  1. Whats the best model etc of Scorpion exhaust for the 350Z? I've got a business meeting with them soon and want to see if I can wranggle myself a little something out of the deal.
  2. I found this online. I dont know whats involved or how good it is but hope it helps. http://cgi.ebay.com.my/Folding-Remote-K ... 0363001803
  3. Black is not just black! Nerd part inc: Although Black (and white for that matter) don't qualify as colours, but shades, there are different versions. For Black it can appear blacker depending on the light absorbing properties of the paint. The more light it absorbs, the blacker it will apear. Sorry for the waffle, the long and short of it is get a paint match and check ur mates a pro not a GCSE student with a can of spraypaint!
  4. Pearl fire red is the colour as i remember
  5. I've loved this colour since I first saw it on a GTI pug over 10 years ago. Just been quoted £2k for a full respray in it too. What you guys think? http://www.tcpglobal.com/images/rsp2702.jpg
  6. Has anyone completely replaced the OEM engine with something...... well, ludicrous? Anything like a meaty V8? It's complete fantasy at this point but I'm considering turning my Zed into F&F style major project. What engines from other cars BMW's Chevy's, Cosworth etc might fit the Zed? I suppose the end goal is to get something around 600hp out of her. Also something that could stand to be twin turbo'd or superchargred with +100 BHP on standard. I know it would have to be some solid enginieering! Love to hear from absolutely anyone that's got an opinion on this...................
  7. Yup, a common problem. In fact mine is suffering with exactly the same issue! If you can contact him a user on here R35LEE fixes them for about £50. Drop him a PM.
  8. Thinking about getting rid of the Bose head unit for somthing... well, less dissapointing. Is the amp that powers all those spears and sub in the double din head unit or somewhere else? Basically what I'm asking is can I just go out and buy a good double din unit and plug it in or is this going to turn into a major project (and ball ache)? Cheers all!
  9. Does anyone know where I can buy new or 2nd hand the Nismo N1 Bodykit that was a factory option when buying the car?
  10. Def the best solution. Say that and watch the ****er squirm! I'd only hold back if your neighbours big and mental, but hey I'm a pussy!

    Nice wheels

    My eye's! Oh lord my eye's!
  12. Squeeka nd rattles on the interior. Jap's make such awesome cards can't see why they don't just put more finese and craftsmanship intot he insides.
  13. Got it working. Was just a bit fiddly as you said. As always, thanks for the help everyone!
  14. Welcome matey, All the resources you need to find your ideal Zed will be on here. I managed to pick up my UK GT pack last year for about £9.5k. For your money you're probably either looking at a Jap import or a higher mileague UK like mine. I'd say you're better of going with the later as it's easier to follow the cars history, where i'ts been and what it's been through. Also, a lot of insurer's don't like imports so you may end up paying more in the long run going down that route. Whatever you decide the engine's are rock solid and go on forever (like all Jap cars) and as long as they have been serviced regualrly (every 9k) high mileague isn't somehting you should fear and certainly doesn't mean what it once did. Just take your time, read through the many, many, many threads there are on the forum about buying a used Zed and I'm sure you'l find your perfect Zed for a price thats right. When you find a specific car that you may be looking at buying, put a link to the ad and pictures on the site. There's a massive pool of Zed expertise here and we may be able to spot something a miss that you may not have noticed. Good luck!
  15. All, I'm sure I'm being totally special but I can't for the life of me figure out how to work the bluetooth adaptor my car came with. The adaptor looks like the pic below but inside the cubby hole (under left arm) there is what looks to be a phone dock. Only thing is the adaptor doesnt clip in and I can't find any wires to plug it in anywhere. Sensible non-offensive advice (sure i sdeserve it tho ) really appreciated!
  16. I have this problem with my MY53 Zed. Its starting to drive me bonkers too! Any advice on fixing rattles gratefully recieved.
  17. Hi Wayne! Lots of friendly knowledgeable peeps here to help you out. Chances are that most of the questions you've got have been asked and answered before. The search bar is your friend! GL with your purchase though!
  18. I agree with all the previous posts. You don't know what he's got under the hood. My friend had an R32 and now has an S3. Both of them look completely stock with no bodykit or anything. Only thing is the R32 was supercharged and his S3 pumps out 420 HP. Seen him skin Porches!
  19. Go and buy one of Nurrish's Sat Navs and use that for your mp3's. Thats what I'm saving for!
  20. OMG I MUST HAVE ONE OF THESE. NURRISH GET ON IT AND MAKE A CUSTOM 350Z CRADLE AND IL ORDER ONE OFF YOU NOW!
  21. Seriously. What the hell is going on with all the twenty year olds that can afford Zeds?! I don't think I had it hard at that age but could never in a million afford a Zed. Don't get me wrong, I'm happy for you and you will be the toast of your mates. Just doesn't add up. Shudder to think what the insurance would be too! Gratz tho matey and welcome to the community
  22. All, I want to be able to listen to all the music I have on my iPhone through my Bose system. Anyone got any tips or recommendations for FM adaptors / hardwire? / Getting a good cradle? Anything? Cheers, James B
  23. Holy @*!#! That dude should be reported to the RSPZ (Royal Society for the Protection of cruelty to Zed's)
  24. Isn't the amp in the Bose system built into the double din head unit? If I'm right then thats gonna be a problem for you running all those speakers etc of a head unit without an additional amp.
