type g

Hi i have 63.5mm o/d 1.5mm wall stainless steel tube in stock, if you want some PM me an address & i can ship tonight.

all FOC

Hey B16REE,

If you want a dremmel-free alternative see below:

Firstly this is the light i am working with:

you will need to chop the wires on the rear of the light after the connector (see below):

following that, change the light (shown disconnected) to a red bulb and connect the wires from the bulb to the ones powering your existing foglight.

Failing that you could buy a UK cluster with bulbs (from Nissan for approx £60) and do exactly the same! (which is what i've done)

I think this car was on ebay nov 29 2008

possible seller was tammy not tommy

http://myworld.ebay.co.uk/tammy_xx

title of the post was (Is this ad for real ) no pics

Thanks guys

for reminding me of that day,

paint and match was by far the easy bit,

all you need is the paint code L40 and any spray shop can mix it

matching is down to the sprayer/bodyshop skill.

for pro advice you may phone paul coombs of THAME crash repair centre they did the repair & will remember it well. 01844 212798

good luck with your purchase

ps zeds look good in all colours.

Thanks everyone for a fantastic weekend

is this the pic you want James?:

Nice one mike how much is a oneway ticket for the wife.

Hi martin

as this is close by, we will be there on Saturday 9th

Look forward to seeing you then

Rick

Hi nick

good spot yes it was the love of my life,

being driven to or from work by the wife. :

hi stew Interlagos Fire yes with karen at wheel we hope to make the hoon this year with the zed this time!

That colour is far too common...

must do more mods, good to see us interlagos fire owners are so good looking

*ALSO*

there is a hairline crack in one of my arch mouldings/extensions so the bodyshop are trying to source one from the US as they are available for the latest US Nisimo version. if they are successful then i'll get the details for you guys

Hey Ricky - good to see the car is back

 

We both love that colour - hmm wonder how much a respray costs? my white beetle would look like in that colour - whats the paint code for it?

 

You did some excellent driving in the Civic on the Hoon matey - hope your going to the next one and also the Wales run?

Better get my camera ready to take some more pics of it! (the Zed that is!)

Code is L40 mate i've still got 1L if you want to try your more than welcome. (may need watering down)

Nice to see a decent repair job!

 

How are those arch lips done??

plastic mouldings, approx 1.5-2mm thick. rivited & glued to wings

pics below

also sarnie they are fitted by the dealer

the full type G kit consists of:

1, Flared wheel arches

2, Rare Rays

3, Special colour interior

The car is supplied as a standard ST JDM = GT UK version. without cruise, to the dealer. and they fit the above parts to make it into the type G.

 

 

One of 2 in the UK. :-)

 

Ricky you should have ordered your paint from Finishmaster in the States. I bought a half coke can sized ammount for just under £200 so I could paint my spoiler and had a touch up pen for any stone chips.

Hi Greg - ordering paint from there sounds a bit expensive, the paint is available from Morelli's UK @ £37.94 per litre

Pics

hope that helps,

Ricky

Thanks for comments, good to be back!

hopefully up for a weekend in Bala next year & a week in Scotland, time and funds permitting.

thanks again,

Ricky

Looks really good mate, what wheels are they your running?

 

Is that a std Z colour, looks fantastic!

"The Fairlady Z version ST type G features are 19-inches rear tires (F 245-40R18, R 265-35R19), front & rear fender moldings (+25mm), RAYS alloy wheels, and exclusive interior leather color. "

Big Phil has priced these for someone else before (they are VERY expensive)

Looks great! Paint match OK?

This is one of the reasons for the delay as a special tinter was required, but the match is excellent - well worth the wait

For those of you that didn't get to see the G at the Hoon & had to put up with us in the Civic, this is the damage that happened on the way. Which unfortunately meant the car was out of action for a little while

Picked up on friday, after a long time waiting and a few modifications the Z is back

Extras are:

Nismo Style V2 Spoiler

Clear front reflectors

Z badges

Hope you like it!

Ricky

Hi guys,

had a great weekend (after such a sh1t start!) thanks to Stew Jayne and the rest of the team for a great drive and barbeque.

On the subject of next years vehicle, to give you datsun boys a chance i will be bringing my brothers honda jazz!!, Only joking, hopefully my zed with maybe a few additions to it.

Must say my fuel economy was good, up until the run to Kinlochewe, where keeping up with you guys took it down to 29mpg leaving me just enough fuel to make it back to my digs!

Hi guys

we had to return home for new car because an hgv took the nose off the z

at a service station on the m6 we are both fine & will be on the road with in the hour z is in the body shop please start a list of mods for them to do while she's in.

sorry no type g this year more of seeing nessie, unless PURE will turn up.

Actually Ricky, are your details still the same from wales as I have your number.

 

Look forward to seeing you again buddie!

yeah my contact details haven't changed since wales mate.

should see you friday/sat nite as im also staying at Glenmoriston Manse

last to start, might be first to finish again!

Hey, thanks to the meet organisers! especially Beavis

Great to meet you all. glad people like the Type G

just to set it straight the paint is Interlagos Fire

http://www.350z-tech.com/zwiki/Fairlady ... _ST_Type_G

Looking at the pics in his 'welcome' message posts at the tail end of last year the car had a standard square JDM surround on.

For JDM plates try www.craigsplates.com

the front number plate surround is standard the bottom of the plate used to hang until i got the smaller plate (G 7YPE)

The rear is standard JDM also. just all characters on one line

ok cool ill apply the gloss before i wax next time. will look into that other wax, thanks! umm the water remover thing.... what would you suggest instead? its a bril tool at quickly removing water and avoiding water marks!

sounds cool yea the lights are bril so take it they are the new ones (pretty sure)

thanks for the real paint name "brickyuard"

dont worry the two bucket method is always used! and yea the megs wash mitts are bril!

havent seen another of the same colour apart from someone with pics in the US (had a kit prob nismo due to it winning some awards)

as far as price. it was a bril buy may reveal cost later

and reply to before.... whats P21S??? never heard of it? it for detailing?

thanks for all the positive replies

it was registered in december 2005 and released in 2006 thas why its got a 55 plate

so whats different about my interior that makes it obvious its an 06??

also my son does all the washing/cleaning and detailing with me. we use a ton of different stuff. that day we used:

auto glym shampoo

some auto glym water squiji thing to get the water off

megs speed detailer with the clay bar

megs wax (some high class one i think)

auto glym gloss

simonz window cleaner

and lastly for the black parts (baseplates) some mix a mate gave me with silicon

not sure what the name of the colour is but the dvla listed it as brown

more comments welcome

thanks, yea dont see many this colour in the uk

not a fan of spoliers but maybe a lip if i can find someone to mix the paint colour!!

thanks for the welcome posts

hey, after using the site to find out how to change the rear (fog) light, only thought it'd be polite to introduce myself. I had this imported June 07, its on a 55 plate.

the exterior:

the inside:
