  1. Moved here as you are part of MeisterR
  2. Here is the procedure (if you have not already got it) http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/110-guide-ecu-reset/
  3. Sounds to good to be true (as they say).................but perhaps on this occasion it is. Very, very few Nissan dealers have bodyshops in-house - it just gets contracted out to an 'approved' bodyshop so that the Nissan warranty is not in question, but given the age of your car and if it were me I wouldn't be worried about that - more important is to ensure the work is done to a standard acceptable to you.
  4. A very nice example indeed and excellent introduction. I see you have the 'facelift' (2006+ models) bi-xenon projector headlamps along with many other tasteful mods. Hope you did not run over your phone though :wink:
  5. The GT4 wheels are not as "rare" as the seller suggests - they were OEM in other countries and seen on imports here and used on the last batch of 350's that hit Irish shores - as we saw several that had been imported at Dealers in the UK.
  6. 30? ..........and the rest! Either that or I'm getting older faster Have a good one Stew.
  7. Hope your mate spotted it was not a 370 he was servicing........
  8. IMO I think you would be wise to involve the insurance and get a good repairer to check out the extent of the damage - these things invairably turn out to cost a whole lot more than first thought and usually the 'culprit' will not be prepared for many hundreds the repair is likely to cost.
  9. First thing to try is to remove the battery leads, clean up the terminals and the clamps with emery and vaseline those items before reassembly. When you remove the earth lead check it is sound, including the connection to the chassis. Could be the battery internals are cracked, or lacking distilled water, the latter you should be able to check. Or the battery is simply on its last legs
  10. Don't I know it - whenever I'm searching the web for important things like car parts, bloody pop-ups for handbags, clothes etc are ruining my browsing experience :lol:
  11. Glad the window fix worked - well done ThriftyFifty Tyre scrub - as others are saying this is normal on the 370 - a combination of the car's suspension geometry and 'summer tyres' supplied (Bridgestones, no doubt?) where the sidewalls remain stiffer in cold weather. The scrubbing is normally only on full (or near ) lock. Clutch issue - now that does not sound normal and you need to get that checked by a NISSAN HPC centre - but I guess you have been using Glyn Hopkins? Sorry, I do not know another near to you. I use one in Kent (Motorline - Tunbridge Wells) who have been very good. But there are other good ones around - best to post up another thread with the specific question unless another 370 owner sees this thread.
  12. Sounding the death knell for many shopping centres and in turn many Council services, as High Street business is a big funding source for them. Remember that 75% of your Council Tax goes to the Chancellor who decides each year what share each Council gets back and if that is to prop up services Council's can no longer afford because the High Street and associated income has dryed up................ http://www.which.co.uk/money/tax/guides/council-tax/understanding-council-tax/ So, unless legislative action is taken very promptly our +1's will be doing all their retail therapy from the telly etc Thought: An immediate change could be brought about by changing VAT. Zero or very low VAT if bought by personal shoppers, compensated by raising VAT for online purchases. Might seem drastic and potential loopholes would need to be addressed, otherwise high streets will only go one way Oh, and once the internet companies have all the business - surprise, surprise the big ones kill/buy off the smaller ones monopoly rules and prices rise. Meaning you and I are paying through the nose again. Please tell me I am talking out of my posterior
  13. "Shall we go and put some lippy on now darling"
  14. I'm sure it can........at a price You can try asking R35LEE as I believe he would know, just hope he gets back to you as he does er.... tend to disappear from here for periods.
  15. Adding to Alexs' suggestions...... Has use of the handbrake operation changed - in 1st class condition it has never been the greatest item on the ZEDs but I was just wondering if one of the return/holding springs has broken.
  16. http://www.350z-uk.c..._40#entry987985 Yeah, it came about from my question whether flyboy's mod for the 350's could be adapted for the 370 but another 370 owner could get lucky :wink:
  17. I'll put a link up in the 370 section to your offer
  18. And door and mirror and wheel...... New pic added to first post So its no longer a build thread but a rebuild one
  19. I think that is fair enough - similar to those that post links to their sales on Ebay. If you provide me a link to the company who are doing the seeling I'll add into your post above - in the meantime the thread will be locked.
