Not sure if this post is allowed here or in the correct place so mods please move / delete if necessary. I just wanted to put these guys on the map for anyone looking for work on their Z. Since I was unable to get my Z booked in at Cougar Store earlier in the year I looked elsewhere local to me. I came across RPM Garage in Birmingham (Erdington / Perry Barr way), they had good reviews on their Facebook page and from the photos were obviously were enthusiasts in the performance car scene. I needed to get my clutch slave cylinder replaced - to be honest I was pretty nervous at getting anyone else working on my Z especially since I'd been told this job is a PITA job to do well and I was going to Japfest the following week. I needn't have worried, the guys there patiently spent a couple of hours bleeding every last bit of air out until they were confident it was done and let me take the Z out for a test drive to make sure I was happy with the work before paying. They only charged for the quoted work even though I was sure it should have been more for the time spent. I've got talking to one of the owners there, Richard, he has a 350z himself so is very familiar with them too which is a huge bonus. Like many trades finding a trustworthy mechanic is a difficult task, and there seems to be an shortage of Z specialists in this area. I said to him I would give them a mention to the club since he is a Z enthusiast himself and hopefully get some more trade their way (although I know they are busy anyway). Not sure he's a member of a club so maybe I'll persuade him this is the best one to join https://en-gb.facebook.com/pages/category/Automotive-Repair-Shop/RPM-Garage-885476884862011/

Hello mate Firstly my apologies for responding to this MUCH sooner, I blame having a 1 month old daughter I've barely been on the forum at all. I wanted to thank you for the time you've spent on this, even if it wasn't the result we wanted. If anything at least I can take comfort that this is just not feasible. It would have been a really useful feature for me and I'm sure many others who squeeze their Z in to a single garage, or just forgetful people ha. It annoys me every single time!! It has left me wondering though about ECU's. I am looking to remap mine next year. I'm a little gutted that I can't have multiple maps put on mine. I wonder if a US ECU can be used for multi maps, and have this feature, and not loose anything else such as PATS. Hmm..... Keep up the good work!

how rude

Probably last meet of the year (will my oil catch can be plumbed in?) 1. Davey_83 2. nissanman312 (Maybe) 3. 14N 4. OnlyAfro (Maybe if the weather is decent) 5. Matt jb88 6. Jay84 7. CLASSIX 8. Killick.z (Weather permitting) 9. Cob1980 (Weather permitting)

Calendar pic I reckon there mate

Good day, even if I did miss the convoy thanks guys. Here's our stand...

I'll join the convoy. Is anyone selling a standard air intake pipe who's going tomorrow?

Bump, still needed.

Apologies I've not been able to make this today

A few of mods since my last post, rear carbon fibre diffuser, ARC v2 oil catch can (which I actually fitted ages ago just not documented yet), rear window decals, and personalised plate which I can't arsed to blank out anymore. At Silverstone Japfest I had a professional photo shoot done by Blue Pig Photography, chuffed with the outcome, here are just some of them... I'm pretty much done with the exterior now (near end of Zeditus? - naa !), it's how I imagined and wanted it to be. Iain.

Nice evening thanks for arranging Davey! And cheers for all the pics guys

Any room for me to come along for a couple of hours in the day for the museum please? Is it £10? Thanks

Hi sorry this is now sold (on ebay).

Baah ok mate no probs

Thought I'd got myself a bargain at £580 new!

If you meet at Melbicks for a short meet may I join for a bit? I'll have to pass on the karting though.

Same - so you'll be fine

LOL no probs. Not speed humps but they can catch up steep inclines such as multi-storey car parks or dropped kerbs if you drive up them at an angle. They are barely any lower TBH. Also depends if your car is lowered already?

Does anyone have a clutch safety switch they don't want / bypassed please? Doesn't need to be working. Thanks.

Nice! Live feed will make installation a lot easier then. Sounds like good progress sofar - well done mate !

Wow, you've gone to town on this. What do you program it with? Or rather what are you programming? I see there's a relay output so how will this work will it need a live feed from somewhere putting in?

Ah thanks guys! Hopefully will catch up with you all on the next mids meet!

Sorry I missed out on this one guys. Having my daughter born at 3am Saturday though is a pretty good excuse
