waited for a while to see if owner came back but no sign so left card

you could try the bilstein web site and search using the spec numbers in the ebay listing . this should bring the kit up with a list of the items in it
hope it helps

Hello Ross , nice to have a new 350z owner "up north" with me and big Phill .
my car is also a import for over a year now and had no problems with it .
Ive had virous jap imported cars with no problems at all , i think its comes down to each persons choice.
i went the inport route as they are cheaper than uk models apart from a few minor things .
just go for the best spec/condtion for your buget .

Hi ive used federal tryes before on the rear of my supra turbo , they had good grip in both wet and dry and i had the car up to 170mph (not on public road before any body has a go at me ) and no probs at all .
they dont seem to have a big name in the uk but seem to be a big brand in the usa
ive also used kumo tyres before on a celica and was very impressed with them for the price

Hi ive had 3 supras 2 of them were turbos .
i had no major problems at all with any of them
. the last one i had was a 94 imported model i ran IT for 2 years as a every day car . i only sold it to help pay for the 350z .
As for moding i would look for a stanard car and then carry out the mods your self as there is a lot out there that people had just stuck all sorts of crap extras on and it will kill the car even with them being tough as boots.
For big power outputs then go for single large turbo
For good every day power go for uprated twin turbos

yes theres a large "travalers camp" near by so all the nearby fields are full of horses .

the led rear lights i had fitted were the lexus style lamps . the car was probley running rough to teach me a lesson for fitting them
ive talked to my local main dealer and they have had problems with blown lamps etc causing problems on the other nissan models but none so far on the 350z they have looked after .
-
Hello again , just a quick update .
ive fixed the problem after many hours and trying all sorts
the problem was down to the resistence of the after market led rear lights i had fitted !!!!
the lights were afecting the can bus system on the car ..i only thought to try this after a frend had fitted a led rear brake lamp to hes new bmw motor cycle that also uses a can bus system ,it was afecting the injection control system and making hes bike run very rough .
ive refitted the standard rear lights and she running sweet as a nut now

i hope you didnt stop with your car when you were there , i live a few miles away and i wont even drive my 350 through there

What horses are you on about ?

If you go to your local trade auto paint stockist , they will make up a spray can in the right colour for you .
The sensour system is easy to fit , ive done about 10 so far for freinds and famly members .
I fitted a 8 sensor system to my mother people carrier (4 frount 4 back) the kit also came with a 3" lcd type screen , which show have far in cm away from the object and where in relation to the car it was , is was a bargin i think i only payed £50 of ebay and that included postage .

I do have a none stock intake filter and pipe , ill strip it all back and check/clean it and see if that helps
Thanks

hi every one ,i hope you enjoyed the show as much as i did .
i tried to get down eary on sat for the show and shine but could make it till late on sat so me and the better half just parked up at the hotel and hit the pubs around peterbrough till late hours on sunday .
my car was parked up across on the epr racing stand (jeff had asked me to show it the stand )
sorry if i didnt talk to every one as iam only shy (you wouldnt think so the size of me ) and both of us were a little hung over .
Val iam thinking of which bank to rob to pay for the turbo kit like kevin has on hes Envy z or sell the wife into slavery and go for a forged engine with 4.2 stroker kit
