  1. Yeah I completely forgot that haha. I'm sure I'll have missed bits should've walked the car with a note pad so I remembered!!
  2. 100quid powt d on the spats before Christmas to make room in my garage haha
  3. Springs SOLD Lip still here. Willing to wrap up if you're willing to sort a courier
  4. Well I know of one for sale if you want to go back on it hahaha. I'll definately have another when I've finished smashingbthe house apart
  5. Thanks mate! I'll be gutted to see it go
  6. I have just bought a new house and I now live so close to work that unfortunately the zed just doesnt get any use, that combined with the plans for the new spot means I just can't justify it being sat on the drive doing nothing. It really pains me to do this but i'll definitely be coming back to zed ownership once the house is finished in a few years. So onto the car. As I'm sure most of you will have done, I looked for ages to find the right car for me. Going through the 'usual' traders and travelling the length and bredth of the country to see loads of bangers I finally found this car in Sheffield. Although the window tints and black wheels at first made me dubious, the owner was actually great and had really looked after the car. He'd even averaged low 40s MPG which is ridiculous (he must've pushed it to work as I never managed anywhere near this). After a good inspection I had it up on ramps at home (I'm a mechanical engineer by trade if it makes anyone feel better) to check the usual suspects and found all the suspension (especially the cursed banana arms) to be in great condition. The tyres also have loads of life left in them The car itself I have owned for a smidge under a year. Its currently sat at 73,000 but will rise very slightly as I still love using the car on weekends! I think I've put 1-1500 miles maximum on it in my ownership. The MOT is due in Feb 17 but the car hasn't had an advisory on it yet and I regularly inspect the car so I have no fears at all for it. The car was serviced at 69k (it has full service history) so there's a good stretch before the next one and the belts were all replaced a few weeks before my ownership. As soon as I bought the car I had it professionally machine polished and it comes up beautifully. I have both fob keys and the original security key I enquired about the clutch and was told the previous owner had had it done but he had no proof of this. I decided to take a chance and believe him as the car pulls very strongly and it doesn't have a hint of slipping (which I can prove on a test drive) even on the hills around our area, an there are no receipts for the other bits that can be clearly seen. So to the nitty gritty. All the electrics work, windows go up and down effortlessly and there are no knocks bangs or squeaks from either the engine or the suspension. The car pulls really nicely in any gear and sounds amazing. Being a facelift revup GT the car benefits from BOSE 7 speaker stereo system (head unit replaced with a double din Alpine unit, Bluetooth, USB etc). RAYS forged wheels Brembo brakes all round (fantastic condition and stop the car on a penny). LED tailights HID headlights with working washers in the facelift front bumper Full black heated electric leather seats (which I also cleaned and leather renovated so theyre lovely). Electric wing mirrors Freezing cold AC Cruise control There have been some very minor modifications, these being: EPR 25/20mm hubcentric wheel spacers Refurbished Rays in bronze, door handles painted a satin version of the same colour Apexi drop-in filter Silver interior vent inserts COBRA resonated exhaust (sounds a touch growlier than OEM) Strut brace De-wipered (I have kept the wiper and arms it would be a 30min job to change it back) Stubby aerial from Tarmac sports So bad points then. .Very slight car parking ding under the door handle (you can only see from certain angles). .Slight notch sometimes when changing into 5th when the cars been stood for a while in the cold (goes when its warmed up, I fully intended to fix this with a fluid change and molyslip but it never happened over summer). This is really rare and to be honest will only do it once until the cars warmed up and its fine then. On a warm day it doesn't do it at all. .Being a 2006 (and a Nissan) there are some stone chips on the front. I believe the previous owner had had the front bumper resprayed but these are starting to appear again. These are all minor points but I'd rather be 100% honest. Price wise I'm looking for 7300 ONO. I'm not looking for a quick sale (probably a good thing right before Christmas!!). I've probably missed something glaringly obvious so feel free to ask me any questions either by pm or openly on here, I apologise the pictures show the car covered in water but ive had to dodge the rain to get the car cleaned and photographed. I'll happily take close ups or more photos of anything required and either post here or directly to our phone.
  7. Messaged mate. And they're already boxed up ready to go!
  8. I'm not sure what the exact drop is but they're the Stech springs and they give a nice height (not a huge drop so sounds about tight). I think they're the only springs Tein do for the 350z but I can't be sure of that. If you'd like them feel free to drop me a message
  9. Right my Z is going up for sale tomorrow so I'm selling off a few bits I planned to fit which are now no longer required First is a brand new RT performance mines front lip for facelift 350z. Again I never got round to fitting this. I test fitted it and it's nearly perfect just some trimming required if you're really fussy. Paid 200 so after 175 Second is a set of Tein S tech springs. Was told by the seller that they'd covered less than 2000miles and I can believe it by the nearly new condition. After 90 for these. Due to size ideally I'd like collection from Heysham (Lancaster). But I will entertain courier if you're happy to take responsibility (mainly the lip as I wouldn't want it damaged in the post).
  10. Sorry for the slow replies we've been moving house. Everyone that's messaged me will get a reply now and yes it's just the spats left for sale. I'll be adding a mines front lip and Tein springs end of the week too
  11. They're sold paid for and tomorrow will be shipped sorry pal but yeah contact tarmac sports directly. You're right about the postage too, I'm taking a big hit because of it Spats are still for sale though
  12. Bought these from Tarmac sports but have decided to sell the car so having a clear out. Both are gloss black and have only been taken out of the packaging for photos. After 140posted for the side steps and 110posted for the rear spats. Collection would be from Heysham near Lancaster if that helps anyone.
  13. How much dish is there on the wheel please? Also what conditions the material in?
  14. Followed a 53plate pre facelift through windemere and there's another silver 05 facelift parked next to me at the low wood hotel car park. Looks like it's on XXRs, anyone on here's?
  15. Yeah that makes sense, didn't think it would be for the charge air.
  16. That's brilliant thank you mate, and cracking drawing! How much would you be after for it? I'll Need to make sure it'll work size wise for what I'm after too
  17. Could you measure the front area for me (sorry to be a pain im actually thinking for my honda track car)
  18. Ahh ok. Is it for cooling the supercharger itself? The ports look really small on the sides unless it's the picture?
  19. Is that an oil cooler? How much and would you post?
  20. Bought a set of these two weeks back from You. Out of interest do you have a decent fitting link. I know they're straightforward enough just want to know if there's a better way to trim and attach them than I was going to use
  21. Cheers buddy. I would be open to sensible offers as I'm moving house
