  1. If they are the bits on the middle left in this pic then yes I do; PM me an offer If not send me a pic of what you are after and I'll have a dig. Most of the stuff in this pic is for sale too
  2. Hi Folks, Trying to clear out a bit of space in the garage! None of these prices include delivery. Unless specified this stuff came off Josh's (Bodyboarder81) 2008 350z HR at about 27,000 when the SC was fitted. Feel free to ask any questions about separating things I've listed together, combining things that should be together, or to discuss prices. Also apologies if I've named something wrong - if you point it out I'll update the post! Rear camber arms and full set of drop links £40 (removed at 32,000 miles) Airboxes, filters and intake pipes £60 Engine cover £30 Plenum £40 Full set of suspension £130
  3. I bought Bodyboarder81's 350 Z, along with a full set of Ohlins suspension. I had the Ohlins fitted almost straight away. Having never driven a 350 with standard suspension I couldn't tell you how they compare, but I think there are lots of reviews on here. I certainly didn't have any complaints about the ride on the tein / bilstein setup, but having read about the ohlins, and them being available from bodyboarder81 with loads of other planned mods to the car I couldn't resist!
  4. Welcome! And SNAP (I think) mine is Night Blue with Frost leather, previous owner told me the interior is kind of rare.
  5. Had one of these for 5 years. Loved it. Only real problem I had was no one could get the alignment correct so it was always chewing the inside of the front tyres, think that's a common problem so keep an eye out on that.
  6. Apparently this would be better off in the 350z Parts For Sale page, would a mod kindly move it please?
  7. Cheers Dude, Apparently this would be better off in the 350z Parts For Sale page, would a mod kindly move it please?
  8. These shocks have done about 4000 - 5000 miles, and are less than 2 years old. Just had them removed from my 2008 350Z HR. The large washer (?) is missing from the top of the second shock from the right. In Coventry £330 + P&P
  9. These springs have done about 4000 - 5000 miles, and are less than 2 years old. Just had them removed from my 2008 350Z HR. In Coventry £120 + P&P Note: I've also listed a full set of Bilstein B6 Sport Shock Absorbers.
  10. How are you two checking the engine temps? Just using the stock needle on the dashboard? Or you using obd2? Still not sure what range is ok.
  11. have you got the Stillen stock charger cooler radiator? Sorry Mark, confused by your comment. As far as I know the frozen boost cooler went in instead of the stillen one. Sent from my ONE A2003 using Tapatalk Did you not get the stock Stillen rad when you brought the car? Yes I did. I thought the frozen boost was an upgrade and that's why the stillen wasn't fitted.

  13. It's running frozen boost intercooler. Thanks for the comments on the mm shroud. I'm going to take the car back with the stock rad and look into these other options. Sent from my ONE A2003 using Tapatalk
  14. Yep the stillen 25 row oil cooler is already in there. Horsham don't think that the thinner shroud will solve the fitting issue entirely (it will help some of it) . It will still need custom fabrication to stop from fouling the sc hose. Is there a mishimoto shroud for the HR? I don't see one. Sent from my ONE A2003 using Tapatalk
  15. Yep I bought this car from Bodyboarder81. Apologies for any confusion, I just gave the wrong link! Car and rad are both HR. When the SC was fitted the stillen oil cooler went on at the same time, along with high capacity greddy baffled sump. So seems I'm best off adjusting the coolant to start with. 75:25 water:motul inugel coolant with water wetter. Just to be clear, I am supposed to put 75% water in aren't I (as opposed to more antifreeze / coolant) sorry for the dumb question! And failing that I'll look at the MM shroud. And is this the water wetter? http://www.redlineoil.com/product.aspx?pid=74&pcid=10 Thanks!!
  16. Is there any preference between mishimoto and koyo rad? I'm at 465 BPH at the moment, so that should be fine ZMAN. So is that the same dimensions as stock?
  17. Hi, Thanks for such a detailed response GT4 Zed, community support on here is awesome! Is it possible for me to update the post title? I can't see a way. Yes you are right the shroud is standard. OK, so I'll get the standard rad put back in and have a play around with coolant options, failing that I'll have a look at the mishimoto shroud rad combination. Looks like the important word was missed from here, could you fill the blank in please? Most coolants are a 50:50 mix of antifreeze/antirust and water but it's the ??? that dies the cooling
  18. Here's the comments from Horsham..(not sure if pics 2/3 are in the right order) Pic 1 shows the blower belt fouling on the bottom radiator hose Pic 2 shows the radiator fouling the top blower hose Pic 3 shows the same but note the position of the radiator mounts ie they are further forward than they should be They also told me that the needed to get the blower out to get the rad in. So I think all of the fitting issues relate to the SC kit.
  19. OK, so the car's got a stillen SC. However the website says "Every Mishimoto aluminium radiator is a direct OEM fit, making installation effortless with no cutting or modification required" http://www.mishimoto...adiator-03.html That gives the impression that it will fit in the same space. I'm sure someone will point out, how does it cool better if it's the same size? I'm not rad expert but I can imagine that efficiency can be improved in the same space. Clearly that's not the case here; I know that now The previous owner tells me coolant temps get up to about 110 C on a hot day with spirited driving. Thanks for the info Josh So, thoughts on what I should do? Are there other rad options that will fit? Lower temp thermostat as Josh also mentioned? Squeeze the Mishimoto in with a load of time/effort/money? Would love to hear your ideas
  20. No need to apologise, certainly not your fault! Just glad it's done now I'm sure Nick won't notice it gone, seems to be spending most of it's life as a coffee table at the moment! Defo up for a meet when ZZZ is back and the weather perks up a bit. That's what I was trying to say lol Yeah, still not sure I know the answer to this. I know mines being sorted, but can other Z owners rely on the oil pressure to know they aren't at risk. As Rich said, perhaps that's not clear yet due to lack of examples?
  21. If the oil pressure reading is within the acceptable range, does that mean the engine is safe from this particular issue? Or could the oil pressure read OK and you still be at risk?
