Sounds ace, well done. And the bonus is you no longer have to put up with that stupid dip stick!

We have the plugs on the shelf can ship today for Monday, OEM Nissan oil and air filters in stock and HKS air filters.

 

Let me know if we can help

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.

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.

Excellent thanks chaps!

Jon - I'm after new parts on this occasion, but thank you.

Iain.

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.

This video shows you how to use the cruise control buttons to switch between maps after UpRev

 

Check out what this guy set his Map 5 to, very clever, would prevent your car ever getting stolen (unless the thief knows how to change maps)

Is this possible on all models with cruise control do you know ? I thought it was just JDM's?

Stop it! Its not pay day yet, and my SO is against these things lol. Am tempted by front splitter though

Ha! I just caved and bought some new wheel nuts.

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?

That sounds sooooo good. I can't afford it right now either, but here's a free 'bump'!

Booked this today. Obvs have to stay overnight on the 14th and 15th. Anyone recommend a local detailing/valet company as I daresay the 380 will need a good clean with 425 miles between here and there!

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!

Ooh...scratch that then!! :/

Afternoon folks, just had confirmation that we've got the additional five spaces, so you can go ahead and purchase your tickets now

 

Also, I've been informed we'll be allocated the same section (along the far wall) that we occupied last year, which I'm sure those that attended wil agree was a great spot for the club.

 

Happy days.

Thanks for organising Ian

For now the PM is fine mate. I will be publishing a list towards the end of the month and then asking for meal payments.

Good stuff, thank you!

Do we get confirmation of a place or is a PM good enough? Ta.

Very nice mate, similar to mine got it last April with 45k miles...and a rotten W brace!

Squeeze a 16th?

Damn I missed this one

Price drop, £60, I have no idea what these are worth. Any interest?

£399! Bloody hell! You must be very anal about the paintwork haha

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....

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...

Thank you

SVM can remap these also

 

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??

Could try to get on the Horsham group buy?
