I am after a torque wrench for when I take cars apart (which happens on a frequent basis ) I don't want to spend a lot of money, but don't want cheap rubbish either. My main worry is that I buy one that covers, for example, 28-210Nm and then find out I have nuts on the car that need torquing to 20 and 220! Can anyone recommend a good range to go for in terms of Nm, and a good brand? I have found this: https://www.machinemart.co.uk/shop/prod ... que-wrench but as I say I don't know about the Nm range. Thanks

looks v tidy. has anyone got hold of Rota GTRs in 19" diameter yet? i would be interested to see a comparison pic against 18" rims.

Looks great! Nice and clean.

nice one. i'm in watford, so give me a shout sometime if you need any help. just followed a clean JDM Z in grey back from Watford to J20 on the M25. Guessing it can't be you if you're sat in front of a computer! Had the non-GT wheels.

Link to the info: http://www.honestjohn.co.uk/carbycar/index.htm?md=1282 'On 06 build gunmetal grey cars the paint over the plastic parts changes colour. Seems to be a general problem of paint blistering, leaving damage that looks like untreated stone chips but isn't. As of 8-6-07 Nissan would not acknowledge this as a fault.'

Thanks for all the quick replies. This is certainly one of the friendliest forums I have used I live in Kings Langley between Watford and Hemel Hempstead. The paint issue was mentioned on Honest John's website. He's usually pretty reliable for info on recalls, known problems etc. Interesting that no one on here seems to have suffered though.

Hey all, I'm Rich and I live in Herts. I am beginning the search for a 350Z having day dreamed about owning one for a long time. I owned an RX7 before someone else decided they wanted it more than me and then changed jobs with a long commute so I've currently got a Clio 182 Cup. Great car but it's lacking a V6 and RWD! I'm after a 04-05 plate met grey GT, although my budget may stretch to a 06 model. I have done a fair bit of research on what is a superb forum, so I know what I'm looking for. One thing I haven't come across though is a possible issue with the grey paint on 06 cars. I have heard this was a problem with some, with plastic parts suffering from peeling. Is this correct? Apart from that it's just the road tax that puts me off a 06. Being a Jap car I am considering a reasonably high mileage 04 to keep the initial cost down. Presumably as long as it's been looked after it should be fine!? Looking forward to joining the club!
