Hi, does anyone sell or know who sells refurbed starter motors for a 2006 350Z? Thanks

Hi everyone, Although i've really enjoyed rebuilding the engine and documenting it in this forum and really enjoyed the local meets we've had, it's with a very heavy heart i'm selling it. A house move and lack of driving it has forced my hand. I've advertised it Autotrader with a full description and photos for £7,995 if anyone is interested or knows anyone that is. It's fair to say, the engine is as new and the bodywork is pretty solid too. https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202408193052444?advertising-location=at_cars&atmobcid=soc5&fromsra&make=Nissan&model=350 Z&sort=distance&year-to=2024 I'm not on facebook, but if anyone is, I'd really appreciate the link being shared 🙂 Don't worry, once everything is settled down, i'll be back with a new Winter project!!

As long as good quality 5w30 fully synthetic oil for petrol engines, it should be fine IMO.

I eventually got round to fitting my catch can this morning which was simpler then I expected. If anyone has a moment could they look at the pics below and confirm it's plumbed in right?

Could try wrapping some foil around the terminals as a cheap fix

Great day out, thanks Dave for arranging. Attached is a very short YouTube clip of our Z's

Sounds great, see you there 🙂

That's what I was trying to get across, Z's are really great fun to drive 🙂

I local garage just quoted me £2k to do the bonnet & front bumper, £1k of that is just for the paint itself. I just don't see how a few litres of paint can cost £1k

Driving home from work yesterday in the Z i became aware of an RS4 suddenly looming in my rear view mirror. I was driving through a village with a 40 limit at the time which give me time to ponder what to do when the road opens up again: A. Take the moral high ground and do 50 and watch the RS disappear in the distance B. Drop to 3rd and totally floor it I knew that he knew that I knew we would both floor it. Jesus, the Z is seriously fast! It's like instantly away and it's fair to say the RS kept up but not around the bends. A lively drive home that brightened up an otherwise dull commute 🙂

310 ponies and relatively constant torque curve, not bad IMO

Second that, great day out that myself and my son really enjoyed. Thanks for arranging Dave 👍

Has anyone a spare coil pack they take to this meet and sell me? I'm pretty sure one of mine is on the way out

My Z now has 500 miles on it and runs really sweet........ Until this morning where I parked up and restarted the engine. Suddenly it's running rough with a P0305 code. Managed to drive it home and waited for the engine to cool down, Swapped pack 5 and 3 around expecting the error to jump cyl 3, but it's running sweet again. How strange is that?

If you've dextrose fingers and/or long nosed pliers, you may be able to unclip each coil pack clip in turn
