  1. Bandit for the price of that you could have a 350Z built that would kick the cr*p out of this over priced, over hyped Zed. Personally I'd rather buy a Zed from an enthusiast who cares about his car rather than some car that's been in a film & royally abused. Been for sale for ages and is always silly money. Not surprised it's been reposted and don't feel bad Bandit as it comes up every 3-6 months or so.
  2. Yep same here, ...the funny thing is I found was that removing the non-return valve actually increases the power of the jet wash because it's not as restricted.
  3. Your best bet is to try the traders I know who deal with Vortech. Who are Torqen and Tarmac Sportz. http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/228-torqen/ http://www.350z-uk.com/forum/146-tarmac-sportz/ PM either of them to see if they can help is your best bet. Good luck.
  4. It sounds like the problem will be your non-return valve ~ it's either blocked or broken. It's located underneath the scuttle panel on the drivers side inline with the washer pipes (at least it is on the Coupe). You can get to it if I recall through the brake/clutch cylinder cover, ...if you look in there under the scuttle you should see the clear pipe tubing I'm talking about. One of the pipes will have a plastic part in it which is the non-return valve. This is what I'm talking about below... The best thing you can do to fix this problem (imho) is to remove the non-return valve completely and replace it with a straight through piece of pipe to join the tubes together. Like the below eBay link.

    GT-Four

    Having a V8 in it I bet it sounds fantastic but the owner should maybe look at getting some larger alloys, ...the gap around the front wheel ruins how it looks imho. Looks in great condition though.
  6. Guess Mad Max was out shopping. Tbf it was kind of cool in a strange way.
  7. Sounds lovely on WOT and the pops n' bangs are great too.

    GT-Four

    Your GT4 looks better Coldel although I've always fancied a Supra.
  9. Looking good. Your Mrs must be very understanding to let you have it in the house like that. I mean mines the same (very understanding) but some partners would go mental over a stripped bike/engine etc in the house.
  10. When I was having my supercharger fitted by Horsham they had trouble with one of the Mishimoto hoses which had to fit behind the s/c plate (not sure if it's the same hose as you?!). In the end I told them I was happy enough not to have it fitted but I kept the pipe. It's at my parents so I could maybe have a look tomorrow if it's the same one and then if so you can have it if you want it for the price of postage, ...it is red though & not black. Just let me know & I'll take a look at theirs tomorrow.
  11. Look forward to hearing how you get on with it.
  12. Yep thanks and that was fitted with a cable tie in each corner (x4) and the two screws in the middle.
  13. I wouldn't have thought that was the issue as all the plastic parts should be still attached to the bumper. Personally I found the fitment confusing even with the instructions as I too couldn't see anywhere the four long screws would fit to nicely. The centre ones I pre-drilled and put those in with no issues. In the end I thought the best way to fit mine was by using black cable ties which honestly weren't even noticeable for the most part. Judge for yourself below....
  14. Jealous. Get a video of the "pops n' bangs" if you can.
  15. Imo adding O2 spacers to the Berks will be a waste of time with the only real way to fix the problem being having an UpRev. If you can't afford the UpRev rather than buying the spacers a better use of your money would be to get an OBDII reader so you can read any error codes, reassuring you that when the EML does come on it is only because of the O2 sensors & nothing else, ...it will also make switching the EML off a doddle.
