  1. Sorry any idea what brand / type of wheel these could be ?
  2. More pics sorry car was dirty ðŸ™
  3. Would just like to say a big thanks to Cougar Store great service and communication. Finally took plunge and bought the Buddy Club Exhaust and wow what a difference in sound and throttle response the V6 definitely breaths better Fitting was an absolute dream no issues whatsoever and aligned perfect on both bumper cut outs
  4. DBA T2 and Hawk Ceramics supplied by Clark Motorsport and fitted by me absolutely love the set up and no brake squeal , great all round and noticed a big difference to my old standard oem kit Each to their own though and obviously budget restrictions
  5. Recently ordered a Buddyclub Pro Spec exhaust from Cougar store, really happy with the price, product and delivery. Communication Was spot on from order stage right through until product landed was faultless highly recommend them and will definitely use again
  6. As Ekona said consumables I bought mine with 73k plugs mentioned changed at 39k in service receipts so decided as just bought I treat my new car and changed as not expensive to be honest and besides performance cars love a new plug 😀 Car felt great after Oil changed every 6 to 8k with Titan Race Pro But that's just me everyone else has different budgets and views 😜
  7. Was in same situation thought I buy the 04 version as cheaper tax wise but only had 73k full service history Had about 16mths now used everyday 10k later no serious issues just wear and tear Like some people have said mileage is not always the issue, if it's been loved and service history is spot on then 8/10 times car will be fine 83k over 11 years is way below average so couldn't resist Plus my budget was up to 15k thought I see if I like the 350z which I do , gonna keep bit longer then upgrade to 370 I think Good luck with whatever you choose
  8. Could be worse was going down A12 in Essex at 60 and two ducks decide to land in my path couldn't steer clear as landed to close and had another car to my side so closed my eyes and thought @*!# those poor ducks heard a thud drove to nearest garage and @*!# I had duck beak indents and spider web paint work Then some joker pulled up behind me and said did you hit two ducks I said yeah his reply no @*!# this is for real - well I got them in my boot if you wanna take them home for dinner then we just both laughed and he said only joking and drove off 😀 Seriously though bit gutted but all my little front bumper scuffs and little stone chips I class them as my battle wounds as my car is a beast and is well hard !!! Yes I'm Essex bred sorry 😀
  9. My DE Zenons are useless and yes my headlights are clean 😀 Might as well have candles on front !! Or I'm getting old and eyesight going nah it's the headlights
  10. Hi wizza2000 did you jack the car up at the weekend and if so any luck? Gpt my car back from nissan today. The only thing they suggested is that the flywheel could be warped and would be in excess of £2k to replace using nissan parts. When they did the clutch though they could not see anything obviously wrong with the flywheel. sorry for late reply, yes jacked my car up lubricated the slave cylinder rod to the clutch fork and also lubricated the pivot ball behind rubber grommet but like pi##ing in the wind though lol it never work still have the creaking pedal so took it down to my mate to listen to and he said master cylinder push rod is making that noise and everything I sprayed on pedal missed what I needed to hit He said I need to drop ecu couple of bolts above pedals so out of way and get a better look and lubricate pedal, he also mentioned due to years of footwell heater blower on it looks like dried out the rubber/plastic bushes on clutch pedal and when I think it's creaking outside he said you would because master cylinder is bolted to firewall and noise is resonating into engine bay hence why I can hear outside but he definitely said try lubricating the pedal higher up where this rod and bushes on pedal are, but drop ecu worth trying that first otherwise he said bring it back and he will remove master cylinder and clutch pedal and re-lubricate on a bench then put back in He said that's last resort though and to trial and error that diy way a few times first to save money He is a good honest mechanic and used to be general service manager for Honda before he got hacked off for working for dealers so set up his own business 6 years on still only one that touches my cars Let you know how I get in with pedal lubing lol gonna have a go Sunday
  11. I second that great car for the price, and looks so more expensive than we all probably paid 😀
  12. exactly the same as me then glad not the only one 😜
  13. Same here I searched the forum sounds like a dry pivot ball joint inside the bell housing where the clutch fork meets/mounts it, Gonna jack up car at weekend and try pull back the rubber access panel where fork goes through and try lightly lubricating that pivot ball and hopefully that cures it 😀 Let you know how I get on , gotta love the forum sounds like a known issue that some owners have had and the above seems to resolve so gotta try what others have done - fingers crossed
  14. Hello Bit of advise I had new clutch and dmf fitted about 8000 miles ago so know the issue not that But now experience a creeking clutch noise when getting biting point in 1st or 2nd only when pedal is slowly lifted fast gear change no noise I've lubricated pedal and the rubber where clutch fork enters transmission but noise still there Do you reckon the fork or pivot ball needs a spray or could it be the slave or master cylinder ? Gear changes are perfect so know not major just annoying little noise I think my ocd is setting in lol Note this creaking noise only happens when car has been driven after about 10 miles so happens when components are warm Any advise would be appreciated
  15. Many thanks Ewen The DBA T2 Discs front and back along with Hawk Ceramic pads all around arrived safely. Many thanks for the great service All I need to do is get all fitted along with the Hosetechnik Braided Hoses you also supplied that were sitting in cupboard waiting for the discs and pads no excuses now Thanks once again guys Darren
  16. Hello I have a 2004 with HID will these you just fitted to yours fit mine ? In other words plug and play or do I have to adapt wiring harness like splicing etc ? Darren
  17. do you have the pro spec on shelf ? One available... cool shall I just order via website ?
  18. Im installing on standard cats for moment and as for those bungs I remember them on my ep3 used to rattle but like you said if need to use now and again won't hurt 😀
  19. Now that's what I like and you have just made my mind up had that exhaust on my Type R and was worried about using the buddy club on my 350z. But after seeing your video that's the sound I was after Cheers for the video lol
  20. Sorry people for the late response I only picked that model because I had one fitted to my EP3 and liked the sound, I'm into touring cars and only got that because team halfords used them on their Type R so went same route but now I have a much better car my 350z I was wondering about going down same avenue and using the brand I knew and enjoyed but was worried about drone. Hard picking exhausts I either bite the bullet and purchase then remove due to ear bleeding lol I'm one for always having radio off and listening to my exhaust note but don't want to keep breaking speed limits to hear a beautiful sound coming from the 350z I rather have it low down then a banshee at higher speeds To be honest everyone has their own preference I rather hear my exhaust note than the girlfriends Lionel Richie blurting out the CD player plus drone the missus out from moaning about my driving habit -happy days I think I've answered my own question I know the brand and noise Gonna take the plunge and try on the 350 Thanks guys though for the responses greatly appreciated onto cougar store asap and it maybe on resale in a few months 😜
  21. Your welcome mate enjoy I'm just getting used to mine , that setting is a good starter but what's good we can adjust to suit our own driving habits at later date
  22. Hello Had front soft setting and rear middle setting To test at first, car handles much better and pleased with setting, but no doubt change setting when get bored lol It's a good purchase really pleased with the eibach arbs Enjoy I'm sure you will
  23. Think I went for a stiffer rear, but then I like my cars oversteery and I had a hell of a lot of other bracing on as well which affected just how much the ARBs changed the drive. I'd certainly start with your settings, you can always change them easily enough to suit your own style Sounds like good advise, i will try that set-up first Wizza what did you go for in the end. Having mine done tomorrow. Sent from my Galaxy Note 4 with Tapatalk
