Hi peeps, is anyone running a 255 35 20 on the front of there Z and if so did you have to roll the arch ?

Thanks in advance

fans not working correctly ?, if low on coolant then it just wouldn't cool full stop, puddle under passenger side is normal its where the condenser drains.

question in the engine bay picture......where are the VVT Solenoids ?, they don't appear to be there is this an early DE without them, on mine 2005 DE they are quiet obvious when you open the bonnet .

Oh go on! Rise!

The Bud Is In Hand......what a glorious day down here on the South Coast

I am not rising ...I am not

MPSS are not N rated in Europe, pilot sports cup 2 are the rears are roughly £450 each, judging by the vid it was a rear that went, scary but nice to know you have a chance to get away with it

so do i but currently every time i chase i get another question like

 

what did you clean them with?

have you cleaned them since last time?

What did you use to protect them originally?

Can we have some more pictures?

 

They have had 2 videos 7 pictures and thanks to your thread i thought i would chase them up today and i got told you only report this on September 1st despite the fact the same stream of messages goes back to august 10th.

 

im no further forward i keep getting told its being investigated with work japan. But maybe im being cynical but it doesnt half feel like im being palmed off hoping i give up

 

So im far from amused atm at having a set wheel that cost well over £2000 that have aged worse than a set of rotas

Yep..know that feeling...it's a wheel ffs it should be made to a standard that at least lasts as long as the stock wheels.

bummer.....hope you get that sorted

FYI I run Judd Wheels & if they aren't genuine I don't know what is , I also resent the inference that I cant drive or park my car correctly again FYI I have never kerbed my wheels ever but over 2 years of living where I do ( sea front ) and the god awful state of the roads around Chichester they are pretty fubbared also the tyre changes have nibbled all round the wheel nuts.

Oh and one last thing the wheel on the left is nibbled to hell and back as is the one on the right

Deep Breath.....

On a side note the comment about kerbing is relevant yes but your wheels will be swiss cheese in two years no matter what you do, just accept it as a given our roads are so bad that the lips will look like you've surfed the edges of kerbs your whole life, the laquer will be holed and the bubbles and cloudiness will begin by year 3 you will need a complete refurb even if you've driven like the proverbial saint.

 

Theroads in the UK SUCK..FACT

Good job I work in automotive paint and refinishing then isn't it

Just be prepared.....it's truly heart breaking when as you wash them every week you see the slow drip drip of decline...and garages and tyre fitters should be forced to go on courses of how to remove alloys without breaking lacquer...fummmm

Enderal....full free conversion of Skyrim and it's EPIC

welcome....lovely car ...where in Hinkley ?

As previously stated most a holes on the road today drive with full beam on permanently...it's an offense but like fog lights it's rarely enforced

Dude take a deep breath and don't be a tit....the clutch is a major component so don't fanny about get the extreme kit from the retailers on the forum , its a known quantity and quality saves lives and engines.

Hi has anyone on here had a gasket or O ring fail on one of these or had to replace one ?, if so is it safe to use a pre owned unit with new gasket or have I got to potentially stump up £200 plus and then £86 labour ?

Thanks in advance

your not alone, there was some research done a few years back that came to the alarming conclusion that most new cars left the factory with misaligned headlights, then there's the fog light on all the time brigade or as seems prevalent down south let's install a switch to disable my brake lights except for the high, oh and the high beam terrorist's.

For anyone interested the full list of work undertaken is as follows

350Z P2/P3 Service inc Brake Fluid Change

EBC 350Z Redstuff Pads ( Brembo )

350Z Front Droplinks

EBC 350Z Front Discs

Clutch Fluid Change ( 2 years ) old stuff was black

Aux Belt

Cobra Y Piece ( now have a complete Cat Back Resonated System )

Superpro Comp Arm Bushes

Front Wheel Bearing

Lambda Sensor

I wont print the cost but if anyone's interested pm me

9.03am arrived at Horsham Developments for a P2 / Cobra Y Piece / Front Pads / Clutch Fluid and a P1147 fault diagnosis / repair / replace.

A little while later a man bearing three sheets of A4 arrived with a worried look.

Front Discs are shot / nearside front wheel bearing has failed and banana arm bushes are shot.

After giving me oxygen for the pelican he showed me the damage ( literally).

5.48pm the car was rolled off the geometry rig and road tested, at no point was any banal question ignored or any point not explained.

To Jez and the crew a huge thank you and yes the drive home was hugely different to our drive to see you, the polly bushes are much firmer and the ride a smidgen harder but the feedback is greatly improved.

See you next year for a P1 and fingers crossed a plenum spacer and remap.

Thanks again

Doug
