Still looking. Would consider a pair if someone doesn't want to sell them separately. I'm also happy to pay for a courier if anyone is happy to package them up.

Is anyone selling a cloth drivers seat in good condition? Ideally in the Devon area although I don't mind travelling a little bit for one.

Would also consider an aftermarket exhaust system if anyone's thinking of selling one.

Hi,
Ok thanks. I'll enquire what the price difference is for leaving car with them or not....
Have you used them yourself?
Yes I have. I had a pair of rays te37s repaired by them. I hit a pothole and bent the outer rim quite badly. They managed to straighten out the damage and refurb them. Came back looking brand new.

South west wheel repairs in Exeter are very good and I've only ever heard good things about them. They're not the cheapest but do give a very good finish. I think they have the space to store your car whilst they work on the wheels but if you can take them off yourself that would probably be easier for them. I think it's £66 per wheel.

I have a cobra one, flexes need repairing but you can have it for a tenner. Pm me if that's any good for you mate. Don't worry I've just read up after the page loaded lol
Thanks for the offer but the flexes have gone on mine so need one in good condition.

Forgot to put that, for a DE.

As above looking for a oem y pipe for a 2004 350z in good condition. Ideally in the Devon area so I can collect or I'll pay for a courier if someone's happy to post it. Thanks in advance!

I'm trying to do a bit of research about it and so far haven't seen anything that says it can't be done. Mine isn't in too bad condition, only 2 conrod journals have some slight marking but just about bad enough for it to need doing.
I'm just trying to see if anyone has used a machinist that's good. I'd rather go to someone that's recommended if I can.

i would hold out on buying new bearings untill you have your crankshaft reground, there is a required clearance between the bearings and journals, also possibly cheaper to buy 2nd hand.
I did spot an ebay company a few months ago who collect and also supply the required bearings. i'm in noway affilliated with the company, i was looking into rebuilding an engine alittle while ago.
Thanks for the reply. I know I need the crank ground before I buy bearings but haven't seen many places I can buy from. I've seen a few companies selling more performance orientated bearings but I'm only after fairly standard ones as I don't want to be spending huge sums of money on them.
Thanks the the link I'll have a look at that, could be handy if they supply the correct bearings I'll need as well.

Hi,
I'm after a bit of advice on having my crankshaft machined. Just wandering if anyone knows of a good machinist to take it to in the Devon area?
Also where would the best place to get new bearings from?

Thanks for the warm welcome! The car was delivered today so I will hopefully start having a look at it over the weekend and see whether it's worth rebuilding the engine or just drop another engine in.

Hi everyone,
Thought I'd just say hi as I've just purchased my first 350z. I've been thinking about one for a while and I've ended up taking a gamble on a very cheap one with bottom end knock. Its a 2004 in sunset orange with just over 100,000 miles on the clock. It's a fairly clean car but needs a couple of bits tidying up as well as sorting the engine.
I'm hoping I don't regret it and can get it up and running nicely again soon but I was after something as a bit of a project so looking forward to getting stuck into it.
I'm having it delivered on Thursday so I'll put a few pics up over the weekend before I go taking it apart ready for the rebuild.
The only pic I've got at the moment.
Exhaust recommends please folks....

Cobra resonated! I recently fitted one I got from cougar store and was very impressed. Nice quality exhaust for the money, fits well and looks good. Most importantly sounds awesome. Not too loud when cruising/part throttle but opens up nicely when at full throttle.
