lew Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Hi folks. My name is Lew, I live in Helensburgh, West Scotland. Im car-less at the moment as I sold my Skoda Fabis vRS 2 weeks ago, however I pick up a facelift 2006 black 350Z tomorrow. Been shopping for one for a while so hopefully I have chosen wisely. I've had a mixed history of cars in the last few years, ranging from an 86bhp rover 400 turbo diesiel, to a 425bhp Mk2 Focus RS, however, I have never owned a 2 seater, never owned a RWD car and never owned a Nissan, so I am really looking forward to the experience! Not the best pics as they are screen shots from my phone, but you get the idea (im sure you've all seen one before!) Get some better pics up when I collect it tomorrow.

lew Posted January 25, 2013 Author Share Posted January 25, 2013 Cheers for the welcome folks! I know I should probably search for the anwser to this, but the first mod I want to do is a more vocal exhaust back-box to release a bit of sound. Im watching a Japspeed K1 exhaust (second hand) on ebay at the moment that finishes soon. Ive seen and heard a few vids on you tube of what they are like and im quite pleased with the sound. I was just wondering if they are rated as a decent exhaust and what the difference between the k1 and k2 versions are??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lew Posted January 25, 2013 Author Share Posted January 25, 2013 Search, is indeed, your friend No problem, will do. Im up on general forum etiquite, just being lazy as it finishes soon lol! The Z is totally standard and has 71,000 miles, a little more than I wanted, but I didnt expect to get a facelift for my budget. 4 previous and full nissan service history, including the expensive 50-odd-thousand mile one.

martinmac Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Plenty of other options available and if you stick to the traders on here you will be fine, the ones that dont work get removed pretty quickly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

S1 HNK Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 Lovely looking car! As said dont buy that japspeed exhaust, come to a meet and have a listen to what suits your taste as they never sound right on YouTube. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spursmaddave Posted January 26, 2013 Share Posted January 26, 2013 71,000 and just 4 services.... It should have had 9k, 18k, 27k, 36k, 45k, 54k, 63k and is due it's 8th service very soon K1 & K2 are the bottom end of the scale quality wise and the sound especially the K1 is just loud not nice...
