DeeJayDready Posted January 24, 2017 Posted January 24, 2017 (edited) Hello my fellow Zedders, I'm new to the forum but have read plenty on here over the last few months which has proved helpful. Just here to introduce myself... I'm a Belfast (N.Ireland) based owner of an '07 Nissan 350Z 'NISMO edition' (but not a '350Z NISMO'...). So far I've done a few bits and pieces: - Driver-side wishbone 'banana arm' had to be replaced when I bought it (knocking sound from the faulty bushing) - OEM Tonneau Cover installed - Aluminium Vent Trims fitted (Thanks Asad!) - Replacement spare key ordered from Nissan (ouch £££) Still to do: - Hazard Warning Lights not working (but managed to pass the MOT last week ok without them) - Fit OEM clear front reflectors - Replace cracked passenger-side sun-visor mirror - Refurbish wheels (Spring or after) - Investigate Bluetooth phone call issues.

KyleR Posted January 25, 2017 Posted January 25, 2017 Welcome to the forum mate, good to see another member from over here I seen this car for sale I think, it's a nice motor, however, there is no such thing as a Nismo Edition, sorry. It does however have a nice set of Nismo LMGT4 wheels, though Quote
Aashenfox Posted January 25, 2017 Posted January 25, 2017 Welcome! How much did they want for the replacement key out of curiosity? Quote
DeeJayDready Posted January 25, 2017 Author Posted January 25, 2017 Welcome! How much did they want for the replacement key out of curiosity? They (Charles Hurst Nissan) charged £200 all-in in the end; which was actually slightly less than they said it would be on the phone, and they also did a 29-point traffic-light style check on the car into the bargain. The key itself is expensive for them to order. They then have to cut it to match, and reprogram the two keys and the car all to the same frequency (which apparently involved removing part of the underside of the drivers dash). Then add VAT. 1 Quote

Yours is a GT with a set of Nismo LMGT4 wheels and some stickers. Edited January 25, 2017 by KyleR Quote
DeeJayDready Posted January 25, 2017 Author Posted January 25, 2017 Fair enough. I just get the impression that all this was done at the point of original sale, rather than afterwards. Though can't be certain of course. Other than the standard GT Pack, it seems to have 19" Nismo LMGT4 wheels, Nismo exhaust system, Nismo gear knob, Nismo bonnet decal, Nismo boot badge, aluminium entry guards, tinted rear windows,and the top of the rear strut & interior door handles are a carbon fibre style, rather than the original colour. It has rear parking sensors too, but I presume that most of the later models had this. And a Bluetooth adapter, which I have yet to conquer. Quote
