  1. No, it's not been painted and its flexible PU not fibreglass.
  2. only a couple, as I took it off shortly after getting the car as I wanted the front standard.
  3. Both still for sale.
  4. Updated with a couple of pictures showing the filter.
  5. Pop charger, in good condition. - Sold Nismo style PU front splitter , excellent fit. Removed from my 2003. £100 posted.
  6. Now thats what I call a nice set.
  7. What car, what plane.

    Electric cubby

    I've no idea.

    Electric cubby

    Still available, but will be on ebay if I don't get any serious interest.
  10. I have a set of redstuff pads for the front and rear, but as I will need time to sort out my rear axel click, can I just fit the redstuff to the front and leave the rears until I get enough time to fix the click at the same time I replace them?
  11. Methanol is nasty stuff to be messing with. I ran 50/50, but found I got better results with just water, use de-ionised water or filtered especially if you live in a hard water area.
  12. Where abouts are you? I could buy yours and swap with him, I am only in Stafford.
  13. It doesn't cool the engine it cools the air running into the engine allowing you to run more timing without det.
  14. Apart from the black vinyl on the side, I like it.
  15. I ran an AEM progressive kit on my SC'd MX5 and found their kits great value.
  16. Just in case anyone else has this problem, here is a photo of the wire that powers the antenna. Once I connected this up to a 12v power source (I spliced it into the blue an white wire that turns the amplifier on), my signal massively improved and I can now get every station I want.
  17. If you do sell, I may be interested.
  18. Early days yet, and I don't know how accurate the trip/fuel computer is but, I am seeing 35 mpg on the half dozen 40 mile motor way trips I have made. I'm not driving like a pensioner and usually make good progress, given half the chance. I have used the cruise control on quite a few stretches where road works limit the speed using speed average cameras if that makes any difference. I have been surprised by the mpg, as I was expecting mid 20's.
  19. No, the wheels are the standard touring alloys and have never been refurbed. Chances are, it's a build up on one of the pads. I had a similar problem on a Mk1 MX5 and it was only whilst slowly rotating the wheel by hand whilst the car was on axel stands, that I felt a part of the disc catch as it passed under the pads. I took the disc off and gave it a quick sanding, that solved the problem. i am hoping its the same with the 350z discs, but as I need to take the wheels off and clean everything up, it makes sense to buy pads and change them over at the same time. when ever I buy a car, I always carry out a full change of all the fluids, plugs, filters and break pads. That way I can start my own service history and I know what needs changing and when.
  20. Thanks mate. I didn't even notice it was in the wrong place.
  21. Looks like I may have found a solution to my problem. http://my350z.com/forum/audio-and-video/128070-antenna-amp-wire.html I'm at work this morning, so can't check to see if the wire is connected.
  22. Thanks for the reply. Powered amplifier was the the correct term I was looking for. I can't see where I've missed a connection either, I wonder if the Bose unit has its own?
  23. I installed an Appradio 2 in my 350z and despite trying various aerials I can't seem to get a decent signal. I am beginning to wonder if the original Bose provide any sort of boost to the aerial? Does anyone have any idea what might be wrong?
  24. Which pads dust least?
  25. My car stood on my drive for a good few weeks whilst I was away working, this morning whilst on my way up the M6 I noticed that I have a pronounced judder coming from the front when I apply the brakes. I have noticed that even at low speeds I get a bit of judder, but not as pronounced as it is when braking from 70 mph. I think I may need to take the discs off and give them a good clean and check to see if I have any build up on them. As I have only had the car about a month, I don't know what state the pads will be in, so I might as well get a set of new ones. I can get a set of Brembo front and rear pads for £70 or the yellowstuff front and rear for £125. What do members think about the Brembo pads, are they any good? I don't do track days if that makes any difference.
