  1. warped discs most definitely. Clark motor sport do a great line of discs. http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/88812-special-package-price-dba-t2-discs-and-hawk-pad/
  2. I remember many years ago at the F1 GP Brands Hatch the Vulcan made the same fly by it was and still is the loudest noise I've ever heard.
  3. In agreement all the way. Persons who take pictures of accidents and then post them on the internet need to take stock of their actions and think how they would feel if it was their loved ones involved.
  4. Its quite normal BUT. Being hydraulic any wear in the clutch / fly wheel is taken up by the system and results in a high pedal position. I recently did mine prior to a European road drip and glad i did. I had no slippage no judder or signs of any wear but when i remove it the clutch was down to the rivets and had clear signs of excessive heat build up and scorching. I would suggest that failure is quite fast and unexpected. parts from http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/80847-exedy-oem-replacement-clutch-kit-vq35de-super-price/
  5. Great pictures and some stunning looking roads. This type of trip is going to be something i'm planning next. Thanks for sharing.
  6. When i did the guide and removed the knob i found that it had been loctited into place hence could be a little tight.
  7. engine is not getting enough fuel, or the engine is getting to much air. The other possibility if that there is an air leak or "unregistered" air entering the engine, either from the intake or exhaust. Make sure the air intake from the filter to the engine is good and secure.
  8. I was very careful with speed limits and kept to them. It is not going to be a fast paced roadtrip (other than the autobahn) as most often you will be going 50mph or less. Fine by me as more time to enjoy the view There were quite a few well hidden cameras and i know i got flashed once but not heard anything yet in the post. You wont Will, There is no current legislation's to enable foreign EU countries to sent fines or summons to the UK for minor traffic offences. That's why the French Police are very keen on, on the spot fines. There is talk of this changing though.
  9. Totally legal. Local policy would dictate who and when to persue in any event.
  10. Glad to see a few more Z's turning up. Could only stay for a short while. A big thanks to Derek and all yet again for arranging the event.
  11. Check that all wheel balance weights are still in place Front and rear.
  12. As i recall it's a straight forward job. Here's a link. http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/37794-plenum-spacer-mrev2-manifold-installation/

  22. Whilst travelling round France myself and Linda went to the Mont St Michel. Pulled up at a junction to allow traffic to pass when low and behold a Black 350Z. That's a coincidence i exclaimed then another and another. Sod the Island i said i'm following the drive out. The convoy stopped a little way down the road in a cafe as you do and had a chat with some very nice French Z'ers all part of the Notre350z club.
