Like i think that sounds great (I know videos don't do exhausts justice)

I know a muffler isn't a decat ffs

I demufflered my old B6 S4 and it sounded great but system on it had no resonator only Y pipe so it sounded like a herd of wild bastards on the beans.

All I'm asking is has anyone removed the rear muffler(backbox) etc and kept resonator and cats obviously

Am i being a cheap bastard, why yes i am...

Has anyone else gone this route ? Im guessing exhaust is resonated

The tips, where are you buying them from mate ? Im demufflering my HR zed and wan't something abit more aggressive looking than stock

Not heard of any issues tbh over here, afew japanese imports have trouble on 95 octane like Subaru Legacy B4's etc, the older models

Oh well not much i can do besides spending a fortune on octane booster

Standard unleaded is fine in HR models ?

Thanks for all your help guys.

Ended up buying this today a 2007 HR engined GT pack in black with only 34000 miles, im over the moon

Opted to go look at the HR saturday, wish me luck

Will post pics if i buy it

Either would be a keeper, my main bugbear is the milage and the not having the HR motor, 3k is nice but afew years down the line a car with 55000 miles less would be alot easier to sell.

Basically im looking at two options.

2006 Nismo with 90000 miles for 7000 euros https://www.donedeal...dition/13063561

2007 350z with 34000 miles for 10000 euros (No link for this one, it's a black HR engined example)

Hi Guys

Thinking of going to look at a 2006 Nismo tomorrow and i have afew questions you might be able to answer

What does the Nismo get that the standard model doesn't besides the bodykit and rays wheels ?

Will a 2006 Nismo have the DE or HR engine ? Im under the impression the HR didn't come out until 2007

What kinda milage are 350z good for if well miantained ?

Thanks a bunch lads

Yea i think a last edition 2007 version GT 350z would be my preference but might have to wait afew months if i wanted to stretch to one.

I just want a big lazy cruiser

Welcome aboard Jim. Can't believe the cost of tax though!

Yea its 1294 on my ST.

1300 quid to tax a bloody focus hence thinking of upgrading to something to make the loony tax worth it

Jim Here from Galway just nosing about.

Noticed this section is fairly quiet, just thought i would say hi

How are you guys finding your Z's for

Insurance

Tax (ugh)

MPG

Coping with Irish roads (GT version would hold up better i guess)

Anyway nice to meet you all, if ye have a meet this year or next year i will come along for a nose about and to ask some noob questions.

Hi all,

Basically im here to learn as much as i can about the 350z (2007 model) as im thinking of selling my Focus ST (also 2007) and buying one instead of spending 2-3 grand getting my ST to stage 3 300bhp or so while possibly reducing its resale value.

Im after a purer drivering experience and a better grand tourer that i will use day to day and if anyone on here has made the swap from ST to 350z your imput would be greatly appreciated. Tax here is lunacy on 3 litre+ engines 1900e a year or so but it makes for some great deals like http://cars.donedeal.ie/cars-for-sale/nissan-350z/5868530 so im thinking of biting the bullet.

Nice to meet you all.

Jim
