Haha! Cheers guys and I haven't got a top mounted inter cooler however I do like the look of them 😂
Unfortunately I have a black car and to be honest I think carbon bonnet maybe a risk because I don't think it will suit it 🙈😱

Yeah I know true that but in all fairness if I could prevent water from getting to the engine Id probably do it but then it's defeating the object...hummm! Stuff it im going to go with a spoiler and new front bumper 😂 problem solved

but definitely not ruining mine" à½Ã¸‚
You will if you stick half a kellogs corn flake box on the bonnet.
Haha! 😂 well what about vents in the bonnet? What do you think to that?
To be honest with you guys the main thing putting me off the idea is all that water getting into the engine bay would devastate me 😂 but on a performance note it's a good way to keep your engine cool 😊ðŸ‘

I get where your coming from I had a nob chav in an evo behind me the other week pulling far back then giving it some right up my arse I was just like "really mate honestly just f* off and if you want to ruin your car then that's fine with me but definitely not ruining mine" 😂

Fair enough haha! I knew a lot of people might not like the idea because ive hardly seen anyone in the UK with cut outs or edges on the bonnet 😂
Just a question to see if there's anyone out there 😊
I like Evo's you see and all the edges just make it look boss! In my opinion anyway ðŸ‘

Just asking if anyone on the forum has had a bonnet scoop fitted to their original bonnets rather than changing the bonnet completely?
Might be just me who thinks the Zed's looks ace with all the sharp edges to the body 😂 I just like the more aggressive look 😂

Love the sounds of the supercharger sounds too notch! This will be me one day ������ hopefully ������ anyone got a spare 6grand they could kindly give me ������������
Sounds lovely done a cracking job mate ������������
Cheers Beefy.
I don't earn a lot but I sold loads of household junk that I just didn't need as well as saved money I earned from working to afford this so it is attainable if you really want it bad enough.
Gm on engine braking dose your bov sound like it's constantly letting presure of or dose it just dump and be done with
I can't say I've noticed or listened out for that. I imagine it would be constantly letting out some slight pressure but unsure tbh.
Yeah definitely my friend ðŸ‘👌 Ive got tons of Mods to do yet to the look of the car but the Supercharger is definitely in my mind for future reference 😊 Zeditus is at a low at the moment because got my first baby on the way and shopping for a house so money has to go towards the house im afraid 😬 so hard not to buy things now 🙈 😂

