  1. Hi all does anyone on here deal with headlight ballasts and wiring or can point me in the right direction of somewhere I can get from. I'm in need of a new 1 as some water has somehow got into 1 of my headlights and blown the ballast

     

    Many thanks!

  2. So i took my car into the garage to get the camber adjusted and tracking done since fitting my coilovers and they have told me that there is play in the front caused my the bush being damaged in the lower control arm.

     

    The problem now is that because my car is an import there is no aftermarket options apparently and that the UK spec lower control arms wont fit onto my imported Z?

     

    Does anybody know if this is true or even where to get some import spec lower control arms asap?

     

    Many thanks!

  3. Thanks for all the comments guys! All positive so far so im guessing im doing it right ;) lol

     

    I like the front end, the eyebrows work with everything else that is going on (I don't usually like eyebrows on the 350z) B)

     

    Thanks mate, well the headlights were minging inside, they had an awful tinge to them so problem solved then just adding the eyebrows made it look meaner IMO :)

     

    very nice m8.. B) what did you do/use to tint the h/lamps

     

    Just headlight tint film mate from ebay, do car light tinting on the side aswell as wrapping so had to advertise some way ;) Thanks!

    B):thumbs:

     

    What's planned next?

     

    Im looking into kits atm, here's my latest thread which is what im after doing so any advice would really help me out :)http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/78902-veilside-v3-or-spec-r1-bodykit/

     

    Very clean and subtle matey - right up my street :)

    Another white wheel fan here B)

     

    That's great news! A lot of haters round my way saying they don't suit, what do they know most of them have stupid colours like pink or lime green which don't match at all!

  4. That video is amazing but yeah so much work has gone into it! Worth it in the end though! I don't really fancy cutting up my Z though after seeing that, im sure your roadster will look the dogs danglies when done :)

     

    I don't know anyone with the Spec R1 kit :shrug:

     

    Heres the Spec R1 kit from Aero Kit, thought the skirts and rear bumper would really suit my Nismo V2 bumper

  5. It's not that fair from RS tuning in Leeds they have good feed back on here . 112mph is not that bad really :-)

     

    Diddnt realise RS Tuning did this? Shall have to give them a call! Thanks!

     

    The other incentive with the UpRev is improved fuel economy, better acceleration due to restriction lift on first three gears and of course de limiting the car

     

    Now that's sold it for me! Could use some better economy ;)

  6. Thanks a lot guys :)

     

    That's a tight fitting garage!

     

    Lol you've not seen anything yet mate, here's a shot of how my garage currently is with my Nissan S13 200sx Drift car behind my Z

     

    79BF6CE3-0691-411E-91A7-0A763F5A911D_zpshqzibkxv.jpg

     

    Welcome back! Car looks amazing and aggressive with them eye lids!

     

    Thanks man that's the route im planning on going down :)

  7. If you get it remapped with up rev that will sort it out it's about 400£, they put it on a rolling road and set your car up with mods and stuff on it or just as standered.

     

    Really! That's a lot more pricey than what I had in mind but saying that I know the rolling roads aint cheap

     

    Where you based bud we can suggest a place to map it!

     

    In S****horpe just near Hull mate, be great if you could!

     

    # It's 112 mph not 121 ;)

     

    Lol oh dear that's even more embarrassing lol

     

    You can get something called an HKS Defenser which is a plug in to the engine management thing - no idea how effective they are as I just naturally am not a fan of plugging aftermarket stuff into the chip which is the heart and brains of my engine.

     

    I opted for the UpRev solution, which has the advantage that you can re-tune the engine if you then carry out other modifications. Going back to when I first got my girl adjusted it was UpReved, then re-mapped after I fitted a new exhaust, then remapped once I had the Berks HFCs fitted and then again once I had the plenum spacer fitted, each time tuning her to maximise the benefits from the modifications.

     

    Not sure where you are but I make the journey each time down to Abbey Motorsports in Surrey. I live in Manchester so it's a good 250 miles each way each time - I think it's worth it as I have huge regard for the guys at Abbey, as they are

    i) thoroughly knowledgeable - you'd be hard put to find anyone in England who knows more about Zeds

    ii) nice people - who actually take the time and trouble to explain what they're doing, and don't mind if you want to ask more questions and talk to the mechanics and so on and

    iii) they give you Marmite on toast with the coffee when you get there (though they still owe me the marmite on toast from the last time I went)

     

    I saw that HKS Defenser on ebay but im the same, don't really fancy just putting something on my car when ive not hear much about it.

     

    Thanks for all that info mate, still its a trip and a half for me just for that, maybe something to find closer to home if possible, saying that the toast and coffee is tempting ;)

     

    Thanks for all your help!

  8. I have searched the forum for any answers but couldn't find any so if there is any posts about it sorry in advance to repeat the question but any help and info to point me in the right direction would be really appreciated!

