Salieri Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 Did the JDM Brickyard have headlight washers? Or is that a replacement front bumper? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris`I Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 Did the JDM Brickyard have headlight washers? Or is that a replacement front bumper? Good spot there! Its named as a Fairlady and is obviously an import, so I sould guess they had an accident at some point. Defiantely worth finding out the details if you indend on buying it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinmac Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 One of our members had occasion to take a great interest in matching paint after an incident last year, he also had a spoiler painted and matched. I will pm him a link to this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M13KYF Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 One of our members had occasion to take a great interest in matching paint after an incident last year, was that for the washing machine or the car Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinmac Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 Not Dave Mike although he is very well up on Matching. Type G had a wagon drive into his car on the way to the hoon, not pretty. The bodyshop did a great job despite a lot of discussion on matching the paint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although not sure if the car in the add is interlargos or brickyard, they are very similar! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
type g Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 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.

type g Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 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 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sunset350z Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 I went to have a look at it today. Its on a 55 plate with 25000 miles. Imported in July 2007 so its in the higher car tax bracket 2 owners in this country. No service history. HPI clear apparently. It has the face lift dash which i didn't think came on a 55 reg car, and the front bumper has the headlight washers? So it has been replaced at some time i would presume. The alignment of the OS headlight and the wing to the bonnet is out which makes me think its been in a frontal impact. No security stickers on the front wings and bumper. Looks like the car has had paint in places but generally the paint finish is very good. The engine bay is finished in a dark grey, again don't know if that's normal on a Jdm, and the rear strut Z cover is painted in a grey instead of silver, looks may do that to mine. I couldn't take it for a test drive as they were in the middle of fitting new plastic wheel arch liners. The car did look nice with the GT4 alloys though. He did say he would drop the price down to £11350 but i reckon he'll take 11k. He's had the car there for quite some time. Personally i'd leave it there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martinmac Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 I was talking about these cars at Z009 and as I remember there are some spec differences with the usual JDMs Steve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stew Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 Although it's Interlagos Fire it doesn't look like the limited edition Type G that Ricky and Pure have. It looks like a normal model in Interlagos. Still nice though! Oh and I think Brickyard was US only for one year but I might be wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Quads Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 2 owners in this country. No service history. To me this would be a killer, the fact the last owner does not even have any service history hints to me that it has not been serviced. While its a lush colour if i were looking this would turn me off to the point of saying no UNLESS they agreed to have a full P3 service and inspection before payment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarnie Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 The trouble is, people get blinded by the colour..............its a low spec standard import, questionable history and possible crash damage................................those three points make the colour irrelevant imo.............

pyn888 Posted July 2, 2009 Author Share Posted July 2, 2009 alot of valid points like sarnie said was nice colour and mileage was low apart from that from what everyone says it sounds a bit dodgy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarnie Posted July 2, 2009 Share Posted July 2, 2009 Just ask why the bumper has headlight washers........... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
