  1. You only need the first one imho (specifically for the gear changing feeling). My poly mount was £84 inc postage etc from the US but it's a bit noisy, the hardrace one won't be. Look at the difference: Easy to install:
  2. As I said, adjust the pedal first, it's just been recently talked about and iirc there is a guide for it to. Try that, see how it goes for a little while. (I'm just saying that's what I'd do first btw)
  3. If you've noticed it go higher up, yeah that sounds like a warning before the slipping. However, there are recent threads on adjusting the pedal itself. When my one is on the way out, I'll get the full kit that Clark sell.
  4. Just so you know, the molyslip is probably worth plopping in for sure but most of the clunks come from the crappy transmission mount (and probably the diff bushings). I have a Torque Solution poly mount installed for the transmission, no clunks, no odd feeling going from 1-2 & 5-6 like it did before and a far more direct, positive shift. The downside is the transmission noise that's amplified into the cabin but it doesn't bother me. Jez at H-dev sells some Hardrace rubber parts which I probably should have gone with tbh. http://www.h-dev.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=25700 (transmission mount) http://www.h-dev.co.uk/product_info.php?products_id=25701 (engine & transmission mount)
  5. Just search - sorry to sound harsh but new people can't seem to do this, it's been asked or talked about for sure. Go to google (rather than using the forum one). type: site:350z-uk.com kinetix intake or for the US forums (more people have them): site:my350z.com kinetix intake
  6. My one needs a new motor on the passenger side, Sly did the reset a few times and it would bugger up after several up/down.
  7. Looks ok but I don't like it's snout.
  8. I've not popped down there before - aside from a giant box of KK - how do you visit ?

    which wheels

    I personally don't like two tone/colour wheels but either of them in a dark anthracite would look very cool (imho).
  10. Cheers for the heads up, I did reply to a PM (not asking you to disappear ), not sure if you spotted it.
  11. I've contacted a friend that may be able to help me, it seems like the main problem is that the SS pipe still requires a flare on it for the adjoining Kunifer bits to be spliced on ? (that's what a couple are saying at least) In regards to that product, I did get a reply back from Sealey about that tool, it won't work on SS unfortunately but will on the Kunifer stuff. However I did find this which DOES work on SS in-situ as well: This: http://www.sykes-pickavant.com/products/braking-tools/pipe-flaring-tools/68 http://www.sykes-pickavant.com/products/braking-tools/pipe-flaring-tools/584 (less the accessories) + this upgrade which states for SS: http://www.sykes-pickavant.com/products/braking-tools/pipe-flaring-tools/66
  12. My ones are due this week but they did call me 10 mins after I purchased to let me know there is a wait, and if I wanted to proceed or not.
  13. Last question for now, where is that second vacuum hose - I can see the main one when looking at the engine on the left but can't spot the other ! I know that the system has been bled already but I swear there is some stubborn bubbles somewhere, possibly trapped in the caliper piston bores (I'll try the method for removing them and turning them etc). ie: like this sort of thing:
  14. Oooh, did you get a chance to weigh the upper arms yet ? (it's just out of curiosity, I don't even know what the standard ones are ) EDIT: I'll weigh them myself - should have a pair arriving soon.
  15. Cheers for confirming all of that mate Ah yes, I've seen that Ezibleed one as well, just wasn't sure if the cap fits as well (although both companies sell a universal one it seems), and I guess if you don't have a spare tyre around the other one is handy.
  16. Hey chaps, I saw the vacuum hose that goes from the upper plenum to the booster but I couldn't see where the other one is. The condition of the pipe looks good, no visible issues at all, and it's connected properly. To check it's valve, is it just a case of blowing/sucking on the pipe (I was just googling to see how you can check them) ? Lastly, I've always wanted to have my own kit to bleed brakes, useful for me, family etc Would this Sealey VS820 one be ok? http://www.amazon.co.uk/Sealey-VS820-Clutch-Bleeding-System/dp/B000ROARTI It states for a 42mm diameter cap, I'll try and measure it in a moment. Lastly - whilst I was searching around I've always wondered what the hell these two are with L and H on them ? (assumed something to do with AC) (excuse the mess )
  17. The yellows on my one keep my wheels nice and filthy.
  18. Ah nice find there Alex (works with stainless steel ? - emailed them)
  19. I told the insurance I had uprated pads, and iirc they are legal anyway. http://ebcbrakes.com/ece-r90/
  20. Yep, that was just the previous place (Eurospec) which suggested that, however it turns out they either didn't bleed it in the correct order, and that they did this to my rear offside brake pipe when installing the Hosetechnik probably didn't help: 'Need' one of these now: http://www.eastwood.com/professional-brake-tubing-flaring-tool.html?reltype=2&parent_id=50692 I'll check the brake vacuum hose as well mate JUST in case.