     

    My car is an import so is restricted to 121mph, I know there isn't a need to want to go faster on UK roads but its just the fact that there's something on my car which id rather have unlocked than locked. Cut a long story short all the lads at work take the mick lol, so I want to get the limiter off :)

     

    What would I need to install? Where can I get it done? What price would it be?

     

    Thanks again!

  9. Right ive hit a dilemma for which kit I would like to get for my car.

     

    I really like both but the only thing that is putting me off the Veilside kit is knowing how much work needs to go into fitting it? Is it a case of chopping the rear arches and riveting the arches on?

     

    Only thing really that is putting me off the Spec R1 kit is that its fairly common however it wouldn't put me off buying it, just need some info about the Veilside kit if anyone can enlighten me please :)

     

    Thanks for any help and advice

  10. In this post I will be updating you all with what have been up to on my daily when im not stuck under my drift car :)

    I spent hours, days, months trying to find the right 1 then just as I had almost given up hope popped up this beauty :)

     

    After a trip to Newcastle I finally met my dream car and took her away and to this day I still cant believe I now own my dream car :)

    6523274F-A8E2-4E1D-AC68-60A88A907689-1033-0000007331C19571.jpg

     

    The modding began shortly after that and i bought myself a private plate.

     

    75465F26-8A6E-41E8-8F91-67C68927F601-6245-00000369043C83C2_zps41cc5ed1.jpg

     

    Then soon after i bought myself a DVD touchscreen player double din, so that's the essentials now onto proper modding :)

     

    Did a little bit of carbon wrapping which is what i do on the side.

     

    D6A694FA-0293-438A-82FB-02A532F7FDC7-6245-0000036718692A8E_zps59e9db50.jpg

     

    My first taste of sideways action

    Here's a shot not long taken after i met my mate Jaffa and our friendship has now let to making a drift team. He is using his Nissan Silvia S15 and I now have my own Nissan S13 200sx www.Noisebombdriftteam.co.uk

     

    F526A5C6-C5B0-40E1-BE46-CB1463700831-276-0000000AE9BDDDB7_zps6fa5d9b7.jpg

     

    So began the exterior modding which started with a new front end which caught my eye while searching google for websites and images of 350z's, i instantly took a liking to this so had it on order the same night!

     

    696D2C0A-8610-432D-BC96-47F210D6CCE7-7848-0000039B06B446EE_zps36ed486c.jpg

     

    So the bumper came and i got down to fitting it

     

    null_zps8bc67200.jpg

     

    Here it is! Sprayed silver with the mouth area sprayed gloss black and the Nissan badge area smoothed out

     

    null_zps1452afcf.jpg

     

    I attended Modified Nationals 2013 with her and it was her first big show so heres a couple of pics from the show

    A few pics taken with my mate and his 300OGT.

    IMG_3465_zps5cbba2ea.jpg

     

    I then got offered an Injen air intake at a steal of a price so this was fitted asap, if i remember ill get a pic up of it asap

     

    Then on here I met Tarmac who was selling just what i was after, i was wanting something different rather than a big spoiler so i went for a roof spoiler just what this company were selling. I got my hands on 1 thanks to Tarmac Sportz and also got the hideaway show plate.

     

    null_zps6e0faa7c.jpg

     

    My headlights were next on the list and again i wanted to do something different to other 350z's i have seen around. My lights had some marks on the lenses so a great idea would be to tint them and give my car an even more black/silver theme and here's the result!

     

    IMG_4274_zps73016dd6.jpg

     

    I haven't done much recently to her until Jaffa came round and started telling me about some Rota's that he had laying around that he needed rid of and he had been saying this to me for months. I eventually got him to bring them round and that night he went home with an empty car, they were now mine :)

     

    IMG_4276_zpsff0667de.jpg

     

    The next day they were fitted over at our drift team sponsor Just Tyres, I was now rolling on some 19inch Rota's.

     

    D77EE0D6-7394-459D-95B7-3D5C010D672A_zpspvdia6mx.jpg

     

    Now the car had a much more meaner look i wanted to continue the mean look and bought myself some eyebrows and got them fitted the same day

     

    8314D4F1-ACCC-44AF-807E-72D2B1D7CBE9_zpspg8c5jht.jpg

     

    Heres a shot with my mates 350z

     

    153C8095-B802-4347-8215-C0DEEDD1E981_zpsf9sp8mfn.jpg

     

    How she looks now to date

     

    A263F3A9-3699-4F8C-A2C1-BD54B298120E_zpsh1solcnm.jpg

     

    Since my car had somehow ended up going down the Clean route i then decided it would be a good idea to remove the rear wiper blade, what a cleaner and fresher look the car now has without it!

    Thanks for the welcome yet again!

  12. So I received my roof spoiler a few days ago thanks to our very own Tarmac!

     

    Such a great modification and all you need to do is spray or wrap it in the colour of your choice and then simply sit it on your rear window glass. I have bonded mine on using tigerseal but most other bonds would do the job.

     

    I have decided to do what I do best which is wrapping so here it is wrapped in Gloss Black carbon wrap.

     

    Ill let the pics do the talking. Once again thanks Tarmac!
