Have a look at this link you should find it in here, someone kindly downloaded the PDF files of the factory manual, try RAX this covers rears dont know about fronts. Either way it will be in there they always list the torque figures. Happy hunting. http://www.nicoclub.com/FSM/350Z/coupe/

A picture would help?

Another satisfied group buyer, about the squeek, I know how to stop it, I let the wife sit in the passenger seat now and wear ear plugs.

I've just looked at the dipstick today, I think it's shaped funny at the bottom to guide the dipstick into the right position (the hoop hole facing the side of the car and not the windscreen). I could be wrong though! I've got a few pics which I'll post up for people to look at With regards to the oil, I checked this morning and it's showing as full!! It was much easier reading it on a cold engine! Your right with your comments the dipstick is designed to go in only the way you say. In fact don't try and do it the opposite way its darn near imposssible to do and could cause some serious problems if left unseated because the engine bay will end up with its own special oil wash!!!

Marmite choice do what you like and suits your needs best.

Had a look on photobucket at your creased wing it should be repairable at a good body shop. A quote will cost you nothing?

Plenty of these for sale but I decided to stick with a dealer on here who manufactures them in this country,Horsham developments, link below, viewtopic.php?f=161&t=45012&hilit=horsham

Not really but you have RS tuning at Leeds?

Plenum spacer?

Trust me your bay looks quite good. A lot worse than that out there.

May'be a remap now in view?

Surprised that your not going to RS leeds,even mark from Abbey will tell you that they are equally as professional as they are. Nearly all motorway from your place and in the end cheaper for you. A remap has to be one of the best investments on the Z but only after you've had all your mods done first. Had mine done a couple of weeks ago, totally changed my cars performance.Love it.

+1

Just a point of interest the standard touch up kit has a brush that 4mm wide, far too large for the normal scratch, paints 4 you have specialised "spears" that are 0.02mm at the end for a more accurate fill without over spill.

Speak to mark at abbey then. All questions will be answered.

Dont want to jump in before Steve but I have just done a full tankful since my remap at RS Leeds, I was running rich, and I think, but not confirmed, that I have actually obtained at least an extra 50 miles on a tankful. Happy chappy. Ps probably spelt tankfull wrong, hey, ho who cares?

Where do you live?

To be honest touch up kits are what they are, the only successful way is a total respray. Try the nail test if you can feel it with your finger nail it needs professionally doing.

Where do you live?

Your paint code should be on an aluminium plate in the engine bay drivers side with all the other info.It should be a 3 figure code, i.e my blue azure is B17. I think if you search on this site you may find a photo of it? Not sure though.

Be careful you might end up sleeping with the fishes.

Once you get them clean seal them with this. Finish Kare 1000p high temp polish, this polish is designed specifically for wheels and exhausts (shiny ones) it its temp resistant to over 250+ deg C. Not forgetting that brake dust burns out at this temp hence its specific use.

Take a page out from the male Lions in Africa, if they don't like their young they eat them, perhaps we could have restaurants with a bring and buy sale??

Not sure what you mean ? Its a group buy, the revision is for other members of the group who are still waiting to go for their uprev

A couple of good replies already, sites such as "meguiars" and "clean your car" are full of information and how to videos. One slip up that happens regularly is the use of the word polish, in detailing terms polishing does not mean the final coat, waxing and sealants do. It seals in the previous polished layer. "Sheeting water" after the final wash is very useful and using the 2 bucket system, any way I'm not trying to teach how to suck eggs the best way is to watch the videos, a picture says a thousand words etc,etc. Happy cleaning.
