Oh, almost forgot! It looks like the brake calipers were installed the wrong way around - the left one was on the right, and the right one was on the left. It took us a while to figure out what was wrong, but then we noticed the bleeding valves were at the bottom. Nobody touched the brakes in the UK, so I’m assuming this was done in Japan

Some more maintenance done before Silverstone Things done so far Major service at Nissan - NEVER again New tyres (Michelin Pilot Sport 5) Front bumper resprayed Headlights cleaned and restored - Needs doing again, looking to replace lens instead of cleaning this time. We'll see... Dashcam installed (Viofo A229 Plus, hardwired) Antenna replaced and base refinished - Chipping a little bit, what can I say, TEMU antenna A-pillar finisher replaced Door seal replaced Rear wiper arm cover replaced OEM Spoiler installed Spark plugs replaced - NGK Iridium IX Oil and filter changed again Front lower ball joints replaced Right knuckle (OEM) replaced Boot popper springs replaced with heavy duty Boot struts replaced New emblems fıtted New brake pads fıtted (EBC Yellowstuff) ATF changed ıncludıng the filter/screen. Motul multi ATF - 7 litres used Differential fluid changed. Genuine Nissan differential fluid used - a little less than 2 litres Break fluid changed - Motul RBF 660 brake fluid - around 1.7 litres used Full coolant flush - Genuine Nissan green coolant - around 7 litres Air filter replaced - K&N Long-life Air Filter Brake pads replaced - EBC Yellowstuff To-Do (not in order) Front lip Aluminium undertray Polybush kit Headlight lens replacement - bought, not fitted yet New antenna, preferably OEM Underbody rustproofing Rear strut is chipping a little bit, may replace it, may wrap it, idk probably replace at some point Decided to go with Brembo calipers in the future Maybe, just MAYBE coilovers? want to keep her stock, but... let's say if I get RPF1s definitely, if not maybe. I need a clean auto knob. Older version. HKS Speed limiter defencer, I skipped this one thinking 120mph would be enough for novice track session.

That’s great, thanks again

Yeah, 15Nm or about 11ft-lbs

Thanks for the tip, google suggests 15Nm, does that sound about right?

Be careful and do not overtighten as the switch has a tapered thread.

Parcel received today, thanks Alex

Hi and welcome back. Lovely looking car.

Hi and welcome back 😁

Yeah, that is sort of what I was imagining, thanks.

Morning how do I book a display ticket, thanks in advance 😁

Do it. A boosted VQ is a fun time

Looks tidy

Depends on bodywork, state of trim etc, but I would imagine you could advertise it now as a project car for £1.5k, or fix it and sell for £4.5-£6k. Six of one half a dozen of the other.

Welcome back mate.👍

Hello all, I was a member on here years ago! I had a 2004 Coupe and I've recently bought myself another. It's a 2006 GT Roadster and I love it! - It's probably belonged to someone else on here. I've had it almost a year, started as my weekend toy but has become my daily this year due to a change of job. More or less completely standard but I'm thinking of going boost... still a bit unsure. Cheers!

My 2006 350Z revup roadster is in need of a lot of work. The engine has a terrible rattle, apparently for running oil starved, and misfire, which probably means a new engine, it needs a new clutch too. It's on about 95k miles, and I was thinking to sell it regardless, because my family is about to grow and I am driving very little lately. I have been quoted around 3.5k in parts and labor, and I am wondering if I should repair it and sell it in good nick, sell it with all its faults, or scrap it. Any opinions?

PM received and replied to:

I have these in stock. Just drop me a message if I can help you further. Alex.

Hi, I’m after a new oil pressure sensor for a 2002 auto fairlady Z. The part number is 25070-CD00A, prices seems to vary quite dramatically, I assume it’s based on stock availability?

I would change bushes/complete arms both sides, even if one looks fine it's the same age, milage, heat/cold cycles, road salt cycles, same everything. JMHO.

I would replace the bushes

QUESTION: was lowering my coilovers adjustable touch today and noticed my passenger front lower control arm bushing is completely blown out. The other side looks perfect. What's the general consensus? Do people change the whole arm? Or is it easier to press in a polyurethane bush?
