Didn't say the colour, just that it was a lot more difficult to work on than mine

Hi all, A couple of weeks mine broke down on the M20, it had overheated and I needed a new radiator fan motor which I sourced from Clark Motorsport Anyway, the car got trailered back to Nissan where they kept it until the part had arrived and been fitted. The first thing they said when the car arrived was 'you're not the one who ones the Z with the supercharger are you?', so I wondered if it was anyone on here? Jez

Ordered from Clark Motorsport, thanks once again

Hi all, My car overheated this morning and leaked coolant everywhere, current investigations show that the radiator motor fan has failed, so I desperately need a new one together with a new reservoir bottle. The part number for the radiator motor fan is 21487-CD000. If anyone can supply one new ASAP please let me know! Many thanks Jez

Hi all, Got a problem that's been nagging me for a bit and want to get it sorted. Car is fine up to around 70mph, once I go beyond that there's a feeling of something rumbling on the driver's side, not a rattle but something tyre-related, which goes like this... RUMBLE...RUMBLE...RUMBLE...RUMBLE...RUMBLE...(STOPS)...RUMBLE...RUMBLE...RUMBLE...RUMBLE...RUMBLE...(STOPS)...RUMBLE...RUMBLE...RUMBLE...RUMBLE...(STOPS) It's not a stone in the tyre and the car feels planted as it should to the road. Now I got the geometry checked out last year and put back within limits (as I'd upgraded to 19's), but they didn't balance the wheels as they didn't believe they needed balancing, how you can tell this without actually testing them I have no idea. Has anyone else had a similar issue? Thanks Jez

Hi all, After six months of driving a £200 Peugeot 206 (meant for the winter we never had!), I've just paid out this afternoon for 12 months fresh tax and insurance starting 1st April woooooo hooooo!!! Cannot wait to get her back on the road, she's been SORN since September and all I've been able to do is wash her once a week. The Peugeot has been great from an economy point of view, but realised last week that it's been economy at the expense of everything else, one of the engine mounts has gone, the exhaust is blowing and the parcel shelf rattles above 50mph Since she's been sat around, I've replaced the dodgy cone filter with the factory box (and new panel filter), new Milltek exhaust, eventually managed to get hold of a set of facelift headlights which have been fitted (taking the bumper off is scary stuff), and replaced the smoked amber side reflectors with some proper orange ones (I've got some clear ones but prefer the orange, strange eh?) And to top it all off, I've bought a Flex rotary polisher and have booked Ed at Divine Detail to spend the day detailing the car at the end of next month. Soooooo excited, can't wait Jez

I'd be interested in a group buy if a 350Z option is available Jez

What is the secret wax?

You forgot add its one of those rare Nissians you don't see very often :laugh

That will be expensive I'm afraid, I know from experience. Mine had two hairline fractures in it, you can source a brand new one from ZMANALEX, but it involves dropping the rear diff out and a lot of suspension work so a garage might be your best bet.

I couldn't find a poll for the above so I thought I'd put one together Jez

Hi all, My car has been in storage for the winter months since September last year and plan on bringing her back out for the start of April. Question is, I had a P3 service done late August, do I need another before it comes back out, change the oil, spark plugs, etc, or will it be fine? More than happy to pay for a P1 if you guys think it'd be a good idea. Thanks Jez

I'm fairly certain super unleaded contains all the necessary additives, I think redex has always been termed as snake-oil by those in the know, I'm sure someone more technical on here will substantiate that.

No, I haven't take my bumper off yet, I'm too afraid!

I'm not wrong, yay That's what I found, which made me think I have to remove the front bumper, that pic makes it a lot easier to visualise.

That would be great if you could, just doesn't seem obvious to me for some reason!

Cheers guys I thought it went in from the bumper side, I've tried all ways to maneuver it in but just can't, so looks to me like a bumper off job. Jez

Hi all, In the above below, does part 11 fit from the inside of the car (and if so how!?), or does the bumper need to come off to do it from the other side? I've recently reverted back to an OEM airbox and it's the only part I have left to fit, but struggling to work out whether it's fitted from the engine side or the bumper side. Any help much appreciated Jez

I've been struggling with this a bit today... I've got a DE, all fine up until the following Bolts 14 and 21, seem to be far far too long, I tried several times on both and got to the point where I wasn't prepared to force them in so have left them for now, can anyone else can tell me if they've managed okay (I don't have a plenum spacer of any sort). Bolts 15 and 16 will require the use of an allen key as there's not much in the way of room to screw them down. Bolt 20, the head of the existing bolt sheared off this morning and although I disconnected the coolant bottle to try and get some leverage of what was left of the bolt from the other side, it seems to go through a nut of some sort and I've broken three drill bits trying to drill it out, again have no choice but to try again later. Bolt 19 is a pig to get to, be very careful you don't drop it which is what happened to me, so I'll have to remove the undertray to get to it before the car comes back out of the garage (it's been sorn since last September). Really pleased with the way it's looking so far,didn't realise quite how long it would take though!!

I'm also looking for the following: 80961CD700 80960CD700

I'm specifically after the following (for now): 93130CD000 93132CD000 93133CD000

Evening all, I think I may have asked this at some point last year - if I had some part numbers for some interior parts I wanted to buy, who would I ask? I'm not talking used, second-hand, refurbished - I mean brand new OEM parts as a Nissan dealer would sell you. I've got some interior part codes I need to order so wondered if anyone could help. Thanks Jez

Hi all, I'm looking for a working pair of bi-xenon headlights, the headlights that were standard on the 2006 onwards models. I'm at the top of ZMANALEX's list but thought I'd ask. Willing to pay up to £800 for the pair. Thanks Jez

I'm currently running with standard except for a milltek exhaust, what would be the next logical thing to purchase if I wanted to get an Uprev booked later on this year?

Me too, I've paid! Thanks Jez
