  1. Hi folks, I found a split in my exhaust just before the back box (see pics). I've been toying with getting an aftermarket exhaust but never been too fussed. As a side note, I expected there to be a flange where that split is but I guess I got confused. I'm now weighing up the options, since I'm not sure a weld would hold too nicely on that. Second hand OEM exhausts I suppose are a good option but I was looking at these Megan Racing y-pipe back options on Torquen: https://www.torqen.uk/nissan/350z/exhausts/exhaust-systems/29326-350z-megan-racing-black-series-y-pipe-back-exhaust-system-mr-cbs-350z-oeb.html https://www.torqen.uk/nissan/350z/exhausts/exhaust-systems/29328-350z-megan-racing-mr-cbs-350z-srt-stainless-tip-y-pipe-back-exhaust-system-mr-cbs-350z-srt.html https://www.torqen.uk/nissan/350z/exhausts/exhaust-systems/29329-350z-megan-racing-mr-cbs-350z-vo-350z-burnt-roll-tip-exhaust-system-mr-cbs-350z-vo.html They all look to be the same system inside to me? What's the deal with the black edition? Might be a bit too hot I suppose, in which case I'd got the middle price option. Has anybody had any experience with these systems? I don't want to go any quieter than stock. I'm aware you get what you pay for, but I don't need performance - just something that isn't going to be worse than the OEM version!
  2. Anyone else braving the campsite for this? Thinking I might regret that after last night's temperatures.

  4. In fairness, I had to sit very lightly on the throttle but I averaged 33mpg at about 70/75! Was quite surprised actually.
  5. GTR plate to be precise! Sadly, the dealer changed from a family one to a western and I didn't get a front ate at the time so they're now mis-matched 🙃
  6. Still looking alright after 450 miles of dusty motorway - and as a bonus I got the whole thing done with a quarter tank to go!

  8. Managed to get some remarkably sunny snaps in for January in Scotland
  9. Got spotted by Tartan Tarmac at Caffeine and Machine, wish I could take photos as nice!
  10. 700/1400 miles in to my trip back home (including driving while here and back again), gave her a half way wash today.
  11. Hi and welcome! I just had the same problem as you. We tried master first, it was grubby so honed it out but no fix. Tried the hose next and no joy, but a new csc made it feel like a brand new car. If you need to get the clutch working to get it somewhere, I found if it fails while driving quickly but finely pumping the pedal at the start of any resistance helps get some fluid back to the correct side of the cylinder, eventually building pressure.
  12. Confirmed as the csc today so it'll be getting a clutch and if I can convince my dad it's worth it a flywheel, needs banana arms too. Plenty time though, probably going to have to leave it at home in Scotland till September. Enterprise it is for the journey home 🙃
  13. I did yes, and I knew the clutch was on its way so was anticipating it eventually. The oil pressure is good when driving as far as I can see when I look, sits at about 60ish driving normally, lowest it goes is 45ish when I'm cruising and very light on throttle at 60mph in 5th, sits about 10 to 15 when warm at idle. I'll ask them to check it that's a good point though. I knew these weren't cheap to maintain when I started looking, and as much as it sucks I intend to have the car a long time so am prepared to do what it needs.
  14. Eye watering but I knew it was needing dome eventually.. just didn't expect it to be within the first 2 weeks of owning it!
