Ive got one with filter I can lend you. I can hand it to @Lewis Schwier on Saturday, who I believe lives not far from you. -
Lush fella SUPER update as per and those boots should last you a decade for the front discs, ideally needed to have painted the entire centre boss as you did with the rears.

First action check tyre pressure, very rarely does a garage check this prior to carrying out wheel alignment. If pressure of, swap front axle wheels left to right and see how it drives.

Last night used ONR for the first time, such a strange experience as for the last 20 yrs I've used suds and a hose. Wash technique was pretty, good but seeing the drying towel getting dirty meant working methodically was key. Wash bucket stayed clean till the end, which at least showed the benefits of the 2BW method. No additional swirls added and I used the product in the fashion not to inflict swirls, but to really lean on it to see what it's all about. Impressed and will be using this as my midweek/light dirt wash. Bucket state after the wash After wheels Then the night shots I was dreading...

These aren't LMGT4's, but Rota GTR's This 350z looks mega, really smart

Would love to!! Wow, that's loud. Not took it through the gears yet, but doesn't seem overly loud. This will show your age, to describe it reminds me of the first time you heard a Pulsar GTi-R with a fresh Mongoose fitted would like to know it's dB though. Still wanting a rear under view of your custom set up. Yeah, really enjoyed it!! Every inch got a clean and polish.

Covering all bases I see, that's good. Have you took out the spark plugs, to see if a cam cover gasket has failed? This is also common for the DE's Did you have wind deflectors? they looked good.

Sorry to hear of the oil pressure issues, might have a stuck open PCV. Fresh oil change to 5w40 and fit a magnetic sump plug and drop the oil after another 500 miles to see what nasties its picked up. Loving these pictures, that last one looks indoors WOW

Been out for one quick spin and the exhaust note is glorious. Gives a different driving experience as great sounding system plays such a part. Motordyne ART pipes *heat wrapped Motordyne XYZ with HFC *heat wrapped Thorney Motorsport y pipe back exhaust

I need that vlog, you don't understand haha mate ever hour spent is time well served. Crazy resto, love it!!!

Cheers fella, I used Mothers on the piping after wet sanding and AF tripple (great all rounder, even for stainless) for the silencers and tips. It's better than new, as it's protected now.

For a good while now I've had a saved search on eBay and the forum for an exhaust system. At the time of buying my 350z it recently had fitted a Toyosport system which I really like, hence keeping for so long. With modifying cars you always want to change bits to make it your own. Orally it's very much a sports sound with OEM looks. With the thought to replace, I didn't want something generic. Weren't tickled by a Cobra, Scorpion, Indivdia, Miltek, Ark etc as good as they all are, I fancied something different. Checking every few days for new sales as you do, when a custom exhaust came up to which I thought wow that looks well made and not what one would normally associate with a poorly made crush bent. It's very much ticked all the boxes, 2 silencers (not resonators) forward flow gas, 3' mandrel with slash cut burnt tips. Took the gamble and made the purchase going of uninstalled pictures alone, not knowing anything with regards to noise, fitment or actual quality. Began the process of cleaning and protecting, later discovering it was built by Thorney Motorsport. Fitment was spot on thankfully and it sounds as good as it looks!!! Old exhaust out...... Quick clean up and rust treated, would have done more but it was in between showers and I was itching for the new shiny one. Before.... After.... New exhaust in Absolutely chuffed with it.
