Would you be willing to split? I'm only after a drivers seat.

How bad is your drivers seat?

Stick some pictures up pls:)

can you send a lip to italy?

Sorry, but I'm not wanting to send it overseas. Had to much trouble with international postage in the past.

I'm after some rubber windscreen seals, the ones that sit in the lower corners.

Are they for sale?

 

Yep got them £30-00 the pair + postage?

 

presuem you know they run up behind the plastic trim over the door?

I wasn't aware they run so far up. I'll have a look into how to fit them, then get back to you.

J.

Yes. My car is pre face-lift. Having not tried though, I can't comment on how easy it is, although professional fitting is obviously recommended.

If a mod can correct the title, I would greatly appreciate it.

Cheers.

Afternoon all.

I am looking to sell my Nismo style front splitter. I bought this from a fellow forum member last month and it is in as-new, non-fitted condition. Only reason I have not used it is because I have since bought a full nismo bumper which I plan to fit instead.

Also selling a passenger side arm rest, complete with elec control.

Nismo front splitter - £100 delivered (Will sell for £80 if collected from the Durham area)

Armrest - £10 delivered

Paypal prefered, cheques accepted but items will only be sent after payment has cleared. Collection also welcomed.

Cheers

Just looking at the outward appearance, looks fine.

 

Cat C is fairly light damage so assuming its all OK I don't see why not. It costs more money, but get an AA inspection done on it before you commit and take it for a proper test drive.

 

if all checks out could be a nice save.

Cat C refers to heavy damage. The lesser category being D. I would avoid.

Welcome, from Durham:)

J.

Cheers for the input. I'll keep my eye on it for the meantime:)

I recently put my car through a P3 at the local Nissan garage, for peace of mind more than anything else. Anyway, I got the report back from the mechanic and the only issue he noted was that the clutch could do with replacing. I talked to him to ask what he was basing this on and he told me (in brief) "The clutch feels stiff". Now I have owned cars before with hard clutches, but never experienced any problems arising from it, this includes the Z. I haven't noticed any dips in power when going through the gears, nor anything else untoward. Should I consider changing the clutch just based on what he said? Are 350z clutches general quite stiff? Is there anything I can do (or watch out for) to determine if it needs a change?

Cheers:)

J.

yes can do bare with me

Cheers. I now know what I'll be buying next;)

J

Just replaced mine the other day @90k miles.

J

Just fitted these in red to my zed with the rays wheels they look the nutz lol

Any chance of posting a pic of them fitted, mate? I'm considering buying some to fit on my Rays.

J.

Not sure if I have used the correct terms in the title, but I am hoping to fit an additional storage cubby (or at the very least, the cover) behind the drivers seat. Unfortunately the metal work shown below is in the way. Does anyone know if it is removable? If not, any ideas what I can do to fill the gap?

Cheers:)

J.

Have these sold? If not, i'll take them.

Peanut butter works for removing stains from plastic trim.

 

GTechniq C4 for the trim. As for cleaning, an IPA wipe-down will suffice before C4.

 

The rubber will benefit from being "fed" periodically to keep it at it's best, so Einszett Gummi Pfledge for the rubber a couple of times a year.

Just bought some C4 and Einszett. Cheers for the info:)

£4902.99

Peanut Butter

I think I'll go the baby oil route, if only because my neighbours think I'm odd, and smearing peanut butter on my car might lead to me being sectioned.

J.

I asked the same question when I was looking to buy. I bought a car with 92k. However, it had a full history and only two past owners. As already said, the engines are good for 200k +, if treated correctly (well)

Can anyone recommend a product that I can use to restore the faded plastic and rubber on the exterior of my car? I occasionally use Back to Black, but it's effects are temporary at best. Is there anything else I can use that offers a more permanent solution?

I was considering painting the areas, but I'd rather avoid doing that if possible.

Cheers

Orderd a full coolant and induction samco hose kit

Scheduled in for a DC exhaust system

Planning an up rev and inlet spacer

And Decats

sanded and re-painted scratched trim

Put it through a P3

Detailed the engine bay (ongoing...)

My name is James. I have a problem.

J.

It started chucking down. Maybe it's just me, but I think cars look better in the rain -

Only thing is, I'll have to clean it again when it dries

J.

I feel like a complete newb, but can anyone also tell me how to remove a zunsport grill? I'm tempted just to yank it, but worried it might break off (story of my life...

Cheers
