Gorbash Posted March 5, 2018 Share Posted March 5, 2018 (edited) I am Z latest Newbie so let me introduce myself. I'm Ian. I've had a few cars over the years but been after a 350z for about 5 years and daim she is awesome Cars in order: VW Golf 3 GS (white, lots of fun), MG ZR 120 (black, has potential), Alfa 147 (red, lemon), Mitsubishi Lancer 2.0 (Silver, fantastic), Mitsubishi Carisma (champagne, banger but surprisingly good engine). And most importantly '04 Nissan 350z (blue)! First off I would like to thank the whole 350z-UK community, since buying my Z two weeks ago I have found this forum to be incredibly helpful. From finding that weird cradle in the center console (without bluetooth adapter) which made me go, what the hell is that lol to finding the solution to the cutting out sub-woofer by replacing the relay in the amp (will go in this weekend). So, keep it up and I'm sure I'll be meeting some of you at a meet in the near future. Here are a couple of pictures from the day I brought her home. Since then I have polished her up with Meguiars ultimate compound which has helped her shine and seemed to keep the snow from settling, to a point hehe. Next I want to get some actual polish but I have not chosen one yet. Have a great day! Edited March 5, 2018 by Gorbash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HEADPHONES Posted March 6, 2018 Share Posted March 6, 2018 The zed is looking mighty fine. Azure blue comes out the best in photos I reckon. I ordered blue originally but switched to sunset orange last minute........often wished I had stuck with blue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorbash Posted March 6, 2018 Author Share Posted March 6, 2018 Thanks for all the welcomes Yes I agree the blue is stunning. Haha I like the orange too, I've got a friend who had an orange 350z which he bought on halloween so he named his car The Pumpkin. I did a vinyl sticker design for him to print and put on the back which said The Pumpkin with an evil grinning pumpkin The paintwork is good for the age but it does show light scuffing which is to be expected, hence why I've started polishing her up.

Gorbash Posted March 8, 2018 Author Share Posted March 8, 2018 I have a few in the pipeline Tein shocks with adjustable dampers. Saw LED lights in the front bumper gills on this forum, I'd like to do the same. Been looking at body kits, the front/rear could look more aggressive. Definitely better tyres, probably Falken. And I'll be getting into the engine for a service, make sure I have Iridium spark plugs and do a clean etc. Blue HT leads would look good too. Hmm, anyone know about lowering the drivers seat at all? I'm tall and JUST fit lol leg room is great, just my head Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I first saw the LED strips, I thought they looked cheap but I'm liking them more and more every time I see them . What type of kit are thinking for the body? Unable to help with the seat height I'm afraid...I'm not tall enough for that problem haha. I'm sure someone will be able to give you a hand.
