*wellsy* Posted April 9, 2010 Posted April 9, 2010 Hey all. have had my 350z a couple of weeks now Having never owned a v6 I was very excited to see how it drives and boy oh boy what a difference from my rx8 turbo!! I bought the car as an ex cat C, needed a new drivers side rear quarter and door, the car also gained from a full respray in the process, its the standard azure blue but the paint type is definetly not, it looks fookin' gorgeous, espeacially in the sunlight The repair work is top notch from the odd bit of overspray in places but hey ho. So much fun to drive, power all the way through the revs and lots of sideways action Spec: 2005 model GT pack Mods: Tsw 19" rimmage decked around 60mm (i think) full nismo bodykit Anyways, il let the pics do the talking: Plans........... yes but unconfirmed at this time. Knowing me im sure they will involve some sort of forced induction lol WHAT THIS SPACE!! any questions and comments welcomed. badabahbabaah im ****in' lovin it Quote
bounty78 Posted April 9, 2010 Posted April 9, 2010 Hi to the club. I have an ex cat C Gunmetal 2003 GT with NISMO N1 body kit like yours. Good fun to drive especially in this weather now the sun has come out to play. Quote
ATTAK Z Posted April 9, 2010 Posted April 9, 2010 .......... .......... welcome .......... .......... Quote
M13KYF Posted April 9, 2010 Posted April 9, 2010 nice could do with some spacers on the front IMO Quote
Andy Posted April 9, 2010 Posted April 9, 2010 Stunning, nice touch with the black roof. Have you got any pics of it pre-crash? Sick I know Quote
Ian Posted April 9, 2010 Posted April 9, 2010 I'd say thats lowered more like 20mm than 60mm though Quote
Pimm Posted April 9, 2010 Posted April 9, 2010 Very nice looking does need spacers on the front though rears look perfect Quote
GT4 Zed Posted April 9, 2010 Posted April 9, 2010 I'd say thats lowered more like 20mm than 60mm though Azzure always looks nice with nismo kit and black roof However the lowering is very strange i have to say too Front look like 20-25mm and rear almost stock height Are these springs or coilies? Front spacers atleast and proper lowering is required Quote
IanS16 Posted April 9, 2010 Posted April 9, 2010 Very nice - the best colour Does need spacers big time though Quote
*wellsy* Posted April 9, 2010 Author Posted April 9, 2010 I'd say thats lowered more like 20mm than 60mm though Azzure always looks nice with nismo kit and black roof However the lowering is very strange i have to say too Front look like 20-25mm and rear almost stock height Are these springs or coilies? Front spacers atleast and proper lowering is required Yeah I cant get my head around the lowering side of things either. when I bought the car it didnt handle very well tbh. had a look at the camber and it was stupidly out!! adjusted it the best i could and it drives alot better now i dont really know what these look like at stock height precisely. however the suspension arms at the front are almost a u sahpe! so i guessed it must have been lowered quite a lot. The springs are all the same brand and arnt coilies. but i cant see any signs of cutting I got the guy to send me the stock springs in the post just incase I started to get really worried lol if i do come to replace them, which would people reccomend spring wise. I know its a bit half assed but I dont really have the investment for coil overs atm. I have much bigger and better things for the car on my mind Have also thought about the spacers but all my local wheel shops/tyre and exhaust centres only seem to stock ones for smaller wheels. anyone got any ideas where I could get some for mine?

Andy Posted April 9, 2010 Posted April 9, 2010 I have some new black spacers in stock. If you click on the link in my sig, it will take you to the deals Liking the plans for the car Quote
*wellsy* Posted April 9, 2010 Author Posted April 9, 2010 So these will fit straight on right. They seem fairly priced for a branded product. Will keep these in mind Quote
Andy Posted April 9, 2010 Posted April 9, 2010 Yes, they are designed for the 350Z so are a direct fit for the hub Quote
*wellsy* Posted April 9, 2010 Author Posted April 9, 2010 obviously yes, but does the make of wheel, make any difference? Quote
Andy Posted April 9, 2010 Posted April 9, 2010 No, obviously the wheel fits on your hub at the moment. If it is a direct fit at the moment then it will be a direct fit onto the spacer as well. If you have spiggott rings on your wheels at the moment then you can just use the spiggott with the spacer and it will work in exactly the same way. These have the 66.1 center bore front & back so effectivley just extends the hub out by 20mm without changing the center bore at all. Quote
*wellsy* Posted April 9, 2010 Author Posted April 9, 2010 Awesome. thanks andy. will check the pennies and get back to ya Quote
bronzee Posted April 10, 2010 Posted April 10, 2010 You can certainly see it's had a respray. The paint has a lot more depth and gloss. Wax can only do so much with stock paint. Love the depth. Quote
*wellsy* Posted April 10, 2010 Author Posted April 10, 2010 thanks When you see it in the flesh, the amount of flek in the paint is insane!! Quote
