Hi just a quick one. https://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201908181270392?atmobcid=soc4 This is listed as a GT but as far as I can tell, it’s not. I see no heated seats, no cruise control, no Bose speakers. But done second opinions would be appreciated as I’m thinking of buying it. If it’s not GT how much should I try and knock the price down? Thanks 

wow,you do realize you can get a 370z for that money...

 

I would have expected at least a lower millage for that

Awesome Valy

 

Love the side fenders!

 

will follow this with interest

 

changing wheels?

 

Thanks mate,trying to keep up with you on the moods

few interim options on the wheels for this season which will be revealed soon but probably won't get what I really want until next winter 

Sorry to hear that  I have a full door in black if that helps

Terminal hood

 

rs1 fenders

 

zakustech louvre

Was hoping you'd set up another project thread once I found out you'd purchased this. Looking forward to seeing how it progresses; no doubt it'll be just as awesome as the 350

mate I have a fair bit of catching up to do looking at the level of yours

blacker than black, darker than night for this one Valy?

a serious option this haha

Well well well...here we go again 

 

New car = new project...or so goes right...

 

Picked up a 2010 370z GT 7AT in black about 3 weeks ago.Call me an old man but I left in the past any manual gearboxes .It was a deal too good to be missed ,so decided that the rocket bunny 350z will be sold for parts and the 370 will take it's place and I have to say I haven't looked back since I stepped foot in the 370.One of the key things for me was the interior which is miles better then the 350. obviously the extra power comes also at extra cost but happy with it overall.

 

Here are a few older snaps of it as I didn't get the chance to get any new ones yet:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

the only thing changed to it were the wheels , powdercoated in black.

 

Knew the previous owner had a small oil leak from the radiator and after investigating decided to bite the bullet and order this beauty from Torqen,since a new radiator was the best solution:

 

 

package arrived about a week later and got it all sorted Thanks @Adrian@TORQEN

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Next on the list was an exhaust and managed to pick up this setup from another 370 owner:

 

Akrapovic Evolution exhaust paired with Berk High Flow cats 

 

 

 

 

 

 

not fitted yet but hopefully this weekend if my new gaskets and bolts get delivered in time and then will be able to film a  few clips of it and the difference it will make

 

Also decided to order a new MeisterR ZetaCRD suspension today which should arrive by the end of the week 

 

 

This time around I have decided will keep the car static rather then on air ,although I have part of the Airlift kit ready to use if I wanted to go in this direction.

 

More things to come soon

Thanks for organising this again Andy!

well,as some of you have already seen it on FB this 350z build has now stopped and it is a complete break up  as the car is being sold by parts.

 

the time has come to move to a 370z and last weekend picked up a 2010 black GT model down south which only means one thing,a new build thread on the horizon 

 

Mods,it is ok to lock this build thread now,thank you

How much would you be looking for for the rear bumper? Do like the rocket bunny bumper but the rest of the body works standard atm so wouldn’t really work for me! 

I have managed to sell it all this morning so is not available any longer,sorry and good luck with the search,I am sure someone will come along shortly with more parts

I am currently breaking my zed and have the rocket bunny front bumper with lip  and standard rear bumper with diffuser if needed
