Starter button - SOLD!

Keyring - SOLD!

I bought mine pre-reg 2017 last September, with 10 miles on the clock in Black for £31k....I’ve just sold it (well part-exed) 

Yes, everything needs to go!!!!

Hi, just clearing out a few bits

I have some HKS Performance Air Filters, these were for my 350z HR, they were on the car approx 12 months before I took them out when I sold this car. They have just sat on a shelf since then. Selling for £35. including postage.

Hi, the Nismo has gone so I have a few items to sell

1. AAM Compettion Resonated Shortails, specific for the 307z Nismo, 5" tips, burnt titanium look. These were purchased from Torqen end of February & were fitted a couple of weeks later, then removed when I sold my car, so they were on the car for a few weeks. They are like new. They cost £809.00, selling for £520.00 including postage -SOLD!

2. Red GR starter button for 370z or 370z Nismo, selling for £30.00 which includes postage - SOLD!

3. Eibach 25mm spacers, 2 x pairs (4 in total) These are about 18 months old & were purchased from Tarmac Sportz. These were perfect on my 370z. I also had them on my Nismo. Selling for £60.00 the lot including postage - SOLD!

4. 370z boot carpet mat with stitched 370z logo, purchased from Clarke Motorsport, this is in very good condition, purchased new & used in the boot of my 370z for approx 12 months. Selling for £35.00 including postage - SOLD!

5. 'Z' keyring, selling for £7.00 including postage - SOLD!

Any questions, send me a message. I am away from 7th to 14th April, so I will not be able to post out any items week commencing 16th April.

Sorry to hear that mate.

I had my motorbike stolen in August (my pride & joy) a lovely MY17 Yamaha MT07 with just over 200 miles on it!

These w*****s need stringing up!!

Anyway, on a positive note, once the insurance was sorted out, went out the weekend after and swapped my 370z for a 370z Nismo.

I hope the insurers play fair and give you an acceptable offer and you can go out and get another Nismo (or whatever else tickles your fancy)

Yes I had the same with my Nismo.

I told them twice to ensure that they checked/removed these before I collected.

On collection they insisted it had been done, but it hadn’t!

This was a main dealer....it’s crazy (it took me 2 mins to check and i’m no mechanic)

Hi Martin, did you ever go for the ecutek?

Pete

Checked yesterday and, yep, the shipping spacers are there!!!

Had my local mechanic remove these these today and, as he had my car, he also fitted my 25mm spacers and red starter button.

The car looks great with the spacers, and the red starter button has dramatically increased the BHP.....Not sure of the handling yet but looking forward to testing it out soon.

Haven't spoken to the garage yet, that supplied the car, but will do tomorrow. Interested to say what they say considering I asked them twice to make sure they were removed as part of the PDI!

Ok, so I have just purchased a 370z Nismo (coming from a 350z HR and a 370z GT)

A few questions I would love your expert advise on....

1. Can I fit my 25mm Eibach spacers, taken from my 370 onto this, will it affect the handling? Will it void my warranty?

2. Can I fit a new exhaust without affecting the warranty? If so which one? (it's so quiet!!!!)

That's it really, car seems nice, only done 40 miles so far as picked up this afternoon (bit bouncy but I guess that's the tuned suspension but will check the travel spacer things, just in case)

Looking forward to replies and to hearing from other Nismo owners.

I am sure (as with my 350 and 370) I will have further questions.....

I've just collected mine, no mats...they are extra.

I have my old ones from the 370, so they will do I guess...but I would love Nismo ones!

I agree with Rabbitstew, you need to take one for a spin!

I moved from a 350HR to a 370, so I haven't really noticed any difference in performance.

The difference I do like is the interior, its just a nicer place to be

If you have any left, I am interested too....thanks

take a footpump and a decent tyre pressure gauge - your pressures will rise considerably as your tyres heat up - I expect 35psi cold will turn into 43psi when hot, so you'll likely need to come into the pits after a session and drop the pressures back down to 35psi hot.

 

also always do a cooldown lap (or maybe two since Mallory is a very short track) at the end of every session you do, trying to use the brakes as little as possible. and then when you park up in the pits, don't use the handbrake as it will stick to the hot disc! Id also keep your sessions short - i'd do maybe 8 laps before coming in.

 

oh and do whatever you can to make sure you stay until the end. a lot of cars start going home at 3pm, so the track starts getting quieter towards the end of the day, which is when you'll put your best laps in! in a similar way the start of the day and just after lunch are the busiest times, so if you're not confident being on track with other cars, perhaps wait 20 minutes and try and spot who the troublemakers might be.

'Trouble Makers' how do I spot these

though looking at the attendance list so far looks like you'll have the whole track to yourself anyways... Pete

That would be nice but unfortunately this track day has only just been released so I am sure that it will soon fill up.....unless they are all scared of going up against the mighty 370

All great advise, many thanks.

I intend to have Mitz do a full service over the next few weeks (car needs it anyway)

There is an option to have some instructor training, think it's £20.00, I go opt for this extra...

Didn't realise about the tyre pressures increasing, I need to sort foot pump & tyre pressure gauge.

As per title, after 2 years 350z and 370z ownership I have finally booked my first track day, 2nd September at Mallory park.

Really looking forward to it but....any advise chaps!!

I had an RS turbo given to me as a company car when I was 24!!

What a great car, seemed super quick at the time, ok so I built up 9 penalty points for speeding in 2 months, but I had such great fun with it....

Was a shame, the company I worked for went into liquidation and I had to get a new job, with a new company car....an Austin Montego 1.6l (well it was the recession after all) What an absolute pile of s**t

Oh well you take the rough with the smooth I guess....

So I've just arrived in San Francisco for business but I'm with my missus so I have arranged a couple of days sightseeing also.

I'm going to be travelling round a bit, Monteray Bay, San Jose, etc, so decided to hire a car from SF airport. Pre-booked with Virgin, didn't want to risk the Mustang or similar route as I have heard the horror stories of sh1t Chrysler alternatives....so I booked a Rav 4!!

Got to the desk this afternoon, asked about upgrades, was offered a Mustang or quality SUV in place of the RAV4, but for $70 a day extra (I have booked the car for a week)

Eventually got the guy down to $20 a day extra for a Dodge Challenger, yes basic spec, yes v6 not v8 but I think I'm happy with it....I've only tackled the roads from the airport to my hotel in SF!!

But tomorrow, we take the coast road down to Monteray Bay, should be fun....

I will try to take some photos and post them up....
