So here goes, I bought my 2005 55 plate 350Z Roadster in March 2016. But didn't get to pick her up until April 23rd! Bloody jct17 cars! Anyway she had to have a new roof on before I could pick her up it only took a month...

I loved her the way she was, I wasn't going to change a thing. Then I saw a post from tarmacsportz for an Rdx stubby Ariel. That's how it started I guess! 😉

Then we went to the peaks meet organised by MrsNiki. There we met some wonderful people... this is where zeditis really kicked off as I left there with a list...

 

Wheel spacers 25mm and 20mm, ðŸ‘

Tein springs, ðŸ‘

Plenum spacer, ðŸ‘

LED rear lights, ðŸ‘

Sports exhaust, ðŸ‘

Gas bonnet struts, ðŸ‘

G35 rear spats, ðŸ‘

Zunsport grill, ðŸ‘

Front splitter, ðŸ‘

Side steps or skirts, ðŸ‘

 

Over the next few months I started working on it. 1st came some springs and spacers thanks tarmacsportz 🙂

 

Before,

Then came the plenum spacer from Horsham developments in a group buy, thanks guys.

Then I was able to come by some LED rear lights, which I gave a light smoke.

 

I also got a lovely gear knob from a forum member.

Everything slowed a little after that, I was just enjoying my great car!

Then I got a great deal on a magnaflow cat back exhaust from this very forum ðŸ˜

Then gas bonnet struts again from tarmacsportz.

 

I then went to tarmacsportz to look at some new wheels, this was when I saw the JR11 wheels in hyper black and had to get them! I stayed with 18" and went 9.5j front and 10.5j rear both et22. ðŸ˜

All quiet again for a while until I was able to get offered busters INGS style front splitter and tarmacsportz side steps. I also purchased a zunsport grill to be fitted with my other goodies from buster. He also sorted out the eyelids..ðŸ˜

So that's it so far I hope this is an acceptable build thread so far. I have a few more plans...OMG Zeditis is still going strong here...😂

I am thinking of doing some engine bay work next. But that's going to take time and effort to clean but will be worth it in the end. 🤔

Sweet ride dude B) Really does look nice.

 

And to think it all started pretty much when you let some of us loose on your bonnet with a DA :lol:

 

"Dammit. I gotta clean the rest of the car now"!

 

Great work mate :thumbs:

Having tried this out today properly it is an awesome mod in sp5 it was trying to spin the wheels in 3rd and it makes the throttle so more responsive.

So a little update some shiny stuff arrived thanks to a forum member and I fitted them yesterday. I have to say I was impressed with the flames, unfortunately I can't post a video of it as Tapatalk doesn't seem to allow it.
