Take a blowtorch to it

Thats what I did with my backbox

And my 350Z x Brace

Now you just need a carbon signal front lip

Haha no, your wheels would of done nicely though

The car is looking great.

 

I had the exact same issue with the terminal on my 350, looks like they use the same positive termincal clamp.

 

Clarks motorsport stocks btw.

Thankyou! All sorted now, I have a motor parts direct just round the corner so I nipped there, new one is bigger and much more sturdy so hopefully shouldn't have that problem again. Only thing is I now need a larger ring connector for my plate cable!

Had a small but annoying issue spanning over the last few days, took it out for a drive and the clocks and dials started flickering. Under harder driving driving everything was getting hesitant, at one point the nav screen even went off. Got it home to find the battery terminal was loose. I know they had the battery off as I had to reset the windows and radio stations were gone, so initially figured it just needed tightening. To my shame I didn't have a 10mm spanner so had to borrow one from a friendly neighbor. It wouldn't tighten anymore though so packed it out with some copper strips. Jobs a gooden. Went to halfords today to get myself some spanners, went to leave and it wouldnt start again. Same thing again, luckily I had my spanner I had just bought to get me home!

Removed a bit of plastic to start looking at how I can get it to clamp more and notice it was broken

So nipped out to get a new terminal clamp job done, properly this time Now back to looking for seat rails!

Looks great. Makes a nice change to see someone go for the Mk1 Nismo bumper instead of the Mk2.

Cheers Yeah the mk2 seems to be far more popular but I personally love the mk1 ever since I first seen it.

Looks good - however the panel gaps look all over the place?

Do you think? Im very happy with it. I will say probably the front bumper to bonnet gap looks bigger than normal, I think this is down the the Zspeed undertray pulling it down slightly as they said the number plate sits slightly different to it after the fitted that.

Had the same front and rear bumper on my 350. Imo the best bumpers for the 350, someone will be getting a very good buy there. GLWTS mate!

Cheers guys

Next project is sourcing some frames and sliders for my recaros. And also to make a little bracket to mount my airlift controller

Thanks mate! I cant stop looking at it!

Top job, bet your pleased

Very pleased man!

A picture a mate took yesterday

Really nice Scott. Looks stunning. Rear wheels could do with being a bit further out is my only negative comment. Other than that it spot on.

Thanks man I couldn't agree more with the wheels. My intention is to change the wheels, though not sure when the finances will permit that so will probably be getting some spacers soon

So picked the car up from the bodyshop today, and I love it! Elliot was a top man again as he kindly went to pick up my remaining nismo arch liner from Slys and deliver it to the bodyshop for me, thanks again for that mate! And thanks to the guys at Legends for their work on the Z!

Fully intend on going out with the camera and getting some more pictures but heres a few iphone ones from when I picked it up.

Just been through your build. Great colour that pearl white. Really like the car. Finding hilarious that 6 months after fitting amuse kit you are now changing it. Brilliant.

 

Looking forward to seeing it once done.

 

P.s. carbon cooling panel still looks great on my Z

Haha over 2 months of that was waiting for the kit to arrive! it will be worth it in the end I'm sure

Aha I'm pleased to hear it! I wouldn't expect anything less

Bumpers are primed and in for paint with the carbon bits masked off ready, hoping to pick it up complete Monday!

Wheels have gone I take it?

OEM plus paint will be basically carbon money anyway surly?

Well done Amy, really looking forward to this!

Got the airlift suspension on my 370 with 3p management. Its excellent, i recommended going for that management setup if you are in the market

Is the rear bumper the same as what was on it before? Looks the same.

 

In theory yes. In reality nooo. They are both Amuse style, accept the first one didn't have the right sizes and proportions.

 

Basically this one is far more aggressive, the little ledge under the tail lights and where the white cross bar thing is, they stick out a lot further. The middle bit is also carbon on this one

 

Simile with the side skirts, they are much bulkier and hang 1" lower at the rear than the previous ones.

 

Makes sense now.

Just checking you weren't starting to lose it!

Haha not complelty lost it just yet

It's going to look fantastic when it's finished Scott thanks for sharing the updates and keep them coming.
