Destination Anglesey - Sunday 31st March
Buptaboy replied to davey_83's topic in National Events & Shows
I'm going to find a way to make it to this. I missed the north Wales drive out last year so I have to make this one! -
I'm up for the Ace cafe again, I went with the small group in 2022 and was my first time visiting this iconic location and my first club meet! What I've noticed since becoming an owner and joining the (many) groups, and I hope may help, is the community seems to be more focused/reliant on Facebook 🙄 for event info. Where I see posts on the official 350Z&370Z club group asking about shows/meets etc I have been trying to direct people to the forum as it is a better structured source for organising and keeping track. I'm happy to share links to the FB group back to here for events like this if that helps? Might be worth running a poll to find out how much interest there would be for ace cafe meet before committing to something with the venue though.

I posted twice as I think clacksonator must've posted same time as me and can't delete my original post 🤦♂️ 🤣

Do we think we'll actually get our show guide & £99 meguirs kit!? 🤣

Anyone have a wire map/diagram for the 370z Bose system? Also, my plan is to take the audio out feed from the head unit to supply the aftermarket to bypass the Bose amp but would I need to use the audio out wires to then supply from the aftermarket amp to the new speakers?

I know it’s 3 years since last post on this topic, but are any more in the pipeline? Would be after a Nismo one if possible. Someone else is asking on the FB selling page too. -
Any idea of the actual size? I'm assuming not 6.5" and more 4/5"?

Hi all, I've had a scroll through to find a post that details the OEM audio setup for the V2 Nismo but have been unsuccessful in finding the info I'm looking for. I'm also @*!# at the internet in general so can't find anything that I'm looking for. Before I go ahead and rip Nismo's innards out, can anyone confirm the standard setup on these? There are definitely rear speakers somewhere as the fader setting sends sound to the rear and it's noticeable. I kind of want to know what there is there to organise upgrades to just install while she's in pieces so I don't have to upset her twice. If nobody has the info I'm looking for then I will document and post here my finding and progress ☺️

Hi all, bought a set of led strips to put in at the rear of the car, just wondering if anyone knew the best spot to tap the wires to come on when starting the car? Thinking maybe the Bose amp behind the seats??

Nifty City Apple Car Play System - Install & Review
Buptaboy replied to davidv10's topic in I.C.E & Electronics
Thanks for your reply! I ordered it last week so hopefully it will be here in the next couple of weeks! One last question, does it bypass/remove the existing USB in the arm rest? I only need to use it for charging and plan to put a false bottom with a wireless charger. Thanks! -
Anyone know where I can get the black badges with Nissan in red? I've only seen them on Bob's 370Z and he thinks he got them from work but they're not on Tarmac's site and I can't find them online anywhere. Thanks!

Nifty City Apple Car Play System - Install & Review
Buptaboy replied to davidv10's topic in I.C.E & Electronics
I've been looking at this upgrade for a while, seems I should've taken the plunge sooner as the price has now gone up! £566 not including import tax of £102.20!! A couple of questions: 1) Is this the only option like this on the market without going for the incredibly expensive route of brainiac/aftermarket custom install? (You know, because I stupidly have a V2 Nismo that has the integrated AC controls so that you can't just switch out the headunit! 🤦♂️) I've googled quite a bit but don't seem to find anything remotely like this from anywhere else! 2) Were you charged import tax? 3) Is there any connectivity outlets for dropping in aftermarket amplifiers to upgrade the speaker components? Thanks! -

As far as I know, no diff service. Service history was all from Nissan dealer but only oil and filter changes.

Hi all, I spent a short amount of time with Bob at Tarmac Sportz a while back and he advised of some bits I need to look into getting done to preserve my 370. One of these was the diff oil change/service. Can anyone recommend a garage local to cambridgeshire to get this done as I have seen some posts through a FB group that have said some garages have had difficulty completing the job. I am also planning on getting the clutch fluid changed and the auxiliary(?) belt on the front of the engine done at the same time, but is there anything else any of you would recommend checking over or getting serviced at the same time? Car is on 50k miles. Thanks!

I tried doing an album last night and managed to get 4 photos uploaded. Even after converting the files they are mainly around 2mb so too big to upload as the limit is 1024kb!?

Thanks for the welcomes! Got the short tails fitted yesterday and loving the new exhaust notes! Having spoken to Bob at Tarmac Sportz and gaining some valuable maintenance awareness looks like the next job is part maintenance but also mod which will be a single mass clutch. Gear box and diff oil at the same time too.
