  1. Would you pay this price £2,100 http://www.theultimatefinish.co.uk/swis ... a-wax.aspx
  2. Thanks Chris "freudian slip". Fully agree with comments about buying the best but bloody hell pro-detailers pass the cost on to you. Her indoors would say thats our weekly shop and then follow it up with paying twice as much for a new dress.
  3. Does anyone actually buy this product. https://www.cleanyourcar.co.uk/zymol-co ... d_995.html

    how to tune?

    Hi Your question is can you get 300bhp on your 276, the answer is yes. Plenum spacer, high flow cats, stillen y pipe and scorpion box remap. Leave the remap to the end but be aware that your cats will mean the engine runs lean so dont hang around for the remap. I am on 302bhp after the remap at RS tuning up at Leeds for the boys in the north. Having said all this I believe if you like to drive fast with power then get your brakes and suspension beefed up before any of this. Cheers let us know how you get on.
  5. I know what you mean, but I've maxed out on my slush fund and her indoors may start to notice, like my mate "steve" somewhere in yorkshire(close to a jail) there's only so long you can tell them that all the mods are £50. Jeff
  6. Yet again I just couldn't wait to fit these, I really must resist in future and stick to my game plan. A follow up for Tarmac, fitted a new set of FK452's while I was at it. The dish version on the rears were on his advice and it works well, I think their the "dogs doodas". Tyres are 245-45-18 front, standard offset. 255-45-18 rear with 25 off set that neeeearly fills out the wheel. Thanks Chris. Cheers Jeff

    RUN FLAT TYRES.

    Try these,
  8. Pm sent on this. standard plastic engine cover , simple plastic part which goes onto of the engine £ 20
  9. Will not really improve, well known problem, check its adjusted to the relevant "clicks" on the hand brake then ignore that and place it in either forward gear if facing uphill and reverse if facing downhill, turning the front wheel into the kerb, then don't worry about it. My mechanic will tell you they have never repaced the handbrake drum discs on a 350z through wear. Jeff
  10. I wanted another set of wheels for the Z and went for 18" Gtr rotas 8.5" front 9.5" rear, rears were deep dish for something just a little bit different. Decided on Tarmac whose no nonsense approach to doing business on our site appealed to me. A big thumbs up to tarmac nice and slick and next day delivery by Interlink, spot on. Quick photos taken on the day due to wheels not being fitted till the weather picks up (summer wheels) photos later when fitted. Once again a pleasure doing business with Tarmac and highly recommended Cheers Jeff
  11. Ricey that was as long as "war and peace book" you must have been up all night. I quite like the one last year "why on my speedo dial is the line next to the 30mph the only line thats in red????" Dohhhhhh.

    GTR Rotas

    Hope you good folks can give me a bit of advice. Looking to buy a set of 18" GTR rotas, 8.5" front and 9.5" rear, am I right in assuming that an offset of ET 25 will not cause any fitting problems? I have read all the other posts and the more I read the less I understand, I assume this offset will move the wheels slightly outwards? Thanks for any comments and info on this. Cheers Jeff

  15. Some say start at 5 or 10 I wouldnt use 0 in this country, have a word with opie or zmanalex but definitely buy it your self.

  17. A very happy new year to all.
  18. Must have arms like King Kong
  19. No kerbing, thats the main problem, Megs products are fine (clearly not the metal polish).
  20. T cut is definitely a no no Bronzees comments are correct and if it fails try using a DA machine if you have access to one and know how to use it. Combine that with mequiars ultimate compound. Most people use swirl X etc but they are not really up to the job, however you can use the ultimate compound by hand, just a bit more muscle power required.
  21. Have a look at this if you haven't already, check out the last entry as well. viewtopic.php?f=59&t=36291&hilit=bleeding+brake+lines I think you have found your problem as per your previous reply "Pads were a straight swap however I think I took too long on the brake lines as a lot of fluid was lost and the master cylinder went dry!" You can bleed the brakes with 900ml of fluid if done correctly, I think you will find that another bleeding is needed, if you dried out. Cheers Jeff
  22. Take it to your local exhaust man that you trust, they'll give you a quote for nothing. Its not worth the hassle if you cant get it up to work under.
  23. You'll need to be a bit more precise in what you did and what you fitted and how? You did fit braids while you were at it?
