  4. one for the mods maybe?

     

    i dont know why but i can't sign in via tapatalk as i always have done. other forums work fine but when i try with 350z uk it says there is a network error. been going on for a few weeks now. finally remembered to give it a try on a laptop and as you can see im in no problems.

  5. Does anybody know where I can rear carrier bolts for the brembos? Assume they are they are same regardless of me fitting them onto my skyline 350gt or a z

  6. Was it genuine Nissan cam sensors that were fitted or did you supply them with aftermarket ?

     

    If the latter then that will probably be the issue.

    Oem as I know they're pretty much the only ones that work. I did an ecu reset myself and car is currently fine!!

  7. First off, what are the codes?

     

    How many miles are you actually doing between oil changes? Not relevant to the issue I don't believe, more a case of I'd say you're changing far too early and wasting money unless you're tracking it loads or using particularly crap oil :lol:

    They haven't told me exact codes (why didn't I ask!!?) But they said the codes for bank 1 and 2 camshaft sensors.

     

    I'm pretty sure I'm changing the oil more regularly than is necessarily needed but I don't think that will cause the issue either.

  8. Is there not an inspection plate on the front to observe the tensioner? I'm sure it's extension can be checked to see if a chain is needed, before ripping the whole front off.

     

    Edit: http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/77315-chain-tensioner/

     

    This is why I think they have no idea what they are on about. I have zero rattle or even any extra noise, I've never had any start up issues, and they said to me the max the chain should be is 11mil but examples I find are all over 11mil?

     

    I've not even done 44k yet oil changes at 6month intervals... But my eml light is on so there must be something up and I can't be my two new camshaft sensors. I thought he was gonna tell me it's o2 senders cause of decats (even though I have spacers)

  9. Took my car to nissan today for camshaft sensor (the other one went in October) and they changed it no problems. Then after they turned car back on eml came back on so they ran another diagnostic which said both sensors are now gone!

    Knowing that they can't be gone as they are both new, the mechanic believes that the timing chain is most likely stretched so the next step is to take the front end off and measure it and if it needs to be changed I should start saving up!

     

    I'm on 44k miles, my car isn't making any funny noise, took it to get diagnosed IMMEDIATELY after it showed same symptoms as when the other side went, there has actually never been any start issues, he also said that the aboslute max it should be is 11mil but I've just had look around online and seen people talking about 14-19mil at time of change?

     

    Need advice has anybody been through this or have any helpful input?

  10. Post Revival!

     

    I'm looking to buy one of these now and get it in. So just to confirm it is definitely safe to replace my transmission cooler with one I should go thermostatic and 10rows as Too many rows (next option is 19) may cause a problem?

  11. I wouldnt say mine sounded any different to stock, but either way, stay away from Megan. Good luck with your search.

    What brand did you go for?

  12. I think I've gathered most people's thoughts on performance and headers. But if I can get a decent set for a reasonable price I'm happy to have them fitted and enjoy the sound.

  13. Anybody had any experience with their parts? Namely headers. Am I right in thinking they're mostly no good?
