glrnet Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 Are there people out there who will buy a decent price for a ready made? Unlikely but worth a go, would save me alot of hard work stripping it & someone else alot of cash & hard work building it. That is such a shame. It'll be worth it Peter..............

4RE Leather Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 Well I can't keep it forever and its almost completed. Just need the pod guages wired in, Hel brake lines put on And some decent meathod of breathing like a double Viper kit and its project over. Only every did it as it's the 1st time in my life I have seen something through to the end. Been a rough old road at times but some enjoyable moments and great people. Even the argumentative ones:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darren-B Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 Is it a revup facelift car? No DE with facelift lights 17k ouch. If someone were in the market to buy a 350z, with the cosmetic & mechanical condition that mine is, with the intention to modify it with all that is on my car even with used parts would cost well in excess of 20k. I don`t expect to sell the car as it is but what better place to go put the feelers out & also to get wind of any possible purchasers of the parts You may know before others Like it, can we do a magazine shoot :excited: The next car will again stay fairly stock looking on the exterior so not likely to make it into a magazine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ekona Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 One of my favourite cars on the forum, that. Deserves to go to a good home in one piece, and whilst I'm normally the first to say that no car is worth more because of the mods, I'd have to say that this one is worth every penny of that. Cracking car, cracking value, just wish I had the cash spare really as otherwise I'd genuinely have been interested. Good luck with the sale matey 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy james Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 The car is a bargain at that price. I've spent way more than that modding mine and Darren is throwing in a free car!!! Good luck mate in whatever you do next. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darren-B Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 I`ve had it for coming upto 6years, If I ever treated any of the women in my life (except my mum) half as well as I`ve treated that car I`d have been a very well kept man by now, but hey the Zed comes first! this is why I`m single I wouldn`t want to add up all the receipts I have for even the consumable service items let alone anything else I change ALL fluids every winter, engine oil every 2-3k, remove the discs & calipers for cleaning, even clean the underside of it on a regular basis & it lives under a soft cover in the garage. My mates say I have issues, but I just like to look after the car & return it has looked after me, 75k on the clock & still drives & looks great, never used a drip of oil or missed a beat apart from a clutch slave cylinder, oil dipstick & recently a battery. Why am I selling up again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has always been run on Shell V-power, only the best oils, fluids & cleaning products are used. The reliability of the car has been impeccable, other than consumable items such as tyres & brakes the car has been perfect, has never used a drop of oil between services, the only issues I`ve had are: the clutch slave cylinder failed in 2009 & was replaced with a genuine Nissan part & the stock battery failed in July 2013 & replaced with an EXIDE premium battery. The car is in A1 condition & I have a huge folder full of receipts for all modifications & consumable parts I`ve had it for nearly 6years & it`s time for me to move on to the next exciting Z-car build. open to reasonable offers & any unwanted parts can be replaced with OEM All OEM parts are available @ an extra cost Maybe I should start a proper For sale Thread Edited September 8, 2013 by Darren-B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coldel Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 Good luck with the sale mate - glad I had the pleasure of following this car through the country lanes of Kent recently. There is a buyer out there for it somewhere at that price, worth having a go like you say to see if they find it, I did and sold mine within a couple of weeks at the asking price after being told it was overpriced and would never sell and that I should strip it.

Ebized Posted September 9, 2013 Share Posted September 9, 2013 Good luck with the sale Darren - and no question that your car has to be one of the best modded and looked after 350's on the forum - someone could get themselves something very special if they have the budget.
