Fitment questions
Does the Nissan 350Z actually have CV joints?
Yes, the 350Z is a rear-wheel-drive car and its CV joints are found at the rear axle, on the driveshafts that connect the differential to the rear wheels. The front wheels steer but are not driven, so there are no front CV joints on this car. If you need a driveshaft component from the front end, you may be thinking of a different part such as a track rod end or wheel bearing.
Will a CV joint from an early 350Z (2003-2005) fit a later facelift model (2006-2009)?
The 350Z ran from 2003 to 2009, with a notable facelift arriving for the 2006 model year that brought styling and interior changes. The rear driveshaft and CV joint dimensions can differ between pre-facelift and post-facelift cars, so crossing that 2006 boundary is not straightforward. Confirm the part number and generation against your registration with the breaker before buying.
Does the trim level affect which CV joint I need on a 350Z — for example, does a GT or Touring spec use a different part?
Trim level names like GT, Touring, or Track do not affect CV joint fitment on the 350Z, as the drivetrain hardware is determined by the engine and generation rather than the trim specification. You may find minor cosmetic differences between cars at different trim levels, but the CV joint itself is the same unit. Focus on the model year and engine variant when sourcing the part.
The 350Z came with a 3.5-litre V6 throughout — does engine output affect which CV joint is fitted?
All UK-market 350Z models used the 3.5-litre VQ35DE V6, though power outputs varied slightly across the model's life, with later cars producing more power than earlier ones. It is possible that higher-output variants use uprated driveshaft or CV joint specifications to handle the additional torque, so confirm with the breaker that the part from their donor car matches your engine code and model year.
Does it matter whether I get the nearside or offside CV joint on a 350Z?
Yes, side absolutely matters — the nearside (left) and offside (right) rear driveshafts are handed and are not interchangeable. When contacting a breaker, always specify NS (nearside, passenger side) or OS (offside, driver side) clearly to avoid getting the wrong part. Double-check by counting your current driveshaft's length as the two sides can differ in length due to the differential's position.
Can I use a CV joint from a Nissan 370Z on my 350Z?
The 370Z replaced the 350Z from 2009 onwards and uses a different platform, different VQ37VHR engine, and revised rear suspension geometry, so the driveshafts and CV joints are not a like-for-like swap. Some internal components may share engineering DNA given Nissan's modular approach, but you should not assume compatibility without checking part numbers. Ask the breaker to cross-reference the exact part number against your 350Z's registration before proceeding.
