Awesome
See two cold air intakes does that mean two induction kits can be installed?Yes but they are smaller than the 02-06 intakes (I believe that the 07 actually uses the Micra filter now).
but you could fit two k&N filters if small enough thats great. Why does it have two airintakes sorry before people start stoning me
I actually have two K&N's already (it's what Stillen use), and it's because they have changed 80% of the engine and decided on dual intakes now (completely different plenum etc).

Have a chat to Dave @ Marshalls.

Only place I really had any hating aimed at the last Z was a Maccy D's car park on the A127 just before Basildon, car full of boys didn't like it and threw their pickle on the car.
i hope you smacked their bottoms.................
Unfortunately I didn't catch them doing it. It was a case of me going into Maccy's, having a gut feeling and going outside, I walked around the car and saw the passenger side covered in pickle.

That is sooooo yummy. Assume you are not a shy, retiring type then....
Yeah, I wanted a nice inconspicuous car, something that drifts into blandness

crikey... just checked on DVLA and they have my perfect initial + correct year + ZED for sale....
so.. so.. tempted !
go for it - you only live once
Agreed

CongratZ on the Solar Orange. In the UK, is that what's called a GT 350??
You get used to the extra attention driving an orange car. Lol.
Over here they called it Temper Orange although I do prefer Solar Orange.
It's a 350z with the GT pack, over here we only have two styles, GT or Non-GT.

Very nice Please try and keep this one in one piece.
Git, that's all I have had from everyone (wife, best mate, work colleagues, dealer etc)

Not in a month of Sundays, I made the mistake of buying an ex demo R1, lovely bike but rough as nails, not good for a machine that had 2.5k on it when I got it.
The problem I feel is that you just don't know what's been done to the car, in my opinion you're more likely to get a well looked after car from someone who is selling privately than an ex demo car.

£55 for a pair! Are they made of platinum?
I'm no skinflint by any means but this seems excessive for what basically is a badge made of cheap plastic!
Is there any Japanese sites I can order from and maybe cheaper? I have someone at work who is Japanese so they would translate the page for me.
£55 for the pair is cheap, Mike@MJP charges more (£47.95 each)
TBH BigPhil is a great trader and one of the cheapest, I doubt you will find it cheaper and I also doubt that the original ones are that much cheaper.

You sir are indeed a 1st class git
I am trying to choose between Temper & Black (which is bad enough I guess) and then you go and take piccy's of one with all the extra kit I would like (but not for 5 grand).
It looks awesome indeed and for some reason the front spoiler doesn't look like a speed bump magnet compared to some other nismo kitted cars - perhaps just the camera viewpoint.
Glad to be of assistance
Go for the black

Ouch, my retinas!
Yeah I was after something a little inconspicuous, that melts into the background
-
Superb
Have you changed the tyres already or are my eyes decieving me?
It has Toyo's on it.

Looking
All you need now is a stubby
Stubby and Z Badges already replaced.

Thanks mate but charging £30 is taking liberties in my book
Charging £30 for what is taking liberties?

Or Bigphil.

Here she is

Stillen True Duel and no pop charger this time.
Or two chargers
. Tempted to get them myself just to hear what kind of noise she'd make but as there's no performance gains I think I'd feel let down.Guy
I have the Stillen ones myself, last year when I got these guys to fit the zorst they also tried to fit the charger, unfortunately the venturi ring just didn't fit. Since then I haven't really been too keen on them (waited for months for the parts and then they were wrong).

There's no bluetooth in the Z as standard. You must first have the integrated phone kit which I believe is stock on the GT in England. Then the bluetooth adaptor is placed in the phone cradle.
Over here I've discovered we get everything the GT gets except the phone kit. I do find it strange that I have the phone antenna but not the cradle. Bit annoyed. At least I pulled the adaptor out of my old Z before handing it over.
Ahh, well over here it looks like the bluetooth adapter is standard across the board.

And can I get a quote to get an exhaust fitted to my car again please (you guys did the Nismo on the Chilli Red for me last year).
Stillen True Duel and no pop charger this time.

Just like the integrated phone. I thought it was there and not an option as the car has the steering controls and the antenna above the windscreen.
Are you saying that the 07 doesn't come with the integrated Bluetooth kit?

Im delimited, but im in no position to try and find out. . .the island i live on has a speed limit of 35mph. . .
I was going to say Guernsey and then saw your location. TBH I would be scared of driving the Z over there, it's bloody mad. Some lovely roads mind you, Val De Zere??? up by the brewery, sort of heading towards Soldiers Bay area must be nice.
I love the island and would love to see how much Herm has changed actually. (I was born there, went to Vauvert school when I was really young).
As promised..

Front bumper was done by the place in Sunderland, rear parking sensors by Marshalls, tbh I haven't seen any issue with them.
One thing I did notice with the paint is the difficulty there is in getting panels to fully match up, don't get me wrong the kit looks amazing but Orange in general is a poor colour to blend in cleanly.
I was speaking with Tom from Paintshield who said that his two orange cars (Boxster and Focus ST) had issues with panels not matching 100%, it kind of depends where you're standing and looking.
