  1. Hello and welcome! 

    Sounds like either crankshaft or camshaft sensors, we can supply genuine Nissan OEM if required. 

     

    Feel free to pop me a PM once you've diagnosed it. There's usually a couple of fault codes that go hand in hand with these. 

     

    Likely codes: P0340 P0345 P0335

    Cost of living crisis? 

    I've a stack of 370Z stuff from coilovers, door handles, lowering springs, an Injen system, bit's and bob's but I don't think any of it will shift...back in the loft it goes.

     

    eBay, Facebook marketplace + the 350z/370z for sale groups are your best bet, sold 99.9% of the parts from my 350z on there - maybe one/two parts on the forum - it's gone pretty quiet here.

    No, Id like to try other cars now, especially sports cars offering 2 seater experience and even EV as i have a home charger. Had 4 Zeds. Would have loved one 2-3 years ago but they were 50k plus then. That engine can be bought and swapped in a 370z. 

     

    Never say never. I do like the Nismo and the kit can be bought along with the seats. For what the Nismo costs (60,000+) many cars are available. Even supercars. 

     

    Id love to drive one when i go Japan next year hopefully. Can rent it and do the Hakone tour. Making me want to go within the next few months 😂. But itll be getting hot now....Can also rent the NSX cost a bit more though. Apparently it makes sense to transit via China which may start offering 10 days Visa free transit for shopping due to Tarriffs hmm.

    Personally, I'd just rent it yourself and drive it rather than going on an organised tour, there's a couple of companies - this is the one I used, had the GR Yaris RZ Performance (JP only trim) on Bilstein's from them and they were great. Went over the mileage by a considerable amount as we took it up Mount Fuji (in the snow lol) and they didn't even care.

    Not a huge range of cars but got a 34 GTR, a couple of 35's and a few other bits. 

     

    These guys are a lot bigger but I remember at the time had a minimum age of 23 or 25 and I think I was 22.

    Definitely recommend it though, Tokyo is so packed that it's nice to get in a decent car and go for a drive, especially around the Mt Fuji area. I feel like the tour would take away from the experience where you'd basically be getting told what to do for hours on end and following a big group of people.

  5. Have you bought a replacement? If not, judging by the way it's snapped, it's likely you'll need to. 

     

    If so, pop us a PM with your VIN so I can shoot you a link over to the correct one for your car. 

     

     

  6. Hi Guys,

     

    We've now released our 370z TORQEN MK2 NISMO conversion kits, miles cheaper than the OEM version and also made out of PP (Polypropylene) meaning they're flexible and fitment will be spot on, unlike running an aftermarket fiberglass version which may need some work to get it sat perfectly. 

     

    We've also developed a replacement for the 370z NISMO MK2 daytime running lights, previously only available from Nissan and costing over £1,600 for the pair. 

     

    They are currently being listed as special order and we have a batch in production.

  7. You can reuse the ones from your current wheels or purchase new ones but they're insanely expensive and will need coding once fitted. The TPMS sensors are integrated into the valves so you either use the work ones supplied and put up with the warning light, reuse your current ones which would just be a case of fitting the valves from your old wheels which have integrated TPMS sensors or fork out a few hundred quid for a full new set of sensors. Personally, I'd go option two if you're not planning on using your old wheels, works out a lot cheaper and you don't have to faff about with getting them coded. 

     

     

     

  8. I would take it for mapping after you've finished installing any additional mods you have planned, for instance a plenum spacer or high flow cats (assuming your current Cobra system is catback), that way you hit all the birds with one stone. 

     

    Not sure about track days but I'm sure you could get a few people together who would be up for it, normally the guys on here do the main shows (JapFest, JDM Combe etc.) We also have a yearly summer meet at our TORQEN HQ which is full of Z's and other JDM cars. 

     

    Here if you need help with any parts, we specialise in Z's and offer anything from OEM parts all the way up to full body kits & forced induction kits. 

     

    Enjoy your new Z :thumbs:

    Well it wouldn't be sorted as anyone who stocks the items would have the import duties built in to their prices really. You will still have to pay them 😆

     

    Debatable, buying in bulk brings down the shipping price per item, depending on the brand we will likely get some sort of discount as well. Plus you get the added benefit of ordering from a UK LTD company, easy to return stuff, file warranty claims, get immediate support which for on order that size are definitely things which should be taken into account. 
     

    Worth noting too, it's highly unlikely the products he's looking at are actually made in Europe, therefore they'll already have some premiums on top of the actual cost price from USA, Japan, China etc. 

     

    Anyway, we'll do our best to beat the prices on whatever he sends over, might work out or it might not but we can only try and help  :thumbs:

  10. Any orders from Europe over £150 will need taxes and duties paid on arrival, some companies registered for IOSS allow these to be collected at the checkout but this only applies for order less than £150. 

    So for the size order you're trying to place, take into account you will be paying 20% VAT on arrival and a 3-5% duty plus any customs broker fees from the courier. 

     

    The joys of Brexit.... at least the fish are finally happy.... oh wait that flopped too :lol:

     

    Oh to be back in the days where shipping to Europe was simply click a button, print the label and off it goes. Now at least an hour of my day consists of filling out customs forms, chasing up customers to pay the taxes locally (since the couriers 'can't contact them'). Even going to the post office, I'm stood there for 20 minutes filling in forms with a pen. Anyway, I'm ranting, take into account the above when placing your order from anywhere outside of the UK.
