  1. Ive just arrived offshore , but when i get back I will bake my original light and offer it on an exchange basis with the next person thats wants one.
  2. Took the chance to take my rear bumper off last night while it was sunny and fitted my cleared out light and parking sensors. Many requests for pics so here is a pic of the rear with the light and the parking sensors installed - can anyone see thesensors??
  3. I have the generic fault code OBDII interface that I used for my mini, Is the Z OBDII?? and if so where is the port (havent looked for it yet, and assume it must be under the steering column somewhere).
  4. I had to take the rear bumper off last night in order to fit my "clear" rear light that I put in the oven the other week, and after reading about the parking dynamics sensor in this thread I thought I would take the chance, so I ordered it Sunday night and it turned up tuesday morning. Really simple to fit and wire up and works like a charm - the polystyrene pad over the crash bar insulates the sensor wire from the metal work by much more than the 3cm recommended in the installation instructions so no issues there. I was going to go with two sensor wires (supplied in the kit) but it said whilst it would increase the range it would also increase the number of false alarms so didnt bother. The range is fine with just the one but I would be interested to see what its like with both fitted. The "brain" is hidden behind the trim at the back of the boot and the speaker wire runs up under the rubber trim at the side of the hatch all the way up to the side of the drivers seat and sticks with a little sticky pad. Mate that helped me has been a vehicle auto electrician and installer for 20 years and hadnt seen these before and was very sceptical about whether they would work, so we tested it by me reversing at his legs and it beeped a good 5ft from his legs All in all a good cheap and tidy solution
  5. This has a list of voice commands in http://www.350z-uk.com/downloads/KE283- ... manual.pdf , I had the same problem when I got my Z.
  6. took me a bit of headscratching but I think it was short hand for pressure washer
  7. Stew I was actually joking but that would be great if you want the challenge Im just back from Invergordon and offshore on thursday for 2 weeks then off on holiday for a week so absolutely no rush at all
  8. Ok Stew you polish yours and sell it to me and then you can have mine in return and do it all over again
  9. Struggling to find anyone round Aberdeen that could do it - so thought this was worth a shot. Cheers
  10. Hi Well I came across a thread about polishing the plenum and must admit it looks Does anyone have a spare plenum for sale? If so I could get that polished and then swap it out for mine and offer that to the next person that wants to polish theirs Cheers Mart
  11. OK my light is all done and ready to go on the car, when removing the rear bumper do you have to replace any of the clips or will it all come off and go back on without any problems?? If clips are required does anyone have part numbers ? Cheers
  12. When the BMW Mini first came out Mini issued a set of Switch label sticker "covers", I have a couple of sets left over - might start using them on the Z
  13. Parts arrived today - Cheers, fast & friendly transaction
  14. Will be the same Ok cool, well PM me when you are in production - seeing as you have 10 weeks or so on your hands
  15. I would be interested in the spacer if someone could tell me where to get a fitting kit
  16. We have had several projects from various oil companies shelved but as we had already completed the design, build and commissioning of them we are now charging them storage space for the gear Means I cant get the Z into our workshop now though I was just looking round at grounding kits - is yours a super duper new design or just more of the same? Would be interested in buying one from a forum member though if you do start production.
  17. Martin, a nice Gold colour always looks good with Azure. yeah did think that, or was looking at black chrome, will keep thinking - wish I had been on here when you sold your LMGT4 weekend wheels lol LOVE THOSE WHEELS
  18. Keep coming back to these pics, wondering now what colour would look good on an Azure - decisions decisions
  19. PM received = cheers for that Z wheels I was going to do are my "spares" so no probs with them having to store car etc and are kerb damage free but have a couple of sets of mini wheels I might get done too
  20. Looks will keep an eye out for the car round Aberdeen. I was going to get Finesse to do mine but might try Motorwerks now, what were they charging per wheel and do they repair kerb damage?
  21. I think its the fact that its the house from Ferris Buellers day off that is putting the price up
  22. Dont think this is a repost but if it is Im sorry I got sent this - recognise it?? Clicky Linky Wish I could afford it - that garage is cool, Z would look great in there (just hope it wouldnt fall out of the window
