  1. Hi Guys,

     

    I would really appreciate your help!

     

    So about 3 months ago I sold my much loved 350z to a great guy from Scotland. Keeping in touch and I believe he is already really enjoying driving her all over the amazing Scottish B roads.

     

    After over 2 years I spent most of my evening hours on this website and I must admit it became an obsession! Carried out loads of work to my zed and enjoyed every minute of it! Thank you clark motorsport, Tarmac, admin, gareth, Bob! and so many more!

     

    Now i have bought my self a £400 MX5, mk2, 65k milage, 2 owners, from a lovely man that just needed it off his drive. genuine bargain! so i thought i would start turning it into a track car and putting videos on youtube as its get upgraded.

     

    heres the channel..https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLxOR3kdpIHcPOE3z-QXnOw

     

    i would really be grateful if you can subscribe and like the first little trailer. I will be uploading as much as i can!

     

    All the car needed is a really good clean, alternator, battery and a service! drives like a beaut! Just put Coilers on it and its looks and driving smart!

     

    Look forward to seeing your comments!

     

    Cheers

    DBA rotors, not DNA. ;)

     

    You'd be better off performing the window reset procedure than explaining it in the ad. It's not difficult to do and it means you can remove that fault from the ad entirely. As a potential buyer my first thought is always "if it's so cheap/easy to fix, why hasn't it been fixed?".

     

    Other than that it's a pretty thorough ad. GLWTS :thumbs:

     

    I have tried a few times and never got the timing right. I'll give it ago again then take it off. Well pointed on the rotars !! Whoops

  4. If I'm honest you are better just to buy new for 100, i have a second had one installed with 30k on it and cracked on the flexi. Meaning it blew more than my old one.

  5. Hi everyone, love some help tonight to put my mind at ease.

     

    First of all ...after two years of ownership, lovingly caring for with lots of servicing, complete underseal, T2 Dna discs, hawk pads, tein springs, all the paint work refeshed re-spraying front and rear bumpers, front wings and taking out any door dents, complete mop and detail, brake lines, wheel refurb, complete new scopion exhaust and y pipe...list goes on with other bits.

     

    But with all this love she's not returning me much back!

     

    Recently my the front left starting knocking badly, took it to a garage and they struggled to find the issue. 2nd told me it was the upper control arm. Replaced, but nothing wrong with it at all!! £75 plus labour down the drain. I am on here all the time and confident It is the banana arms from previous threads. took it to a 3Rd garage and what a surprise, spilt and worn bushes on the banana arms.They a going on Friday as well as belts and a service. Fingers crossed that fixes the issues.

     

    Then someone hits my car and doesn't own up, splitting the rear bumper, breaking three clips and pushing the indicator light back. Took it straight to a body shop for repair. Collected it last night and he said the rear light had blown. No big deal get a new bulb and pop it in.

     

    The repair guy got me another bulb and popped it in. Before it was put in I had all lights working other than the rear left side light. Turned it on and now I have no rear lights, no brake lights, no front side lights, no rear number plate lights. Reverse works, indicators works but I also have the EPS light on the dash, traction light on and abs lights all on.

     

    so...fuse box, checked the normally one next to the battery. None of them seem blown. The other I can't find. US sites say it's under the foot well drivers, it's not after pulling it all apart. Others say it's hidden behind the normal fuse box under the battery flap.

     

    So. Have I just blown a fuse? Is it the main easy to reach fuse box or the one hidden away somewhere.

     

    Help is appreciated!!

  6. Covered many times, 25 on the back 20 on the front. Use branded ones not cheap Chinese. Take them off for track days though

     

    For 18" Ray's maybe, but not for 19" LMGT4's surely.

     

    No your right, 20/15?

  7. Somerset, Just underneath Bristol. I the front two shocks. front left is apparently buggard however not completely sure. Could be lower arms. So doing a little bit at a time to see what it is. Pricing welcome. If you want some old stuff lifted from your loft let me know!
