In that case I can recommend Superpro bushes, the honeycomb mesh on the inside retains grease. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/224577346637?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=n1ABvbYFRHW&sssrc=2349624&ssuid=UVSJOLRJSwe&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

That's an idea, plugs and coils out pull the fuel pump fuel and crank. That'll blow any stale fuel out the cylinders.

Truly brilliant work and now a well sorted Zed back on the road

Lovely work, enjoyed that. An alcantra steering wheel feels so sporty, nice move. Enjoyed that and love the vid with the commentary from Toto 😄

Very strange with the alarm not working, but I still don't think NATS as it wouldn't crank. Might be worth calling out your breakdown service for home start.

Ello n welkom Sounds like a keeper, stick around

Another false claim, you've not owned a Cayman 987, the vehicle in question otherwise it's pointless information, nor a 350z coupe (107.5kg less than the Roadster) again the vehicle in question. Was that Tesco or BP fuel? as the mpg looks comparable.

In the ability to count? great rebuttal as per

I would disagree with that statement. Porsche service menu pricing is more than Nissan. A Porsche Indie fix rate servicing will be more than say Tarmacsportz or Horsham see below. Note the 20k device with RPM which then requires the additional brake fluid change £65+vat which HDev includes. HDev prices are inclusive of VAT, RPM's aren't. Effectively a 987 P1 service is 115% more expensive and a P2 55% more expensive. Also a 350z resale prices isn't hurt not one iota by having home servicing in the service book. A Porsche's value is aided by having full dealer or indie service history. So if the owner (or a pal) are capable of changing the oil, the filters (documented) then even pay for a brake fluid change every other MOT you will save on garage labour rate year in year out for routine servicing. That's just the basic unavoidable P1/P2 costs

Entry level 718 money hatches, but which is best 🤷🏽♂️

Not good at all pal and you'd never know until you next go to open the boot 😔

After driving one and have a good nose round, only you can't make that decision. I think a 350z is possibly a better prospect of you wish to modify, ie wheels, suspension, interior engine, exhaust, subtle body additions as there's way more options due to aftermarket support. To keep and leave fairly stock a Z34 Nismo would be a better choice. I find with a Nismo the more you do to them, makes them almost stop being a Nismo as they certainly won't look like one if you swap out even just wheels and mess with the body. If you're not concerned with keeping a Nismo looking like a factory Nismo, you might as well saved yourself the 8k over a GT and spend it on wheels, exhaust, suspension, tuning and seats resulting in a quicker and better handling car.

JAE, now that's a blast from the past. Waking up after a session with your mates, in a field of dew surrounded by Japanese cars with folks cleaning their cars early before the Sun got too warm.

You did well with that temp fix pal, quick thinking too. Hopefully get it sorted before long. Only two reason a person would do that, jealously or cognitive impairment.

Hansburger: Solar Orange 350Z VQ37HR
davey_83 replied to Hansburger's topic in Member Build Projects
I bet that is loud!! You did well as I always thought the Z34 y pipe was a tad longer than the Z33 offering. Right underneath you bum where you use to have a massive silencer, it's now a full merge!! -
Well just goes to show really. The Z when driven properly, is a very capable car on track. Exactly, those pair are hardcore hatches with track work in mind too. In their class nothing German gets near them on the twisty stuff.

Prove it, RCZ, S2000, RX8 6sp and 3.2 TT - as it was mentioned......

You've done it again, even after editing your own post. The 986 and a 987 are different cars. The 986 had its own facelift around 2002. The 987 Cayman is a first gen Cayman not facelifted 986 Boxster with a roof. What's even worst/sad, is you said it was a error ok a typo in essence, but then you went and dug a new hole and stepped right in.
-
You're right, it's not dishonesty it's a clear lack of basic understanding. How can one begin to compare a 350z to a 987 Cayman if you don't actually know what a 987 Cayman is. That was an absolute clanger to say it's a 986 with a tin top. It's like saying a VW Golf Mk7 is an Eos with a hatch. For this particular discussion all his credibility went out the window with that one statement, as it's clear he doesn't know what he's actually going on about.

I paused there after reading his comment and didn't want to risk another dishonest discussion

Yes another fantastic little car and said to be the best in class for its price point ☺️
