  1. :lol: :lol: I still don't understand how that happened lol! There so much stuff round about it to get broken first! Are you still running standard arb's and droplinks?
  2. Hi guys looking for a quick help. I've just swapped my arb's and drop links out for eibach arb's and Powegrid droplinks Has anybody changed to eibach adjustable arb's and powergrid drop links? What did you do with the headlight level sensor as the old nuts for it don't fit the new drop links and the bracket wont fit onto the arb unless you use the very softest setting, whereas mines are on the hardest. So far I have it fitted by flattening the little notch thing on it that usually sits against the end of the arb. This has allowed me to bolt it onto the drop link temporarily but the headlight level is way too high. The only thing I can think of is using an additional bolt to mount it onto the end position on the arb. Any help will be appreciated. Cheers Neil
  3. I used bluestuff on track and they are amazing, wouldnt fade etc but wore quickly. I was very aggressive with them in 30 degree heat though and they never let me down.
  4. yellowstuff pads are fantastic value for money. I bought mines from CS a couple of years ago and still have them. They have lots of life still left in them after a few track sessions and some fast road action! They will overheat eventually but can take a serious pounding
  5. you'd be gutted if you crashed that!
  6. as well as 2x 350zs both import Z33 ( one a nismo show car ) i also have a blue skyline 350GT manual imported in 2007 from yokohama oober rare manual and embarassingly whips both my zeds asses in spectacular fashion performance wise !! but it comes as standard 298bhp as a manual , with a spacer , intake , y pipes and a impul system it was dyno'd few years back at near on 320bhp , all Auto 350GT are 276bhp same as a zed DE engine ( except nissans attempt at single intake rev up ) Custard test
  7. Welcome, Expect bigger fuel bills and tyre bills. In terms of performance the mx doesnt stand a chance against the 350z. In terms of fun, I'd say pretty similar if you disregard the extra costs. To make the zed nibble and much more precise to drive will cost a fair bit more than it would for the mx5 which is pretty much a decent trackday weapon out the bag. Out of all the cars you mention without being bias, the s2000(if the later model) and 350z are close contenders. The s2000 will be much less practicle though and not as comfy i'd imagine.
  8. Thats stunning mate! Really really like that compared to the usual carbon fibre! 10/10 for creativity and styling imo!
  9. Fluid is getting hot. may be worth changing you fluid and fit a braided line. Could be a potential slave or master cylinder issue forming also.
  10. Not too sure mate. Possibly a better quality of oil and able to withstand higher temps? I'm unsure. Mobil1 was the worst out of any oils i've used
  11. Yeah mines a 56 plate and i burn about 1L per 1000 miles, known issue so its worth keeping an eye on. Not quite as bad as Adrian's was though.... Try changing your oil. I changed from using motul and castrol edge to Fuchs Titan race pro and it's cured my oil burning issue. I used to burn a litre every 2k but that was high revving and giving it the beans. I barely use any now. So you really need to change the sticker on your car Still getting cheap brake fluids

  13. Hey, that one is a Canon 10-22mm with a lens hood which is making it look a lot bigger than it is My other lenses are the Canon 18-55mm kit lens with no lens cap - yes I still use the kit lens - and a Canon 135mm L prime lens. The kit lens is fine until I can afford something else That's awesome mate. I've been looking at the L series telephoto lenses with fixed f-stop. Pricey for the ones with the is2 on them. U have some wicked editing skills if your are taking pics on th kit lens and ur phone and have them come out like that! Love your photographs!
  14. im sure mines were 2032 i may be wrong though
  15. could be andyzed's old car also
  16. is there not a time limit that the new battery needs to go in within or it loses the code? I can remember something vaguely about this
  17. Cs will sort u superpro bushes and to be honest they're the business with a lifetime warranty!
  18. I think the newer stuff is made cheaper to be honest. I had my stuff about 4 years ago and it was all decent. My decats have been perfect and they're subjected to some serious heat to be fair. I think the quality is maybe declining
  19. I ran mine with no bungs. I also run buddy club with no bungs (and decats)
  20. I loved mines but it didn't fit great and removed for warranty work and ended up selling it. Bought the buddy club to replace and it's a much nicer fit. The k1 is a fun cheap budget exhaust(if bought at the correct price)
  21. My alignment was done by ame with a piece of fishing line I'm sure
  22. I'm sure there is a link on here to a 350z repair manual on here although its for LHD cars. Check in the guides section. If not i can email it to you
