jwwbowe Posted June 12, 2016 Posted June 12, 2016 (edited) Hi All, Just bought a 370Z GT and thought I had better join the forum! It’s a 64 reg, in Midnight Blue with 6k on the clock, I’ve never had a car this new and I keep making excuses to take it for a drive! I have come from an E46 M3 and while it was a great car the 370Z feels a lot more special. I had a S2000 before the M3 which was also a great bit of kit but I think the Z might just pip it. I did test drive a new facelift Nismo, but I would have struggled to justify it and I think for the money the draw of a GTR or a V8 Vantage would have been too much. Once the manufacture warrantee is out I am going to be looking at upgrading the induction and exhaust as my one criticism is it could be a bit louder. Any suggestions? I am looking at a Sea Sucker to put the bike on it, has anyone had any experience with this kind of bike rack on a Z? Based on the south coast, any local meets going on this summer? Thanks, Josh Edited June 12, 2016 by jwwbowe 1 Quote
Humpy Posted June 12, 2016 Posted June 12, 2016 Is it just me or have I not seen this colour on a 370z before. Looks beautiful and welcome to the forum. Keep an eye out on the meets section for this area, got a great bunch of people down this way. Hello from Winchester Plenty of choice with exhausts for the 370z and first thing to upgrade! Quote

Bike rack related thread for you here: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/88535-bike-rack/ Sea sucker thread here albeit a for sale advert & a 350Z too but it won't be much different used on a 370Z: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/102680-seasucker-talon-bike-rack-amazing-piece-of-kit/ 1 Quote

ilogikal1 Posted June 12, 2016 Posted June 12, 2016 Wlecome. Is it just me or have I not seen this colour on a 370z before. Looks beautiful and welcome to the forum. Not just you! Really suits the '70 though. I approve of this purchase. Quote
MarkSt Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 Welcome, that is a lovely colour on a 370, nice find!! I've just fitted an Invidia Gemini to my 350, gorgeous sound, a deeper tone but not too loud and not at all raspy, if that's your thing, I would imagine it would sound very similar on a 370.

martybhoy Posted June 13, 2016 Posted June 13, 2016 welcome and nice zed in a really classy colour Quote
jwwbowe Posted September 18, 2024 Author Posted September 18, 2024 Bit of a thread revive, I sold the car back in 2017 with about 10k on the clock, completely standard with no mods, it’s now back up for sale with 53k. Amazing how the market has changed, I recall purchasing it with 6k mileage still with a year of manufactures warranty for £20k something in that region, yet here it is 7yrs later with 53k and some mods and it’s only £4k less! World has gone nuts since 2020 but 370z residuals certainly aren’t bad. Would love to put it back to OEM maybe keeping the exhaust but it’s not the right time for me. Glad to see RJ64HGL lives and hasn’t been written off though, great fun car in an awesome colour. https://www.autotrader.co.uk/car-details/202407312359655?sort=relevance&advertising-location=at_cars&colour=Blue&make=Nissan&model=370 Z&postcode=Po119su&fromsra Quote
