This was taken just before Misha off of the Nurburgring took it round the track

If be tempted with the contis, they have five better in some reviews, the reason the mp4s get so much press is they pay YouTubers a fortune to promote them, I'm not saying they don't deserve the praise, they just get too much, the contis and f1s are as good and are better in some situations.

These cars are tested for normal driving in death valley coping system is up to the job, they are not ragged in death valley and oil cooling system is not up to the job, oil cooler first.

Yea still cheaper than my spend and I'm guessing it wouldn't take a year to sort it out after failed parts from multiple companies ( it's had one new clutch and flywheel and 4, yes 4 clutch slaves

You do it want to know what I have spent on sorting out clutch slave issues on my car, actually I don't want to know what I've spent on them, auto would of been much cheaper!

ive had a busy week or two with this car... Was heading to Caffeine and Machine to watch The Smoking Tire do a podcast, floored it to get onto motorway and alternator left the chat, limped it home, then jumped in my mate hybrid corolla to make the journey...ugh. The following Monday a denso alternator landed on my doorstep so work commenced, Fitting alternators on 370z's is not that fun, you have do remove a fair bit to get to it, rad fans, coolant hoses and a few more bits, when that was done and car was in the air i thought i would fit the whiteline diff bushes that i have has sat on my shelf for a couple of months, not the worst job in the world but that diff is heavy, getting it back in on your own is a mission, anyway, the bushes in the ears are nice and easy, just hammer out and chuck new ones in the main bush in subframe takes some getting out, a recip saw and drill had it out with only mild swearing, fitting the new one was pretty easy as long as you have some diff removal tools, you will be able to make it work. Quick tip dont try to undo the abs sensors from diff case instead of unplugging them... one undid then the second sheared off, this was all the excuse i needed to jump on Z1's website and order their rear diff cover, 2 days later that was on and filled with two l litres of motuls finest and diff was back on, along with lots of swearing as i lifted that thing back home. The diff bushes are a must have mod, my car has about 88k on clock and the bushes really tightened up the back end, even the wife said that the car felt more stable as a passenger. so now car was in the air and exhaust was off so in went the radium surge tank set up i purchased from Torqen about 4 months ago, not an awful job but not much fun as you are kinda playing with fire if anything went wrong, instructions are great but designed for lhd cars, that all done, the car sounds amazing when you turn ignition on as the aem and walbro fuel pump kick on, now i should have no more fuel starvation on trackdays. i had one more thing to fit and that was a pedal commander i picked up on ebay for 99p, now i fitted this as i wanted a bit less throttle response, anyone who has done brands hatch in the wet will know how delicately you need to make inputs, this made a massive difference and for 99p cant complain would i spend 200 quid on one.. probably not

Unless after every drive you clean dy and protect your wheels you will want to get them re lacquered or they will start to go furry, it doesn't take much moisture to get aluminium to corrode

I Need to stop hoarding so have a few bits for sale. My Mac decided it doesn't like the pound sign so apologies Kinetix decats. These came on a exhaust sytem i purchased but already running cobra HFC's so no need for these, they wil work on 370z and 350z with HR .100 plus postage at cost https://www.tarmacsportz.co.uk/kinetix-racing-nissan-350z-vq35hr-07-09-370z-09-test-pipe-set.html?gclid=CjwKCAjw-7OlBhB8EiwAnoOEk0RcyY70BAhwKYEJgnxUn60kPC4m2bemFoSMXuC5n5vYFxcFwlNiKxoCV_UQAvD_BwE Vibratechnics comp engine mounts. These are new but have recieved some marks from storage, really lovely things i have the vibratechnics gearbox mount and its a really nice upgrade so can only imagine these will further improve things. They are just sat there but still may fit them if i get the urge so be quick! 200 plus postage https://www.vibra-technics.co.uk/nissan/370z/682/NIS302MX/engine_mount cobra (?) Y Pipe was told this was a cobra y pipe , really nicely made since going true duel i have no use. looks pretty new, great condition. will fit 350z and 370z with HR engine. 150 plus postage Cobra Sprint x , Xl bucket seat with 370z subframe. This expires at the end of the year so not ideal if you want it for competitive use, great seat has some signs of wear, xl so comfortable for everyone, comes attached to subframe with seatbelt so its a simple job to install, will need a resistor for airbag to keep the light off. 300 collected can get more pics if needed

Since i bought my 370z ive had a weird rough idle when warm, the car seems to hunt and volts jump around, been trying to find the soloution and it seems to be the Evap control valve nissan P/N 14930-JK20E ive done a quick video, excuse the long bit of nothingness, first time using new software, still learning!

You know I want the z1 supercharger

Thought i would start a thread for my car partly to keep myself up to date with what ive done to it! I purchased the car in January of 2022 as a bit of a birthday present to myself, the most expensive car i have bought, and i thought i bought a good one with all the importants bits done, mainly the clutch and slave, they put the old slave in, this has cost me thousands but im persevering! so the spec list last updated 5th July 2023 its had a fair bit done to it, hopefully i have run out of things to do!

Put a video of the smoke up and then some people on here who know what they are talking about should hopefully be able to say if you are worrying for nothing. Also lots of us have spares rattling around in sheds if you need something don't be afraid to ask on here a member may be glad to get the space back and help keep another z on the road. Hope it all goes well!

Nur has nothing to do with the car its all driver, especially on TF

I removed my single mass flywheel last year and went back to a dual, it's more money for a dual but it's a better day to day experience

What crank sensor did you use?

Cheers. Yea but annoying less annoying than the coolerworx but still a pita. My car is stuff I have a vibratechnics trans mount and z1 subframe inserts they really stiffen up the car

I did a little video on installing an irp shifter on my 370, be gentle, making YouTube videos is a bit daunting oh and if you could like and subscribe that would be super. Thanks! https://youtu.be/M3L17YbEe3Y

I've had cars with failed crank sensors that cut out and won't start for about 10 minutes, maybe an area to check

the owners would not bother me too much, covid may of had an effect on things, these things are pretty tough, do you due diligence and if all checks out buy and enjoy

I saw the first 10 minutes the when that bloke said his was the fastest convertible in Europe or something along those lines I couldn't face anymore

White, always white, I have black it's a crappy black and a tiny bit of dirt makes it look filthy

Hopefully I can get an early look at this, actually looks decent

If it works it works but it is still alkaline so will degrade lsp over time, will take a lot of dilution to bring ph level back down.

Id avoid using a tfr unless it's part of a reset wash as it can remove any protection you may have on the car

Just trying to work out some annoying bugs at moment
