Modifications compatibility with UK Zeds


Removed

Recommended Posts

nismo Stainless Steel Brake Line Kit for Brembo brakes Code: [46200-RSZ30]

Available from Prospec Motorsports in the UK.

The brake line kit Courtesy Nissan sell, Code: [46200-22Z33], is not designed for Brembo brakes.

 

nismo R-tune 350Z cold-air intake (version 1 and 2) [16576-RNZ36] can only be fitted as a short ram intake as the headlight washer reservoir on UK cars prevents installation behind the front bumper:

nismo US rear spoiler - when fitted, the base does not cover the mounting holes for the UK rear spoiler.

The nismo JDM spoiler fits correctly.

 

Exhaust headers for US cars do not fit UK vehicles.

JDM design headers may fit, but it would be wise to check with the manufacturer.

 

Mats from left-hand drive countries are not suitable for UK Zeds.

 

Injen SES Straight-Tip exhaust from US, doesn't clear the 'Aero' diff cover, removal or trimming is needed. Also might need some heating up and bending of passenger side pipe from CAT.

 

US manufactured Grounding Kits will require a degree of ingenuity when fitting, as the location of the Battery Housing / Brake Fluid Reservoir Housing is reversed on US cars to the UK/ cars

 

JDM Grounding Kits fit without modification

 

Invidia exhaust as with the Injen SES exhaust requires removal of diff aero cover.

 

Vortech supercharger requires removal of headlight washer bottle mounted low down in the passenger side of the front bumper. Can be moved elsewhere.

 

Stillen Superchager requires;

(1) either a replacement bonnet or a carbon fibre "hump" inserting into your existing one to accomodate the hardware that sites on top of the engine. Replacement bonnet is made from fibre-glass.

(2) removal of the front strut brace although Stillen do sell a replacement one which while structurally seems sound, is not the prettiest looking bit of kit on the market (twin tubular stainless steel).

 

2006 Z LED rear lights: if coming from the US market they fit the Z as a straight swap: parts number RH LED LAMP - 26550 - CF40A andLH LED LAMP - 26555 - CF40A

If they come from Japan there is a need for modification to the wiring plug.

 

the NISMO exhaust is a straightforward replacement for stock and sounds better than most particularly in the 2k-4k rev range.
