km002916 Posted November 9, 2009 Posted November 9, 2009 Hi everyone , Drove a 350Z for the 1st time a few years back and was smitten but skint. Few years on now and I have just put a deposit down on a grey 52 plate JDM 350Z (think its a GT as its got 18s, Jap sat nav and leather) with 25k on it. Just wanted to introduce myself as I always register with owners forums when I get a car (ex soarer, impreza and 200SX). Quote
km002916 Posted November 9, 2009 Author Posted November 9, 2009 Thanks for the warm welcome folks. Been doing a bit of research, whats people opinions on fitting a plenum spacer, is there a noticable performance increase? Quote
rich5259 Posted November 9, 2009 Posted November 9, 2009 to the club. Face ache starts soon. Don't forget to post photos when you get it as Quote
km002916 Posted November 9, 2009 Author Posted November 9, 2009 Nothings ever simple, despite checking online for an insurance quote for me and the girlfriend and getting two quotes under £750 my current insurer will not cover us on the car (she's 24) and is looking for near enough £200 to cancel my current policy!

chris84 Posted November 9, 2009 Posted November 9, 2009 Insurance... what a pain. Admiral insure me for £740 with 2 yrs no claiims, I'm 24 myself, partners 27 though so she brings it down. Welcome Quote
Sarnie Posted November 9, 2009 Posted November 9, 2009 Nothings ever simple, despite checking online for an insurance quote for me and the girlfriend and getting two quotes under £750 my current insurer will not cover us on the car (she's 24) and is looking for near enough £200 to cancel my current policy! Don't put her on then Quote
bronzee Posted November 10, 2009 Posted November 10, 2009 Welcome to the forum. Hope you get the insurance side of things sorted. Quote
km002916 Posted November 10, 2009 Author Posted November 10, 2009 Admiral looked like giving the best quote for us too, just gutted at £200 fee as I kept a policy going on my last car that I sold 18th Sept under my insurance cos advisement so we could put the 350Z on it when we got it then they say they cant insure it! I've asked them if they could reduce the fee on that basis, waitin on word back. Did say to her about not putting her on it until shes 25 in Jan but didn't go down well and means I'd need 2 run her everywhere which would suck too. Just want to get everythin sorted and get the car, lookin forward to it. Quote

bronzee Posted November 22, 2009 Posted November 22, 2009 Looks good from what I can see in the pics. Did you detail your Z, or employ a professional detailer? Quote
km002916 Posted November 22, 2009 Author Posted November 22, 2009 Gave it a valet myself , worked as a car valet on and off for 10 years odd so take a pride in doin it all myself (and never happy with job anyone else does,lol). Quote
bronzee Posted November 23, 2009 Posted November 23, 2009 You need a slightly sunnier day to show off that valet. Quote
