Had the Mishimoto oil cooler on my Zed and the only issue was that it was a tight squeeze fitting it in there behind the bumper. You may be able to see from the picture below that some of the plastic fins needed to be trimmed so that it didn't rub. Other than that though fairly straight forward AFAIK.

Welcome aboard.

Wasn't cheap to do but then nothing fun ever is really. Oh and I bought secondhand parts too as much as possible. Nothing wrong with that at all.

[quote name='saint' timestamp='1450785744' post='1566291'] [b]Nice engine bay btw, looks like a motor that means business [/b] [/quote] Oh it did. Was supercharged giving out 436Bhp@fly so went very well. Had to sell it earlier this year though unfortunately as a new house purchase with my Mrs meant it wasn't practical enough for what we needed at the time as well as a little more expensive to run than my current car. My build thread is in my signature if you fancy having a look at how it got to look like that.

Looks very nice Paul, ....I'm guessing it's a real tree as well is it?! My father got one once when I was very young but he said never again after all the mess the needles left. Maybe he didn't water his enough though.

I'd settle for just Slave Leia.

Ooohh very nice. Any chance of an engine bay pic please?

Looks a heck of a lot better than it did. Hope it's running straight & true and you get to fully enjoy your Zed now.

You're not the first person to crash a car or have an accident however it was caused so try not to beat yourself up about it (sh*t happens). Always a terrible thing to happen to someone but at Christmas too. Just happy to read you're ok Manners and that nobody else was hurt or involved. Hope it doesn't dampen your Christmas spirit too much and that your bruises heal quickly. Good luck with whatever you decide to get next.

That's terrible that you got bad service from them Has but the racially abusing you part is what really boils my blood. No need for that sort of rubbish, disgusting behaviour. Hopefully some of the more knowledgeable "legal" minded members will be on soon to help you see what's the next best step to take available.

Re: Gold coloured engine bay bolts. I used "Password:JDM" washers when I had my Zed with stainless steel bolts. [img]http://i273.photobucket.com/albums/jj236/GMballistic/020_zpsvh8ozemk.jpg[/img] Mine were red but they make them in gold too as below. Password JDM gold coloured washers with stainless steel CSK bolts: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/GOLD-Password-JDM-Washer-Kit-8pcs-HONDA-SUBARU-CIVIC-INTEGRA-TYPE-R-JDM-EP3-EK9-/161581833108?hash=item259f071b94:g:xSUAAOSwBahUzWqk I know Torqen can apparently supply "[color=#242627][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif][background=rgb(230, 237, 240)]titanium custom bolts, washers and nuts, available in 6 colours - polished/natural, gold, black, green, purple, gold" as advertised in this thread: [/background][/font][/color]http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/97603-torqen-350z-de-engine-bay-dress-up-stuff-what-do-you-need/ Otherwise if you type "gold bolts" into the eBay search bar then literally thousands of options appear providing you know what size you want. The other parts are worth keeping a close eye on the "for sale" section as those type of parts do pop up on here fairly regularly over the year otherwise have a look at some of the other excellent traders on here should you wish to buy new parts if you have no luck in the second hand market. Good luck.

Great progress on the "car" diet.

Welcome aboard Josh. Any pictures of your new Zed? For meets in your area have a look in the "Meets, shows & events" section. In there are all the major yearly national events but also a section dedicated to the different regional areas with there own meets, shows & events etc. Link: http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/20-meets-shows-and-events/

Tbf that is actually pretty bad a***.

^^ Nice.

Hope this helps ~ I've just spotted these that have popped up for sale MikeyM. Link: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/104317-2006-led-rear-lights/ You'll need to be quick though if you want them as they never last long on here before someone with Zeditus snaps them up. I'll PM you as well just in case you miss this post.

Wait what?, ....there's a Zed in the picture too?

Edited your title snoged as I doubt "canera" would come up for people searching for "camera" (no offence intended). If I was going to get a dash camera then personally I'd try to get the best I could afford, ...can't imagine anything more annoying then actually having a dash cam during a "crash for cash" scam, non-fault crash or similar only to find out the footage isn't good enough quality for a prosecution. Good luck with your hunt.

That's so true about the HR bonnet. I did want to get one myself when I had my Zed but instead I put the money towards my supercharger build ~ more go than show.

That's good news Buster. Can't beat a simple free fix.

Happy Birthday Flex, ....hope you're having a good day.

Some very nice mods. In all honesty I'm not a fan of the bonnet vents but as they're black on black they kind of merge in better ~ everything looks great together.

You're welcome.

If Chirag doesn't get back to you on that maybe worth having a good read of his build thread as it's probably in there. Link: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/86570-chirag1988s-build-thread-i-needed-new-tyres-sopage-11/ Welcome aboard btw.

Yeah they are. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Yep. 275/35/19 are £119 odd each from Camskill Kieran: http://www.camskill.co.uk/m55b0s338p98046/Falken_Tyres_Car_Falken_FK453_Azenis_Falken_FK_453_-_275_35_R19_100Y_XL_TL_Fuel_Eff_%3A_F_Wet_Grip%3A_B_NoiseClass%3A_2_Noise%3A_71dB
