Blocko

Spotted a nice black 350 driving past the Fluke about an hour ago and last night a silver one parked up near the Pizza Hut on the vue business park.

Stopped off at the M6 services northbound. I can’t remember which as it was a 500 mile drive but while there had a black 56 plate park up next me me. Nice looking car with a vented bonnet. Alarm was going off (not caused by me I might add). It’s always nice to park up and come back out to find another Zed parked next door.

I've used Japspeed on other makes of cars but cannot comment specifically on the K4. I am also running Japspeed HFCs on the Zed. You have to remember that you are paying a LOT less than some of the more premium systems. These costs have to be saved somewhere and often that means the fitment and the lifespan might not be as good. As long as you are realistic with your expectations I think they are decent value.

My stock unit had the same CD issue. I tried several local auto electrical specialists and none could code a unit for me. You can swap out the CD changers if you get a secondhand headunit and have the desire to fix it. Personally unless you buy from someone like zmanalex, i wouldn't bother. Also the CD fault is common so your best bet is to upgrade now while you can and then you can also have DAB. If you do upgrade just remember that you need the fascia, harness and the steering wheel adaptors for it to all fit nicely.

Jimmy, Sorry to hear the news. I'm interested in the spats and the diffuser if these are still available please PM me. Thanks,

Why are the bits I want always miles away GLWS

i'm in but i'll be rubbish

As the others have said best phoning the DVLA. I had a golf once that I purchased off a guy who'd had it parked up in a field. He only had the new keeper supplement. I couldn't tax it because it wasn't on the database. I called them up. The DVLA had no record of who it had been sold to and at some point the previous owner had said they no longer owned it so it was just lost in the system. They transferred the paperwork to me and all was good. There was never any mention of past tax liability. Obviously I had the old new keeper supplement as proof of ownership so my circumstances were slightly different. And your relative shouldn't need to worry about any liability as that all falls with the deceased (I think). I had a quick google: Since the criminal liability of the accused is extinguished, no other person may be held liable for the crime personally committed by the deceased accused. The said liability may not be transmitted to his heirs. While it is true that obligations of persons are transmitted to his heirs or assigns through his death, this is only insofar as the right to succession of inheritance is concerned. This does not in any way overturn the specific provisions of our criminal laws.

Nick, Most wings wobble a bit. The new wing looks similar. I've been eyeing up this one: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/For-Nissan-350Z-Z33-Rear-Trunk-Spoiler-Boot-GT-Wing-Drift-Carbon-Fiber-INS-Style/182549819863?hash=item2a80d131d7:g:aiEAAOSwV0RXu~4W Haven't taken the plunge yet as not sure if my mostly stock exterior can pull it off or if the fitment will be any good so interested to see how you get on with the generic one. I could be interested in the old one if you are selling it off cheap

Mine is a daily driver also. I like the new noise it makes, feels like I'm in an aeroplane but i'm sure its only a matter of time until I get pulled. I'm driving to Inverness at the start of September so will put the bungs in for that to see if its better.

I missed the April Sizzler meet but unless i've missed some others I don't think there has been a Yate meet for a while. Are there any plans for another one? Just fancy an excuse to get out for a drive without the Mrs while its still summertime.

So I have the Buddy Club on my Exhaust. Its been on the car since around November and I love it. It is loud but sounds great and i'd recommend to most people (running without the optional rear bungs). One of my standard Cats deteriorated and meant emission failures. On a bit of a budget I ended up opting for Japspeed HFCs. I was wary as these get bad press but one fit perfectly and the other only just didn't fit (had to do away with the heat shield and the lambdas are currently cable tied as didn't reach). I had the garage test them for emissions and they passed without needing to be warmed (but they are brand new). I know these might not have a long life span but as the most affordable way of meeting the MOT requirements i'm so far thrilled with these. But... I read lots of posts saying that HFCs will make the car louder. Not as much as decats but noticeably and more raspy. I decided that these were so much cheaper than the standard CATS that it was worth the risk and I like noise anyway but OMFG the car is now REALLY LOUD. I think it must be double in volume. Not saying I don't like it but i'm sure its only a matter of time until I get pulled or the neighbours sling a brick through the house window

Glad to hear it is running well. I've just clocked over 103k so hopefully mine also has lots of life left. Aside from standard wear and tear parts I've only had to do the compression arms so far and my Cats. Most of the rest of my original parts seem to be holding up quite well (touch wood).

I liked the first Crew. Story was rubbish but racing coast to coast against my friends was cool. I had been looking forward to this but i'm put off by being able to instantly warp my car into a plane or a boat. That doesn't sound very immersive to me. As Cimanu said, will be worth a punt once is really cheap (its already down to £30).

Thanks but they are stateside. Surely there must be something in the UK.

Doh, Somehow I've put this in the 370 section. Should be in the 350 zone. Sorry

I love the low Ings Z-Power wing. I've attached images of the one I like. I cannot find this anywhere in the UK (please correct me if there is a distributor). I'm also struggling to find something that looks similar. I'm guessing I'm going to have to get a universal BGW and change the legs. I think the Ings leg design is a big part of why the look works. So questions: -Do all universal wings have interchangeable legs? -Where can I buy the legs that are quite 'chunky' looking? - The Ings spoiler is 1600mm. The ones I can find are either shorter or longer. Can anyone share pictures of their wings and the length on them? - Is anyone running low level wings who could show me pictures? Many thanks,

Thanks for that. I now know its the 1600mm Low version. What I cant find is anyone in the UK selling this?

Can anyone tell me what spoiler this is? Thanks,

I have one from my Rev Up. Its in decent nick but I have no idea what its worth. Where are you based?

Timing sucks, really want this but just paid for some HFCs and a load of stuff for my other car Life is so unfair. Good luck with the sale I'm sure it will fly off your hands.

I got these when I did mine https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FOR-NISSAN-350z-INFINTI-G35-FRONT-LOWER-REAR-SUSPENSION-WISHBONES-CONTROL-ARMS-/271796058144?hash=item3f484eb820:g:KWAAAOSwVJhZSQeA Quality was decent and solved all my knocking noises. Been on the car over 12 months and no issues with them so far.

I do expect I have part of the same issue. My commute is 7 miles each way but busy and county lanes. And then if me and the wife go out on weekends we tend to take one of the other cars so we can get shopping, passengers or the dog inside of it so the 350z rarely gets a proper run. That said I used to do a longer commute in previous cars and they all got sold on relatively quickly. I think no matter what car I have or the nature of the journeys I will always want something else....

I can confirm that I will be along tonight
