  1. Thanks guys shes over the moon... Its really unique... Don't see many of them The rear tyres are massive 285, wider than the Supra ones I can't seem to work out this seats recline forward to access the rear compartment area easier
  2. Hey all, So my GF as been working super hard and got to a position where she can have something called "car plan" when the company pay monthly towards a car of her choice, but it can't be older than 2 years. The past few year she has grown to love Japcars from being with me and ever since seeing a 350z she has wanted one, but then she got up and close to a 370z and fell in love with it. During Japfest last year her 1st port of visit was the 370 owners area were she saw the pre face lift 370 Nismo, and that was it she was set on that. Well after many months of determination and hard work we picked up yer new car today, a 2017 370z with only 2600 miles and 9k cheaper than showroom price. The car did come direct from Nissan so we have all the mechanical and paint warranty on the car directly through them. Oh she decided on the wheel care plan as she a bit of a klutz lol. I got to drive it back for her which was long 3 hours there and then a direct 3 hours back but well worth it, it sounds great and drives superb. The amount of turned heads was surprising for a stock Nissan lol My GF took a few quick pics so there is not to many but I thought I would share with you all. The pics don't do it justice for how lovely this car looks. I'm sure will get the pics of hers and the Supra together sometime
  3. I have 100 % faith in that then, its a really tidy job Lee had done
  4. That would be perfect but I wonder how I could get that to fit a precision turbo housing
  5. Those clutches are absolute awesome. Had mine for years and still going strong. Will that 90 degree bend in the oil drain be ok?
  6. I was only going off from what you said Its far from an open goal as I said I have sorted the problems and listed the latest parts over the past 12 months and its relevant to me to be straight up. Especially if someone sees the add thinks "hmm he had an ignition problem 12 months back but nothing is said about it" We and most people here obviously have a different view to you. Which is fine as its juts a matter of opinion. Thank you for your comments back and I will continue to reply to people that are interested in my car.
  7. Aww guys Really appreciate the kind words Greg and others, nice to see that people appreciate the way I approached my way of advertising. Many members and even non members know the problems I have had during the project and I feel confirming the problems have been rectified and only with the best parts. I didn't want people that was aware of the problems I have had due to me moaning about them when they happened thinking that I was trying to be sneaky and sell someone the car with the problems still there. I wanted my advert very clear, very honest and if people where anyway put off buy that well.. I wouldn't want them owning this car that I have but over 50k into and so much effort. Maybe Rider you feel you can bolt on a big turbo, map the car and run 1000bhp, and then engine goes thus it must have not been a well maintained engine.. LOL! So yes it A LOT (not FUK all as you would put it) to do with the power its running that has caused the issues I have had. That is all
  8. Its not that, its the fact to you that you feel the car has had problems due to it not being well looked after and maintained.... Thats why i said about the power. Thought that was obvious. Clearly not... but everyone else got it. Yes i could have not said that but to me for a car like this needs to go to an honest owner from coming from an honest owner. Each to there own.
  9. Awesome, nothing is a better feeling when something is fixed and reliable.... Except more power
  10. Thanks guys for the replies, I know the guy ended his post on a somewhat of a positive but it deem a daft thing to say, maybe I just got trolled
  11. Have you ever owned a 750 BHP car when your running more than double the stock power? Problems WILL occur. Looking at the car and the amount of work carried proves how well its is looked after and the amount spent on it. I think anyone can vouch that a highly modified car will need parts replacing with supporting mods... jeez lol That wasn't a smart post to be honest, but thanks for you feed back.. lol
  12. Your probably right, some guy on the american forum did a good job using a saucepan, But I'm looking at he Trust one from Greddy but they are for there T88 turbos. Does anyone know if they will be ok with ha T4 housing? https://shopgreddy-com.myshopify.com/products/1150180x
  13. Does anyone know of anywhere or anyone that sells Turbo heat shields that will cover a T4 housing like this: I have contacted a few american companies but would rather buy in the UK Thanks
  14. Sold the UK one already mate, sorry - - - Updated - - - PM'ed mate, thats a J-spec one you have lol, I hope not 1 million there £54 new haha
  15. There was a thread a while back and the guy offered to do the job... Have a google
  16. Thanks for the nice words all. Its still available and I think I'm ready to let it move onto its next owner.
  17. All paid With new wheels and tires interested to see if I can get a better time now lol
  18. Its all a out RPS clutch Id you have the budget for a twin or triple plate that the way forward. I'm 750bhp on a single walbro pump on 1000cc injectors and fueling is spot on. No Swirl pot needed. Don't forget supporting mods,...
