  1. hi

     

    Has anyone purchased a pair of tailgate struts from SGS engineering?

     

    Do they come with the ball joint bolt that screws into the upper tail gate?

     

    Long story short, I've just snapped my original ball joint bolt..... SAKE

     

    If their struts come with new ball joint bolts, I will make a purchase and return the gas struts I bought of flea bay (that didn't come with new bolts)

     

    Thanks all

  2. Cheers guys... And lesson learnt.

     

    This is my first mot coming up, but I must admit, I have had a fair bit of time to get this sorted!

     

    I promise you I'm not an abuser though... She is very well looked after (bar a new suspension bush). I even drive out of town to the nearest shell garage for v power!

     

    Will get her booked in for new bushes this next week

  3. Hi

     

    It's that time if year when I need to look at sorting out the advisories from the last MoT!

     

    Can someone help me out with a rough price for....

     

    Offside front suspension arm rubber bush (deteriorated last year, so guessing i will need a new one)

     

    Cheers

  4. Hi

     

    Wondering if anyone can help....

     

    My standard bose system has stopped giving me volume.

     

    Head unit seems to be working fine, display works, CDs play, phone connects etc but no volume.

     

    I've taken the amp in the boot out, took it to pieces and couldn't any signs of burnt circuit boards and no obvious burnt smell.

     

    I've taken the sub amp to pieces and again no obvious signs of blown circuits, and all connections seem fine.

     

    The speakers are all making a small popping sound.

     

    I've taken the bose head unit out and all connections seem fine.

     

    The fuse under the bonnet for the radio is ok, is there another fuse I've missed?

     

    Or can anyone shed any light?

     

    Thanks in advance

  5. Hi

     

    Always liked the modern clean look of crystal clear side repeaters, but struggling to find any for the Z.

     

    Found these on ebay and I know for £9 I really should just gamble, but does anyonemhow if these will fit

     

    Copy and paste to eBay: Nissan Interstar 02-11 Pair of Side Repeaters Crystal Clear Oblong

     

    Or... Does anyone know of any others?

     

    Cheers

  6. Hi

     

    Still pretty new to the z world, so please forgive the silly questions

     

    After vowing to keep things totally standard I've been reading about the need to fit a plenum spacer....

     

    Can anyone tell me if just this on its own with a panel filter is worth the money, and what can I expect if anything in turns of gains?

     

    Thanks

  7. Need to see how co-operative they will be when I call tomorrow, it's a 4 hour round trip to the dealer and back and I guess I could insist they come and collect and repair and then delivery?

     

    I'm going to suggest they get a quote for the works, then I take my car to my local (mate run) garage and send the agreed invoice to the dealer to pay.

     

    Also looks like the y-pipe is properly corroded to the cat and don't think it will be a simple swap over...cat might need the bolts whizzing off and then drilled... Have to see how it goes.

     

    Defo planning an upgrade though, makes perfect sense

  8. Thanks for the replies, feel a bit less worried now!

     

    Least if he does try and pull a fast one I've got some good facts to back up my claim.

     

    I've emailed some pics of the blowing y-pipe to the dealer and will give their boss a call Monday morning to discuss repairs

     

    Thanks again for the replies.. Appreciated

     

     

  9. Hi all

     

    Had my 350z for just over a week, purchased from a dealer 2 hours away

     

    Found out today one of the y-pipe flexi's is blowing...

     

    Can I expect the dealer to sort, or will I be putting my hand in my pocket? I have phoned today but the "boss" doesn't work over the weekend and I need to call back Monday morning

     

    Cheers

    Andy
