HA yeah got the bolts now too, just to put it all together now, tomorrow night it should be done! and i dont get that picture? what happened there?

Would love to have money to throw like this! great job your doing there dude!

Ta dahh... Told you im good, 2 hours of seriously precise drilling my dad did one, i done one, so well done i didnt even need to retap the holes, the bolts went straight in. this time you can see the small X where i lined up the dowell lol! just waiting for nissan to get me 3 new bolts. should all be back up and running tomorrow! will be done in no time! now i know how it all works, i could have one in and out in 2 hours easy! Thanks to those who believed in me lol.

Uh oh.....

I was in two minds when you mentioned it yesterday! looks epic dude!

and checking my bank balance... lol

I'm not that bad at this kind of thing, lol i've never had troubles like this in the past, done previous clutches fine! mind you, never touched the flywheel before haha!

Meh, i'll get a pro when i brake it even more. i'll get there! keep my chin up lol

I'm literally in the process of installing this: http://www.driftworks.com/driftworks-superfly-350z-vq35de-lightweight-chromoly-flywheel.html And: http://www.eurocarparts.com/ecp/c/Nissan_350Z_3.5_2004/p/car-parts/car-transmission/clutch-and-associated-parts/clutch-kit/?641701280&1&230bd4a98f9fb836228fe2322cd2454ef19cce46&000069

The bolts will be out by tonight, i've got someone working on them as we speak. i'm always in a rush lol. need to get things done before its dark as i work 10-6 at the moment its a bit hard with just 3 hours.

Cant wait to have a proper drive in my zed!!

Anyone know where i can get the bolts? theres a couple sets on ebay but i need them today if possible!?!?

My previous: B16 Turbo del sol 300 ponies but just felt out dated, so bought a zed! Next car i'd like a TT supra!

Np!

got a stud extraction tool to use, if that fails going to drill them out and retap if i can?

Thought i'd add a couple pics i took over the weekend down in dover with the sun out! please dont hate the quality you'll never guess what i took the pictures with lol:

Also does anyone know, can you change that whole center part? the part with the bolts in it? is it a hard job? and where would i get the part, only nissan?

Bro, i got this. LOL! Ok so i've destressed now, and myself and my dad made a start yesterday about 3:30pm mike turned up about half hour into it and didnt really need to do too much, wow, friday night we had far too many people on the car trying to do different things and we started at 7pm and it took until it was dark to get it off, yesterday, within mike being there for 10-15 mins, we had the whole box removed and off the car, took a total of 45 minutes and that was taking our time. ok so now we've made an even bigger boo boo, dad not thinking at the time when we put it on the first time, used the snap on gun to put the flywheel bolts on.... oops, now taking them out again, as a result this has happened... Oops! so we left it at that. The main issues where the timing was not right, gutted as it was only 1 bolt out lol so close to being right haha! and the noise was the thrust bearing that we had damaged in the process. So todays job, ordered new thrust, and drill bit to remove the broken bolts and no we already tried everything, mole grips the lot. nothing would budge the bolts, they are wayyy over tightened and i think the head has caused them to mold themselves in lol! but hey im a happy bunny, now i know how to do it, i can get the box off just me and dad in about half hour! and it should be straight forward getting it all back together once the bolts are out! no other bearings are damaged happy days! Heres it all out: Can now also see what Darren first explained about the Y pipe and a melted carrier bag lol.

Pm'd you back!

Welcome!

Taking a crack at it again tomorrow. Cant get any of the bearings in time so hopefully its just the flywheel on wrong but ill have to see! Anyone can feel free to pop to the above postcode lol food will be provided!!

I suffered big time 2 years back for 2 months constant anxiety and panic attacks pm me as im going to sleep now but ill explain so great breathing techniques that helped me get over it all!

Its horrible laying under car! Ha the zed mobile sounds interesting!

Literally lost the tiniest bit of oil like 1 run down my arm not even enough to get to the floor lol. Yeah done thrust bearing. Damaged that first getting it on the old centre piece but it was fine after but im going to pick up another one today just to eliminate anything. Im located in E6 3HU. Cheers

I had the same issue last week turned out to be my brake light fuse had blown!
