Great job - as I was trawling through your pics I was thinking you must have spent another day taking them and getting them uploaded for posting here - but well worth it

Did you not forget that i am the first person to be officially slapped? Note to Mike and Beavis, it bloody hurts But you enjoyed it, eh

But as I indicated in my previous post the other driver may well say it was Nixy who pulled over and then did not stop (who I hasten to add I have no doubt was utterly blameless, before I get a ) . Without a witness what will the police do? Just one of those things that we all get upset about, like the hit and run barstewards, but then getting all stressed out trying in vain to put a wrong right, and you can even end up being the accused! Best left alone IMHO.

I always give the car a soaking with a hose on a soft spray then a more more focused stream to remove all the loose particles. When I soap the car (Megs Gold Class in warm water) I initially just gently cover the area and then more vigorously use the mitt with a further soapy water to remove the more stubborn marks/flies. The main thing I have learnt since being on this forum is to ensure the ZED has a good wax covering, and regularly topped up, which certainly helps to stop muck adhering. Using the Super Natural wax now - quite hard to put on but it does the trick and lasts well which helps to off-set its intial high cost

As much as I hate this sort of thing, our resident solicitor Digsy is right - highly unlikely anything will be done and at the end of the day it will the 'cows' word against yours, if no other witness June had the wing mirror on her Jazz busted by a passing Sainsbury's delivery van. To his credit the driver stopped and details exchanged although he did not admit liability but experience told me, after visiting the store concerned to find that the incident would be reported to their insurers, that although there was no damage to the van the best this would end up would be on a knock for knock basis once it got in insurers hands. Not worth having a 'claim' recorded and agreed with the store we would not pursue and nor would they and just put my hand in my pocket for the £240 replacement wing mirror. Less ongoing aggro all round and it was soon forgotten - which I would said might apply in your case Nixy?

Not exactly sure what item you are referring to but this link may help? http://liljerk.morpheus.net/350Z/rear_speakers/ Otherwise, a search in the guides section might produce what you are looking for

Better still - change the exhaust - first and most essential mod for a 370

You are not far from Stew who has been known to to do the odd detailing or I'm sure he would point you point in the right direction - I bet he could get near-on a nought knocked off that £1.5k for a decent exterior detail

Welcome to the forum Where are you based - is it in Denmark? And we would like to see some pics of your pride and joy

Thread note Please do not post up your wheel offers for sale here, unless your for sale ad has been approved and you can then add a link.

All credit to you for seeking out the best way to clean/protect your car but I would honestly say that as you are saying you are not well experienced in cleaning methods and you can see scratches on your 2-year old purchase IMO I consider that getting a professional detailer in to get the car as perfect as possible would be a very sound investment. There are some good detailers out there and some advertise on here - (see the traders section) When my previous black 350 was about a year old and had picked up swirls etc I got a detailer to work his magic and learnt from him about the best way of keeping the ZED looking good after he had got the UK350ZED looking spot on as well as tips from those on here including traders who have posted how they did their work. Nissan paint quality is not good and can be very thin in places so it is important that if you are going to attempt removing scratches/swirls you don't end up with much of the paint removed Heres a link to the detailing of UK350ZED viewtopic.php?f=22&t=13513&hilit=detailing

Good to see you are getting the measure of the Scoobys a bit more now although their superior grip of the line must be frustrating. Also the rear cameras clearly show the Zeds extra grunt compared to the Hondas, but they sure do close up in the twisty bits whereas there seems little in it comapred to the scoobys? So if the change of direction/grip through the slow corners could be improved that seems to be the answer to those in front and behind - guess that is where a fancy diff would come in very handy?

You got the car in February 2009 and told us in May 2009 the car had done 60k miles and it had the Zito wheels on then. You have not mentioned how many miles you have done since and seem to be saying you have not changed the tyres yet you say they are in pretty good nick - suggesting you have not used the car much and, shall we say, been gentle with the power I would suggest you check the basics first - how much tread have you actually got left and is there even wear across the tread. Make sure the tyre pressures are 35psi, when cold. Normally for 19" wheels, 245 at the front and 275 at the rear with the profiles you have are used, but the rather unique offset the Zito wheels (and rim width?) may dictate something else is warranted. But I have little doubt that your TC problems are down to the tyre/wheel combination and tyre wear over an 18 month period is the root cause of your TC issues.

And if the tyres are well worn that combination could well be the very reason why you feel the TC is not working.

Just a reminder to those asking questions in for sale threads that if you do not see your post when first submitted it is because the Mods have to approve it before it will appear on the thread, so resubmitting the same question again only adds to our workload

I disagree. Having had a Nismo on my previous 350 the sound is awesome in comparison to the stock system when you give it the beans as anyone who follows a nimso equipped ZED will testify. But superb when motorway cruising or arriving home late so as not to wake the other 'alf And to suggest it looks like the stock pressed metal system when the Nismo rear box is s/s and designed to sit lower to be more on display, is a little off the mark, I would suggest And with high-flo cats it is even more awesome. But I admit to not having seen/heard a Remus so my jury is out on that one

Welcome to the forum Unfortunately you are not the first to have a difficulty in getting a test drive. Have you tried getting a drive in a used 370? See this link to see if anything is near enough http://www.nissanusedcars.co.uk/richexperience# Good luck, but if you have any specific queries there are a quite few 370 owners on the forum now and we should be able to help out

Guess if I'm going to to do the rears will need to do the fronts too, so glad you are showing the way Chris
