Nissan 350Z Fuel Tank Replacement Parts

The Nissan 350Z (Z33) ran from 2003 to 2009 as a single generation, with a facelift arriving in 2006 that brought styling and interior updates. Because the fuel tank is a mechanical component, fitment is more likely to follow the engine code than the facelift year, but mounting brackets and ancillary connections can change mid-production, so confirm with the breaker against your exact registration before buying. Never assume a pre-2006 tank will drop straight in without checking.

The 2006 facelift is the key boundary to be aware of here: while the underlying VQ35DE engine carried across the generation, ancillary and mounting changes around a facelift can affect how a tank fits or connects. Name your engine code (found on your V5 or via a VIN check) when contacting the breaker, and ask them to confirm compatibility across that 2006 boundary against your registration. We cannot state as fact that a post-facelift tank will interchange directly with a pre-facelift car.

Trim level does not affect fuel tank fitment on the 350Z — the tank is determined by the engine code, not whether your car is a standard, GT, Touring, or Track specification. You may find cosmetic or interior differences between trims when sourcing parts from a breaker's car, but the tank itself should be the same across trims within the same engine and year. Always confirm with the breaker against your registration to be sure.

The 350Z used the VQ35DE V6 petrol engine throughout its 2003–2009 UK production run, and this is the engine code you should quote to any breaker. You'll find the engine code on your V5 logbook or by running a VIN check, and supplying it gives the breaker the single most useful piece of information for confirming fitment. Quoting your full registration alongside it will help them cross-reference their stock accurately.

The Z33 350Z ran as one generation from 2003 to 2009, so tanks from across that range are broadly in the right family, but mid-production changes — particularly around the 2006 facelift — can affect mounting points, sending unit connections, and ancillary fittings in ways that aren't always obvious. Supply your engine code and registration to the breaker and ask them to confirm the donor car's year against yours before purchasing. We can't guarantee a tank from one end of the production run will fit the other without that check.

The 350Z (Z33, 2003–2009) and 370Z (Z34, 2009 onwards) are different generations with different platforms, and the fuel tank is not a shared part between them. Always source a tank from a Z33 350Z donor car, quoting your engine code and registration to the breaker. Using a 370Z tank as a substitute is not something we can support and should not be assumed to be compatible.
