  1. Hi, If anyone is De-badging their Zed, Or has some lying around in their Man Cave, I'm looking for the front wing Badges / Emblems Got an idea brewing, I'm looking for 2 badges Thanks
  2. Ok, thanks guys for the info.
  3. Yes I was comparing it to other cars I've owned, But these are supposed to be one of the top sports cars, I just thought the throttle response would have been better, Also the time from cold start it takes to settle seems long, again I'm comparing it to my previous Merc V6 CLK
  4. As I haven't had my Zed long, I've noticed if I blip the accelerator there is a delay and the rev's take a little to settle down, does this mean the throttle body needs cleaning or is this delay common among Zeds, How can I make it more responsive, Thanks
  5. I'll have them Sent from my T02 using Tapatalk
  6. Before I start scouring the web, Thought I'd drop a post just in case there are some members selling any of these parts. Venom Front Bumper Chargespeed Rear Bumper Dual System Exhaust, Not too concerned about the Manufacturer, just usable condition, not too loud, and of course price. Thanks Maddog.
  7. Well that's what I'd like to build into my Zed, Unfortunately after trawling through pages and pages on the forum and loads of video sound clips on YouTube, I'm no better off identifying the Exhaust System I'd like to install. So I'm at the mercy of the Veterans and Fanatics to point me in the right direction, I'm after: 'Old School, Classic, V6 Muscle, Deep Growling', Exhaust Note. Can anyone advise me on a system that will give this Sound, Thanks
  8. Then I really do doubt it needs replacing at the moment, they are just like that. You can just try the clutch slipping test to see if it is. ---- 2 methods, worth doing both as both show different things. first on is put it in third gear, and fromo a stand still gently pull away, you'll need some revs but not redlining it, if that makes sense. just a little more than normal. if the clutch is good the car should pull away, albeit with a little juddering and shaking. if the clutch is going it will really struggle or stall completely. the other test i'm not as familiar with but others use it on here, if i remember rightly, sit the car in 4th gear and drive at around 30 or 40 mph, then on a straight bit of road with no one around, drop it straight into 6th and floor the accelerator pedal. the revs should drop and the car will slowly creep up the revs and the speed. if the clutch is going the revs will bounce really high then drop. if that makes sense. ---- You can always tell a good Forum when people give great advice !!!! Thanks RobphoboS, You saved me having to replace the clutch, for now anyway. Did both the tests you recommended and the car replied without any problems, I'll just have to adjust my driving style. I'm just back from a round trip to Germany and the car was great, 33.5mpg according to the computer and she didn't miss a beat. Now I can divert my attention to the exhaust system. Thanks again
  9. Only think its needs replacing as the biting point is three quarters to the top and the car has done 58k miles' just comparing to all the other manual cars I've had in my motoring life, but the clutch isn't slipping yet
  10. Thanks Greenlandy I'll be giving them a ring in the Morning
  11. Hi Everyone, As my clutch is pretty much at the top of its travel me thinks it time for replacement, Any recommendations around Farnborough, Hampshire Area, With all the tech these days, Is it basically a drive in drive out. As for the exhaust System, Not too loud but if anyone knows of a system that can equal the tone of my V-Twin RSV 1000, I'm sold Thanks
  12. Hi, Wil this Bluetooth Module connet to a modern Android Bluetooth. Thanks

    Dear Santa - 350Z

    Cookies and a glass of milk, is so old fashioned This year, was a Tube of Pringles and a pint of Kopparberg. But I got my Xmas prezzie 3 days Early 2004 350z GT Manual, With lowish mileage and stock standard. And in budget, Now for some TLC and a few Mods.
  16. just my 2p´s worth, i use an app called Total Car Check, just the free version, it tells you the cars MOT history and amount of road tax, you can upgrade but no need to really .
