  1. I'll be pulling mine out in a couple of months to put in an android auto HU, if you can wait then it will be up for sale.
  2. Sold/given away, thread can be locked. Thanks.
  3. Sorry about that, I'll bear it in mind next time.
  4. Preparing my HR for putting in an aftermarket head unit, so no longer need the stock 350z bluetooth adapter. Not really sure if anyone would need a replacement, but if so let me know and I'll send it out to you. Cheers, Ewan.
  5. I'm in King's Lynn - always up for a drive so drop me a message if you want
  6. Looks good - I'd probably go with this if I'm honest: https://www.halfords.com/technology/car-audio/apple-carplay/sony-xav-ax100-6-4-car-stereo-with-apple-carplay-android-auto On offer currently for £299, only thing it doesn't have is DAB, however you get a physical volume knob which I'm a big fan of.
  7. Stretching the "no spam" rule slightly - a long way to go to hit 100 posts though! I've noticed it on the forum a couple of times in the last few weeks - anyone who is really active with commenting always seems to have a car pop up in the Zed's for sale section!
  8. That looks really good - I'd buy that!
  9. A code reader is only a tenner - why not pick one up to check what it was? I had an O2 sensor error flash up recently - cleared it and it hasn't come back - but at least I know what was going on.
  10. Well that was simple - I put the fuse back in the wrong slot. For anyone who happens to be as thick as me in future and finds this thread - the 10amp fuse between the two 15s on the bottom row is meant to be in the slot below the fuse puller.
  11. Hi, my 57 plate HR is having a few electrical issues. Yesterday I pulled a fuse to check the fuse size from the compartment near the accelerator pedal. I replaced the fuse after about 10 seconds. Today when driving the car, I noticed that all the clocks/mpg settings had been reset to 0, and that the indicator dash lights were not functioning (actual indicators are working fine) I assume this has something to do with the fuse I pulled, but I've replaced all the fuses along the bottom row and this hasn't helped! I'm not sure exactly which fuse I pulled, but I'm fairly sure it was one of the 10's along the bottom row - all of which I have tried replacing. From searching on the forum other people have had similar problems which always resulted in a bad fuse, however there symptoms also included the dome & trunk lights not working - except they are fully functioning on mine. Is there something I'm missing here? Any advice would be really helpful. Here's a photo of the fuse box if it helps: Thanks
  12. I use this: https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01AC7I7BO/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1 alongside the Torque app for android. Works perfectly - most recently used to view an O2 sensor error code and clear it. You will need one that works via WiFi if you have an iPhone. I don't think there's been any advancements in OBDII hardware - it's 20+ year old technology now, but it works well so no need to change i guess!
  13. Other people seem to have put this down to the cats being incredibly hot and burning off residue left on the exhaust. I picked up my Z a couple of weeks ago and have noticed something similar when I slow down after flooring it - I don't think it's a problem.
  14. Why has it stopped working? Is there fluid in it, are any of the pipes broken, or is the pump not working? PM Zmanalex
  15. I've had 2 quotes so far from body shops near me, one at £433, and the other for £360. Does this seem about right? Seems a lot more expensive than I would have thought to sand and paint one panel.
  16. I'm 22 - 4 years NCB - insured with admiral with aftermarket exhaust declared for £750. It all greatly varies depending on where you're located though, so it's not easy for anyone here to advise tbh! Admiral are pretty good on mods, only costs a few quid to add some fairly hefty modifications, but they will only restore the car to stock if you were to crash it.
  17. I'm in King's Lynn so not too far away, I'm assuming we've got the same black paint as I think there are a few variations? May want to check that before we agree on anything as I don't really want to have to pay for a respray.
  18. Mines in pretty good condition, no chips or anything so pretty mint. Got any more pics of the bumper and the chip? What's the reason for getting rid, just don't like the look of it?
  19. Anything wrong with the Veilside bumper? I've got a black HR if you wanted to swap?
  20. Thanks for the info - so if the panel has already started rusting in 5 places no more than 1x1cm, would it be too late to try touch anything up?
  21. Hi, I just noticed the 350z I picked up last week has about 5 stone chips on the roof that have started to bubble, with one having rust visible. Here's a photo of the worst one. I'm guessing I'll have to get a full sand down and respray on the roof - anyone got any idea of costs for this? Running low on funds due to purchasing the car, so if I don't get it fixed immediately I assume this isn't a big problem? Any advice/similar experiences would be useful. Thanks
  22. I'll put this in a list for people to continue: 1 & 2 - alfa_Owner 3 - craigmdennis 4 - StuZGT 5 - baileydom 6 - Kryptek49
  23. Best place to get a new clutch & flywheel will be Zmanalex, I believe the HR's have a poor CSC so this should be swapped at the same time, as well as putting on a braided clutch line. Do you plan on doing it yourself or will you be paying a garage? From a quick look on the forum, OEM clutches for the HR are very expensive and a lot of people go for the Xtreme single mass flywheel (instead of a dual) - however this will cause a lot of noise at low rpms. https://h-dev.co.uk/product/350z-hr-xtreme-clutch-single-organic-kit-inc-smf-and-csc-kni25688-1a-copy/?v=79cba1185463 - here's a link for a full kit, probably best to pm Zmanalex first though to see what he has available. FYI, my HR had a new Nissan clutch fitted (before I purchased it) @ Fast Eddy's in Norwich and this cost around £2,000 including parts & labour
  24. Hi, 1 week into owning my 350z and the check engine light is on... Error code is PO133 - O2 Sensor Circuit Slow Response - Bank 1 Sensor 1. Is the first step to replace the sensor? Anyone had this code before? I've searched the forum but nothing comes up Thanks
  25. I like to learn, I just haven't done coolant before! It seems fairly simple, old stuff out, flush it, new stuff in. I'll get there
