optional extra/ models

[Andy_350z]

looking for a t350, what are the different optional extras to look out for/ models if there is? or difference between the year releases? thank you

[Toobin]

mine had sun visors...I think their optional

[darkmark07]

later versions had a notch at the base of the rear hatch to make opening it easier...

My March 03 one doesn't have this, or sun visors for that matter!

Air conditioning was optional and is most definitely the most important thing to check you have. Yes it does work well, have to turn mine off every so often as it gets too chilled for the Mrs.

Apart from that things like leather interior (versus imitation stuff) is the main other interior factory option. Some have a factory 'red rose' upgrade - bigger front brakes (easy upgrade - mine now has them), supposedly uprated engine (although my 'standard' car seems to keep up with the 2 or 3 of these I've encountered on the track so I'm dubious) and a supposedly lighter body (again, I'm not sure how much lighter, but not that much).

All cars had Hydratrak diffs, 18" wheels.

Targa was a £2000 option.

Later in 2003, mine is late June 2003 and has them.

Not sure I'm afraid.

There was a T350 buyers guide in Evo within the last 12 months - it's got some pretty good info and is what prompted my interest - I think someone posted a scanned version here a few months ago...

Cheers,

Mark

ETA: Not sure about the scanned version, but apparently it was in the February issue this year - some discussion of the article here: http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a... and here: http://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&a...

If you can't find it on-line and can't get your mitts on a copy, let me know - I might still have the article at home.
