Adrian@TORQEN Posted July 29, 2015 Share Posted July 29, 2015 (edited) Nice looking zed, George! Always loved the v1 Nismo bodykit on 350z and the red makes it even nicer! Plenum and Popcharger in stock if you need them soon. Perhaps is worth considering a 07 bonnet in the future and the 07 bi-xenons, they are so much better.

GeorgeW Posted July 29, 2015 Author Share Posted July 29, 2015 Cheers Yes I have clocked the plenum and pop charger, but with buying the car and a good few hundred quid on upgrades and cleaning products, they may be next month! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeorgeW Posted July 30, 2015 Author Share Posted July 30, 2015 Cheers guys, the stubby arrived today which I forgot I ordered, looks much tidier than the other one, planning to fit the pioneer head unit tonight - tested last night and all works well, even with the lack of bass (thanks Bose) so it will go in for good tonight, which means so will the footwell neons, I'll get a photo up when it's complete Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeorgeW Posted August 2, 2015 Author Share Posted August 2, 2015 Found time to put the duct on - I now understand why people hesitate, cutting the bumper was nerve wracking! Before and after: 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeorgeW Posted August 9, 2015 Author Share Posted August 9, 2015 Got the eyelids painted and stuck on, also the new plates are on - a lot slicker. Sprayed the badges matt black as the chrome was pitting badly, just wouldn't clean up at all! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Masa Posted August 9, 2015 Share Posted August 9, 2015 Cheltenham, there was one parked near my work which was nearly identical! Same scoop, badges, wheels, colour, body kit, everything!

martybhoy Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Great looking zed but that grill on the front has to be black. I do enjoy the black and red combo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeorgeW Posted August 13, 2015 Author Share Posted August 13, 2015 I was thinking the same thing the other day, I think I'm going to change it to black soon, one question though, would you just do the grill, or go straight down so the grill length of the splitter is black as well? I quite like that look on some cars, but it would probably look crap on a flat splitter? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well at least my memory is telling me that! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk It could have been me? My Z looks similar, although not with cool wheels and Scoop like GeorgeW. But I do live in Cheltenham and work in Glos with a Red Z. There are quite a few Z's in Cheltenham I have seen recently. Ah, no that wouldn't have been me, but sounds like that guy has dam good style (Assuming its me) Yeah I have dam good style! Very nice Z fella, the Red looks really good.

Mj86 Posted December 27, 2015 Share Posted December 27, 2015 Wait a min... I have see that number plate somewhere... Someone contacted me in email (god know how, I swears it wasn't in autotrader or pistonhead), but he knew I was looking for 350z and he was trying to sell me exactly the same car you got... May I ask where did you purchase the car and who you bought it off...? It wasn't guy who working on oil rig? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeorgeW Posted January 7, 2016 Author Share Posted January 7, 2016 I bought it from eBay, a chap near Shrewsbury who imports American classics, selling through business for a mate, all checked out with paperwork, mileage etc so I went for it, a good price I thought. So heres a couple of recent photos 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
