SteveRS Posted May 7, 2011 Posted May 7, 2011 Just thought i'd put it out there that im still looking for a 350Z with the nismo kit fitted. I've been looking for a while now and have missed out on a few on pistonheads and autotrader for one reason or another Is anyone selling or thinking of selling one, preferably with low ish mileage?

buster Posted May 7, 2011 Posted May 7, 2011 believe i saw an azure nismo kit zed on pistonheads , southampton i think.loads done. Quote
SteveRS Posted May 7, 2011 Author Posted May 7, 2011 Do you mean this one http://pistonheads.com/sales/2655884.htm my concern here is that they have stated that it has a full factory fitted nismo kit. If you look at the front bumper there are no headlight washers so this cant be a factory fit kit?? Quote
SteveRS Posted May 7, 2011 Author Posted May 7, 2011 What about the red one that MartinMac knows of Yeah he mentioned that one to me but i dont think his friend is selling it at the mo. Quote

SteveRS Posted May 7, 2011 Author Posted May 7, 2011 Yeah it does look good, but their not being honest in the advert which isn't a good start. Quote
SteveRS Posted May 7, 2011 Author Posted May 7, 2011 Factory fitted would mean its a genuine kit, which is what im after as the after market kits can have fitment issues. I'd just prefer it to be genuine. Quote
SteveRS Posted May 7, 2011 Author Posted May 7, 2011 Has front fog lights apparently! Must be those new invisible ones Quote
clarkie34 Posted May 7, 2011 Posted May 7, 2011 Genuine Nismo is made from fibreglass and is prone to splitting,especially the front bumper. Loads more kits better looking than Nismo. Quote
SteveRS Posted May 7, 2011 Author Posted May 7, 2011 I like this one but its over my budget http://pistonheads.com/sales/2414139.htm Quote
Ebized Posted May 7, 2011 Posted May 7, 2011 What about the red one that MartinMac knows of Yeah he mentioned that one to me but i dont think his friend is selling it at the mo. This is the one Martinmac knows - but given the last post was some time ago....... down to £11.5K then. And it is one of the rare Rosso reds - (same as AK350Z has) viewtopic.php?f=56&t=35930 Might be worth pursuing that a bit further - you never know Quote
martinmac Posted May 7, 2011 Posted May 7, 2011 Mark is changing the clutch on the red Nismo at the moment but also rebuilding his track car so he will let me know when its on the market again. Quote
SteveRS Posted May 7, 2011 Author Posted May 7, 2011 I spoke to martinmac about that particular zed last week, he said he would get in touch with his friend to see if he still wanted to sell it. Apparently its just had a new clutch. Im interested in it a lot i think its got everything im looking for, just waiting on finding out the current mileage. Martinmac said he would get back to me, i dont want to be a pain in the arse and keep pestering him though..................... Quote

Sarnie Posted May 7, 2011 Posted May 7, 2011 What about the red one that MartinMac knows of Yeah he mentioned that one to me but i dont think his friend is selling it at the mo. And it is one of the rare Rosso reds - (same as AK350Z has) Rosso was a MY07 colour Quote
Chilli Red Posted May 8, 2011 Posted May 8, 2011 Factory fitted would mean its a genuine kit, which is what im after as the after market kits can have fitment issues. If it is already fitted and has fitment issues you will be able to see them As Wayne (Clarkie54) says, some of the copies are very good and far more flexible if you nudge a bumper etc. Quote
Arkwright Posted May 8, 2011 Posted May 8, 2011 If the red one that martin is on about is available then you should think very seriously about it. Mark is a top mechanic, very good with nissans, and looks after his cars. I could never understand why it wasn't snapped up when he offered it for sale. Quote

If the car is good, this is the only reason it won't have sold Quote

And it is one of the rare Rosso reds - (same as AK350Z has) Rosso was a MY07 colour I remember wondering about that at the time that ad was running - the pics show it to be more Rosso than Chilli, but then perhaps I interpreted AK350Z's post about that car too literally If the red one that martin is on about is available then you should think very seriously about it. Mark is a top mechanic, very good with nissans, and looks after his cars. I could never understand why it wasn't snapped up when he offered it for sale. The price. If the car is good, this is the only reason it won't have sold Really??? at £11.5 for an 05 Nismo with low miles?? And remember that price was last September so it will be less now. Quote
waseem1978 Posted May 8, 2011 Posted May 8, 2011 I have a z with Nismo kit, I dont know if its factory or after market kit though. Whats your email address, I will send you pics. Quote
