2006 Nissan 350z GT

[da.murf]

Picked this up last week and am quickly seeing why they are so popular.

Its a 2006 GT model with 44k on it. The service history was what drew me to it and that is was pretty unmessed with.

Wheels have been referbed in gloss black with touch of flake in it. Thinking of going anthracite instead long term.

Love the noise and handling of the car, big powerful lump, and for those who say they are slow, they must be used to big big power cars cause this feels every part of 300bhp lol.

Will fire up a few more photos as I go (thanks to @Sonny for snapping it at weekend)

only real plans are

popcharger intake
front splitter
space out wheels front and rear
maybe an exhaust lol...

comments welcome

Lovely, bonnet bulge too Agree on the wheels, Rab was telling me about it today when I called in for parts, sounds a good one

Mine is registered on the exact same day with identical miles, random coincidence lol. Loads of advice diy's and advice on 350z-uk if you aren't already on

Yeah should be a couple of pages back. I only recently bought it back after it going away for a couple of years but I bumped the original thread. Nismo is by far the best exhaust for them but expensive and hard to find, they sound great even standard though. Parts wise there are a few decent traders on the forum giving decent discount and always worth a look, have never found the prices of things very dear which is handy

 

[Tinners]

Spotted this earlier, looks awesome!

 

[Gambit]

They are such a good looking car

Lovely, 06 silver is called universal silver btw, I take it alloy is what the yanks call it? I bought a silve one in 06! Long time ago now

 

[da.murf]

Thanks guys. Yeah noise is addictive and getting 24mpg mixed from it so not too bad.

Please I got face-lift with led rear lights and updated fogs.

Slowly realising you really don't see many on road which is nice.

Thoughts on wheel colour change?

 

[G N K]

Lovely, always wanted one of these. Shame (for me) they've only got the two seats.

 

[mcmurray]

Lovely Dave. You'd left before I got a look at it on Sunday.

 

[Alan_B]

Very nice. Wonder if we could get an NI owners meet?

Having used mine every day and now just using occasionally it feels a lot more special.

I feel like a teenager in love again........ nom-tastic Davey boy, health to drive.

gorgeous looking and love the colour. Yes I agree with you that the alloys would look excellent in anthracite. HTD

Yes a meet would be great mate. Would be up for it certainly. Eventually this will be weekend only as company car arrives in summer.

Thanks del, only real let down in the car is the head unit.... 2006 car with a tape deck lol! Will certainly be changing that soon lol.

oh - the speakers are a HUGE let down as well - talk to Chris Linsday - he had a cracking little system for little money!

Chris' was spot on, and being a few years ago can probably be had for a lot cheaper or some newer stuff available.
I still rock the tape deck for the aux cable and that nobody wants to break in for it

 

[diesel-dave]

Enjoy it, great little cars. I only had mine for about 9 months but thought it was great.

Seen that mod Chris. Is it hard to do?

I know we'd chatted before about the Milltek I have for sale, but now that my Ark Grip has bedded in properly I can safely say you neeeeeeed one of those! Best mod I've done to the car. The sound is unbelievable and it looks absolutely beautiful. Happy to let you have a listen some time.

Sorry mate forgot to get you to pm me a price of milltek so please do. Do u have a video of the ark? Heard great reports but are they not mental money??

Small update

Fitted a pop charger today. Picked it up off owners club as I've heard good reports of them and build quality is second to none.

Before

After.

Please excuse mad colours lol camera phone on last legs.

Manufacturers quote at 5-10hp gains which I very much doubt. I'm happy with noise and the heat shield that properly does shield filter from exhaust down pipes.
