  1. Thank you just ordered! Think it went through OK in the end 1st order failed, 2nd went through but gave an error when returning to merchant.
  2. Hello are there any traders that can deliver spark plugs and filter for next Monday (Tuesday latest) please? I was looking at Denso Iridium sparkles but NGK OK also, and Cosworth filter. Thanks.
  3. Excellent thanks chaps! Jon - I'm after new parts on this occasion, but thank you. Iain.
  4. Wheres the best place to buy a new W brace from and also the kidney shaped brackets that it bolts to? I want an original brace not the aftermarket one. Thanks Iain.
  5. Is this possible on all models with cruise control do you know ? I thought it was just JDM's?
  6. Here's a question; if you have the re-map done with HFC's, would there be an adverse affect if they were swapped back to OEM cats on the same map?
  7. That sounds sooooo good. I can't afford it right now either, but here's a free 'bump'!
  8. I used https://www.facebook.com/DetailedByDale/ he knows his stuff. 20 miles from Coventry and only a slight detour on your insane drive down!
  9. 1. cob1980 (paid) 2. Z370Z (paid) 3. Humpy 4. Harryjax 5. STYLZ
  10. Do we get confirmation of a place or is a PM good enough? Ta.
  11. Very nice mate, similar to mine got it last April with 45k miles...and a rotten W brace!
  12. Price drop, £60, I have no idea what these are worth. Any interest?
  13. Ha, I know, and that was the cheaper option! More expensive to have the whole lot ceramic but he said in all honestly it was probably not worth it as it's not my daily plus ceramics can accentuate any blemishes in the paintwork apparently. The wax he put on is good for a year in normal conditions. But yer you could say I'm a bit anal about it, I think partly because I wasn't able to buy a 350z new back in the day I want it looking like new! Also I wanted someone to use the paint depth gauge on it so that I knew where the weak spots were, and to bring it out in its best possible condition. There are still some marks in the clear-coat in places but I am being very picky! Think I'm used to metallic silver, hides the marks much better. Onwards... next up was a pair of carbon fibre side steps. I really wanted Charge Speed Bottom Line ones but didn't want to part with £1000 for them. So I opted for these regular looking ones from G.R.A.M.S Styling for £250. I have a bit of a plan up sleeve to make them custom at some point. Love this shot.... More to follow inc plenum spacer, rear lights, engine bay bling....
  14. Righto... I know it's been a very long time since I updated this, as I said I don't have much time but there has been stuff going on (mainly buying stuff and it sitting in my garage lol) ! Not sure if this is a good idea or not but I thought about doing a running list of costs along side parts bought. Here's a reminder of the mods that came with the car: - 19" Linea Corse Dyna alloys, I think chrome finish 8.5j ET 15 on the front and 10j ET 20 on the rear £0 - Teins-S springs £0 - Clear rear fog light with LED £0 - LED sidelights £0 - Stubby aerial! £0 So first up I got busy selling up some parts that I didn't want or need: - Zunsport front grill - SOLD for £30 - Decats - SOLD for £40 - OEM Y-pipe - SOLD for £30 - OEM Touring alloys - SOLD for £265 - OEM Exhaust - SOLD for £35 - OEM Mats - SOLD for £30 - OEM Gearknob - SOLD for £15 - OEM springs - given away for £Free Total: £445 I decided to replace the mats, they weren't in bad condition but I just wanted new ones. I came across these on ebay: Made by ambassadorcarmats.co.uk, I asked them to be made similar to the OEM ones. Cost £53.49 inc boot mat. Next up was a new leather gear gaiter £7.45, and second hand MOMO knob £20: It seems that the Azure Blue paintwork is high maintenance and even after using the DA some of the panels were still niggling me so I took the 350 to a chap that knows more about paint than me - 'Detailed by Dale' to have a varied paint correction, wax finish, and ceramic coating on the wheels. Here's the results: The results were stunning. Cost: £399. He advised me to maintain using: - Valet pro PH neutral snow - Valet pro concentrate shampoo - Carpro Reload for drying aid / quick top coat - Fusso Light wax No pressure on me keeping it like that.... That's all for tonight...hopefully I'll bring more updates tomorrow...
  15. Ooh I thought they were just 370z, I will call them to check as they are closer to home. Thanks. Yes, very close to Brum. I booked remap on my Z for tomorrow, multimap + launch control. Make them a ring, ask for Amar. How'd it go??
  16. It's SORN'd at the mo, in bits, was just doing some research ready for in a few months time

  19. Rear lights removed from my 2005 46k 350z. Excellent condition, no chipped corners, includes bulbs and bolt covers. One of the locater tabs has snapped off one of them but it stills fits perfectly well. £70 delivered for the pair.
