Hi Neil,
Many thanks for getting back to me on this!
All tyres are on 35 psi or close however the problem still persists. I think when i have the money together a full set of good tyres is a must!
With regards to the roll bar drop links is there a way of testing to see if thos is the problem?
Cheers buddy

Here she is getting a clean

Hi guys!
After 3 days of driving my new 350 ive done about 250 miles and am absolutely loving it so far! There are a couple of negatives however:
• The tyres on the car are the worst i have ever seen/ driven. Fullrun on the rear and avons on the front. In the dry they seem fine however in the wet the rears lose grip very easily. If im going round a corner and i put my foot back on the gas the back end will slip out. Even if i floor it in a straight line in the wet the back end will twitch! Pretty scary stuff!
• I find it pretty hard to get back into 2nd and 1st when slowing at a junction. However i have heard this is normal with the Z?
• i think the rear shock absorber has gone as there is a fairly loud rattle coming from the rear corner. How do i find out if it is the shock absorber?
Apart from these little things the car is absolutely awsome All i want to do is just drive it 24/7!
Let me know what you guys think!

Welcome .
21 year old!! Insurance company must love you...LOL.
Mines has milltek and they are very quiet - but throw on some HFC or decats and it transforms the sound.
Haha i thought the price would be crazy however i am pretty happy with £1200 pa considering i only have 1 years ncb .
Ive heard alot about hfc! Sounds like they are a great investment
Thanks again

The Milltek sounds different to the OEM exhaust - it's a matter of opinion whether it is better. I think it is.
However, if you add in High Flow Cats and maybe a JWT Pop Charger as well......now you've got a proper noise The advantage being that when you give it the beans it makes a great sound but when you are on lower throttle openings or on the motorway it's not droning away. The perfect solution as far as I'm concerned.
(PS. you should have an Uprev re-map if you have the above done - particularly the HFCs)
Hi Neil and many thanks for all the info! Ive heard that the pop charger is a must have and would very much like to get one! How would i know if the car has been fitted with either of these things already? (Fingers crossed for the cats)
Also i have hear that a re map isnt a great idea on Z's as they have already been maxed. Is this correct?
Cheers for all the welcomes again and advice with the parts

Thanks for they welcome guys! I live in brentwood please let me know if any of you are close as i would love to see other great examples!
I forgot to mention that the car came with a milltek exhaust which i think sounds absolutely amazing! However have seen people saying they dont sound that much different to the oem exhaust. What do you guys think?
Cheers again

Hi everyone!
I just wanted to introduce myself and hopefully get to know you all!
I have just taken a huge step (for me) and put down a deposit for a 2004 gunmetal grey Z! It has got 77k on the clock however the dealership offer lifetime warrenty on all mechanical parts and electrics etc! Im 21 and feel really lucky to be able to get a car soo.. Welll... Awsome!!!
I do however have bad news! I have to wait till Sunday to pick her up so this is going to be the slowest week of my life haha!
I will hopefully get some pics up as soon as i can to show you guys.
Anyway i just wanted to show my face and hopefully meet some great people
Cheers,
Jordan

I think i may have to take it to a garage for them to have a look as i think they may do a better job at finding the problem haha!
I have heard very good things about the supersports tyres and would probably go for those! However the cheapest i have seen is £169 each! So would be almost £700 on tyres. Does that seem expensive to you?
