No worries, thanks for the reply  hopefully itll be a simple fix, fingers crossed!

Managed to get a hold of a code reader, it come up with P2A03 - Air fuel sensor 1 (Bank 2).

Hopefully it's just a case of a faulty sensor and nothing too serious. Would swapping the front 2 sensors around and seeing if the code reappears but for Bank 1 determine if it's the sensor that's faulty?

I don't have the codes unfortunately, hoping to have a reader tomorrow

so will be able to post them up with a bit of luck!

Yeah the decats got fitted the same time as the remap and I haven't done any mods since, I was thinking/ hoping that maybe what you mentioned would be the problem.

And yes again, I got the light reset on Friday and it has come back on today so I'm guessing it's gonna be a reoccurring thing until I get the codes to work out exactly what is going on

Hey all.

I'm currently running Cobra decats on a 2006 350z. I've had them for around year and a half with no problems at all, but the other day driving home from Bristol to Luton area, my Engine light came on. The light was solid (Not flashing) and I ended up driving around 120 miles with it, the car sounded and performed completely normal the whole drive home.

Managed to get it hooked up to a diagnostics machine and it was coming up (this is where i'm going to be real vague as I didn't get the codes for the fault, sorry  ) something along the lines of a faulty 02/ lambda sensor (rear sensors I believe). The decats were fitted and subsiquently mapped by H-dev so I don't think it would throw up the fault code, although I don't think the Cobra decats come with spacers and I didn't buy any at the time, not sure if this would affect anything? 

It also said something about my fueling being out (one side slightly different to the other?) and running lean, but again I'm fairly clueless with this stuff so I'm not sure what it really means.

So I was just wondering what are my options in regards to having the light off and keeping it off for good? Would it be worth replacing the sensors, buying spacers or getting it in for another map and having the light turned off for this particular fault? Could I try taking the sensors out of my old cats and using them? Not really sure what my options are/ the best thing to do would be.

Sorry I know this is real vague and some of the information may not be helpful but I figured I'd post just incase as pretty much everyone here will likely have a better idea of what might be the issue than I do.

Thanks

Ah really I did not know that :/ hopefully the PDR guys can make it fairly un seeable then, fingers crossed!

Yea it is over the line unfortunately.

Thanks for the replies though guys, swamped with work at the moment so not going to be have time to get it looked at until the other side of new year, but if PDR isn't an option hopefully I can source a new panel from someone on here as a fill and respray wil be waaaaaay too expensive, and I can't not have it perfect I hate seeing any dings or dents!

Hey guys, discovered a dent on the crease of the panel just behind my drivers side door handle, rather gutted considering I purposley park as far away from anyone and everything wherever I go... but none the less someone has managed to do this and drive off which is always lovely.

Sorry for the absolute terrible photo (and filthy car) as I only noticed it tonight at work and wondered if anyone would have any idea if this would come out with a PDR? I'm not going to be able to get to any sort of body shop for a week or so, so I guess I'm kinda hoping I'll get some reassurance before hand but that obviously might not be the case

There isn't any cracked paint from what I can see, just a few small scuffs if that information is of any use. I will try and get a better photo tomorrow but may not be able to upload it until after work which will be midnigh-ish again.

There's one on the a505 between Baldock and Royston, Weston Hills tunnel I think it's called, traffic cams (like cctv) in there but no speed cameras I know of.

Why send it as a PM? I'm sure other would want to know... I can't remember how to do it on mine.

Good point, didn't think of that haha

Make sure the ignition is on, can be done while engine is on also but I prefer to make any changes while the car isn't running.

The top right switch on your steering wheel, (Accel/res - Coast/ set). you hold that down, towards coast/ set. While holding it down, press the cancel button x amount of times to get to the map you want.

So if you want map 5, hold the switch down and press cancel 5 times.

You should be the 'set' light, which his next to the petrol gauge I believe, flash 5 times once you release the switch to indicate that you've selected the correct map. Same would go for 'set' flashing up 3 times for map 3 etc.

Ordered sunday, recieved this morning, great service, good looking badges, deffo recommend!

I've got an Invidia Gemini with burnt ti slash cut tips. Initially wanted the Ark grip because it looked awesome but couldn't justify the (small) extra at the time, ran it for a couple of months, sounds lovely but I felt it was lacking top end (for my liking), Fitted some cobra unresonated test pipes (cost me the difference between the Ark and the Invidia funnily enough...) but oh man, cannot be happier now, fairly quiet when cruising but a real head turner WOT, has a lovely burble to it, really brings out the v6 note.

Sent you a PM

All sorted, HUGE thanks Adrian, you star!

For anyone that wants a laugh, here is my old one...

Ah excellent, may be in contact soon, thanks!

Ah excellent, may be in contact soon, thanks!

Got a make-do one for now from a work van, will check out DC performance on Monday though, thanks for the recommendation.

Just taken mine out and it is absolutely mullered. Anyone have one I could pick up tonight? Based in Bedfordshire. Or is there any traders on here that are close by?

I've been looking at getting some springs, initially was going to go for Teins but I'm slowly convincing myself I want lower...

Few questions regarding lowering on 30mm Eibach springs.

Is it just the springs and rear camber arms that I'll need to buy or is there anything else to go with them?

My Z is currently on 61k miles, will these springs be ok with the standard shocks or is it too much of a drop/ would coilovers be a better financial option if everything had to be replaced?

Also I'm running 20/25mm Eibach spacers, with 225/45/18 front and 245 rear on Rays, does anyone have any experience or knowledge with a 30mm drop and these spacers in regardings to rubbing?

Thanks

Hi all.

Went for a drive tonight in my Z (2006 Coupe, plenum spacer, mRev2, cobra decats and Invidia Gemini, for reference). everything was fine to start with, upon stopping at some traffic lights, my engine cut out, I didn't think too much of it and started her up again fine. Went to go get some fuel (The car has been run on v-power since i've had it and the previous owner had loads of receipts to verify that he'd done the same). When I accelerate, on overrun, the car feels like it's going to cut out, but then doesn't. Sort of if I accelerate upto 3k revs then let off, instead of it being smooth and carrying on rolling down the road, it abruptly pushes me forward like if you're downshifting, but then goes back to normal, My exhaust sounds like it's popping more also (Like when you downshift) but just by letting off the accelerator which has never happened before.

Anyone have any idea what this may be?

Extremely late reply haha but thanks for the comments. Didn't even consider getting it sprayed, what an oversight... And yea, deffo after getting the rear and (rear) side windows dont along with the roof!

Hey guys

I am wondering if anybody can recommend either a reliable member or workshop (preferably around the Bedfordshire area but I am willing to travel) to wrap the Roof of my GM Z to a gloss black finish.

Thanks

I am also running the Invidia Gemini, sounds lovely on it's own, recently fitted Cobra decats and I could not be happier, still relatively quiet when you want it to be but sounds amazing when you get on it, a real head turner!

Thanks guy

Unfortunately no videos, I'm getting test pipes fitted in a few weeks so I will try and get some videos before and then a couple after for comparison!
