Gunmetal body over black rims - perfect combination.

Interesting - Despite what's written above, when I spoke to T/S about HFCs a while back I was told that they would need to be hot prior to the MOT emissions test. Mine are currently standard, but having researched the subject and the numerous brand options, plus receiving professional advice from my Indie, I'm going down the Cobra route.

Does this potentially affect 370Zs of all ages?

Thanks Alex, worth a punt I think. Just ordered some from Slim's Detailing.

I usually use a minimal amount of white spirit, followed by a thorough wash after I've got the stuff off. However, that's been for 'regular' alloys, not diamond cut lacquered ones. All four of my Rays on my Nismo has this cack, so what's the best and safest thing to use? Cheers!

Good news, post a few photos when you're ready.

Maybe Fido would enjoy seeing all the Zeds?! 🐶

My E39 540 Sport at Dunsfold last year.

Welcome along, great looking Z. The meeting at the Ace was, well, Ace! Get along next year...

Is this the position on the inner sills, front and rear, that each have two "V" cut outs? Thanks.

Welcome along, pleased to hear you're sorted.

Firstly, a big thanks to Martin for organising this meet - I know from experience that car club stuff (organising events, writing articles for the monthly mag etc) can be a time consuming and sometimes thankless task. I really enjoyed seeing so many Zs together in one place - since taking delivery of my Nismo back in February I'd only seen one other Z on the road before yesterday. A friendly bunch too, had a few good chats! I certainly hope to be able to attend other meets as and when they are arranged. The trip up from Gatwick was a massive pain, so for the way back we cut down to Kew Bridge and out to the M3/M25 that way - nowhere near as bad as the way up via M25/M40/A40. Back home, the trip computer showed that it had taken nearly three and a half hours to do 101 miles 😒. However, I was pleasantly surprised to see the average MPG was 29, compared to my usual 20 when pottering around locally. Anyway, a few of my photos from yesterday.

Welcome along, saw your Z at Ace yesterday. Stunning looking car and loved the colour - truly unique! One of my photos from yesterday. Sorry, you must have loads similar!

Welcome along. Must say those wheels really do suit the car.

Subject to any known issues on the morning, is the intended route going to be M25/M40/A40?

I was actually not going to leave home near Gatwick until 11:00, getting to the Ace around 12:30 ish. However, I'm certainly up for a group convoy so will endeavour to be at Cobham by 10:00. If not, see you there. Just note, I'm not very familiar with Cobham Services but will try to find you going by the location description from Martin.

No, I had no clue, but I know now. Extreme Signs did a perfect job and Copthorne is just 15 mins from me. Is that a red roof and bonnet on your old Z? That did cross my mind but I thought I'd test the colour first.

there is something in that you know. Experienced that myself a few times...

This might be a bit Marmite and split opinion. Nismo 'Burgundy' roof wrap at Extreme Signs in Copthorne, Surrey, today. Superb job and very pleased with the new look. They also replaced the bright red mirror stripes (which matches nothing else on the car) with the same material.

I would normally change wheels on any "hobby/interest" car of mine, just to be individual (ish) but not in the case of my V2 Nismo. I've a couple of cosmetic mods to do this month (red roof wrap and Z burger badges) but that's it really. Oh, I had the rear screen tinted a couple of weeks back as well. Less than six months ago when I was looking for something different, I'd never even seen, let alone heard of, a 370Z Nismo. It struck me a something pretty much perfect straight out of the box, particularly the wheel style. Handy really as that's probably saved me a whole heap of money changing them!

Welcome along, that looks very nice.
