Used them during my re build for various OEM parts and the service was superb

I had no idea how young you are Ian! Nivea for Men really does work for you! Hope your having a few light beverages this evening. Catch up soon chap.

After 9 years and a third world debt of expense during my Zeditus journey I totally agree with you.

I know we all take the **** out of the so called" Nissan Main Stealers" due to the ridiculously high prices of OEM parts. Well my local Westover Nissan dealer in Bournemouth where I bought my old girl new back in 07 has shocked the hell out of me!! Quoted 3/4 weeks delivery for my quarter panel,then told it could be up to 8 weeks due to 37 days on the boat from Japan without loading on and off time! What I didn't know is when a Main Dealer cannot source a part that is not in stock in the UK and kicks off to the mother land things happen! Picked this up today which was ordered last Tuesday from Japan! Air freight stickers all over the crate.

As a member of Tunbridge Wells Motor Club I think this could be the way forward for us manual transmission,2 wheel drive old school racers. http://twmc.org.uk/all-circuit-sprint-championship/

Stunning attention to detail once again my friend!

Got a phone call today from my local Nissan dealer today with regard to my pending order. As the song goes "I wasn't expecting that!" Priority shipping via air freight and part will be in the UK on or around the 14th of March! Trying not to believe it so holding my breath for a couple of weeks!

Thanks Bennet but the reset costs £35 so it's not too bad. With regard to the rear quarter I'm going to see how quick a US dealer can get the panel over to me as an insurance policy in case Nissan Japan let me down on their estimated 3/4 week delivery time.

I can't add much more to the other kind words already said. I have spent many happy times with Colin. We had a cracking day at Goodwood in a sprint I was competing in last year and prior to that trying to wrestle Wassos monster V8 into the back of Chris's pickup at the Zed Shed!! You don't meet many genuine nice people in life and he is one of the best. Stick around mate as looking forward to seeing you again with the Silver Pheonix!

As sad as it may seem my poor brother after years in the wilderness of BMWs and of late a V8 jeep,he and his wife are going to test drive a 2013 auto 370GT next week! God rest his soul after all modifications are complete.

Another small update prior to going to the body shop. After replacing all the 4 blown air units the dash airbag light won't go off! After speaking to Chris at the Zed Shed and a bit of inter web searching it appears that the module for all the air bags which is behind the handbrake lever under the centre console needs to be removed,sent to a boffin to have the crash data removed and then refitted. This went in a Jiffy bag tonight! Also I test fitted the second new Srosek rear spoiler from Tarmacsportz as I had only fitted the first one the night before the crash!!

Only a small update but quite significant when considering timescales for the up and coming season. After finally getting the car to a position mechanically where she is ready to go in for her new arse/paint I contact my local Nissan dealer to order the rear quarter panel. Not good news as all Uk stocks are unavailable so after contacting Tarmac and Ewan at Clark Motorsport to see if they could help(thanks guys)i have had to order one from direct from the factory in Japan which could take 3/4 weeks to arrive! So,the body shop I have chosen,who are very busy have luckily given me a slot on the first week of April. I want the car to look perfect and at this stage I'm not prepared to rush things so fingers crossed for her first outing at Japfest.

Sorry to hear this my friend but if it's what you want and a new opportunity has come along then good for you! You and your car will be sadly missed on here so stick around and keep us up to speed on the new secret charriot!

Happy birthday young man!

I hope Alex is right with his hub comment as I changed my bearing,driveshaft at home on axle stands in a couple of hours with the old girl up,on axle stands! Get the parts from Clark motorsport and if your up for it look on YouTube and do it yourself. If not go to a garage that won't take the p..s.

the 350z is a heavy rear wheel drive car which will always struggle for traction off the line and as I have found it gets worse when you add more power! I met Chris Harris at Bedford a few years ago and he told me the 0-60 times they got out of cars were obtained by redlining,side stepping the clutch and slamming into second without lifting the throttle! Many cars broke clutches! In my experience the zed is a car that comes into its own once rolling, let the torque in the upper gears do the work!

Welcome to the forum Lee!

Zorro needs a Supercharger!

American Golf Store sell child sets and I recon the age 7 to 11 would just fit. A soft bag with only irons is the only thing you can get in a z boot. My Callaway driver and woods hang over the wheel arch! Bag on front seat fully reclined is the way forward or a half open boot with bungee cords!

Happy Birthday Dave! Been waiting silently for your 50th. Nivea for men obviously worked for you buddy! Lol

So sorry to see this mate. We all run the the risk of a blow up pushing big numbers with F I but with a built engine it's not expected. Hope you get things sorted.

Dibs on this as in need to replace my buckled one. Pm on its way chap

Hi David My aim is to get the car into the body shop during the first week of March. They need,up to 3 weeks to cut out the rear quarter and weld in a new panel and the small window,fettle the fibreglass front wings,repair the chargespeed rear bumper and new nearside skirt. Also the rear hatch and bonnet need work. If all goes well I need get some road miles under the belt. My aim is to get her ready for Japfest and also to ease the car back on track at my own pace(3slots booked) lol so Gurston in April is probably a bit too soon. Going to mix and match this season with a few more sprints along with the hiilclimbs as they are more suited to the car.

My lovely fiancé Andy is spending Valentine's Day with his loved one....... In the garage with his zed lol. Katrina x x
