Now Sold

Spotted a black 350Z in Llanfyllin, Wales last week. It was parked up on side of road for most of the week. Wondered if it's anybody on here.

Thanks Andy. It has taken a while to come to this decision but I now need something bigger.

Been thinking about this for a while now, and finally decided it's time to put my pride and joy up for sale after almost 4 years ownership.

Its a 2007 GT HR model (personal plates included), in midnight blue with frost leather interior.

It has 87003 miles on the clock, which will increase slightly as it's in daily use but only 8 miles per day. It has service stamps in the book up until 3 years ago and after that I have been servicing it myself. Oil changed every 6 months. Spark plugs changed 6 months ago. It's had the oil gallery gaskets changed, which is a common issue with the HR's.

Its got brand new Michelin Pilot Sport tyres all round, double din sat navy built in. Auto folding wing mirrors. The MOT will run out soon so I'll put a full year on it.

Exterior styling, it has a Strosek style rear spoiler, Tarmac Sportz GT front lip and Tarmac side skirts all colour coded. It also has a Cobra Sports stainless exhaust. Handbrake and gearstick is in Neo Chrome. Build history in my signature below.

Any further questions, please ask.

Price £8500 Ono.

I haven't fitted drl's to my zed but I have fitted loads to other cars in the past. The dim wire has to run to one of the headlight live wires. Either solder in to the existing loom or use a scotlok and clip it in

It would be able to be installed in either position as the wires from the timer will run back to the boiler in the loft. It would be more work to trace out which wire is which up there. The easier option would be to remove the timer in the hall and mount the heat link there.

Your choice really. If you weren't so far away I would've helped you.

I installed my Nest about 3 weeks ago. Looking at your system above it should be pretty straightforward. You will have to make up a couple of short links to go from the incoming 240v to the hub ( original controller) to each switch of the hub ( heat on and water on).

It'll make more sense when you start to install but it is easy to do.

Right, after spending a couple of hours trawling the internet for a solution to this, I have found these replacement seals for up to 2006 models.

Anybody know the difference in size for the HR model?

^^ Or anybody?

Hi Adrian

Do you know of anywhere that does this kit for a 2007 HR?

Some photos in my build thread ( link in signature below), of when I had mine done by Mitz at Cougar Store

Please bear in mind that under 70k you probably wouldn't have had the symptoms of oil gallery gasket failure, so bear that in mind for a future cost. Luckily I played the warranty card when mine failed. My car sits at 82k at the moment and drives like a dream. I too fell in love with the Night Blue and frost interior

Good luck in your search

Congratulations mate. Looks like it was a fantastic day

Yep, had the Zonda comment myself. There are no Nissan badges externally so they could only think of one manufacturer that begins with Z

Very nice but I guess I'm biased

I got a can of Night Blue from paints4u just for touching up stone chips and its spot on for colour match

Don't know if you've already seen the Google Nik Collection, but its a suite of filter plug-ins available for Lightroom, Photoshop or Aperture.

It used to cost around £100 but is now available for FREE download!!

 

I've been playing with it for the last couple of weeks and there is some good stuff in it.

Still trying to get my head around it Steve, so much stuff to try out.

Another bargain .....Photoshop Elements 14 has just dropped from 70 quid down to 39.99!!

I love the B & W stuff on there

I met you briefly at japfest Bob and admired your car. I'll be honest and say I didn't realise it was a wrap until I just read through this. Looks awesome mate
