Welcome back!

Number 51 here  (White)

 

Like Paul said 120 registered to the UK. Numbered to each regional market. Glad to see another one in safe hands, mine wasn't in the best state when I picked it up so getting it back to perfect.

Can see my little thread here

 

 

Already had a read through your thread, sounds like you're giving her the right treatment! Luckily this one just needs a good detail and a minor service just because I'm picky!

This one is apparently #210 so not sure on their numbering!

Is that the one that poped up on Facebook at 26k the other day

I don't believe it to be... I'll do you a deal at £25k though😉

Nice mate, looks like a aftermarket exaust😁

Yes I believe they're torqen short tails! On the look out for some helmholtz/resonated test pipes and then uprev time as I want to try improve the throttle response! Previous German cars have been a little more lairy on the accelerator😆

Approximately 120  v1's originally in the uk, i think 90 of them were in white, the really rare colours were universal silver and some were black, they were superseded by v2 in 2015, but there are both v2 and v1's around on a 2015 plate

Wow they are mega scarce... I will likely get a build thread going shortly! She's in dire need of a clay bar and machine polish, but I'm very particular!!!

Hi chaps, 

 

Been absent for a couple of years after going through a few German cars... Now back in a Z in the form of a 2014 370z Nismo

 

I realise the Gen1s are rare and are also numbered, but does anyone know any info on how many were registered in the UK market at all? 

 

Just very curious as I can't find any info anywhere!!!

 

Failing that I may see how helpful Nissan will be at releasing such info 🤣

Picked up a 370z nismo gen 1 and after a few bits... 

 

Boot lid springs/poppers - common to break I think? 

 

Any other aftermarket goodies too!!!

Cheers pal, if nothing turns up I'll carry on without it (not that im driving anywhere anyway!) and perhaps contact you when life gets back to normal? 

Yeah no worries at all, just make sure you don't tighten the plenum down too much there as it won't be supported, under that position, and could crack if not careful! 

No worries 

That's frustrating! I made plenum spacer kits for a while, although I'm out of the workshop for the foreseeable... if you get really stuck and I'm back at work, I'll turn one up for you 

Thanks chaps, it's a great car, certainly will take some topping! Another zed is still in the back of my mind... maybe one day

Can't bring myself to give it up yet... now running a primary decat and making some awesome noises, even by zed standards

The 62l tank isn't great and returning 230 miles for about £75 is getting a bit tiring lol 

Good to see this is in good hands! Saw it advertised and was tempted myself

Interested to see what else you got lined up for the Z!

Looks like an awesome piece of kit, not sure I'm ready to give up my M3 yet or I'd be all over this!

you're probably right but i think i'll advertise as is and see what response i get for now

i'm in no mad rush

There's almost certainly someone interested in it, in current state depending on the rest of the car too!

Can spray wd40 on the belts which should make them stop squealing if they're causing the noise. May be worth changing them anyways!

Can check their tightness or condition which doesnt take 5 mins too

Miss my 350z... a lot more than I thought I would. Fear that if I have another one it won't ever feel the same again! Currently in an E92 M3 and suffering even more frequent visits to petrol stations

Would love to attend as it was a great show last year.

However my Z has gone and I think I would look very out of place on the stand. Hopefully still make it down to see some familiar faces

If I was back in the market for another Z I would be jumping up and down to go look at this! 

GLWTS

To me, the design of the later Y pipe looks better

I believe japspeed made them like that and now the above is more easily accessible and cheaper.

Potentially up for swapping the M3 with (cash my way) for another Z if a nice clean, low mileage one pops up! 
Not only do I get another zed but some spare cash to please the missus to make it look like I’m making an effort... 

M3 might have to go quicker than first planned... possibility for a house purchase is around the corner and I think the sensible side of me is telling me to get on the ladder! Hopefully it doesn't come to selling, the car is gorgeous and I love it, but everything is for sale at the right price

Does all seem a bit suspect to me! GT4s are only going to get more scarce, tempted to put it back OEM+ as it does needs saving but might be too far gone...

Nice GT4 for sale with some good mods, very tempted I have to admit... 

Would certainly get rid of the red though

@reeceybeaney Just spotted the Abarth - Snap ! 

Great little cars! It's my mums which she uses a couple of times a week... More than happy to use that, whenever she isn't, to keep the miles off the M3

This is quite the machine... anyone with a 350z looking for an upgrade, but don't want anything too electric and modern... I highly recommend!
