Here is the one I ended up buying: https://www.torqen.uk/nissan/350z/engine/electronics/37563-350z-nissan-oem-battery-bracket.html

It is hard to get the perfect size as the clamp on the JDM cars is really small and the top of a lot of batteries wont fit, If you do go to halfords bring the clamp with you so you can test it. I just bought a UK clamp as that let me use a more nomal battery.

I have a 2003 import with the Bose amp, The car came with no headunit when I bought it but I had a spare pioneer unit I put into it. My issue is from time to time the sound decides to reduce the volume down to zero all by itself, trying to increase the volume will result in it immediately reducing its self again. From what little information I can find I think this is down to the auto piolet microphone under the steering column, it was put there to reduce or increase volume when road noise is present. Anyone know a fix for this?

I viewed most of you videos, I think they are informative. Cheers.

Black and yellow is a great combo.

Great Sunset and it matched the colour of my car so I had to snap it.

I just went yellow into the white hole and black into the red hole and it seems to work.

Mine is that 2003 orange which changes colour depending on cloud cover, sometimes it looks orange, sometimes gold.

My car is a JDM that came with the Bose system with out steering wheel controls, the guy who had it before me removed his head unit but left the adaptor harness which I am sure many of you have, my question is which beside the red and white RCA connectors which are obviously left and right front, which of the other two wires is which? Is the Yellow the Sub and the black the rear speaker? Thanks.

I fixed it, the issue is 100% not there any more. Now it could be a few things so hard to pin point. The last owner could have over filled with oil, It could have been the coil I got from Amazon for 15 pounds was causing an issue or it could have been the cheap Chinese head-unit. I might reinstalled the radio after a week of driving and see if the smell comes back just to confirm.

No nothing under car and last owner had removed the undertray and put it in the boot, I just changed the oil there and changed out a cheapo amazon coil I had installed, I will also disconnect the head unit I installed and will report back if any of these solved the issue.

This is a different issue and is a burning smell, not an oil consumption issue, mine is a 2003.

I have only driven the car 5 times so far, but whenever I stop the car I get a smell coming from the passenger side vent of burning oil/burning plastic. I have seen loads of threads going back years but no real answers even though I assume the people who started the threads eventually got their issues sorted. The oil pressure is normal. The oil seems ok but I will change it tomorrow just incase, coolant if fine. The car is a 03 DE, Automatic transmission so not a clutch issue, Today I drove a little longer than usual and noticed the smell in the cabin while driving, shutting all the vents and turning the AC off helped but I need to get down to the bottom of this. From those unresolved threads I see people suggested the cats being clogged, oil from the dip stick leaking out, Gaskets leaking oil onto the exhaust system and burning. So has anyone that had the strong smell around the passenger side footwell got it sorted and if so how?

Thanks, I will check them out.

Thanks, I will have a look, If I dont find something suitable I will just do it the old fashioned way.
