Guys,

Im from Singapore. Need some help, so hope the gurus here can help me out. Just deposited a 350Z. its a 03 make but registered in Oct/2004, meaning it has been on the road since only OCt 2004. Wad are the things l shd look out for?

Some questions l have:
1)Mine is a 6MT, has brembo, so isit considered touring or enthusiast or?

2)What kind of maintenance shd l be looking out for? like how often do l have to go for servicing? Do l have to top up the engine oil often?(Cos l heard for RX8 u need to top up the engine oil very often urself)

3)Im currently on Bose system. If there any way to change the stock head unit? Cos l dun think l can survive long without my mp3s. Or is there any way to attach mp3 capability to the head unit?

4)Wad is the clear bra u guys r toking abt?

5)any good and cheap mods l can go for?

Tks.

 

shouldnt have to add much oil. if you have the bose headunit then it will play mp3 cd's 6 of them. Clear bra is to cover your front bumper and part of hood etc. to keep chips from occering just search clear bra. POP charger mrev2 5/16th spacer are good mods to start off with.

 

1. Your car is a track edition if it comes with brembos.

2. Maintenance on our cars is pretty easy. Since yours was manufactured in 03, look out for tire feathering, transmission issues (3rd gear syncro mostly) and window grease streaks.

3. I didn't think that the track had bose sound system, but here is a great ipod connector for you stock head unit. Works great and has great sound transmission. http://www.discountcarstereo.com/detail.aspx?ID=701

4. My car a 3M clear bra on the hood, this protects from rock chips, just google it.

5. JWT popcharger is a good first mod, simple and cheap, after that get a plenum spacer.

 

Look up the Technical Service Bulletins (TSBs) for the 03 model. Since it's an 03 model, almost all the problems should have been addressed by the previous owner, but you never know.
Invest in some detailing products. I like Zaino

 

Sorry but I don't speak internet jive.

 

Are these easily replaced once they are dirty and chipped up. Or maybe they're more durable and permant? Just curious b/c I looked at a GC with one and it looked really bad... Dirty and all chipped up from rocks. The salesman said it was an Infiniti factory installation.

 

They're pretty durable. Regular rock chips shouldn't leave marks on the film:

I believe it was only the 06 and 07 that were able to play MP3's on the Bose unit. I know my 04' 350zr doesn't play MP3's.

 

There are a couple of "iPod interface" threads around, if u have an iPod.

 

Leather? Could be Grand Touring with Brembo and Bose.

 

I am on the "verge" of caring.

 

i';m on the verge of cumming

 

the clear bra, is a great investment, i have one on my nismo V2 bumper n not 1 rock chip

 

Wow! So many responses!! hehe this is really a good forum man!! too bad we dun have something like this in Singapore.

The previous owner told me no mp3 capability...

l suppose the clear bra is a plastic sheet or kinda clear sticker? hmm...read abt the review....dun really suit dark cars it says....mine is a black wan..

Pardon me but Wad is a pop charger mrev2 5/16th spacer?

Tks!!

 

yup mine comes with the yellowish brown leather. Heard from the previous owner it comes with HID also...

Actually l tot of doing up a big deep dish rims and the exhaust..any good recommendations? TKs.

 

please use proper grammar/spelling and not typical singlish...

I was from Singapore too and nothing annoys me more than:
wan (one)
tok (talk)
wad (what)

plus...if you used the search button, all your questions will instantly be answered..

 

Oh... I thought he named his pop charger Wad.

Wad is a pop charger,
Wad likes to blow,