Black 2005 (55) UK 3 owners full service history except 2013
in Zeds For Sale
Posted · Edited by BeefyZ
I am very disappointed in saying that I am thinking of selling this car, it is a gorgeous motor but with having a child on the way I need to be looking at a four seater like a Skyline ðŸ˜. I will only sell it for the right price as Im not in any rush to sell it. I am looking for £7,800 or Nearest Offer.
I have discussed with a few people and they think it's definitely worth that even if it has got a few cosmetic problems.
About the car...it's only ever had 3 owners I'm the third of course, low mileage at 52-53k it's been serviced every year except 2013 which is obviously when the last owner decided he weren't keeping it so no point.
I have changed rear tyres last year front tyres this year and placed a new battery. I have also replaced spark plugs. The time I have had the car since February 2014 it's been spoilt and the additions made makes it a stunner. It has never failed me only on the old battery. I have had all the MoT and Services through Nissan. It's been excellent.
The down side it does need new brake pads soon 20-30% on them. It will also need Air con and alternator belt replaced I have them which will come with the car. Last thing is MoT runs out soon. I can come to an agreement that if the MoT fails I don't mind putting either money towards it or what I will personally agree that with you. I am confident the MoT will be a pass! ðŸ‘😊
I will name the bad points first because it's only a short list:-
This may sound silly but I went down the country lanes as we got lost on a road trip and the road was too narrow for my car and one side of the car fell off. This luckily didn't cause too much damage except for the front under side of the bumper. This is not a clear scratch/scuff until you bend right over and see it. Although even if this didn't happen Id say the front bumper (Lower half of front bumper) has got quite a bit of stone chips and markings probably due to its age to be honest, so the mark I caused hasn't really caused an issue.
Also still speaking about the front bumper there is a scratch mark on the splitter part which was present when I bought the car however they did not tell me and I did not see it until a few weeks later. Again in my opinion a front bumper respray.
It has two deep scratches I believe and that's on the side of the car when I bought it, it was present and another on the bonnet. It has a few scratches but again it's a 10year old car but nothing what can't be waxed out, bearing in mind the two what I am on about can't be.
It has also got slightly worn leather on the drivers side which usually tends to be on these cars 😠with that a worn OEM gear stick but I have a nice aftermarket hear knob which will come with the car.
It also has scuffs on the Z strut bar in the boot which was present when I bought the car. Also scuffs on the drivers side indoor handle few marks on that nothing what can't be put right. Again I would have had all the interior plastics re-painted in shiny gloss black but haven't got round to it 😓
Back on the exterior again previous owner guessing the clumsy women who was the first owner didn't care about the car and 45k was peanuts to her but she must have worn heals and scuffed the door sill/top of the side skirt.
Last of all wear and tear on the alloys now the front have a couple of scuff marks which isn't caused by me. I don't know how/why someone would do that it's mental. I never got round to refurbishing them because I was going to buy Rota's.
Oh last last thing the rear water pump is knackered and Nissan want 150quid just for the pump not the labour just for a squirt of water on the rear window...as you can guess I told them to get f***ed 😂 I have lived without a rear washer and it hasn't been a single problem ðŸ‘😊.
I will post all pictures of Bad points but also post good points 😊
The good points are that I have had DRL's to the car which make it look modern and really does suit the car! Another problem I missed out is one of these DRL's gathers condensation now wether that was my electricians I used because I didn't buy there DRL's I don't know but it gather condensation on the inside. Still works perfectly fine but the plastic isn't crystal clear 😖
I have had my dials and near enough all electrical switches sent all the way to Texas America to have my LEDs changed and the actual gauge face customised. This is a crucial bit of show off equipment because the RPM dial changes colour wherever you set your Rev limiter. Now I know people have had there dials changed but I honestly do not know another person on this forum who has got this. Yes that's right 1-0 up on all those standard looking Zed's.
I have placed Eyelids on the car to give it that meaner look now I had these fitted by Nissan and tbh they didn't do the best job however I'm not a picky person. They fit well just not perfect In some people's eyes.
I had the windows tinted when I got the car. 40% driver and passenger side. All the other windows is 20% which is a nice look to be honest! 😊
I have had two exhaust systems fitted the first one because I didn't want one too loud and then I got depressed when people told me this is what it should have sounded like when it come out of the factory. I know it's a compliment but that's no good. So I went back to the same place and it's not too loud when you like loud music of course but you do get a drone if your in 6th gear going down the motorway at 55-60mph.
Another point scoring against other cars Mopedmark on this forum listened to my car when I met him and he is a regional event organiser on here and been to many meets and he said and I quote "this is the best sounding 350z I have heard, it's so nice"
That really made me smile because it's like hell yeah so another point.
I have also had an Engine bay dress up and the car looks the bomb. I have taken people to proms in the car over this summer and I can be very truthful with this because I didn't think I'd get that much people get interest but my god when I showed up. I got a fair few people but when I opened that bonnet up people was saying to me can I take a photo and I said yeah sure thing. It's incredible again an amazing feeling. Another point as to why you should have this car ðŸ‘😊 I will say because I let the kids Rev the car, my apologises to Mark on this one as again Mopedmark on this forum did the engine bay for me bubbled up the engine cover ðŸ˜ðŸ˜– nothing what will cost much to get repainted by Mark just get in touch with him.
I also got an induction kit put on and a 350z engraved engine bar courtesy of Mark again.
I have also replaced Rear license plates bulb with white LED which is again a nice modern touch. I have also replaced rear tail lights and they were from Australia and they are in a shape of a Z's real smart and as my friend told me makes the car stand out a lot more.
I have done little mods such as Z badges and wheel spacers 😊
Cost of Mods
DRL's - 60
Dials - 780
Stainless steel Exhaust system 1 - 400
Stainless steel Exhaust system 2 (current) - 320
Chrome Z badges - 20
Window tints - 120
Tailights - 320
Engine bay dress up - will disclose on the day if need be. As it was personal with Mark (great guy by the way)
Induction kit - 50
Wheel spacers 120
Eyelids - 80
I have all the standard Taillights with bulbs, standard badges to go with the car aswell as the New Air con and Alternator belt.
I paid 9000k last year in February and the milage stood at 39,500 odd. So I think the amount I have already lost without the Mods and with the Mods I think £7,800 Or there about is the right price for the car.
Please drop me a private message on here if you are interested or want any information on the vehicle.
Thanks for reading
