Hey Guys,
Happy to finally announce our 2024 summer meet that we host annually at TORQEN.
Date: 21st July 2024
Time: Starting from 12pm
Location: TORQEN, Unit 3 Quarry Court, Pitstone - LU7 9GW
Japanese cars only in the main area, if you want to pop down in the daily or have friends with other cars that are coming, that's fine - they'll just be parked on the main road or in another courtyard. No tickets required, just turn up on the day. We'll organise food and music so it'll be a great day out for the family. Static meet so no silly drifting or racing involved, we're in a small village!

If you're running standard power with no forced induction and you're not a drifter or on track every weekend, the simple answer is no, it would be a waste of money.

All 350z Y Pipes are the same, no matter if it's a GT4 or not, it will fit providing it's made for a 350.
What I always say is buy cheap, buy twice. If you buy a Y Pipe from eBay, chances are the flexi's will go again on it in the near future and you'll end up having to pay again for fitment costs which could be avoided by buying a quality product in the first place.
If it was me changing it, I'd go for something without flexi's at all, that's the most common failure point on the Y-Pipes.
Something like STILLEN or the V2 TORQEN Y Pipe.

Speak to Dan Skippy Thomas on Facebook, he's the expert when it comes to customising 350z/370z headlights, done tons for our customers and also customises the DEPO's which we sell. I'm sure he can point you in the right direction.

If they're made in the USA, I'll eat my own shoes right now on live stream
In all seriousness, I would go for something more reputable, the likes of Invidia, TOMEI, GReddy etc.
As they say, buy cheap, you end up buying twice and if you have any warranty issues shipping back to the states is going to be a killer.

Hi Geoffrey,
Welcome to the forum!
You'll probably struggle to find a used kit on here, unless you get super lucky, as soon as one comes up for sale they get snapped up very quickly.
If you are interested in a brand new kit, we have these options:
TopGun - Rotrex kit: https://www.torqen.uk/nissan/370z/turbos-superchargers/superchargers/72373-370z-z34-topgun-rotrex-c38r-supercharger-kit.html
Z1 Motorsports kit: https://www.torqen.uk/nissan/370z/turbos-superchargers/superchargers/236366-370z-z34-z1-motorsport-complete-supercharger-kit.html
Feel free to drop me a message if you had any questions.

The easiest way would be to take the engine out, have that shipped here, replace it with a standard engine and sell it in Spain.
Once you're here, find an equivalent rust free example and put the engine in.
With the amount of money and time you're going to spend on converting it, you may as well get a new one here and use the funds to upgrade that rather than a conversion.

Me and @Adrian@TORQEN will be at the Bowl for this if anyone down south is going 🤝
The Hill is a bit of a trek for us unfortunately.

What are you looking to have done?
If it's just odd jobs, any mechanic would be able to work on it, they're pretty simple.
For anything more complex, you can check out: https://www.torqen.uk/content/11-recommended-garages
Horsham Developments for anything mapping wise.

To be honest, that's a huge long shot, especially in your colour code (bearing in mind it won't match anyway) and near London.
We have the V2 style bumpers listed with the carbon fiber lip (we can get it without as well if you prefer):
If you ever do decide to go for a brand new one, do feel free to drop me a message.

Hi Guys,
Little forum exclusive discount, we have a ARC Brazing combo tank in stock for the 370z, happy to offer you guys 10% off in anyone is interested.
If you know about ARC, their parts are very rare and desirable.
Discount code: UKFORUM10

Not sure on the brand, it was on the car when I bought it, I'd assume it's the Tarmac one. Looks to be just some 3M tape.

Hey Guys,

Hi everyone.
I’ve got my heart set on a 350z roadster and preferably want one no later than a 55 plate for the cheaper tax!I’m no mechanic and am aware I’m looking at getting an at least 19 year old car, but want to get the best I can.
I’m not very sure on what price I should be paying.
I’ve seen a couple of 2005 silver ones on Pistonheads with one at £11495 with 8 owners and one from a ‘350 Z member’ with 3 owners just reduced to £5900.
I will search the forum for buying advice as I’m sure you’ve covered this topic many times but would be grateful for some idea of what is a reasonable price for a good one.
I’d also be really grateful for advice on service history.
I know most advertised say full service history but I’ve yet to find one that’s actually had an annual service which is what I think these cars should have?As an example is a 3 year gap ok if the car has only done a few thousand miles over that period?
Sorry I’ve asked a few things here.
I hope that’s ok.
ThanksTim
Personally, I wouldn't care too much about the number of owners, it's a sports car and most change hands pretty fast (people not affording to run them, get bored and other factors). My main concern would be how well it's been looked after, just make sure it's got good service history, check for rust.
A 3 year gap is a bit much in my opinion, even if the cars been sat there and not driven, I would be looking for something that's been serviced yearly at minimum, more if it's actually driven.
Whatever you do, do not pay £11495 for a 350z DE, especially a roadster which tend to be slightly cheaper unless it's supercharged or turbo'd which is a different story.
In my opinion £5,000-£8,000 is a good price range to get a decent 350z DE. It's a buyers market at the moment so you might grab yourself a bargain as I suspect not many are selling.

Hello and welcome!

Buy cheap, buy twice in our experience.
DW, Injector Dynamics or ASNU are what we usually recommend, all are fairly similarly priced.

Hello Guys,
We've got a brand new product released for the 350z.
For those of you with aftermarket steering wheels, as you know, the cruise control and other steering wheel functions are wiped out. To combat this Frogdrive Japan (our very close friends) have designed a sleek looking carbon fiber switch case which allows you to retain all of the steering wheel functions.
PREORDERS - 10% discount for orders before 01/03/2024 - Products will be arriving in UK in April 2024. Once ordered, no discounts, no cancellations as these are special order.

Thanks for your order!
Yeah, unfortunately on certain parts Nissan just use a random number generator
To give you an idea, even on the 370z NISMO which is much newer, the little small red vinyl strips on the mirror are around £90 per side.... for a small strip of vinyl!
