Hi. I'd like to buy one of these if they are still available..

Ok update to this in case anyone is interested. Both motors were really old and looked crudded up and knackered. Found a new front motor on eBay for £7.99 but a rear one was £30.00. so I just bought 2 front ones.. Sure enough they are the same motor but with different connectors. As the connectors on mine looked knackered. So I cut them off and soldered in some insulated Spade connectors on both. On each motor the orange wire is the positive. Then I wrapped them in self amalgamating tape. Refilled, tested, worked. Quite happy with a £16 repair really.

Yeah I have ordered some aftermarket ones from eBay. Hopefully we're right :-)

Hello. I've had my Fairlady off the road for a little while to do some jobs. Started it today, tried to clear the screen and nothing from the screenwash. It's got liquid in, and it worked the last time I tried it. The front at least did the rear never has. Pulled the fuse, that was fine. Got the wife to try it while I was outside the car. No noise from either motor. So while she worked the switches I put a circuit tester across the fuse gap. 12v when either is activated. My guess is the motors have both gone. I just wanted to check out night be something else I haven't thought of. Any ideas?

Welcome! Nice car!

Have you tried the 350z UK Facebook page? I have seen some people looking to buy Zeds on there in the last few days.

Yeah same. Can't find anything other than 370z.

Short tails?

I've been chatting with a guy locally about buying his old Scorpion backbox. From the looks of it though it has a different fitment to the stock backbox. There is no flange just a sleeve type fitment where it would connect to the car's pipework. Do I cut the flange off the pipe that abuts the backbox to fit it or is this simply not compatible with my car? 2003 JDM FairladyZ "T". Otherwise unmodified. Thanks in advance.

Ah. Cool.. Thanks for your advice.

Probably worth doing the hoses at the same time?

Ok great thanks. I will add this this to the list of jobs I want to do. I assume there is enough technical know-how on the forum to assist me with the job.

Do you recommend flushing old oil out first? You know with an engine flush. I'm concerned that with 66k on the clock out might cause leaks.

Hi all. My Fairladyz has the Nissan brakes. Is it worth upgrading to brembos? Would the larger discs etc fit with my 17" wheels? Cheers Dan

Hellooooo

Hiya. Cheers for the response. In the cars key the battery has a diameter of like 10-12mm I'd guess. The new key case has a slot for the 20mm ones you mention. I was fairly confused.

Hello I bought a flip key case from Germany from eBay. It looks quite good quality but the battery compartment seems to be a cr2025 or cr2016 size The battery in my keys is smaller than this. Yet I have done of the batteries I've mentioned above and they fit in the new case. Did I buy the wrong one? Or should I buy a different key as a donor for the internals? TIA

Great. Now I just need to find one!

Hello Apologies if this has been asked before. But does anyone know if is possible to replace the digital Speedo/average speed/fuel use gauge for one that works with miles instead of km? TIA

Thanks everyone. The car arrived and I'm really happy with it. Not sure what trim level it is though as it's a JDM car with Bose Speakers (the subwoofer behind the drivers seat says Bose) and heated leather electric seats but no brembos and 17 inch wheels. Maybe a base spec with some optional extras.

Hello. My recently imported FairladyZ will be delivered to my home in Cheshire tomorrow. I'm extremely excited. I've already been looking around this forum and the advice and information sharing is great. Had to join.
