Ekona Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 That car is hideous as it stands, so whatever you do to it can only improve it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
veilside z Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 you have a good chassis to build to mate. welcome, look around and get the car to how you want it. anything you replace you can always sell on . not many reds around. the car used to be plated 2 sxy.

vincenzo350 Posted May 4, 2012 Author Share Posted May 4, 2012 I've had my eyes set on the Shine Spec N2 since I bought the car, not a fan of the ibherdesign venom. The shine n2 from Tarmacsportz - good quality? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stew Posted May 4, 2012 Share Posted May 4, 2012 Shine is usually good quality. Tarmac will look after you too. I personally don't think any bumper will match up to the venom kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bounty Bar Kid Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 Hi & to the forum. The sooner you get that monstrosity off the front the better. +1 and in my opinion, sort out the single exhaust. Double is better! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRF4N Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 That's a famous zed in the uk for the wrong reasons. You will become a forum legend if you rescue it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vincenzo350 Posted May 5, 2012 Author Share Posted May 5, 2012 Intrigued by the wrong reasons comment... the engine and the core of the car seems ok, unless there's something I'm unaware of (which wouldn't be surprising, given how infamous the zed seems to be!). I'm working on the car as a slow project, what with work taking up alot of time. Anyone near South East London know of any good bodyshop places (spraying, fitting bodykits, the whole lot)?

vincenzo350 Posted May 5, 2012 Author Share Posted May 5, 2012 http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/NISSAN-350Z-0 ... 785wt_1163 price seems low... too good to be true? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might well fit like a glove but I very much doubt it. I think any money you save with buying will be eaten up with fitting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vincenzo350 Posted May 5, 2012 Author Share Posted May 5, 2012 Hmm, thats a popular opinion around here and rightly so.. Anyone had any experience ordering from unique dynamics? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRF4N Posted May 5, 2012 Share Posted May 5, 2012 Intrigued by the wrong reasons commen The bodykit is the wrong reason mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vincenzo350 Posted May 5, 2012 Author Share Posted May 5, 2012 Intrigued by the wrong reasons commen The bodykit is the wrong reason mate Thats kind of a relief lol. I thought there was something fundamentally wrong with the car I might not know about. Took it to Nissan mechanic who works in Croydon (regular at one of my uncles restaurants). Gave the engine, clutch, gearbox etc. thumbs up so hopefully once I get working on the body, things will finally be looking up for this tart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vincenzo350 Posted May 5, 2012 Author Share Posted May 5, 2012 I seem to read good things about EPR Racing. All their aero kits seem to be around the £500 mark. Am I right in assuming thats front bumper, rear bumper and side skirts? good quality? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

barryrob78 Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 Sorry but its quite an ugly wee duckling at the moment, like the other guys said once you put your mark on it and give it the kiss of life you'll have a cracking individual zed that you'll no doubt be proud of! Having Chilli Red as a starting point you can't go wrong...very rare...and fastest! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BulletMagnet Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 One request I would like to make. After removing the old kit, could you make a video of it being burnt, thrown in a woodchipper, squashed by a 2 ton press, just so we can make sure that the abomination is truly dead and will not roam the planet again. Thank you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
