Megs is the one...

Mine mist up after a few months so I will eventually get some UV protection.

I was tempted to get some bits done, still waiting to hear back about a quotation with RT Performance...

Well good news, had a phone call from crashy woman. She's said she will pay and she didn't realise that she had hit my car. For someone who didn't realise she's very happy to pay.

What a result

Well here's two of the images and you can see its hit her door panel which flexes more so shes come out of it better.

She also parked in the same place and I have confirmation that she was parked next to me that day!

(this photo makes it look better than it really is)

You can see we have worked out all the measurements to get the best evidence and give me the best possible chance.

Hopefully she will admit to hitting me otherwise I will be forced to proceed with civil proceedings against her as it was a private car park (still need to read up fully).

I am tempted to drive down to RT Performance as their work looks fantastic.

But only time will tell.....I will keep you updated

I think they designed these rattles for the interior. I fix one and another one starts!

Cheers guys however I do have an update:

Got a quote for £470 but there is some better news...

I took a look in the car park today and parked in the same area is a Mazda with damage that matches my car.

Needless to say I have taken loads of photos and I now know who the car belongs to

Its someone who works for another company in the same building (who we sell services to).

My boss is contacting her boss to see if it can be sorted, we shall see if she admits to it soon.

Ill post up some photos later (no plates or info)

We usually have a secure car park with cameras everywhere as I work in a data centre but there is work going on so we have a temporary car park, this is not so great.

So I wasn't to pleased to find that someone has hit my car.

Annoying but that's life, it was spotless apart from 2 tiny marks on the rear bumper!

I have a very good body shop close to me so I will be getting a quote however I just wanted to see what you guys thought it might cost?

The top scratch is also dented in so will need a panel beater but I know this body shop has an ace one who sorted my Impreza when it had a ding.

I'm thinking 300 - 400 for a good job?

Well I have Tein springs, spacers, Y pipe with a full service kit on the way and berks in the post.

Also a few other bits to spice it up ready for a remap.

Cars paintwork is mint except a few marks on the bottom of the rear bumper (no idea how) then this happened in the car park at work:

Really annoying, the top is dented but its fixable and there's a local workshop that are top notch.

Remap money is going to be spent on repairing someone else's mistake, oh well...

Scorpion is cheaper and pretty quiet if its just a back box and mid pipe

+1 on this, probably the cheapest and quietest. It would be cheaper in the long run getting the mid section, as the OEM is prone to breaking.

3rd this, perfect and not intrusive at all!

Equally good if not better is 'Grand Prix The Killer Years'

100% worth a watch:

You can download it from certain websites also.

Strange, I was just thinking about this today, if the they like the below (without the garish silver by the dials) I will have a set off you straight away!

9.8k

Sweet, to be honest I'm still thinking of a change to a cobra resonated or invidia...or ark grip. You're right, it never ends.

I had a rattle and it was the heatshield to the right of the back box if you're looking from the rear. Just bent it back a bit and rattle sorted!

That's Numberwang! 10 people confirmed.

Hows the exhaust now its been on for a while, still sounding good?

I have HFC's coming soon to be mated with a new Y pipe and my currently fitted Scorpion pipe/box.

Wont be able to swap the wheels as there is a protruding bolt to stop you putting them on wrong.

It can be removed but I don't know if you will have issues with caliper clearance etc

Do you get any noise like a wheel bearing?

When mine went it started vibrating however it sounds more severe in your case.

Get it up on a ramp and spin the wheels, see if you can see or hear anything

Could be something like a bent drive shaft?

Wasso, sent a PM but no reply.

Are the stock levels still:

Gold 1

Black 1

Red 1

Blue 3

Orange 4

If they are Eibech spacers like below then they will just need installing, no alterations to the studs at all.

That's how the 350z ones come and I can't imagine its any different for 370z, I sure someone will confirm 100%

EDIT: Damn you Keyser, too quick

Looks like you have to remove the radiator:

From 2012 thread:

* Remove drain plug at bottom of radiator & empty into a bowl

* Remove upper & lower radiator hoses and also the hose from the overflow tank to the radiator

* Remove 2 screws holding fans into the radiator core, disconnect the fan wires & lift out fans (I found this a lot easier to do with the intake removed)

* Remove the 2 plastic covers on the front slam panel to reveal 2 bolts - remove these

* Turn 2 rubber mounts at the top of the radiator & the 2 rubber feet at the bottom of the radiator

* Remove the radiator core

Link to the above suggestion:

Is handy to know that actually.

You could try cleaning it for a temp fix?

Its cool, I want a before and after HFC's

I will have to get one to be honest, I will let you know.

I have heard this mod provides at least 100bhp!
