Hey Jordan, Consett!!! I'm based near Beamish. Got to get the cars out for a photo shoot sometime if fancy. Welcome along btw and enjoy your stay

Looked a clean 54 plate with the roof spoiler, some sort of zaust and the nismo v2 bumper 

Well Stuggerz here is a slight update to the thread.

Bonnet fitted. As it's fibreglass I'll be getting the bonnet pins added just for peace of mind to be honest as there is some movement at speed. Shame as I love the look as it is but safety first.

Currently it's using the oem bonnet release of which is holding it fine to be honest but again peace of mind would be to get pins added.

Please close this admin. 

Sorted myself on the drive, piece of cake  

Slight update guys, I managed to drill the stud out myself and have just received a replacement stud from Torqen, all going well Ill have the new stud on tonight. Ive seen guides on youtube for replacing the stud on the 350, doesn't look too hard.

I wouldn't be using the stealership dicky robbers in stripey jumpers,

Id be using a forum trader and possibly go aftermarket LCA for similar price

Well I have just got my car back from the bodyshop and it seems they've wayyyyy over tightened the wheel nuts to the point I couldn't get them off at all. Anyway I tried using a pry bar just to get more leverage and on my last wheel nut on the whole car it snapped and right at the head too so no place to grab a hold of at all. 

My question to you all is wtf do I do? 

Can I have the stud drilled out? Can the stud be replaced and is it a big job for a garage? 

Ill be there with my car club, really looking forward to it at the Peterborough show ground, hope there's not too many speed bumps getting in, always remember a few years ago getting stuck on the speed bumps in my Integra.

Ill keep my eye out for your car, always see a good turn out of zeds.

MODS please delete thread, I feel like an idiot haha, spoke with clark motorsports whom confirmed all UK 350z were VLSD.

Morning all,

After numerous searches I'm still confused as to what my 350z actually has.

I'm looking to swap out the diff fluid as the idiot I'd trusted to change my oils has added some molylip to the LSD.

I need this removed asap.

My question is how do I tell which my car has, LSD or VLSD?

My cars a 53 plate DE 350Z GT Model.

Any help is much appreciated, such a noob when it comes to these things as Ive never know enough about LSD's.

Sorry to be a pain.

Im looking for exactly the same cooling plate, if I find anything ill update you. Most on ebay are from usa or china with silly shipping rates. Would prefer a uk trader.

80% looks achievable, the meeting went very well with the bank last night and we are well within budget. Happy days guys can now go do some more digging on this property and take it from their. All going well the deposit will be down next month when the plots released.

She mentioned to hit the 3400 marker to get it over the 20% for the int rate and based it off the 80% and we couldn't have been happier it allowed us to shave 5 year off it

Learning all the time lads, thanks. Ill look into getting this up to the 20% marker definitely

Ekona I just nabbed a garage drawing from a previous tender Id submitted last month to check dimensions I used to be a QS for TW North east, I'm on the subcontractors side now.

All very good points, thankyou. Defos need to measure their garages haha

Ekona are you an Architect aka the bain of my life haha, no your advice is well appreciated mate always, knowledge is shared

Aashen thank you it is much appreciated I'm the same haha

Thanks all this is exactly what I'd hoped for, constructive advice.

Il keep all this in mind.

I'm a QS so work closely with the trades and standards so I know what or how to repair If needed.

I will defos check what TW cover you for and how long.

Again thankyou, I am set on the new build afraid.

Morning all,

Me an the gf are looking to buy our first home together.

We have our first free meeting with Halifax mortgage advisor Wednesday bit nervous. But weve both good credit so should go okay.

We have done the help to buy ISA which by FEB next year we will have 5k each (10k total) for the deposit. We are also getting 20k from our parents to help with the deposit.

We are debating whether to get the help to buy mortgage or just the 95% mortgage so any advice on this is appreciated.

We have found a TW homes house and site that we both like @ 157k.

The area I'm a little vague on his how much can the sales lady offer - extras etc

She confirmed the house will not be ready till april next year and contracts aren't exchanged till 6 month before completion. She also advised when putting an early bird deposit down we need £500 but Im unsure whether that would ruin the chance of getting any extras we go for as almost saying we will take it.

She mentioned straight away that if we were to put 30k down as deposit that shed inc carpets throughout but that's the basic offer. Wanted to know what everyone else has asked for and actually got and also priorities what's most important to try and get.

I saw a fb post while back where it was important to check the small print and ensure the property is freehold and not leasehold.TW sales rep confirmed already it is freehold.

Very nervous, scared, happy, excited all wrapped into one haha.

Any help or advice is appreciated people.

Beautiful James, Welcome! Always good when another Geordie signs up enjoy your stay bud and Ill keep my eye out for this red beaut

Item sold, please close admin

Afternoon all

I have here a blitz style spoiler from rt performance. As stated in brand new condition, not fitted at all.

Price is £110 delivered or £100 collected from either County Durham or Hartlepool

Photos are attached

It certainly does I believe this is what Ill get the bodyshop to do, thanks

Just a small update the 54mm hole saw part arrived and Ill be checking it against the 370z indicators this evening. Ill be sure to post an update incase this may help anyone in the future or mods delete up to you guys.

Also Strudel that is the post with sizes etc I was going off, thankyou.

Much appreciated Olly, aye they're experienced in metal work but doesn't want to buy the hole saw as he wouldn't use it again. So far Ive came to the conclusion 54mm would suffice after searching the internet over and over haha

Morning all,

I've got a set of 370z indicators to be fitted by my local bodyshop but need some help from the forum.

The bodyshop will cut and fit the above but needs me to supply the hole saw drill bit.

Can anyone tell me the size of hole saw I require to fit the 370z indicator, and maybe even better a link to one so I can purchase it ASAP. Im a total noob when it comes to tools.

Help please haha.

Spoke to bobby singh and revolution paintwork but neither can help at this time.
