  1. Hi, Looking for a piece of exhaust for the Z, it's the Y-shaped piece that joins the two sides together, with the rubber/flexible parts in it. Not after anything fancy, stock or equivalent would be fine. Would need delivered to Inverness. Cheers - Adrian
  2. I'm up in Inverness so unlikely to be anywhere close by - if I can get a replacement motor then I'll swap it over myself. Cheers - Adrian
  3. Excellent cheers, just put an order in. Just the window motor now. Cheers - Adrian
  4. Hi there, Looking for a couple of parts for my 2004 350z: 1. Replacement window motor, passenger side if that makes any difference. 2. Replacement gas struts for the boot, that thing has clobbered me on the head once too often Many thanks - Adrian
  5. Full respray... new passenger window motor, head unit, boot struts, supercharger ... The colour matching does sound like it could be an issue, its an 04 so 11 years old now, I'm sure the orange isn't quite as it was when it left the factory. Hopefully it doesn't come to a full respray, I reckon I might have a bit more hassle getting them to pay up if it came to that. Bloody hassle I could do without! Cheers
  6. Shame the boot on the 350z isn't big enough or I might have! Luckily their mother was there and I have all their details, so you never know I might see some money for it.
  7. Hello, Just had a bit of an incident with kids outside my flat involving a large stone landing on my bonnet and making its mark Before I go and get quotes I just wondered if I could get a few opinions here, I suspect it will be a bonnet respray as the scratches are quite deep, down to the bottom layers of paint I would say.

  8. Yes, I supplied the clutch/flywheel myself.
  9. Perhaps my reaction yesterday was a bit premature, picked the car up this morning and the bill was £408, still a bit steep but I did get them to look at a few other minor things so there was maybe an hour or so extra for that. Oh well, live and learn. Won't be in any hurry to use them again thats for sure. On the plus side the car now runs like a charm although it's going to take a bit of adjusting to, instantly stalled it when i picked it up as the biting point is now lower
  10. I was quoted 6 hours (verbally) which is a bit excessive but given the standard of work i've had from them before I was happy to go ahead with it, which would have come to just over £300. Wasn't expecting this many hours though, I'll see what they say in the morning when I get the final bill.
  11. Hi there, I've had the Z in today getting a new clutch and flywheel fitted, but the garage have taken 9 hours to do what I understand to be a 3-4 hour job and I'm in need of some ammunition to argue the costs with them. I've not even got the car back yet, despite them starting at 8.30am apparently! Are there any garage on here who would be kind enough to knock me up an official quote for the replacement of flywheel/clutch for a 2004 UK spec 350z? Many thanks,
  12. Cheers guy, the RDX one one looks really good
  13. Hi there, Some @#$%&* nicked the aerial off my 350z the other day, so I'm looking for a replacement - not fussed if its OEM or otherwise, new or second hand, as long as its in good nick and fits flush with the socket (I think the S2000 one overhangs the socket a bit?). Cheers - Ade
  14. Cheers for the quick replies - will have a look at replacing the parts mentioned. Zmanalex, if you don't mind can I drop you a PM as I was hoping to get the parts from yourself
  15. Hi all, Well, I suspected the clutch on my car was coming to the end of its life as the pedal was really high and it was juddery and sounded like a bag of nails when pulling away, especially when hot! Anyway, I noticed it has started slipping tonight so time to get it replaced. However, aside from the clutch, flywheel and release bearing (if thats what you call it, the thing that whines when the pedal is depressed), is there anything else in there that would be wise to change at the same time? Also I assume the general concensus is to replace the stock dual mass flywheel with a lightweight one instead? Cheers - Ade
