Newbie saying hi and to ask a favour......
One of those items of feedback is from a member here. I don't recall who it was though.

Fairly common to take out the good stereo when you sell a car and swap it for a cheap one!

Custom Zed Ireland
Been for sale on and off for a few months. Price has come down by a few thousand. Going by previous ads, it's got a lot of performance mods. Some may have been removed as there were also ads for parts which mentioned the car was being kept and "detuned" due to health problems.

Nice! Those clear timing belt covers must be handy to have.

They're really nice! Something that could easily come off tacky, but they're very well done.

That's exactly what comes to mind any time I think about selling my Z - I will regret it!

Genuine Nissan alloy sizes?
JDM wheels are 225 all around. US, UK and I presume most other markets got the staggered ones.

Erratic Idle
Idle was still a bit off on my dry drive home yesterday, but nothing so extreme. Pulled out the air box when I got in and there was no sign of water, but there was about as much oil as DJ_Party_Favor found: Cleaned out the box and MAF - to be fair the MAF wasn't cleaned when I changed the filters before, and by now it was fairly dirty. Put the K&Ns back in but will be keeping an eye on them. Very wet again this morning but no issues. Idle was steady the whole way, starting at around 950RPM once up to temperature, then dropping to 900 and 850 as the journey went on.

May be oil more so than water - this thread sounds very familiar. I wonder if he kept the K&Ns in the end?

Erratic Idle
I'll definitely be going back to OEM filters if this is the issue. Not worth it for a stock NA engine I think. It has had slightly erratic idle even in the dry though since fitting these filters.

Will try that, thanks. If that's the case is the MAF likely to be knackered or could I clean it off and revert to OEM filters?

Erratic Idle
On my (rather wet) drive to work this morning, idle was very rough and the engine cut out a few times in traffic. My first concern is the MAF... Since fitting a pair of K&N panel filters (together with exhaust, but I doubt it's that), the idle speed has been less stable - but not this severe up to now. Could they be letting water or oil into the MAF? I also noticed at the time that there's a pencil-sized hole through the mesh on the MAF :huh: I have driven in wetter weather up to now and hadn't noticed idle being any more erratic in the wet.

Hmm, didn't actually translate that listing. Looked gold to me.

Probably a lot. I think if you go through Buyee you'll get a shipping quote quickly.
