    J Best - Supercharged 350z Built buy Abbey Motorsport
  3. Definitely don't go for a porsche!! Unless it's a GT3RS in riviera blue or a '91 911 turbo If big power is what you're after, my eyes would definitely be looking at R32 GTR's and there's only one way the price of those cars is going and it's not down. Get one before it's too late!
  4. Hey! Anyone here had their steering wheel retrimmed?? Even better in the Herts area..? I've seen a few outer wheels people have purchased as ebay specials, but I do find a few of these max power esque and they're really not to my taste.. Sorry not sorry. I just want to keep the standard wheel, but go for a nice alcantara and maybe some orange stitching. Please let me know if you have! Also, how long it took/ removal/ install etc. Thanks
  5. No, no, no... Was not me that spent that amount of money!!! One of the main reasons I went for the car!! Story was I was at a Letworth meet in my Subaru - saw this and obviously, 350z on Rays wheels with a big old intercooler at the front got everyones attention. Especially of my good friend Joe who also has a nice grey 350.. (Sorry Joe) Guy puts a for sale sign up in the window, got out his car with a Subaru t on and I made a joke saying he knows what's up. My friends and me got talking and he was after a Hawkeye STI.. I said some of the mods, being a big Subaru guy he knew it was all good stuff.. 3 weeks later and a few ££££ I had the car! With many of my friends owning S15's I really had fallen in love and wanted one, but after a few weeks in the 350 I absolutely love it!
  6. This is a great list! Hello again Mr Oilman Cheers!
  7. Cheers Gizmo! Just out of curiosity - the louvre. I really like the look of that! Is this a Zociety one? If so, how much was it after import etc? Don't know how it would go with the Nismo spoiler, but that can also be changed..
  8. Unfortunately, it's really not that cheap. All the work on my car was carried out at Abbey Motorsport and between the Supercharger, supporting mods, labour and dyno runs to map the supercharger, along with VAT it cost: £9675.95 - 15/05/2015 I'll upload a pic of the invoice for the supercharger if you're interested?
  9. Ah, definitely be doing it all myself. Just assumed there'd be a thread detailing all the what to do's.. I'll have a look around. Thanks though!
  10. Hey everyone, New Z owner and new member to the forum. Already seen my car was in the spotted forum a few weeks back on a drive home: http://www.350z-uk.c...s/#entry1669356 Basic spec list (Still working on it): Vortech V3 Supercharger Abbey Motorsport Remap CJ Fuel Systems - Fuel Return System Hi flow Air flow meter GT MAF Walbro 342 fuel pump Trust - DE Uprated Sump Kit ASNU VQ35 752cc Injectors and Pnp Loom Abbey oil cooler kit HKS Iridium 8 spark Plugs MotorDyne 5/ 17 Plenum spacer Viperseal heat shield/ thermal sleeve Cobra exhaust HSD Mono Pro Coilovers Rays volk LMGT wheels Nismo gear knob The car is running 396bhp @ the wheels, which equates to 420 @ the fly and is incredible to drive! Previous notable cars: Hawkeye Impreza STI - running 361bhp (This and £500 got me the beauty, that is the 350z) Celica GT4 St205 - 255bhp (Was meant to be a 350z, but on my trip to tradelinkcars I come across it. Being 19 and on a budget, as well as being a fan of rally, it was the car to have at the time.) My plans for the car - totally undecided. Rear window Louvre and a rocket bunny spoiler? Chassis mounted BGW? Canards? Who knows... I know that I want to get the front bumper resprayed, few very minor things touched up and most importantly, carry out a full service in the next 1000 miles, then take a trip down to Abbey for a remap, dyno run and check over. Is there a thread for a full service - parts needed/ quantity of fluids?? (Be grateful if someone could link me! ) Also, what engine oil does everyone run? I imagine Fuchs Titan Pro Race/ Gulf Competition are the top of the list, but what's the fave on here? Nice to meet you all!
  11. It was me.. Glad you like my car - everyone loves the sound. Cobra exhaust along with a vortech supercharger for ya
