g60luke Posted February 13, 2016 Share Posted February 13, 2016 Hi all, About a year ago on my birthday I was on a plane to Newcastle to fetch this new member to the family. Was a bit of a gamble as I had a one way ticket and never seen it! What was the worst that could happen right! It was a 1 prev owner car and the current owner worked for Nissan and was moving to Russia with his job... Asked LOADS of questions and had pics sent and decided to go for it... So a flight from Cardiff to Newcastle was booked.. So as a treat to myself I spent some time with Zeddy on his 1st birthday with me and took some pics! Its number 116 of 370Z in Quartz which I think really suits the car..... but maybe I am biased [url="http://s637.photobucket.com/user/g60luke/media/20160213_152553_zpsr4fhl3vp.jpg.html"][img]http://i637.photobucket.com/albums/uu91/g60luke/20160213_152553_zpsr4fhl3vp.jpg[/img][/url] [url="http://s637.photobucket.com/user/g60luke/media/20160213_152613_zpsgkuwg66j.jpg.html"][img]http://i637.photobucket.com/albums/uu91/g60luke/20160213_152613_zpsgkuwg66j.jpg[/img][/url] [url="http://s637.photobucket.com/user/g60luke/media/20160213_152625_zpsiysv5b7h.jpg.html"][img]http://i637.photobucket.com/albums/uu91/g60luke/20160213_152625_zpsiysv5b7h.jpg[/img][/url] [url="http://s637.photobucket.com/user/g60luke/media/20160213_152641_zpsvkq9wop3.jpg.html"][img]http://i637.photobucket.com/albums/uu91/g60luke/20160213_152641_zpsvkq9wop3.jpg[/img][/url] 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g60luke Posted February 13, 2016 Author Share Posted February 13, 2016 Mods since I got it: Initial thoughts when I had it were that it needed better tyres and it was a little to quiet! 1. Ditched the dreadful Bridgestones that were hard and unresponsive in the cold! 2. Installed a Stillen Gen3 long intake (What a difference!) 3. Fitted Berk HFCs and Invidia full system (sounds like it should!) Had it a year now and it has been faultless and unlike most cars still makes me want to drive it [URL=http://s637.photobucket.com/user/g60luke/media/20160213_152630_zpsa5j6xv1n.jpg.html][IMG]http://i637.photobucket.com/albums/uu91/g60luke/20160213_152630_zpsa5j6xv1n.jpg[/IMG][/URL] [URL=http://s637.photobucket.com/user/g60luke/media/20160213_152709_zps6lwo4r7r.jpg.html][IMG]http://i637.photobucket.com/albums/uu91/g60luke/20160213_152709_zps6lwo4r7r.jpg[/IMG][/URL] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeorgeW Posted February 15, 2016 Share Posted February 15, 2016 i love the 370z, I remember when they first came out myself and my dad went to go have a nose at one at a garage whilst the girls were shopping, I was 18 and remembered the quality feel to the interior even now!
