  1. I'm no mechanic but happy to give this a look over for anyone.

     

    I've seen it a few times and can confirm it's very nice indeed.

     

    It's a good price for this car!

     

    Thanks Stew and Nixy, and everyone else who's had good things to say.

    Sent it round work today and a mates mailing list and the compliments coming back aren't helping me get in the right frame of mind for selling!!!

  2. Soul destroying having to sell such a nice car. Looks really good, best of luck.

     

    :drive1

     

    Tell me about it, its taken months to get the head to rule the heart on this one. The whole ownership experience from buying from a previous forum member to now probably wouldn't have been the same without the guys on this forum. Its probably even more soul destroying having it and not getting the use out of it.

  3. god damn if only this was lower mileage and uk car :/

     

    am i correct in saying this is limited to 112mph?

     

    What's stopping you buying a JDM? I've had this over 18 months, and not encountered a single issue that would ever put me off buying JDM again. Its had the full SVA, UK spec rear bumper, interior and Brembos, was imported way before the road tax changes and is the exact same price to insure as a UK spec, I checked this when I was interested in a UK car on here a while back.

    I believe it was derestricted by a previous owner, it def does over 112mph, on a private road ofcourse.

  4. Been going over this in my head for a few months now as I'm just not getting the use of the car at all and its turning into an expensive pavement ornament. The heart has ruled the head for long enough and it pains me to do this but the Z is up for sale.

    Rear 350Z badge to replace Fairlady

     

     

    The owner before me replaced JDM spec bumpers with UK spec, interior (centre console, dash, dials, door cards with UK spec interior). Brembo's fitted, 18" Rays, JVC DVD CD headunit with flatscreen and reverse camera, integrated fog light, LED rear light upgrade, private reg.

    I've fitted the ESR y-pipe + exhaust, clear rear lenses and front indicators, Nismo replica front splitter and rear spats, headlight conversion by Paul T, window tints, medium smoke on rears, light smoke on fronts, Eibach 20mm spacers, custom coloured Rays alloys (anthracite centre, polished lip), Red Stuff brake pads fitted at last service.

     

    Bodywork is in excellent condition, usual stone chips on the bumper, 4cm black mark on passenger door where some clever clogs in a car park has swung the door open, not a dent just a scratch. Wheels refurbed 6 weeks ago so absolutely spotless. Electric windows, mirrors, air conditioning, traction control, height adjustable drivers seat.

     

    Current mileage - 68k miles - next service due at 73k miles.

    Car is located in Aberdeen, i'm sure any of the Abz members here would be happy to give an inspection for anyone interested.

     

    Last road tax was £185 for 12 months, and I'm £495 to insure (26 years old with 4 years NCB) with Directline, so the myths about JDM's being more expensive are wide of the mark. I have tried to use 97-99 RON petrol, as recommended by Nissan and weather permitting has been cleaned weekly and bi-waxed monthly.

     

    No doubt i've left something out so PM me any questions.

     

    £10,000

  5. Guys, with deep regret I'm going to have to pull out of Sunday. Works offered me overtime and I really cant pass up the extra bucks right now.

    Apologies, have a great day out.

    Very disappointing :thumbdown: My wife is in bed with a trapped nerve in her back.

    Now I have more reason to default Sunday!! But I am nieve to the world of "OVERTIME"

    & make do with sacrifices I have to contend with to make ends meet.

    It will certainly be your loss, as everybody else will make the effort.

    As the start Post stated let's meet our Jockland cousins, low & behold Stew & John are the only two that can make it POOR SHOW!!!!

     

    :drive1

     

    Is this for real? In the grand scheme of things my work takes priority over a club meet i'm afraid, and i dont expect to be flamed for it. I've done my fair share of meets in the past and its with regret I miss this one.

  6. +1 same here. Cant get hold of any clients, everyone in the office seem to disappear for an hour in the morning for a bacon roll, 2 hours for lunch and the beers get popped open around 4pm. Its an easy days wage but I'd still rather have the day/afternoon off.

  7. Before you move out Nixy i think you should have a 350z-uk.com party there, about a 100 zeds should do the trick parked all over the place and a very noisy departure at 3 am in the morning :lol:

     

    Yeh, call it the 'Bungs out K1 party' :band:

     

    Oooooh can I come? I've had mine out 24 hours (longest time i've ever had them out) and take back everything I said about prefering them in!

     

    While we're ranting about neighbours, the guy above me is THE worst. Works offshore, so I get 2 weeks blissful peace then two weeks of HARD HOUSE 24/7. This guy must wake up to Trance Nation and go to bed with Bonkers, stereo turned up to 11, clomping of heels, smoking on the stairwell outside my door, i've even had them blow smoke into the flat. But nothing will top the gift on the first floor landing one Sunday a couple months ago. 5am my buzzer goes..... "Aye, its 2nd floor, let me in". "F** off" I replied as I slammed the receiver down. Could hear next doors buzzer then go, then a couple minutes later the flat door slams shut and footsteps up the stairs. I managed to get to sleep. Wake up and quite fancy a fry up before settling in for the grand prix, so i get ready and head to the shops. Open the front door and there is a rather large sh1t and a wet patch on the landing outside the flat next to me. My girlfriend has 2 cats at home and swears blind no cat could produce a present that large! So i write a note, post it to the other 7 flats, shut the door till after 3pm and hope when i open again, its gone......... It wasn't! He's also kicked his own flat door down cos he was locked out.
