D350z

Yes, that one is on my radar too. But as my current Z is a JDM they won't touch it as a part ex so I've just listed it for private sale: http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/986134.htm I'm now in a race to raise the 8K needed to make the purchase of the Maidstone car. I'm so excited about getting a convertible Z I just hope my 'entry level' offering gets another newbie into Z ownership. Cheers Damien.

I think they might, but it is a good policy so I have no hard feelings.

I called J.S.Holmes this morning and it is due to go back to Nissan on Tuesday. They have had it on their forecourt for a month and not sold it at that price so Nissan want it back. It was probably a press car and is still owned by Nissan. I expect it will end up at another dealer next weekend. They wouldn't take my JDM on part Ex (Nissan franchise dealer policy) so I will have to sell privately. I can't list my car here as I've not got 50 posts on this forum yet as I was on the 'other' forum. I've now migrated here because it is better and free. So I'll put it on Pistonheads this afternoon. Cheers, Damien.

Welcome! I'm running an Alpine head unit in my 02 JDM Azure 350Z with full remote control of my iPod in the cubby behind the handbrake. I've used a module box to connect the original steering wheel controls to the Alpine head unit and another module box to interface the Alpine to the Bose amps. I still use the Bose sub and amps. I have fitted new speakers units in the doors and rear using the original mounts. The improvement in sound over the original Bose system has been amazing. I wrote up the whole process with pictures and spec on the 'other' forum but I migrated to this forum as it is free and better. My car will be for sale for 8.5k later this weekend. If you want a UK spec car you will need from 10k upwards. Cheers, Damien.

Hi Guys, I've loved my Azure JDM so much I want another Z. I will have to sell my beloved Z and I'll probably just get £8k for her with 65k miles on the clock I have been saving a bit and I fancy a rag top. ex demo 07, 57 or 08 or new import considered. My second favorite colour is white but I'm liking the new blue with the light grey or tan leather seats. My budget is 18 - 24k. I would have considered the 270z (with a bit of a wait and finance needed) but I prefer the look of the 350z. Cheers, Damien.

91W rating is perfect for a Z that is limited to 155mph as a 91W rating is good for 168 mph. I don't think I'm going to run out of tyre rating on the M5 somehow. But I now have my eyes on the Falkens as they are supposedly a lot quieter, have great grip and available fitted for under £400 a set of 4.

I'll give you £25 via PayPal right now plus courier. Cheers, Damien.

Ooh that's still more than I was expecting considering they are £140 delivered from the tyre depot on ebay: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... 43fee492cb

Thanks guys

I'm not sure because I don't know what to ask for. - Yet

Advice from the experts needed please. Okay here's the low down. I've had a 2002 JDM with 17" rims for nearly 2 years and I've had nearly 30,000 miles from a set of Pirelli P zero asymmetric tyres that have performed well with no surprises. I have just bought a set of GT4 style (original Nissan) refurbished rims from Alex on this forum. What tyre sizes should I go for? I think I might get some Mitchelin Pilot Sports from Costco but I'm open to suggestions. I've read about 040 instead of 045 but no one categorically states which ones are better. I'm coming from 225 - 50 ZR 17 front and 235 - 50 ZR 17 rear. Rolling radius calculations are not my strong point. I'm assuming no spacers will be needed and it'll be a case of balance fit and go. Help and offers of supply are welcome. Thanks, Damien.

Alex, can I have your number? I've PM'd but I can't find any contact details for you. Cheers, Damien.

Yep I'll opt for Alex's set. I'll ring in the morning with credit card etc. Thanks for your help guys. Damien.

Great news Alex. What tyres do you recommend for them? Is a set 4 or 5? Are they 18" or 19" or is there a choice of size? Lots of questions I know but I want to make the right choice. Damien.

I would like a set of these GT4? wheels for my Azure 350z JDM. Does anyone know where I can get a set? All help appreciated.[/img]

CD version and DVD version are worlds apart. Europe is included on DVD version map and it is current. DVD version is worth having and CD is not. I have the CD version on my Xtrail and I use a Navman instead because the CD version is crap! Just make sure it will take UK post codes!
