Sounds like a warped disc, could you get your wheel off then stick a clock guage on the disc and take run our readings. This will tell you if its warped or not. If it is you'll need it either skimmed or replaced but i would also be looking to see why it has wapred, seized piston, excessive use etc

I came form an ep3 type r, its a good move. a totally different kind of driving experiance though. fuel wise i don't think i'm much worse off and reliability wise the 350z is just as good as the type r's, plus i found insurance to be cheaper!

Good vibes then, would probably go for a st2 or st3 for the slight extra specs. Not fussed on the petrol consumption she struggles to reach 5k a year. Seems there's a few common issues to do with the power steering and some diaphram so will need to look into that a bit more.

Thinking of trading in the mrs little ibiza sc for a older style st since the prices have dropped loads for the earlyer ones, so she'll have a nice car and it'l be futureproof if/when we have a child. Anyone came from one of them to here could offer any words of wisdom on what to look out for when looking for one? i'll do the usual and have a look through thier forums for common faults etc but always nice to here from someone whos got experiance but nolonger blinded by the faults due to owning one. Thanks for help or advice folks

was like watching a less extreme version of The Scheme

I was looking for this when i got my 350z as i was servicing it myself, after a bit of research i ended up just buying the K&N cleaning and oiling kit, only thing is that itl dye the filter a bit red, Doesn't bother me about colour as long as i know its clean and oiled i'm happy. up to you though if you want to spend extra cash to keep it blue

Cheers sam, I looked through hundreds of his posts but ignored that tread as i thought it was just going to be a random fact! The pics were exactly what i needed, games a bogey with my plan to mess about and customise a standard exhaust. Sorry ninja won't be looking for an exaust now unless mines packs in, cheers for offering though

Had a search but couldn't find anything and tryed P'Ming himii but he can't recive any new messages. hopefully he might notice this post and share an knowledge that he has. Ninja how much would you be looking for?

Forgot to put that in, Falkirk. still cant find any pics or drawings.

Anyone got any drawings or diagrams of the internals of the mid section and the backbox for the standard 350exhaust? actual pictures would be better. had a google and a search and can't find anything useful. If anyone local is selling these parts cheap i may also be intrested depending on my findings of the internals. Cheers for any help

Puggy 106 1.5 XRD 156K was only on 65k when i got it and had it for a year and a bit

Simple really the mrs car is about 3 years old so will be due its first mot. She is not the first owner but will the DVLA send her a reminder? as her road tax was due and she did it online and it never said anything about needing an Mot , so surely it must be due by the end of the month or sometime soon.

Welcome, I went from a ctr to the 350z. Massive improvement however you realise you took the big easy boot for granted once you get the 350z

Looks like i'll not be gettin my MOT's for £30 any more

Last year we went looking for a new car for the mrs and the salesman hounded us instantly asking what she could afford to pay a month and asked us to come inside to see what finance was avalible to her. He was swiftly told to ram it he didn't even ask what car she was intrested in or anything, safe to say we walked away from there. An other garage the woman followed us and wouldn't give us space to talk. everntually at one dealership we met the best salesman i've ever delt with and probibly the best i'll ever deal with. he wasn't pushy just helpful and poilite and gave us space and time. He found us a good deal and got our commision. just amasing on how diffrent they can be and that they can even put you off looking at their stock with the wrong attitude

Thought so! just the film looked tinted so thats what put me off just wipping them off

Well sadly after trying all other insurance companies(Cheapest £1500) no one will come anywhere near admiral(£750) so will have to go crawling back to them tail between my legs after telling them to ram it for missinforming me and telling them i'd be going else where £200 more over am incident that i never got any compensation for and will be shafted for an other 3 to 5 years till i can tick the no box.

Ended up going with this one http://www.leconcepts.com/products/lcd- ... ce=Froogle Picture is really good when on a good HD channel.Not watched a 3d film yet but had a look at a few 3d trailers and watched a bit of footy in 3d and was impressed. Not 3d the way i think of it(jumping out at you) but it does give the image alot more depth. Will only get used once ina blue moon anyway. The 2D to 3D conversion was pretty dissapointing, only notice it on a few things but when it does work it its ok. You can download apps for it i don't have an i phone or android phone so don't have a clue how that works yet. Still not played the ps3 on it yet so will need to get MW3 to try it out when the pups sleeping. So a good tv and if it last five years till the warrenty runs out i'll be chuft with that. The 3D glasses have a film tint on them with a tab at the bottom of the lens(inside and out) one blue one red, do i peel these off or just cut of the annoying tabs as it doesn't mention them in the instructions??

So i get punished for a hit and run done on me which the police didn't bother to follow up and i didn't get any compensation from his insurance as he denyed it. Wish i had just delt with him myself now and not involved the police or insurance. Would have felt justice and not been out of pocket!

Insurance is due for renewal on the 14th, got the reminder through from admiral for £700 odd then done a few quotes and got them down to £550 so got them to match it only to find out that i have a claim/incident on my profile which should not have been there.Basically, a van hit my old car , minor scuff on the bumper, the van fled. I then decided to phone my insurance to enquire about this ( if i followed this up by contacting the vans insurance would that affect my present and future insurance to which admiral told me it wouldnt as i was not claiming through my own insurance) so i thought it would be ok, so followed up vans insurance and driver denied it so I left it at that.To claim through my insurance would not have been worth it as price would go up and it was only a minor scuff so fixed it myself and car is now sold.So now insurance database has a claim against me which i never wanted in the first place and putting price up £200. Is there anything I can do?

I know that the 3d isn't useable that often and definatly wont be the future of 3d but most new tvs have it so may aswell get it and use it when i can. Had a good look round comet and currys so have seen a good few. Found this http://www.leconcepts.com/products/lcd- ... ce=Froogle could only see a smaller model of it in currys/comet but the opther 6 series ones look good. Dalos 3d active as its ment to be a better image than passive. Dont really care about the whole smart tv thing as if i want to go on the internet i'll use the laptop or pc as they will always be better but most tv's are starting to come with that also just can't see me ever using that feature. NeilP is your 6 series like the one in the link above?

Our current tv looks to be on its way out so looking for a replacement. LED tvs seem to be the future for now so would like one of them and may as well be 3D(active) if i'm going to splash some cash. I've done a bit of reaserch on plasma,LCD and LED's and passive and active 3d, so have a breife understanding but no experiance really. So if anyone clued up on them could help me i'd appreciate that. Here what i'm lloking for I have a budget of £1000 as its to last a good few years. LED,HD,3D active. Current tv is 46" i think so no smaller but not much bigger 50" max. Has to look nice and modern to keep the Mrs happy. Would like it to be able to convert 2D to 3D. So far only found this http://www.simplyelectricals.co.uk/tele ... d6530.html Any help and advice is appreciated

Right so just bin these ones from ebay and get the ones with the resistor? if so will teach me for rushing into buying cheap mods

Hmm i ordered them but now think i'll hold back on fitting them and see if anyone else has had issues with them. Don't fancy trying to change them mid winter in either a down pour of rain of when its freezing if there going to fail that quick

Yeh only mod is the jwt induction kit, light still hasn't came back on and been working overtime so not fitted the new sensors either. could have been a false alarm.
