  1. Blitz replica rear spoiler Few members on the forum have these and they look great, just a bit more noticeable then the OEM but nothing over the top Never fitted, £100 collected or £120 delivered
  2. Thanks Kyle Hope for a quick sale, won't be budging on price as it's priced to sell The I forgot to mention the mid pipe alone cost me £200 to get made up
  3. A rare chance to grab a motorised cubby unit Although no one has figured out how to make it work with the button (as far as I know) it would be really simple to hook the motor up to a switch and put it in the car In near mint condition £80 collected or £90 delivered
  4. Upper and lower OEM plenum. Bought off Keyser with the intention of making it purple but obviously selling everything now £100 collected, £120 delivered due to weight and size
  5. Bought it new from Tarmac about 8 months ago. Still in mint condition with all screws needed to fit it On the car: Think these were something like £110 brand new, so wanting £80 collected or £90 delivered
  6. Bought from Steve @ Redline Styline earlier this year, my strut brace is now up for sale It's thicker and stronger than the OEM strut brace, and it's shiney! Unfortunately where I have the spacers installed for my plenum spacer, it raised the strut up that the bonnet was catching on it, so there are 2 small marks that can be seen if you look closely What it looks like on the car: The feet are painted in my custom purple pearl (the best colour ever) and although some has come off where the bolts are, you can barely see the paint that's missing when it's in place Brand new these are £190, I'm offering this as is for £100 collected or £120 delivered If you want the feet painting, I can have this done professionally for you in any colour for an extra £40 (£30 plus £10 postage costs)
  7. They're like buses, you wait ages for one and then 2 turn up at once For sale is my favourite mod for the 350z - a genuine Nismo exhaust Now, mine is simply the back box which is what gives the Nismo it's distinct sound. It is in very good condition overall, with a few expected scratches and dings which can't be seen once it's fitted I have polished this regularly over the last 8 months of owning it, I love the look of it and of course the sound of it As I only bought the back box, I had a custom 3" straight through mid pipe made up specifically for the Nismo which compliments it's sound very well, but it is a little loud for some Few video's of the sound, with Berk decats and a Motordyne XYZ pipe with HFC Gorgeous sound! There are 3 noticeable dings which I want to mention, but these can't be seen once it's fitted to the car 2 here, 1 in the middle and 1 near the Weldina Nismo badge And 1 on the inside of one of the tips, but again can't be seen unless you're looking for it On the car: For the Nismo back box on it's own - £400 collected from Sutton in Surrey The 3" custom made mid pipe is a work of art. Took over 6 hours to make and the welds are amazing. Cost me £200. No issues whatsoever with this, apart from is scraping a bit where my car was a bit low... £100 for the mid pipe by itself, again collected from Sutton in Surrey Or £450 for the pair together, collected from Sutton in Surrey Delivery for these is a bit difficult due to size, I can deliver personally if you're around the London area for an extra cost to cover fuel
  8. Got it, emailed you
  9. A plan so cunning you could brush your teeth with it! Essentially, I have been very unhappy due to a number of reasons over the last year or so. I work my socks off 5 days a week, come home alone to a depressing and dingy flat to sleep, and then get up for work the next day to do it all over again. The weekend is my outlet for fun, which the majority of my time is spent in/with the Zed as it's my pride and joy Unfortunately, this situation has led to depression which has hit me so hard in recent weeks, that I've needed to take a huge decision in order to get myself out of it My flat is lovely - the best thing I could afford at the time of buying it 2 years ago with the idea of turning it into a home for me and the Mrs at the time. Sadly, me and her didn't work out and the flat has since changed from a home to simply some bricks and mortar where my bed just happen to conveniently be placed. So, it needs to go in order for me to move on with my life, buy a new place and have a fresh change of scenery to get me out of this crippling depression before it does something serious to me Unfortunately, the flat needs work. Needs a new central heating system, decorating throughout and a bit of work on the bathroom. All in all I'm looking at around £5k worth of work before it is up to scratch for selling. I need rid ASAP and it will simply either not sell or take forever to sell in it's current shape. Whilst I have the option of a loan or asking for help from family for this money that I need to invest, I've taken the decision to do this myself without help from the banks or relatives. This sadly means that my beloved Zed will be going it is my only real expression of joy in my current state, but it's a sacrifice I have to make for my overall well-being So, as many of you have seen already, I am currently in the process of splitting the Zed. I have to give a huge thank you to Buster and Keyser at the Zed Shed. Those of you that have been there know how ridiculously enthusiastic, generous and willing they are to help. Supported by a great team with Kim, Net and co. All in all, some of the best people I have met on this forum and generally in life. Thank you so much guys!!! After some shenanigans last week in which it took 7 hours to change some brake pads and install some braided lines I was in touch with Chris again to ask if he could help me out yesterday at around 9.30am, eventually turning up at about 1.30pm due to traffic....within 15mins, Bob has the car up in the air, Nismo exhaust off and standard exhaust on. I couldn't believe how QUICK that was! Also as you can see, my LED rear lights were pinched too! Then Net turned up, and the discussion of my wheels started. After some hmmm'ing and ahh'ing, my wheels were stolen whilst my back was turned, stuck on Net's car and I was left with some standard alloys A couple of other bits were exchanged for standard parts as well, and with Bob on the verge of passing out due to the heat, I once again thanked everyone for their amazing work and cruised on home, in a much quieter zed Today was my turn to take the rest of the bits off that I could, which included the removal of the strut brace, Rare JDM cover and motorised number plate, and then taking pictures of everything to put up for sale which I'll be making threads for this afternoon This decision has taken me an entire week to convince myself I have to do it, and I do HAVE to do it because I do not want to be lending from people. This is for me to control and make happen, so the Zed has to be sacrificed I have made some really great friends on here; those of you that have helped me with the car, planned meets or just given general advice over the past few weeks are amazing! You know who you are But, I would like to mention a few names for the sake of showing my gratitude for their efforts: 1st and foremost - Bob and Chris (not necessarily in that order, I'll let those 2 fight that one out). Your help over the last couple of weeks in particular has just been life saving, despite me nearly dying from the heat in traffic on the way down both times Ian (Wasso) - for putting up with my impeccable taste in plenum spacer colours! And general advice over the time I've been on here Graham (glrnet) - general organisation of local meets, advice over the the last few weeks and just generally an all round nice guy Mr Langford (gsexr) - relatively new member but I used to work with his son and has been very supportive over the past few weeks especially And many others that I just can't think of right now I will not be going anywhere, will obviously be a bit quiet on here once everything is sold, but I want to keep in the loop and hope to one day get back behind the wheel of a Zed. It is truly the best car I have ever owned and I still cannot believe to this day that you can get so much car for so little money. My car has not let me down once, apart from tiny things like passenger side window motor (or is that a factory fitted option on Zed's? ), power steering pump and windscreen washer pump. I hope to sell the Zed onto someone who will keep it on the forum so I can see it looked after as well as I did with mine Apologies for the essay, just needed to be said. My plans for myself are massive and life-changing, especially at just 23 years old. There is also another element within this plan that I just pray comes to fruition, which is bringing the love of my life of 4 years back to the UK to spend my life with her. She recently moved to Canada and has begun her new life with her family and a new man, but part of the situation I'm in right now is due to her departure which I just haven't been able to deal with. She is my life and soul and I need her back so that I can plan my life with her by my side. She is obviously reluctant to do so seeing as she has her new life, but is slowly considering the idea. She is my absolute world and would make me a completely different person if she was to come back for me Will keep in touch with everyone on here lookout for some goodies in the for sale section that haven't already been snapped up by the Zed Shed
