Well it's finally time to get rid, full transparency I just want it gone which is why the price is so low. I've owned this car for 6 years although 5 of that she has been SORNd and garaged due to life circumstances. I do take her out the garage and jump it fine every now and then to make sure it's all okay though. Always thought I'd get her back on the road but alas haven't got the time or money. She's a 56 plate and had done 48k miles as of the last MOT in 2017 but as it went SORN soon after I think the mileage is no more than 50k. Last MOT was a pass. Mods include full set of refurbed alloys (old set can be taken as well if required), wheel spacers, blue wheel nuts, Japspeed K4 exhaust (loud) with bumper tuck, popcharger, stubby aerial, LED bulbs all round inside and out, D1 throttle controller, OBDII bluetooth sender unit, core strut brace painted to match the car, slam panel, front switchback DRLs (these no longer work but still look good, maybe just needs a new sender unit), latest/last version of the sat nav DVD, new gear gaiter and knob. Had a new Mishimoto rad installed shortly before being garaged too. Most of the mods I outlined in my build thread here: Bad points: The front wings have some scratches on that I haven't tried to polish out, think it's just in the clearcoat, and the canvas hood has a couple of small holes that have been glued/patched. Doesn't leak as far as I'm aware but I hardly drove it in the wet. Asking 4k ovno with the proviso it will need to be trailered away as I simply want rid of it. As I said it will start up when jumped but doesn't hold a charge so can be driven onto a trailer if needed.

Hi John I'm looking to get rid of my revup roadster in blue, 56 plate, last MOT (pass) was Jan 2017 but it's been SORNd and in the garage since summer 2017. Starts up fine when jumped and gets driven around to keep things okay. Quite a few mods including exhaust, filter, new refurbished alloys, spacers, throttle controller etc, see my build page below. Had done 48k miles as of the MOT and was garaged shortly that so under 50k miles, few paint issues (scratches) and slight repaired tear in the hood but only want about £4k for it bearing in mind it will need to be trailered and a bit of work done to it.

I'm looking to get rid of my revup roadster in blue, 56 plate, last MOT (pass) was Jan 2017 but it's been SORNd and in the garage since summer 2017. Starts up fine when jumped and gets driven around to keep things okay.. Quite a few mods, see my build page. Done about 50k miles, few paint issues (scratches) and slight repaired tear in the hood but only want about 4.5K for it bearing in mind it will need to be trailered and a bit of work done to it.

Going to cut to the chase, just want to get rid off as easily as possible. Webuyanycar say £5.5k so if a forum member wants it for that ono they can have it, but also looking to see if I'm being stupid Info as per my build thread [url=https://www.350z-uk.com/topic/107513-stans-roadster/]HERE[/url] Basically: 56 plate roadster, azure blue, built in sat nav etc., revup model so 296bhp Mileage about 50k I think, but it has been SORN without MOT for a couple of years now, but has been garaged since and started up occasionally. Mods include: Refurbed Rays with blue locking nuts, the old set of rays can go with the car if needed JWT Popcharger Stubby aerial Z badges all round 15/20mm spacers front/back Front brace (the one sold on here that goes between the slam panel and the normal strut brace) Aluminium slam panel Japspeed K4 exhaust (loud) Mishimoto rad Some blue engine detailing D1 spec controller hardwired in Latest version of the DVD for the sat nav Bumper tuck LED lights replacing all interior bulbs and sidelights Bad points: Small tear in the corner of the roof but doesn't let water in No MOT (obviously, but it passed fine before I garaged it) Battery is dead but I can jump it from my other car and it runs like that Some scratching on the drivers wing/bonnet that I can't seem to polish out, but isn't that noticeable. I replaced the bumper lights with DRLs but they have stopped working. Anyway, that's about it, let me know if you think I'm being stupid or if anyone wants to come trailer it away then by my guest

Yeah you can leave it in all the time. I have a OBD2 splitter so I have my bluetooth reader on it and the D1 controller as well. My D1 turns off with the car being turned off so figure the power must be off

I have a nextbase 212 in my daily, hardwired in to the fusebox (you can get piggyback fuse adaptors on ebay which enable you to plug it in to a fuse that is only live when the ignition is on, and then plug the fuse on top. The best bit about the nextbases now is that they have magnetic hooks on the mount, so you can slide the camera off the mount to take out at night without unplugging anything (and just buy a new mount/wires if you have another car so you can then move it to another car in seconds).

People say you get what you pay for... I've had a japspeed on for a year with no sign of any issues so far. As said, we all have different budgets and spunking over a grand on an exhaust is too much for me. I'd say go for it if you like the look of it

Easiest job to do after the stubby swap, 2 screws to undo, lift it up to the existing higher holes, bolt/cable tie in place, job's a good'un

You work at the garage, or you mean it's one you use for spraying? Would be good to get some more recommendations

Just out of interest how much did you pay for this? I had some bad customer service from them about 10 years ago regarding quotes but may give them a second chance if they matched your spoiler (mine is azure too)

Is it ok to tap into the interior light wiring for this mod?

I thought a dodgy thermostat only caused overheating, not underheating? However for the sake of £50 maybe I'll just get it done anyway

The garage did the replacement rad so not sure, however it existed before the rad change so maybe it is the thermostat?

Not sure how to check oil temps?
