Would be good to see a before and after...

I agree with what most have said. I've had some experience with this. I would avoid suing under constructive dismissal unless absolutely necessary, i.e. the employer is taking the p!ss - especially if you expect to stay in your sector. People do talk, and the important small details will be missed from the headline of 'this employee sued their employer'. If you can get redundancy, go for that - unlikely you will have to work your tenure. They will put you on gardening leave - infact you can negotiate this with your HR as part of your exit. Technically you cannot work in your new role until gardening leave is up, but in reality will your former employer care? - I'm sure there is a way to handle this also.

What is the static and drive by noise dB on this car sir?

Any updates grandpa Alex?

Bennett, is this another emotional response to something lol I will message you lmao

if you change your mind

Yeah I'm starting to think that OEM > Mishimoto. When I rebuild, I will get some other branded parts I think. Thanks

Bit late to the party. To the OP, I had the exact same issue with the Mishimoto rad overheating and it loosing water. Did turn out to be the cap, it's a design flaw. Sorry to hear about the HG, not had this issue yet, but blown motor so worse

I'll be more specific:- VQ35DE forged 350Z with forged VQ35DE

Hi all, Either forged motor or car with forged motor, let me know please.

I have a mishimoto one if you want

Preferably new, but used considered.

Yep exact same issue for me!

He don't care about zeds any more.

The longer one. Anyone have one for sale?

That's not me in my Avatar btw....... Ah…sh!t… my mistake. Sorry I will be sure not to chat you up when I'm in chinatown next!

40 what?! you look like you're 20!

Macs rock!

Welcome

Any updates on this Graham?

Id disagree TBH, as Ive said elsewhere the HSD's improved pretty much every aspect on my JDM - turn in was sharper, feedback better, body roll massively reduced but they are still as compliant as standard was. Even on bumpy roads theyve got that little bit more give than most coilies do, so rather than bouncing off into a field the car keeps its composure. IMO coilovers are much better value than ARB's, the adjustment alone speaks for itself .......... and Im also thinking it shouldnt take more than 2 hours to fit them, I certainly paid less than £100 Listen to this man!! I have had eibach front and rear ARBs... Tried different settings and didn't notice much difference. Think for this platform it's more placebo effect. The OEM bars is pretty good and strong. Coilovers, alignment, and good tyres are your best bet. I'm getting mine fitted now. As was stated earlier, you have to compromise somewhere with ride comfort. I share your frustration with London roads though. If you have adjustable ones, you can change settings for when you go on track and then change back for road driving. Yes I know, not ideal, we'd all like electronic damping to do that sort of thing for us!

Great win But th Great win! But there must be something wrong with these motors… or they're not the claimed power!

Does anyone have one, with the threading fully in tact?

i got one but i need to find it. you can have it for cheap.
