Wow that is very nice. Come on Euromillions.

Gold/bronze. Black. Some more ideas in this thread: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/70435-rays-refurb-on-a-sunset-standard-or-different-colour/ And this one: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/90092-pic-heavyphotoshopped-pics-of-rays-in-different-colours-on-a-gunmetal-zed/

Sorry to hear about the impending divorce Keith. Never nice when people split up especially if it's not mutual. Wish you all the best & hope it's not too painful for you. Regarding the Zed Keith ~ why not get a proper for sale advert written as from what I can tell you pass all the criteria needed to be able to advertise it on here for free. Eg: member for more than 6 months with at least 100 post counts. Link: http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/51-zeds-for-sale/ GLWTS.

Welcome aboard. As Veeg posted above the only way to truly know what power the cars running now is to get it on a dyno to tell. If you do find it's down on power then the usual mods to do for a slight increase in power/performance are: HFC's (High flow Cats) or De-Cats. Full exhaust system (Y-pipe, centre section & back box). Plenum spacer ( http://www.h-dev.co.uk/product_info.php?cPath=78_169_293_472_479&products_id=25052 ). Performance panel filter (also 2006 "fly boy" air box mod ~ http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/59986-pre-2006-airbox-conversion-kit-now-back-in-stock-2015/ ) or an induction kit although most agree the performance panel filter is better for performance. That's the usual bits most people do and then follow that lot by an UpRev (remap) to unleash the performance benefits.

Welcome aboard James. Don't forget to check out the "Zeds for sale" section on here during your Zed hunt. Link: http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/51-zeds-for-sale/

No problem for the link and I get what you mean about too much black. Shadow chrome is a very good choice though if you do decide to deviate from the OEM colour.
-
It's probably already there for all we know & judging by the amount of GTR's they have there.
-
Very smart. Personally on the alloys front I'd go black or shadow chrome black for the "stealth bomber" look. Maybe worth a PM though Karl to some of the other GT4 owners in this thread to see if they can help if you really want the OEM colour.

On another note I spotted this earlier...

Very nice Bobby. Can't beat a little "mini" meet of like minded enthusiasts.

Different car and different discs but I have the EBC turbo groove discs on my Zed. Imo they work very well for a fast road set up especially with the DS2500 pads I have. Another option for your 370Z are the Stillen grooved discs that I see Tarmac Sportz sell. Link: http://www.tarmacsportz.co.uk/GB/370z_Stillen_Brake_Discs/370Z-370ZSTDISC.aspx

Ok just been to have another look and grab a picture for you Graham. YELLOW ARROW: Just a thin foam sticky pad. RED ARROW: Is a rubber approximately 10mm high bung. GREEN ARROW: Alarm cup stopper. The two black strips either side of the bonnet latch are foam strips that I have added to protect my carbon fibre cooling plate and the two black strips in the middle of the bonnet are standard rubber piping which I believe are to protect the strut bar from rubbing. Hope that helps clear it up.

Fuel Gauge Misreading and Rough Idle! Help!!!
GMballistic replied to drysd4le's topic in 350Z General
Done it for you Rich. Link: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/54763-how-to-fix-the-inaccurate-fuel-gauge-pdf/ -
It's a difficult one Fluke. Are you bored of the look of the car then? Is it just because you feel you've modded it as much as you want? Are you after more performance? Or do you just want to experience something different (turbo, 4WD etc)? Even though I have spent loads on my Zed I often think about changing it. It's not that it doesn't look great or go great now that's it's supercharged it's just that I'd like to experience different cars for different reasons. Also without having my engine rebuilt or adding NOS to it I've kind of reached the best performance level I can get from it without throwing an even more ridiculous sum of money at it. I could get a few more Bhp here & there from certain things but it won't be the performance jump I experienced with going from NA to FI. Now some of the cars I lust over are out of my current price range, like the R35 GTR for example. Others though I could definitely afford though like the Audi RS4 and Evo 8. When I used to change cars it usually happened because I was chasing a better performance vehicle that I could afford and afford to insure. Nowadays the insurance isn't a problem so it's just how far does my budget stretch. My advice would be to keep the Zed for the time being Fluke but stop spending anymore money on it bar the service items. Start saving up and start selling some of the parts you don't need for the Zed & keep looking through Autotrader, Pistonheads etc to see if anything just jumps out at you that you'd really like.

Nope you're not missing one. I just went and checked my Zed and it only has one. It's not a stopper either Graham it's for the alarm sensor.
-
^^ Like that Southpaw.
-
Always used to hear good things about them from Civic owners and I know they have done some amazing car builds over the years. Sure anyone's Zed would be in good hands with them. You should definitely consider it as you've got all the basic performance bits already done.
-
Good shout SHEZZA, ...I knew I was forgetting someone. Should have remembered TDi though from my Civic Type R days.
-
I've not got the Berks HFC's anymore sorry, ...went to Berks De-Cats when I had the car supercharged.
-
Should look great when finished.
-
Not a good service from that seller then. Can they be repaired at least though so you can sell them on to regain some cash? Highly recommend Berks HFC's as they sound great & the quality is excellent.
-
Basically all do the same thing although prices very. Most people though go to whomever's closest I think on the whole though. The one's I know of are as below... Horsham Developments: http://www.h-dev.co.uk/index2.php?page=350z_mapping Abbey Motorsport: http://www.abbeymotorsport.co.uk/ RS Tuning: http://www.rstuning.co.uk/dealers-ezp-17.html?zenid=4lf0nsavnsvo72nsqm9ak8uns3 Personally I have used Horsham Developments for all my UpRev's and highly recommend them, although a bit of a drive for you.

Got it and replied.
