AlperK Posted January 12 Share Posted January 12 (edited) Hi everyone, I bought my first 350Z last year and thought it was time to join the community and say hello! The car had 66k miles when I picked it up and is completely stock for now. I’m based in Northern Ireland and have some upgrades planned soon, including: • Replacing the rusty exhaust system with an Invidia Gemini Cat-back and Torqen HF Cats • Replacing the noisy release bearing with the clutch. Still debating whether to replace the flywheel at the same time – any advice? • Possibly getting a tune after the exhaust upgrade – considering UpRev. I’ve also done a few updates already: • Replaced the boot struts with new ones from SGS Engineering (thanks to Markus!) as the originals couldn’t handle the heavy wing anymore. • Swapped the OEM intake pipes for ISR Racing ones. I’d love to hear your thoughts on these mods and any recommendations for an NI-based mechanic who could take good care of the car. Looking forward to learning from you all and sharing my journey!

Olly350z Posted Friday at 09:54 Share Posted Friday at 09:54 Nice looking Z there pal, bit of a special one with the factory Nismo kit? Gallery Gaskets would be another consideration if you've not thought about it already Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HEADPHONES Posted Sunday at 22:26 Share Posted Sunday at 22:26 A very tidy and classy looking Zed you have acquired. Hope you can attend some of our meets. I so regret not participating more iny younger years. I used to be put off by the long drive to some of these, but if you have a local member also attending, you get the added benefit of a mini convoy and pre meet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
