  1. Thinking of getting the DBA T2s & Hawk pad set up for the front, how have you two guys found them for overall performance, noise and brake dust??

     

    Was looking at some reviews online (American market) and quite a few people were complaining about noise and heavy brake dust

     

    You won't get any noise from the T2 and Hawk HPS setup if installed correctly, they are designed as a fast road pad and will also create less dust than the DS2500's.

     

    That's now our most popular setup and I've had no complaints :)

  2. Morning all,

     

    I've been doing a bit more research and it looks like I'll definitely go for that clutch kit from Clark Motorsport.

    However I've decided to do some other bits while I'm there, mainly the gearbox oil, slave cylinder, braided line swap and fluid. Can anyone point me towards where to get the latter? (I will also look myself, but in the mean time, one of you helpful bods might come through first) and the oil I can get from anywhere.

     

    We keep it all in stock and can offer you a package deal if taking the clutch kit :)

  3. Up for sale is my own Skyline 350GT auto. I bought it from a customer with the intention of using it but I have far to many other projects on the go and end up driving the van everywhere!

     

    Its had 3 former keepers and the previous owner to me has covered less than 3000 miles in it the last 2 years as it was only used on a sunny weekend.

     

    It was imported in May 2005 at 64,511 kms. The odometer is now showing 103,788 (will rise slightly) so the correct mileage is 79,362 miles.

     

    The last owner to my customer bought the car in January 2011 from MVM in Fife and the receipt shows he paid £9995.

     

    There is the last 4 MOT certificates present as well as the current one which runs to January next year, there are some service receipts from 2013/2014 also.

     

    My customer bought the car in August 2014, he had us carry out a full service shortly after. We also fitted a full set of low mileage (30K) Brembos from a 350Z as well as DBA T2 discs and Hawk PC pads all round at a cost of £1200. We also supplied a CAT back Invidia Gemini system and HKS drop in filter.

     

    The car has recently had a full black leather Infiniti interior fitted before passing the car onto me. He had the grill painted black and the roof and mirrors wrapped black. We have just fitted new Tein lowering springs, Eibach front spacers and 370Z 19" Rays wheels with almost new Michelin PSP's.There is some curb rash on a couple of the wheels but overall they still look very smart.

     

    The car drives without fault and is a lovely thing to drive, it looks great on the 370Z wheels. It was serviced again in November last year and I will give it a fresh oil and filter change for the new owner.

     

    The bodywork is in very good condition there is only a couple of very small car park dints one on either side. There is a small scuff on the front bumper and a mark on the front. I can send pictures of these.

     

    Overall its a very nice looking and driving car that pulls very well and sounds great.

     

    Price is £5350, I can remove the 19" Rays and supply wit ha set of 350Z wheels for a reduced price.

     

    I have now polished the headlamps which have come up really well, I will post an updated picture later.

  4. We have a NEW arrival just in from Australia, the 230mm Twin Organic for the long awaited VQ35DE engine offering both outstanding road manners and a huge clamp load making it the clutch of choice for high power road cars.

     

     

    As the UK Sole importer for Xtreme Clutch we are proud to support the Australian based brand which have been producing clutches for 25 years and are Australia's largest clutch manufacturer for both OE and Motorsport. All Xtreme products are stocked here in the UK with spares/support and technical advice.

    This is the 230mm Twin Plate Organic which is design for high power road cars that is capable of handling big numbers and at the same time feel as nice as a standard clutch. You almost wouldn't know you were driving a twin plate.

    The kit includes Alloy Pressure plate, Twin 230mm Organic friction discs and Chromoly flywheel, Release Bearing, fitting tool Spigot bearing and alignment tool all making this the ultimate street kit for big power applications. The kit offers a really light pedal feel and Zero judder with minimal engagement noise and at the same time not compromising its 890 ft.lbs capability.

    The kit is stocked here in the UK and can be delivered Next Day for £1185

     

    We can also offer this same kit in Ceramic or Carbon for Motorsport applications.

     

    *Note* The SMF does offer long life and also performance gains however the flywheel will increase transmission noise which would be previously cushioned from the DMF. For most this is acceptable however if you are not sure about this please contact us and we will discuss this with you.

     

    As the the official Xtreme Clutch UK distributor we offer our full support from technical to fitment with over 16 years experience of Performance and Motorsport clutches you will be sure to get the correct advice on selecting the clutch which is right for you and your application. We also have a network of dealers and fitting centers.

     

    Other Japanese and European Performance Clutches available

     

    Trade inquiries also welcome

  5. The lower control arm is the one the shock bolts to, the inner bushes are common for wear. The other bushing is for the compression or banana are as its more commonly known.

     

    We are an authorised Whiteline dealer and carry them in stock

  6. I have 2 pairs of tickets plus a camper ticket for Carfest North this weekend http://www.carfest.org/welcome/welcome-to-carfest-north

     

    Unfortunately it clashes with SLS at Knockhill this weekend so we cannot go.

     

    I have them on eBay at £495 for the 4 tickets plus the camper (worth £680) but will take an offer or split them.

    PM, email me at ewen@clarkmotorsport.co.uk or call 01330 860999 if you are interested thanks

  7. If you turn on the air conditioning button does one of the fans turn on? If not:

     

    Cooling fan motors failure are a common issue. There is a thread on here about refurbishing them or you can talk to one of the traders on getting a second hand one.

     

    Alternatively, Mishimoto do a full shroud with 2 fans which is cheaper than OEM but you will need to do a little wiring work to fit them.

     

    The latest Mishimoto fan shrouds now come with the correct plus for plug and play fitment :) We have them in stock if required.
