Wasso Posted May 4, 2013 Posted May 4, 2013 Looks like my car Good work looks amazing (well I would say that!) Quote
bpmjames Posted May 4, 2013 Posted May 4, 2013 Looks lovely mate. Are catch cans a pretty standard mod on 350s? Do they breathe quite heavy and create a lot of vapour? Sent from my GT-N8010 using Tapatalk HD Quote
Paddy78 Posted May 4, 2013 Author Posted May 4, 2013 (edited) Looks lovely mate. Are catch cans a pretty standard mod on 350s? Do they breathe quite heavy and create a lot of vapour? Usually only for FI, I want one for a bit of bling, even if it's not actually needed. Thanks for the comments too guys! Edited May 4, 2013 by Paddy78 Quote
Will370z Posted May 4, 2013 Posted May 4, 2013 Looks great, nice work. Love that colour in the sun Quote
Paddy78 Posted July 27, 2013 Author Posted July 27, 2013 Fairly busy day of tinkering in the sunshine (And ducking inside when it chucked it down). Carbon Bonnet Dampers (Thanks to Steve 350Z / Redline Styling): Engine Torque Damper (Thanks to Trigg) - Almost completely hidden in the bowels of the beast: Anodised Plenum Spacer (Thanks to Ian / Wasso) - Not fitted today, but haven't showed it off yet: Anodised Slam Panel (Thanks to Ironhide): Z Dipstick (Totally out of focus): Also finally got round to fitting Fly Boy's mirror mod, but managed not to save the video of the mirrors folding. I'm sure you can use your imaginations! Thanks for looking! Next Up (Imminently): Carbon Battery / Fluid Covers - On the way from Octet Rare JDM Engine Cover - On the way from Smudgedon Quote
Wasso Posted July 27, 2013 Posted July 27, 2013 Looking good mate. The blue looks really vivid. Top job Quote
Ogman Posted August 18, 2013 Posted August 18, 2013 Hi mate how did you paint the part underneath the grill. Does it come free from the bumper or is it a case of masking it off? Thanks! Quote
Paddy78 Posted August 18, 2013 Author Posted August 18, 2013 Hi mate how did you paint the part underneath the grill. Does it come free from the bumper or is it a case of masking it off? Thanks! I took the bumper off as I changed the side reflectors at the same time. You could definitely just mask it whilst on the car though. Just a few coats of Plastikote and it looks really good. I've had it done a few months now and there's no sign of wear. Quote
Paddy78 Posted March 12, 2014 Author Posted March 12, 2014 Bonnet fitted yet? Pics at the weekend! Should be getting her back on Friday... can't wait! Quote
Paddy78 Posted April 2, 2014 Author Posted April 2, 2014 So, new items fitted: Carbon Brake and Battery Covers, Painted Plenum and Throttle Body, Takeda Intake, Tarmac Polished Strut, Rare JDM Engine Cover, Lots of Bolts. Spot the mistake... I wonder why I had an erratic idle... Getting there, but still needs a bloody good clean! Planned before Wales: Take pictures of Front Lip and Bulge Bonnet Paint Cam Chain Covers More Bling Bolts Coolant Hoses Thanks for looking 1 Quote
Daryl Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 Intake tube round the wrong way? What paint did you use on your plenum? Looks lice? Did you buy your intake pipes like that also, so did you paint them too? Quote
GMballistic Posted April 4, 2014 Posted April 4, 2014 Intake tube round the wrong way? What paint did you use on your plenum? Looks lice? Did you buy your intake pipes like that also, so did you paint them too? Possibly as the MAF plug does look in the wrong place, ...but from what I can see it also looks like the rubber surround for the oil filler cap is trapped under the plenum! Doh. Look's good though Paddy apart from that. Quote
Paddy78 Posted April 4, 2014 Author Posted April 4, 2014 Intake tube round the wrong way? If you check the picture I trapped the rubber around the oil filler cap in the plenum! What paint did you use on your plenum? Used BBQ / Stove paint which I got from Homebase. Did you buy your intake pipes like that also, so did you paint them too? The intake comes like that. It's a Takeda bought from Tarmac. Quote
Mopedmark Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 Looks like you one of my New Core Strut Braces would look mighty fine under there I will be advertising them later tonight or tomorrow 4 Quote
Paddy78 Posted April 5, 2014 Author Posted April 5, 2014 Looks like you one of my New Core Strut Braces would look mighty fine under there I will be advertising them later tonight or tomorrow If you mean the silver brace at the front of yours, then you have your first customer! 1 Quote
Tinyflier Posted April 5, 2014 Posted April 5, 2014 2nd customer here (was checking For Sale/Member Trader section!)... although will prob have it dipped or powder coated and perhaps prefer without the 350Z cutout? David. 1 Quote
