  1. Injectors now reduced to £180 ono Here's the ebay add for closer up photos: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/161785031121
  2. I don't think the Z is better looking especially than the R3. Not saying the RX8 is better than the Z but they both look equally as good in their own ways.
  3. They're both great cars and both have unique attributes which make them a joy to drive. I had 2 192 RX8s before I brought my Z. The Z has more power and it's a bit better on fuel so it's a no a brainier Or at least I thought. To be honest, the Z didn't feel that much faster although it is, it's power is more linear so it can be deceiving. Not one of my passengers ever said it 'felt' faster than my RX8 (it was). It's a 2nd car so the fuel wasn't an issue. After about a year I found myself getting bored. I sold my Z and was going to get a 370 but then after I test drove one it didn't feel much faster than my 350 @ 289bhp. I think you need to go FI to get that 'oh sh1t' feeling when you put your foot down (can't afford that to do that to a 370). Then I test drove an R3 RX8, although it doesn't feel as fast, it handles like it's on rails and revs to 9.5k like it loves every second of it. The gearbox is so tight and precise. I just got more joy driving it than any of my other cars inc the Z and 2 192s RX8s. It's something you need to experience before you say, 'oh they drink fuel, oil or they need rebuilding every 40000 miles' (not true). I ended up going back to the RX8 and getting the R3 model this time. If I had the money, I'd have both cars. Not my car (below) but the same apart from LHD.
  4. Now that I've sold my car I no longer require these parts that I was intending to use towards a supercharger build. I brought off another member (simon da silva) on here about 5 months ago. Bosch EV14 550cc injectors including pigtails all in perfect working order. They would cost £400 brand new and you'd need to import them. - £180 ono inc delivery. Ebay add for close up photos: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/161785031121 SOLD Uprev GT Maf - This has only covered 2000km and is in perfect working order. They cost £350 plus delivery brand new in the uk http://www.h-dev.co....oducts_id=25514 - £275 inc delivery. SOLD The standard 350z MAF and injectors are not suitable for forced induction and need to be upgraded. These are quality parts that are right for the job.
  5. And it's sold to the first viewer I feel gutted as I was in 2 minds but I suppose now I get to look for a new car. Mods, can you lock the thread please.
  6. You sure sound like the right man to own it! I'll keep mine crossed too!
  7. I'll still take it as a positive comment! I hope you do you buy it as I'd want the new owner to appreciate it as much as I do.
  8. Some Ebayers just love watch stuff I guess I get it too. Sods law.
  9. Yeah thanks for that Will. He likes it even though it's not black. He's sent me a couple of PMs back but he's currently moving jobs and waiting to hear if he's allowed to spend my car allowance on a two seater.
  10. Always the way mate! It might be around for a bit though as I'm only advertising it on here and maybe most the interested parties live too far away.
  11. Thanks alot mate. I've had a couple of PMs too. Someone might be coming to look on Sunday. Not sure whether to happy or sad
  12. Cheer mate. I've only had it since August myself. Just seeing what the interest is and if the right buyer comes up I can upgrade to a 370, I'll be sad to see it go but I'd be happy to keep it if it doesn't sell.
  13. It's a fair question Keith, you're not being thick. It's actually an old V reg plate. The 2006 plates were XX06 or XX56.
  14. Cheers! I did take my time and used some old mod posts to gather content. Not sure I want to sell it after listing everything but I'm sure I like the 370z a little bit more after testing driving one (I knew I shouldn't do that!). Forgot to mention it's had new exhaust from the cats down at some point. There wasn't an invoice in the history but the previous owner told me it had one and it does still look fairly new and the are stickers still on it.
  15. General Spec Mileage is 86165 (may rise slightly) Full service history (8/10 Nissan stamps. All P1s, P2s, P3s done in correct order). Thick folder of invoices. No expense has been spared by myself or previous owners. MOT expires June 8th 2015 but I will add 12 months if buyer pays asking price. Original service book, two keys plus valet key and all manuals. 2004 UK model (Full GT Pack) - lower tax bracket (£285 per year) V6 AVV – Private number plate (Can be included if asking price met) Brembo brake callipers, grooved & dimpled discs & yellow stuff pads front and back. Xenon headlights & headlight wash Black leather heated seats with electronic adjustment (GT Pack) Climate control/Cruise control/Electric/heated/folding mirrors/Electric Windows/Metal Pedals Immaculate 18" Rays Engineering Alloys professionally redone in Gun Metal Grey with Z tyre caps. Factory fitted Reverse sensors. HD Reverse camera which automatically kicks in on headunit screen when reverse is selected. Works very nicely with the sensors for trouble free reversing. Factory fitted Sat Nav Front/rear colour coded mud flaps. Front tyres - Vredestein Ultra Sessanta with approx 7.8mm tread (new tyres have 8mm) Rears Bridgestone Potenzas RE050A with approx 6.3mm tread. New battery fitted 01/03/15 New exhaust from the cats down at some recent point. There wasn't an invoice in the history but the previous owner told me it had one and it does still look fairly new and the stickers are still on it. Performance It has 288.4 bhp at the flywheel (compared to approx 265 bhp it has as standard) after a UpRev remap by 350z specialist, Horsham Developments. This cost £1175 and included supplying and fitting a Plenum spacer, Berks High Flow Catalytic Converters and a Cosworth Panel Air Filter. The car has done less than 2500 miles since. Dyno sheet included. Gives an average 35 mpg on motorway journeys after remap. (Was about 33 mpg before) New Exedy Clutch and LUK Dual Mass Flywheel fitted at 83258 miles. This included a new clutch hose, spigot bearing and slave cylinder. The result is a very smooth clutch which operates like a new car’s would. ICE Pioneer AVH-X2600BT Double Din Touchscreen headunit. Can be paired with Smart Phone for Sat Nav. Includes Parrot Handsfree Kit. 2 Brodit Phone mounts with magnetic holders for Smartphones. Mods INGs colour coded front spoiler. Tarmacsportz wheel spacers. RTR Day Light Running Lights (DRLs). Zunsport grille. LED rear facelift lights. White LED replacement for sidelights/number plate and interior lights. Stubby aerial replacement for old style OEM model Rear tinted windows The paint has been treated with Gtehcniq C1 and Exo. The car is in fantastic condition both mechanically and cosmetically. There are no noticeable dents or scratches to the bodywork. The interior is very good with very little wear to the seats and no noticeable marks. There is the odd little scratch or mark on the plastic but nothing notable or unusual for the interior of these cars. The engine is very quiet and smooth at tick over. I test drove quite few before I found this one. Some with less and some with more miles but none sounded as healthy with the bonnet popped. It’s an absolute joy to drive and feels very responsive and solid throughout. This is a reluctant sale as I do love the car but the lure of 370z is pulling me in. I’m not going to P/X it for silly money at a garage so I've decided to see if I can get a fair price and only then/if would I upgrade. I want £7250 ono for the car. This is a great example which is in need of nothing to be spent on it. I'm only interested in a P/X for a 370z which I'll be obviously be willing to pay good cash on top for the right car. The car is based in Wolverhampton and kept on drive with a quality Stormforce tailored 350z cover.
  16. I agree, I had the same done to mine (dual mass), feels loads better. I still adjusted my clutch pedal a few times though, I think I got a bit OCD over it. I've got it perfect for me now though, never think about it where as when I first I got the car, I hated the clutch.
