Is the sidelight globe big or small in them,like can you fit a slightly longer bulb in them ok?
I have amazing bulbs but longer than oe 501 if you want a set.

I'm going to steal your stubby aerial someday.

£15 off a guy on owners club who sells them. Want the details?

Well it's one year today since I bought the zed home.

Still makes me smile when I drive it so can't see it going anywhere for a while.

If it was to go it would be for something older and jap, soarer or laurel etc

Hoping to pick up splitter next month for it and get it fitted for the summer.

I'm watching the value of these closely as mine is low miles for the year etc lol

Bit of update.... been looking to upgrade sound system for an age, managed to pick up a used double din digital head unit and had a little help getting it fitted.

Was fitted correctly but was never happy with the finish of the head unit surround.

So today I removed everything and fitted a new fitting kit. Very pleased with the finish and look.

I'd originally contacted Abbey to get it done but found out about Dyna Tune who are based in Glasgow. Talked to a few members on the 350Z-UK forum who had them remap their cars and they all said they were very happy with the work and apparently they work with Abbey quite a bit as well. Give them a ring sure and see if you can get the two of us a group discount haha :p

I worked next to you for 18 months [Absolute ****ing hole of a place - although the vRS demo I had would have been easier to drive than your options. Haha] I own the Silver GT you'd seen/heard previously which is now twin turbo'd and I also own a Azure Blue GT.

Yes! I couldn't remember where it was I spoke to you. I immediately assumed it was on here; but couldn't find any trace of it. I don't know why I didn't think of the 350z UK forum. Haha.

The silver one is a completely different beast now and the blue one is up for sale so it will be going shortly.

Ah, I was kidding about the mini's. The cooper s is a great car to drive, but I have to admit the vRS estate wasn't too bad either. Decent cruising wagon.

I had to take a second drive-by of your car the other day. On first passing it looked like it was on Rota Grid Drifts. The colour threw me. I don't care what anyone says. Blade Silver looks amazing on the Zed.

Cheers, yeah the colour almost looks like polished aluminium when it's proper clean. I keep toying with switch wheel colour but I love the contrast of bright silver against the black. Front lip will be black also and then eventually skirt extensions and rear spats.

What power is the twin turbo putting out?

I agree. Although ever since I had the Rotrex Charged Silver/Carbon EP3, I've always been a bit of a silver fan boy. Haha. I love the contrast on the silver with the darker anthracite alloys. I've actually seen a few people do it on the azure blue, with black details like doorhandles, etc and in some instances it looked well.

Pal I have a carbon centre lip on my 350z that's being sold, I'll take it off if you want it. It'd look well on your car. I'll call down and give you it for nothing.

This is it on my car. It's subtle, but would look well on the silver. I've also a Official Nismo CAI intake that you can have for free, but it needs a water bypass valve. £25 quid should get you a new valve.

The TT Zed is putting out 503WHP.
