leebar Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 Quite sure it was a roadster. And yes it has the controls. It is a GT pask roadster if that makes any difference... I havent really had chance to go over an 06 roadster in fine detail before, so I took my opportunity whilst waiting for my lift to work. It was a blade, 06 model roadster, and it had the phone controls. Dont know about bluetooth, but the controls were there alright. My MY06 roadster has the GT pack but not phone bits, if it was blade could it have been a earlier model late registered (no blade for MY06 just the lovely new Universal Silver!!)

Chesterfield Posted July 28, 2006 Share Posted July 28, 2006 It was an 06 model. It had the new centre console layout (kitchen cabinet style roller shutter part). It was silver, didn't know they had changed the name from blade though. It most certainly had the phone controls. Honest! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alanreece Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 Monterey blue 06 350z coupe delivered last friday. couldn't get much sense out of 2 different dealerships re cradle looking object in centre console comp/t. suggested I needed a cradle to put in it according to make/model of mobile. Nearly cracked me up this week not being able to use my new toys (and be limited to 4000 revs for 2000 miles!). SORTED !!!!!! found MJP (Eastern Auto) on the net. Bought bluetooth adapter ke283-cdbto £85 plus vat............arrived today .........its not a cradle but it does slip straight into the cradle as described above. Turned ign't'n to acc and it became active(led lit up) Asked my nokia 6234 to search for devices and it displayed NISSAN350Z ! The display on the audio unit changed from the details of the blues tape I was playing to show MOBILEPHONE. To test I manually dialled my wife and she replied. The sound came through the audio speakers and I increased/ decr'd using up/down buttons on steering wheel. When I get time to read the manual I've no doubt I will be able to use voice commands to dial out totally hands free. So I conclude....06 model is bluetooth integrated but does not ship with the final piece of equipment necessary to use it. The part I have bought is also clearly marked as a piece of nissan equipment. I am delighted with having looked MJP over as I could not see a way forward and nissan salesman don't know sweet f a about their 350zed's in comparison to the pet heads that drive them. I hope this is some use to someone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest prescience Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 Mate, I'm glad you're pleased but this should have been yours without paying - please see the thread above. This should've been supplied FOC by your dealer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So Val and me are right Has Azure changed to Monterey Pretty sure the run in period is 1200 miles not 2000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gus Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 Even the 1200 is conservative. A mixture of driving styles is better than say a steady few hundred miles at a constant mway speed. Don't be afraid to red-line once over about 500 miles - it's good for the engine ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just bear that in mind the next time you need Nissan parts...... I've got one in my 04 and it works fine!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M13KYF Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 Yeah a bit unlucky there. You can get them for £100 through the forum. (all in) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
