350Z and 370Z serious used bargains

Sometimes i drive with basketballs in the back of my z and one time i was in a situation where i had to slam on the brakes and three basketballs came flying into the front seat lol, fun times

The first and about the only mod I did to my Z was to replace that plastic engine splash shield with an Aluminium shield from TBW. The new aluminium shield has a door in it that allows you access to the drain plug and oil filter by just removing two screws and dropping the little door.

Definitely going to do the Trunk expansion mod! I have never even thought about going about it that way. Looks OEM too, good job mate!

Great video Neil, keep up the good work!!

Keep the great vids coming mate

Great vid sir. I can’t wait to try a few ideas like painting the interior door handles in my soon to buy Z.

I run my Nismo without the spare tire. Saves weight but didnt finish it up like you did. Great stuff.

looking forward to using this later when I have one, great video thanks!

Great video, the mods turned out good 👍

Some great ideas there. But I’d be gutted if I found my cassette deck had been disabled as I love my tapes lol. Keep up the good work.

Thanks for the video, great useful information and that Orange is my favorite Z color. I found the cargo net to be extremely useful for trunk while keeping the spare...and the previous owner of my car used hydro dip for the scratched up interior bits, it looks really nice with a carbon fiber pattern. Thanks again, I just subscribed an look forward to more Z vids

That penny trick is awesome!!! I was so annoyed by needing 2 hands to open my trunk, and this totally fixed it. Cool!

Amazing video, very creative and informative!

Great update mate! The boot idea came off really well 👍 Headlights came up a treat.Think I will buy a bottle.Look forward to next years instalment 🍻🎄👍🏁

Big thanks Michael. Yes, I recognise your name, thanks for the long time support.

I can only repeat the feedback of so many others! Great job and really lots of easy but working fixes there. My favourite is the headlights polish, I absolutely didn't expect this much difference, great! Also interesting to see the difference between the Philips bulbs with the xenon headlights. I have changed my headlights bulbs (H7 halogen) also to Philips ones with 60% more light (but still only 55W) and the change in light on B roads is also so much better. I think their lifetime is a bit less but I don't care, the light is so much better. Keep going, absolutely enjoying your videos Greetings from Bavaria

Something good for the steering wheel.... Either use your isopropyl diluted or try the Dodo Juice Leather spray. Both excellent at removing aids from the steering wheel.

I love what you did with the trunk. Almost looks stock and I could totally use the extra space. Don’t think I could not keep the spare tire with me though. That’s kind of a deal breaker.

nice how-to, thanks. What is the colour code for the gear knob fix?

Nice one. Not sure if you have done this already and might be interesting to your self, the clutch pedal sits higher then the brake pedal on these, you can adjust the clutch pedal so it can sit flush with the brake pedal, makes a big difference with heel & toe. Bit fiddly but we'll worth it 👍

Yo Z man ,, Cool down to earth vid with some good tips for the beginner , novis or new Z owner ,. You seem to be well researched on the Z , so .... Ive had a Z for years now , and as much as i thrash it within an inch of it life ,its just keeps performing ,quite well to (love the wet days ). However ,im at the MODIFICATION STAGE , so do you plan any good mods ,for power gain ,,if so ,what might you be leaning towards . Much Respect from Down Under

Nice Z, got the same one....Do you know by chance where the blower motor relay is located? Trying to fix my AC!

Nice boot conversion v interested. What dimensions did you end up with in that boot. We goign to do Portugal a&nd Span so need to see what bags and cases we coudl get in. Thanks

For best night time driving you should get the projectors reflectors recycled. The process is called Vacuum Metalisation. It makes HUGE difference.

Just in case you see this who did you get the weatherstrip off of on the forum please?

Awesome Z

Does your car have back up sensors or what are those dots on the back

Hello do you have a part number for the headlight bulbs ?

Stereo auxiliary. I just use a clydek bluetooth transmitter. Amazon about £20. Works great through a chosen radio channel. And stereo unit is untouched.👍

Decent video! I have no interest in a 350z but it doesn't stop me watching... I found your channel a few years back because of your Boxster, and I'm finally looking at buying a 986 - house buying got in the way last time.. Would you have another or have things just moved on so far that you wouldn't?

@RoadandRacetv

Both are good cars but for the same money the 350Z is faster and newer. Drive both and see what you think?

Some good stuff there, although I would have kept the spare wheel! My car didn't even come with one, just some useless tyre goo and a compressor. I had to buy a spacesaver for piece of mind.

Then use the cargo net that comes with the cart for the Trunk or boot kol

Orr for the trunk, you could just get a pre-made subwoofer box with the z logo and kill 2 birds with one stone. It does the same thing you did, except you don’t have to custom fit anything & 2 - 10inch subwoofers facing the front to up your music experience.

Let's see the middle area after the wall you added...that could be made into a cool cubby with secret access pop switch. Keep your keys of blow hidden

My favorite color. got an 05. Sunburst Orange metallic.

is there no usb port in a 350z?

where can i order the the bulbs d2r x-treme vision

Hey can i have opinions on weather on not i should buy this car. It's an 07 hr 350z with 105k miles for 6k usd.. it has rays wheels and a seibon carbon fiber bonnet and wing.. only problem is a very slight grind when dowmshifting from 6 to 5th gear. This can be avoided by downshifting slowly.. upshifting feels great through every gear. Any opinions are greatly appreciated.

@RoadandRacetv

5 жыл бұрын

I'm not an expert but if the gearbox grinds then it my guess is it's worn cogs that'll only get worse. Either factor in the cost of a new gearbox or walk away.

The convertible wouldve been a better option in terms of the boot. The roadster has an independent boot without entry to the roof or the front👌

What about the spare tire?

I got a 350Z and mine is in a little worse shape than this one (worn leather, chipping steering wheel, etc...) I bought it as my first car a couple months ago and I wanna restore it any suggestions
