A question i raise to all 370z / Nismo owners, and i will warn you this may seem daft to some, but if so I've genuinely never noticed in nearly 4 years of ownership. I went to move the Nismo today not realising the bonnet was open, and more importantly no warning light on the display. It was only a neighbour who flagged me down that I then became aware. So with that said, does the 370z / Nismo have a bonnet open warning like the doors or boot? And if so why doesn't mine work?

[SOLD] - Nissan 370z Invidia Gemini catback exhaust
Olly350z replied to Olly350z's topic in 370z Parts For Sale
Thanks Stu. As said in PM's to admin I've recently had another OP on my back so this is the best it'll be, currently have stitches so won't be doing heavy lifting. Pictured here is the backbox, and then the two additional boxes have the exhaust all boxed up for its new owner -
You're braver then me, there's no way I'd let someone drive mine like that. Genuine question though, who is this guy? It's like he's sprung up from nowhere and everyone's letting him take their cars out. Shows that in the right hands 370z can certainly keep up with the competition

Gallery Gaskets, not sure if they have been done
Olly350z replied to SW66TTT's topic in 370z Technical
Sounds healthy to me -
Grab yourself a bargain, this is a used but like new Nissan 370z Invidia Gemini catback exhaust system. Was purchased in February 2023 last year costing £1330 and fitted to my Nismo 370 and has been on the car for approximately 1000 miles. Comes complete with all gaskets, bolts and fixings and will fit your 370z and Nismo no issue. Not overly loud and no drone with this system, perfect for increasing that smile factor without annoying your neighbours, only removed as fitted an ARK V2. Price £1000 Cash on collection PayPal (you pay fees) Bank Transfer Location : West Sussex

Olly350z replied to SW66TTT's topic in 370z Technical
The only definitive way to know if the gaskets have been done if you don't have a receipt is to either hook up an independent oil pressure gauge and check, or to pull the front timing covers off mate. -
Okie dokie, will sit tight and wait for the nod

Any leftovers that I could order?

The door actuator will have become frozen, possibly due to corrosion. We've had this at work yesterday on an S2000. The tech managed to get the door open by holding the handle open, and quite violently rocking the door until it released Its a long shot, but it did save the customers door card

I've since does all the interior bulbs and didn't have to fit one resistor. There no cantus system on our Nismos so you'll be fine

Holy thread revival Batman! Well what's happened in a year and a half? Honest answer, not alot other then collecting and hording parts in the vain hope life might quieten down, but alas no! But, let me check in on the few bits I've got. So, first up on the list was a used ARK Grip V2 purchased from Torqen. It's well known these don't fit a Nismo V2 without work, so that's quietly waiting to go on Next up after meeting Lewis at JDM COMBE and seeing his, I purchased a 4th brake light, which I got fitted. Love how this looks at night, really changes the backend And a picture at Coombe, of course I then managed to source a set of the MK2 arch trims as mine were removed by the previous owner. My lord they were expensive! Top tip, if you want to remortgage your house, sell these trims! So far the parts room (spare room) has a full set of new drilled and grooved discs and pads waiting to go on, a MK1 Nismo spoiler and a set of coil overs. I had the car serviced & MOT'd at Nissan last weekend to maintain the full history, another year passed and no advisories Not sure on what to do next, thinking about wheels but also have seen a very nice OEM plus steering wheel, so maybe we'll see how we get on. Catch you on the flip side !

I'd replace all 6 coilpacks if it was me, that's what I did on mine when it started mucking around. It ran like an absolute dream afterwards, better then it ever had done Euro car parts do an OEM equivalent pack that I kid you not was identical to nissans, even down to the mould lines on the casing. At a fraction of the overall cost...

Pete must spend an awful amount of time shaking hands with everyone 🤣

Michilan PS5's are considered probably one of, if not the best tyre on the market, which is good if you feel like dropping a large amount of cash on them. Personally? I rate Falkens, which are a very good midrange tyre and i sell alot of them through work, Hankooks another's. To be honest it's all very subjective, some will want the best of the best to do a 1000 miles a year, others will settle for budgets on a daily driven rear wheel drive car. Its up to you

Cracking roller that.

On cold start, there is a considerable difference, it's a deep rumble with a lovely clear tone. When up to temperature and idling, I'd go as far to say its louder then OEM, but not by much. Under throttle you get that distinctive nissan sound, and I've been told from behind it sounds amazing, really compliments the style and looks of the car. Is it worth buying? Absolutely, the quality, the fitment, the brand Vs cost effectiveness are all major buying points. Is it going tickle that loud itch? Maybe not, but then I've passed the age of wanting obscenely loud exhausts

I posted this back in February of this year, which was my review of the Invidia on my MK2 Nismo. It's definitely gotten louder with miles on the car. I've been told that from behind It's reasonably loud with an amazing tone so can only assume its not as clear in the cabin. I won't lie, I probably will be chaning it out at somepoint for something slightly more but time will tell. I would post the link to the thread but it did get ruined by certain members "So an update for those who are in a similar boat as me with a MK2 Nismo On Monday the Invidia Gemini that I ordered from Tarmac Sportz turned up, perfectly packaged and right on time. Today after work I decided to make use of the workshop and fit the exhaust myself, as why have a dog and bark yourself. I want to say a massive thank you to Bob and Chris at Tarmac sportz for first class service, information and options I will say the Invidia Gemini was not my first choice, which was the ARK grip V2 however out of the box these do not fit MK2 nismo's and require welding to fit, which I couldn't bring myself to do on a £2100 pound system out the box. The welding and design on the invidia is gorgeous, and a credit to them. Removing the old system was a breeze part due to a workshop full of tools and a relatively low mileage exhaust system. Total time for removal and fitting the Invidia was an hour and a half. Fitment is perfect in terms of not hitting the chassis or differential clearing sections including the lower chassis brace and the rear bumper. It's not perfect cosmetically as due to the longer rear on the Nismos the tail pipes do sit shorter in the bumper then ideally liked, however I have been since able to realign them for a better fit. They are on the smaller side for Nismos so could ideally benefit from 5 inches tips in the future. Sound wise it's borderline perfect, with a deep rumble at cruising speed and a love tone under throttle. As others have said its everything the Nismo should have been from the factory. Personally, I'd have liked a touch louder so in the future I'll be looking to get the Y pipe baffles removed. Overall I'm very very happy considering the battle us Nismos owners have getting an exhaust. Hopefully with time it'll get a little louder"
