  1. oh dear, not good and sorry to hear this. Hopefully your zed will sorted out and you can soon enjoy again.
  2. Good luck with finding the dimensions, can't help with the spec but Euro Car Parts is doing a deal at the moment, Bosch S4 battery is only £82.79 with discount code SUMMER70. Seems a pretty good deal to me if this fits your 370z and you are near ECP.
  3. Can't answer 1 or 2, but 3 ---> Atkin (https://www.atkinmotorengineers.com/) near York or L&G (http://www.lockwoodandgreenwood.co.uk/service/) near Oldham. I've never used Atkin before but they are recommended by many here. I've used L&G to replace my ABS module, they are good and know what they are doing. They'll be happy to drive you to nearest train station and also pick you up when you return (5 mins drive) I'm still unaware of any Nissan specialist in West Yorkshire. As you said, this is not a small job and you want someone who really knows what they are doing.
  4. List has ended.......if you are local and can check them wheels before handing over your hard earn cash!!
  5. I'm not sure on the boot if they are different shape or not but I think they should be the same as it will be expensive for Nissan. I'm sure guys here will appreciate your heads up to avoid complications after purchase. I know i would
  6. i could be wrong but the main pics showed the diffuser on standard 370z rear bumper whilst the pics above is on a Nismo version hence probably why the diffuser needs to be chop to fit?
  7. Holy molly.........looks like that's a major quality issue!! Potentially metal they used are not to specification. Lucky you are testing them on speed bumps not motorway as i suspect heavy breaking will have enough force to bend them!!
  8. Some pics below of my current CCTV system. Only have 2 cameras hooked up at the moment. Also caught a low life b@st@rd trying our car doors hoping to find one that is unlock. He's been trying everyone's car door as few of us caught him on CCTV. He's a regular as he has gloves, hoodie and scarf on. And a bottle of wine on the other hand.
  9. I have a HIKVision 2.4MP camera with 1TB hdd. They are set to record if there is any motion as default hence 1TB will be plenty, the only issue I have is spiders building their web near the camera lens, it moves when it has some wind hence recording almost all night (only visible at night). I have to clean it every other day but I'm planning to buy a spider repellent spray. Their mobile app is pretty simple to set up and use for live view or remote playback. The only downside on the DVR is lack of wireless however I overcome this by using a WiFi range extender that has a network cable. But won't be an issue if your home router is nearby 5MP 4k quality is around £315 but 2.4MP will be just over £200. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Hikvision-5MP-CCTV-KIT-4K-Ultra-HD-DVR-Dome-Camera-Fix-Lens-Home-Security-System-/273203154679 Something to consider for an upgrade will be to replace one camera (main front entrance) with 'starlight' camera. This will be give you full HD coloured video at low light which will allow you to read car number plates and better at human face ID (night IR lighting will 'flash' out the number plate as they are reflective, as you can see in the night image above from Marzman)--> https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Sony-Starvis-WDR-60M-IR-1080p-CCTV-Bullet-Camera-Varifocal-HDTVI-HDCVI-AHD-UK/322487066172?_trkparms=aid%3D222007%26algo%3DSIM.MBE%26ao%3D2%26asc%3D50545%26meid%3Da7c5970143e0429f822934308f7267b0%26pid%3D100005%26rk%3D5%26rkt%3D12%26sd%3D322480248365%26itm%3D322487066172&_trksid=p2047675.c100005.m1851
  10. I see your point there, older tech will struggle as you'll usually have only 1 window of opportunity to shoot wildlife (not with a rifle) Looks like an upgrade is unavoidable I struggled with my camera when i was shooting at my mate's wedding in a church.......it was so annoying that most of my pics were out of focus and grainy (when i pump up the ISO). I was on the edge of getting a newer body (D800 or something newer) but decided against it as i wasn't going to do this as a business.
  11. i personally think mirror-less will work well with landscape, for animals/birds you'll still need a telescopic lens but mirror-less will benefit from a lighter smaller body. Phone will never be able to replace telescopic lens. Found this pretty interesting article --> https://mirrorlesscomparison.com/best/mirrorless-cameras-for-wildlife-and-bird-photography/ I'm still holding on to my Nikon D90 =) old camera that doesn't really perform well in low light but good enough for what I need (portrait and street). When you say not happy with the pics you have taken, what's the issue? poor AF performance?
  12. What sort of photography are you doing at the moment? With smart phone doing so great at the moment, i'm constantly thinking if i should just get a good smart phone (Huawei P20, Samsung S9, Sony, IPhone, etc) and sell all my DSLR kit. Compact mirror-less is good for portrait and street photography imho.

    New Mats

    The look good but need to make sure they don't move about whilst your are driving as they will cause the accelerator pedal to get stuck.
  14. More like an excuse to avoid embarrassment of putting £5 fuel in but still wanted to go viral with her complaint.
  15. Some info here --> https://my350z.com/forum/engine-drivetrain-and-forced-induction-diy/524603-o2-sensor-simulators-complete-guide.html
  16. When you said no sensor, did previous owner removed the O2 sensor completely? If so, i would check the connector for the 02 sensor. I might be wrong but suspect the previous owner replaced the sensor with a dummy connector with a resistor across it to cheat the system thinking there is a sensor, the resistor is now faulty hence your zed is giving you an engine code now.
  17. Should be fairly easy if you hare hand with tools. I think the most difficult bit will be replacing the lock as you'll need to remove door card etc etc. Info here --> https://my350z.com/forum/exterior-and-interior/533465-how-do-you-remove-the-door-panel.html (ignore the window motor section). Good luck with the door hunt, as Stu mentioned above, you'll need to find matching door else it will look like a sore thumb.

    Spare Keys

    You can get a 2nd hand key from a breaker (Zmanalex a trader here might have some)- £25-£40 each depending but make sure they are from an import model, new blade for £5 (Ebay) which takes 2 minutes to replace on the 2nd hand key. Then spend £80 on programming and £20 to cut. You can get any locksmiths to cut it (some chargers £10). So saving you some ££££. I had mine done in Malaysia when I went back home for holiday. Purchased a 2nd key from a trader here for £25 (He's not trading at the moment), replace the blade myself (£5 from Ebay), key cut and programmed by a auto locksmiths in Malaysia for £30. So all in for £60
  19. Hello and welcome Background looks familiar......
  20. Hello and welcome post your issues here and i'm sure many of us will be able to help. If you need parts, Zmanalex will 99.9% sort you out.
  21. 400miles won't be cheap if you hire a transport company, might as well spend the money on a road trip as above. Plan a few stops in between or maybe overnight.
