  1. Hello and To the forum. have a look in the for sale section, at least you know your buying a well looked after Zed from members on here. http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/51-zeds-for-sale/
  2. looks really good buddy, Silver is very difficult to show the paint quality but omg that is gleaming, nice mods too.
  3. Welcome along to the forum, i'm just down the road from you in farnborough incase your interested. http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/111271-2004-350z-gt-spec-one-and-a-half-week-sale/
  4. This is a good installation guide i used, thanks to Hodaka http://www.350z-uk.c...tle +controller The connector block i'm referring to is in step 3 (photo), he has used sellotape to hold them together where a cable tie can be used. Hope this helps
  5. Hi, My little bits worth, I have the same controller, when i initially installed the D1 all i got was the same as you reported a few flickers, after a bit of web searching i found out the connector block between the controller and your accelerator can be pushed together 180 deg out, As soon as i pushed them together and cable tied, all works correctly, Wondered why there was a large cable tie in the box A bit peculiar, what i thought was the logical way to connect the blocks together, Wasn't, i had to turn one block 180 deg, push together, then Cable Tie. Now All Good, Works well
  6. As much as i am enjoying my 350Z i need a little bit more luggage space for traveling While i'm back for Christmas there might be someone looking for a nice 350z while i'm on the lookout for a Skyline 350GT. Here she is: I bought the Car in Jan 2016 Two previous owners.With Good History 2004 350Z GT - Spec - Manual - Silver (KYO G) 64000 Miles, Most of the mileage i've done has been motorway to and from Germany running 100+ octane Discs and pads all round Diff Oil Gearbox Oil Engine oil and Filters Aux Belts Bosch Spark Plugs Stubby Ariel Horsham Developments Grounding Kit D1 Spec Throttle Control Rear Parking Sensors Pioneer satnav media system Replaced OEM Satnav Screen Cubby Hole Nvidia Dual Stainless exhaust system, Purchased from another member on the forum De-cats supplied as i haven't changed the mapping to the up-rev. Rear Boot Spoiler Other than these few changes the car is stock standard. Battle Scars to the Bumpers. I received a very kind parking scar to the rear left lower quarter panel which i had an emergency repair done to seal out the winter conditions, needs a final paint matching, otherwise there's no rust that i've seen around the bodywork Rear tyres needed replacing so i put a couple of new winter tyres on the rear (budget) As i've been working in Europe. Some more photos to follow. With new MOT £5900.00 ONO Located Farnborough, GU14 Area
  7. After all the advice i reinstalled the OEM cats, until i get all the induction and mapping done, by the way there is a spade connector very close to the passenger Cat, don't bump this off as i did, your Zed won't start. (nothing, no click, no tick, nothing) lol
  8. Thanks gents for all the emails, Air vents now sorted One tick off the list for project front bumper

  10. I'm looking for a pair of these vents if anyone has some lying around, i would like them to be in fiberglass, not necessarily in Carbon and if they are damaged that's ok.

  13. Think i'll be putting the Cats back on again, but it's so smooth with the de-cats, I really didn't want to spend a fortune on the car as this is my first Zed, and I'm contemplating selling and buying an automatic. I agree with what Irn Bru is saying and i think i'll hold off the up-rev until i get the Zed i'm completely happy with and then customize accordingly. Thanks for the input guys

  15. 2004 DE Standard apart from, Invidia True Dual System, With Silenced DE-Cats, The engine light came on so i got some Lambda Spacers, it's seems to be ok pottering around until i start driving her the way she should be driven. Then the light comes on again until the dance be done, Not going into limp mode just the light is on. (i presume the second Lambda sensor) Do i need a re-map or maybe an induction kit The engine is standard and didn't really want to go down the up-rev route Any tips or tricks to avoid the engine light coming on
  16. Welcome aboard, nice looking Zed you got there
