  1. repair jobs worth noting at that mileage?
  2. had a lotus elise revving me on way back from work yesterday Z attracts em like flies
  3. potentially the car could be written off going down the insurance route ie current market price vs (insurance) repair cost
  4. bought mine off ebay private seller - didnt even view it beforehand deposited 10k via bacs and went to pick it up a week later sold my old car to a dealer on the way to pickup the Z - my last exposure thankfully looking back.... having said that - no issues with the private seller route initially Z views,in my experience, were just flipped auction cars - you may as well goto auctions yourself and take the risk rather than paying over £1k for the privilege of a valet
  5. mine got the bumper scuffed after 3 days ownership - beat that ive found the Z is quite robust impactwise - had a few minor already
  6. had loads of hit and runs on all my cars own pocket repairs running total so far - around £3K iirc just factor it in now loads of scum driving around and insurance is a joke - just view it as a tax nowadays
  7. are you using non-premium?
  8. has anyone left one of these plugged into the OBD port permanently? thought it would be cool to have torque running its stuff whille driving around put off by plugging a, relatively cheap, piece of third party tech into my Z in case it blows something
  9. avg 24.5 in the gt4 - iirc close to mixed urban spec avg around 32.5 on the motorway
  10. personally saved £70 by supplying error code to garage from the elm/torque - thats what they charged for a diagnostic...
  11. elm327 and torque works on mine - 05 gt4

    New w brace

    just bolt it on if the last one has lasted 10 years - pretty sure this one will last the remainder of the Z

    Fuel Costs

    24.5 urban 33 motorways

    Tyre choices

    iirc currently running bridgestone contactisport 3 allround for 3 years now last owner had them fitted - just carried on same around 150 fitted rears last around 10k - fronts 20k ?
  15. which courier company you use?
  16. looks like your Bluetooth holder has been removed - the holes are for the BT cable to feed through doubt youll be able to buy the cover on it own buy a pre-BT 350z cubby from ebay and fit it - they dont have the hole
  17. nah, prefer the 350 looks
  18. cheers, had 4 wheel alignment done already this is a wheel balancing issue caused by buckling the buckling is mild enough that it can be balanced out but it requires a lot of fine tuning by the garage
  19. anybody done this to their Z alloys? current wheels need a lot of balancing everytime the tyres are swapped - obviously not straight but can JUST be balanced out at moment...
  20. point 2 - yes, normal i park on a very steep hill and it requires pulling to the topmost notch....and then another one i always double check it before getting out
  21. for comparison burn around 1L per 1000 miles in a 05 GT4
  22. can't recall when the interval on the timing chain? - is there one?
  23. same issue on mine - slave at fault only discovered when suggested replacing clutch fluid as it didnt respond
  24. yeah, tbh they are cheap cars with a bit of grunt - reason i got mine if some scrote burns it out ill go and buy another...
  25. buy more oil, its cheaper....
