  1. To save you a long journey 'I would get the registration number and then phone nissan. They will identify engine code from reg which will reveal if its HR or not .. If it is a 313GT hr then great. Youll love it. Its what i have. Good luck
  2. I love old vans and especially one like yours. Classic vans are great as when they were made they were obviously built as work horses and to see one that has survived the test of time is brilliant. Older vans also have so much character about them. Lovely PS. The Z looks great too ( forgot i was on Z forum for a sec ) !!!! Ooops
  3. Am i wrong in thinking that if the wheel is spaced out more .. the end result is more road dirt is flicked up the side of the car. If so then i wouldnt this time of year
  4. Awful feeling when your other half is hurt and in pain and you personally cant help. But you being there is the best thing she could ask for. Hope she makes a speedy recovery
  5. They look great. Ive some rays that are a bit scuffed and tiny dent on the lip. Will take them along and see if they can sort
  6. MIGWEL

    NEW RIMS

    They look really cool. Totaly transforms the car .
  7. If the belt is loose or alternator are at fault .. You can tell by having engine running at tick over and put all lights heater etc on. The squeal should get a bit louder
  8. I agree with ekona. Clear silicone mastic. Sticks well flexible and removable
  9. I saw a silver roadster 350Z saturday in horley then about an hour later i saw a silver roadster 350Z in redhill. They even had the same number plates !!!! í ½í¸‚
  10. Personally i wouldnt use kurust. Its the film it leaves that goes black. Not the rust. It creates a protective airtight seal thats all. Waxoyl underbody seal is good as it doesnt dry out and peel. . And as stated before hammerite is useless. It chips off and flakes and doesnt stop rust at all. Also the runny waxoyl is the clear one that is usually injected into cavities but to do this you usually need to heat it to make it thin enough. The proper waxoyl underbody seal doesnt run badly at all
  11. Hi and welcome. Where abouts in east sussex are you. Im on the border near gatwick. Ive a black HR model. Very pleased with it and black looks great. From what ive read on here the HR has better interior than previous though i havent seen the interior of earlier models myself. HR has led lights and cubby hole is replaced by satnav. Twin air intakes and so on ,, good luck with your search
  12. My name is mike .. For many years all my friends and customers have always called me miguel or migs or migaeli Im as british as they come but somehow even being a 50 year old git i have dark hair and people think im italian or spanish .. in summer i work outside a lot and do get a bit of a nice tan. Therefore my Z has the registration number MI6 WEL and my van is MI6 SXX
  13. Black gt pack is a brilliant choice. They look stunning
  14. I have just been into crawley town centre and witnessed a homeless woman with her dog being removed by the police. This took a police van for the dog and 5 police cars all of which were estates . At first i thought something big was happening like the scene from heat ( robert deniro & al pacino ) where the bank raid happens. But none the less a woman and her dog ,,,,,..?..
  15. Saw you on a23 approaching gatwick flyover at 11:45 am saturday. Car looked great
  16. Its awful the way they have treated you. I can understand you still being very fond of the car and still wanting to keep it though as i have experienced similar myself a while back. The way they have treated you though is so rude that if it was me i wouldnt really want them to do any repairs as they probably wouldnt be bothered to do it that well .. Maybe im an easy soft touch but i would be happier to pay and know a decent person has sorted the repairs to a high standard. The garage you bought from will lose out in the long run as you wont buy anything else and people you know name and shame them. I would go to the extreme of going to there sales forecourt and tell potential customers how you have been treated by them
  17. Hi mate. It could be a loose alternator belt. If it was a squealing sound then that would be this. Not sure if you have moved yet but im happy to pop over and have a look
  18. Reminds me of when i had a tree run into the back of my van !!! Welcome along
  19. I like the arrangement of your first picture mike. My Z is also black. I want to get my wheels done and that would be my choice.
  20. If its the outer tie rod ends then thats not so bad. Theyre normally a quick fix but get tracking checked afterwards. I know some people count the amount of turns taking off and repeat number of turns putting new one on but past experience i would have tracking checked
  21. I remember when the mk3 capris came out. I nearly bought a new one from the ford dealer. Its surprising how dated they look now but still a cool car and will always be one of my faves. Welcome along bud
  22. Thats a real pain. Bugger !!! Sorry to hear this. Its so annoying. Ive broken both wrists years ago thankfully not together and know what its like to be out of action and you cant play with your new toy
  23. Hi. Would these need spacers or anything else to suit a 2008 HR with brembo calipers. I dont know a great deal about wheels. And finally would they be able to be sent as im in surrey. Thanks in advance. Mike
  24. I knew nothing about the 350z's when i bought mine. All i knew was i liked the style and that they are quite rare to be seen. So when i spotted a black one for sale on the internet i knew i had to see it and ended up buying it. 8500 miles only , sat nav , and yes HR i didnt realise what it was at the time but with many thanks to this forum i have learnt a lot about them now
