it was manufactured in 2006 and the co2 emissions point to it being a RevUp too. This is according to the DVLA, I also ran it on another reg checker and it came up as a 296, which would be correct. Check the covers from a couple of posts up and let us know. Hopefully it hasn't had a heart transplant with the wrong version

So everything from these pix points to a RevUp. If it looks like a duck...
-
Late registered cars aren't particularly rare, and updating the rear LEDs certainly isn't, however I would be surprised if the interior, headlights and front bumper have all been changed too. Not impossible, just very rare to go to that extent.
I too would be very interested in seeing some pix.

Gave Eibach a call this morning and spoke to a chap who happens to own a 350z and is a member here
Turns out they are essentially the same product, just labelled differently to suit different cars. The offset rating is just because the stock wheels on the cars have those offsets, but it doesn't actually affect the spacers themselves.
Phone him back and get him to set up a Eibach group buy on here

If it's just for a simple service, any mechanic can do it, there's nothing overly complicated about the 350 thankfully. I would probably buy all my own products though and make note of the oil capacity to save them having to search for the info and possibly getting it wrong.
As for the tyres, the OEM Bridgestone Potenza RE040's are pretty awful, so if thats what you're still on I'd be changing to something else like Michelin Pilot Super Sports or Michelin Pilot Sport 4S.

Damn I was just thinking yesterday I would love those belt buckle covers back
You got another Zed?! Didn't you sell yours? Those covers have been around the block now haha! You may as well get the leftovers in a few years, you never know...

Yes, I couldn't stay away for too long. Who bought them so I can keep an eye on their future for sale ad

Is there any space under the boot mat for it to be hidden? Or I assume you've checked under the passenger seat where it could sit in the '50?

Try Neil here http://www.rockvalegraphics.co.uk
They do pressed plates, but I'm not sure if they do square pressed.

No wonder there are so many 1 year old Nismo's up for sale, everyone thinks they handle like @*!#
Having said that, I though Stu's felt great from the passenger seat

Are they 225/40/18 all round?

what size hub ring is fitted? what kind of car did they come off?
They came off the rear of my car. Im moving them to the front. Got rota gtr-d for the back.
Was the bolt removed from the front hub?
Theres a bolt on there to stop people accidentally fitting the rears to the front. Easily removed with a 10mm spanner, though.

Thats certainly a strange one, and quite some rigmarole to go through to find it

It needs a clutch and flywheel. The Exedy kit and LUK flywheel will be fine for most applications, but the labour will always be quite expensive.
