    The extra oil bottle came in after I sold up in 2008. So I wouldn't like to comment as anything I say wouldn't be with the benefit of experience. Denison ice link is a common choice for ipod I'm trying for the life of me to remember the set up I had. It involved dropping the HU out and fitting in a connector block in what on the OEM set up was the connection of a midi-disc player. And then running the cable through to the armrest cubby.

    Finally! Someone see's what I've been ranting about all this time! I owned mine for 4 years from new, and it never missed a beat in 45,000 miles. If you have any questions Dan ask me or George. We both pretty much wrote the ownership book on the ownersclub!
  3. don't really understand about wheel sizing and stuff Read here: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/56720-wheel-offsets-for-dummies/
  4. Check the battery.....It's just about the easiest thing you can do. Are you friends with anyone from the forum? Are they local? Go round their place, stick their battery on your car and see what happens (this would save you going and buying a new one until you're sure).
  5. Sounds like a drain on the battery somewhere. Zeds do crazy things with shafted or dying batteries. If all worked well with a fully charged battery, but then overnight battery drains and causes issues again next day.
  6. And where exactly in that quote does it say wheels made in China are rubbish?
  7. You need to ensure PCD, stud #, offset (et) and wheel width are all ok for the 350z. Buying off eBay isn't an issue. And despite what Will says above, the majority of wheels are made in China or Taiwan, or any other number of countries that people make fun of. It doesn't mean they are crap. Pisses me off when people over generalise like that. Casual racism at it's most convenient.
  8. Obviously try the usual places = Pistonheads, Autotrader, etc etc. £10-£12k would see you right depending on colour, mods, miles.
  9. Have a word with Ewen at Clark Motorsport, or Mark @ Abbey Motorsport, or CS, or any of various other traders here.
  10. NOTE: You need to enter the forum on a proper browser and not Tapatalk to be able to see the Poll options above Voting will close on Feb 28th. Good luck to all who entered Entry 1. "demon z" Entry 2 "pallett" Thought id add some competition Nismo spats and spoiler, veilside lip, 5zigen wheels, buddyclub pro spec 3 etcetc Entry 3 "rothers2901" Entry 3 "grundy225"
  11. Car is going into limp mode. You'll need to read the ECU code to find out what's caused it. It could be any number of things.
  12. Wish I'd spotted this earlier, I have a pioneer HU I am trying to offload you could have had for £25 plus postage!
  13. If you got shot of those horrid USDM option back lights, this car would be so much better.
  14. I'll be tugging all evening.....
  15. Nice looking car Jay, and I'm sure you enjoy it. For me, I just can't bring myself to part with money on a US muscle car if it isn't a V8. But I totally understand your reasons re insurance etc. Monkfish Performance do some nice upgrades for them too
  16. Regarding the above link....... It's fine to direct to it, but no-one start posting pics from there on here, or start linking to specific posts from it etc. Family friendly here and all that
  17. Good response guys thanks. If those who have already entered could send me links to anymore pics they want adding then do so before tomorrow afternoon. Other members are gonna be voting for your car, so if it's only a squiffy shot of the rear quarter you have entered, then you might lose votes.

  19. Yep will do. Although you will not be able to park on Millenium Place with the other cars due to limited space and reserved for 300zx cars only. There is a public car park right next to the venue though which is only £3 a day. I'll post proper details up nearer the time.
  20. Afternoon folks. As well as my work here, I am also NEO over on 300zx.co.uk. 2014 marks the 25th anniversary of the 300zx going on sale. As such we over at 300zx.co.uk have arranged for a large gathering of cars at Coventry Transport Museum on July 19th 2014. As part of it, I intend to have a "Zeds through the ages" display. As such I need some volunteers from here. I am looking for the following: 350z coupe (already reserved for someone, but they may drop out) 350z roadster 370z coupe 370z roadster. You would need to be available from 0900-1630 on the day in question. Your car needs to be externally as stock as possible but in excellent condition (aftermarket wheels/exhaust are ok). I don't need 100% commitment just yet, but come Easter I will be asking for you to commit. Please don't be offended if you volunteer and are not chosen.
  21. UpRev is the brand name of the method used in the UK to remap the standard ECU. It can be done at a limited number of garages in the UK (most of which are traders here). As Will says, do some reading up. There's even a Sticky topic on it somewhere
  22. I'm am so overwhelmed with entries..... 2 days guys.....otherwise it won't be run again.
