  1. you bed them in during your first energetic drive
  2. Invidia Gemini Cat-Back Exhaust System
  3. i use stoptech sport brake pads on the drilled and slotted stoptech discs. They pack a bite on track
  4. Hi fellow Z lovers, After owning this beautiful car for over 5 years and actually purchased it from a trader from this forum, its time to make a change for my family and so, with great sorrow i am listing my 2007, GT spec, Rev Up, Dragon Silver edition with Full Service History since its very first steps. 7 Nissan Dealership stamps covering 65,5k miles and every service after that has been with Nissan specialist garages. Car has had 4 owners over its life (that includes me). Most recent upgrades (Within the last 12 months) are: - Upgraded Brakes & Discs (Stoptech's slotted & drilled discs and Stoptech Sports Brake Pads worth over £600), MOTUL RBF 600 racing brake fluid to accomodate them - Invidia Gemini Cat-Back Exhaust System with Tips : Rolled Titanium (worth over £1050). - Alloys dipped in anthracite giving a truly eye pleasing contrast to the Dragon Silver paint job. - other small additionals like the usual radio antenna upgrade and air and oil filters. - car has been serviced on average every 7000 miles which has been too often to be honest Interior is pristine. Nothing to write about engine as its never caused me issues and drives like a dream since i've had it. On suspension i only exchanged the banana arms 2 years ago and upgraded it to Torqens with the poly bushings as this is a common issue with the 350z. Tyres are new and have loads of life left- Goodyear Eagle F1 SuperSport on the Front and Falken XL ZE914 on the rear. Only Small scuff marks on the right side of the front bumper as you can see in the photo as well as the alloys but nothing that can't be fixed with a simple sanding and re-painting if needed although ive never done it as its not visible to the naked eye. This is GT spec so the highest one with cruise control, bluetooth, BOSE sound system and heated electric seats. Next MOT due 03/02/2022, Full service history. £6,799 ONO, London SE16 DM Me if you want any more information!
  5. fixed - fox ate my left wheel ABS sensor cable...
  6. the switch posted up top from Euro car parts does not fit my 2007 Nissan 350z... its 2 socket where i need is a 4 socket.
  7. thanks mate, i've ordered the brake switch and hopefully this solves it!
  8. HI Guys, Was cleaning the interior of my car getting it ready for a sale as im upgrading and to my surprise the next morning i turned it on, the ESP, Traction and ABS lights are on the dashboard. I've topped up my brake fluid to MAX (a little over even) and it didnt fix the issue. Any idea what could've happened? Its weird it happened just when i was cleaning the car, i dont know if there was a shortcircuit somewhere from the spray or something? Any ideas please welcome
  9. Thanks Paul for the offer! I already got it fitted on stock cats - i love it
  10. im South East London but wouldn't mind driving up to hear if you're proposing Not planning on re-mapping with just a catback exhaust change, although would do if i got the HFC and a new intake
  11. Hey Jack - appreciate your response. Im based in London :S Have you ever heard the gemini without a HFC i.e stock ? Is there a major difference?
  12. Hey guys, I've just purchased an Invidia Gemini cat back exhaust from Torqen (Thx @Adrian@TORQEN) and just wanted to understand the difference in sound & performance if i add a HFC? Based on your experiences, would you get the HFC ? I've been looking for videos for the Gemini w/o HFC installed and cant really find anything, most have HFC installed. Really want to know the difference in sound between having a HFC and not. Thanks for your help
  13. hey Zman - any chance to see what you got left in stock for front bumbers? Looking for facelift any color - thanks!
  14. Thanks Adrian you have been a major help. Will be ordering two new arms from you this week !
  15. I have full service history with all invoices and reciepts and it doesnt seem they have ever been changed - i think im going to just put my mind at ease and order new arms and bushes and have it all done!
  16. Just to close this topic: The problem was the DS banana arm dropping on its bushing. Thanks to all for the help!
  17. ok so sanity check: i went to see the arms again and here they are: PS: DS: Only the DS arm has dropped on the bushing. Would it be worth purchasing polyeutherane bushings and pressing them onto the existing arms first? And if the DS ball joint is gone, then i guess i have to purchase 2 new arms? (@mdmetal - as you mentioned its not a good idea to have 2 different arms on the car)
  18. So do you guys i think i should first try and just replace the bushings on the banana arm? - im not sure what the balljoint condition is :S Or should i replace both the bushings and the banana arms on both sides? Thanks
  19. Thanks so much, exactly what i was looking for!
  20. Hi All, Had my car on the ramp and as you can i my arm has fallen off its bushing on the right side. Help i need is picking the right components to order: I want to replace the right side CR and on the left side just that drop links, am i correct in thinking i only need to order these parts? 1) Banana Arm - Tarmac or Moog? any advice appreciated 2) Drop links - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/FOR-NISSAN-350Z-Z33-3-5-2002-FRONT-LEFT-RIGHT-ANTIROLL-BAR-STABILISER-LINKS/162247440076?hash=item25c6b376cc:g:RhoAAOSwKOJYGgOt Thanks for the help
  21. Hi All, I've recently got an unusual squeeking and knocking noise in my 2007 350z: Symptoms: 1. Squeeking when standing and turning wheel 2. Squeeking and a low volume knock at low speeds hitting bumps (only at the front) 3. There is also a weird knocking noise coming from behind the pedals when approaching a stop to 0kmh (when braking). It happens when im at about 20kmh -> 0kmh and braking softly. It isn't a squeek like would be if brakes were wearing out, but as if someone knocking with a hammer on the pedals (but there is no opposing force so braking feels normal and smooth) . Not sure if its linked with the squeeks from the suspension? I think its my compression arm and has fallen of its ball joint and will be taking it to check up ASAP. Any other ideas as to what the problem could be? Thanks for the help,
