Who owns a 350z/370z?

[NathWraith]

In a similar theme to the Clio/vtec thread I have decided we need a 350z/370z one

A lot of guys on here have 350z's so we can use this thread to chat about them, included 370z's as well but not sure if anyone on here has one!

A pic to start the thread from the day I picked her up

Why is a ginger child trying to steal your numberplate?

LOL that is gibbo, not sure what he was doing tbh.

Is someone trying to steal your numberplate? I'll get some photos up of mine when I can find any.

Will be spending next weekend pulling the dash of to wrap the centre console, swap iPhone cable for composite one so I can mirror my iPhone tomtom onto my head-unit!

Is yours standard or done any engine/interior/exterior mods?

Looks nice. Im not an owner, but ill be watching this thread

Ive always liked 350's, and they are becoming pretty cheap too.

Just an 04 GT, no mods as of yet, first one I think will be a Nismo Carbon gearknob as the current one is quite tatty.

I expect i will be buying many things from this site over the next year though

Mine after her first wash. Had her for about a month now.

Needs a few things doing to it. Front bumper and bonnet could do with a re-spray due to stone chips.

New Stereo as the Bose one is **** and decided when it wants to work right

Also some ray alloys would be a bonus.

Let the money pit begin

PS. sorry for rubbish pick as it was on my phone

Well picked her up yesterday. What a beast this thing is!

2008 GT - its in great condition and had the bluetooth module too which is nice - although im not sure if it is standard.



You can see my beloved celica in the background will try running both for now. Think i need to get a car with 4 seats now!

Mine from the day I picked it up:

07 GT with Nav/ bluetooth

The colour I want it to be:

Colour only, not the rest of the carp

You won't be able to stop! I've done a few things to mine since last April and the previous owner had a couple of things that I wanted already done:

UpRev remap - Just over 300hp now
Plenum spacer
Japspeed K2 exhaust - Needs changing!
Dropped 25mm on Tein springs
Wheel spacers
High Flow Cats
Braided brake lines
JVC AVX-840 head-unit

I do have a long what to do next list but I'm torn between spending or saving for a new car which will be at least 2 years away.


Don't think bluetooth is standard, I sold my BT adaptor for £75 when I bought a new head-unit, quite a few people have problems with the Bose skipping which there is a remedy for. Whatever you do make sure you sign up to 350z-uk, great forum with traders on there that can save you a small fortune! Typically though it's down at the minute.

Naith can you not sort that silly aerial out? Have someones eye out with that

To take the discussion from the other thread - are you guys protecting your NCB when you take out insurance?

Doing so on the zed adds about £250-300. im getting quotes between £800-900 with 4yrs NCB and no protection and s&c mileage of 10000 miles. - which is pretty good i think

 

[Clown]

No, I'm not.

 

[tsinc80697]

I will in the future but when I come to renew at the end of this month I'll be 26 with 3 years NCB and 3pts (PC30) which expires this year but insurers request points from 5 years, costing me an arm and a leg!

£800-900 is what I dream of paying, Manchester post code is like saying I leave it unlocked with the key in the ignition every night.

my quote is with 6 pts from april 2008!! but after 3 years dont really add anything to the premium. my postcode is the 2nd worst possible i think

Worth every penny, add a couple of hundred quid but if you end up buried in a wall it all becomes worth it!

If I knock my points off for this years renewal it takes about £250 off the quote, those 3pts have cost me near £1000 since I got them, for stopping to close to a pedestrian crossing to let my girlfriend put a letter in the post box Think my post code is rated F, the worst possible.
