  1. I've been giving my car a proper going over with loads of different products. I did the following Meguiars clay kit. Auto glym hd cleanser. 2x coats ag srp. 2x coats poorboys diamond white glaze. 2x coats ag extra gloss protection. 2x coats collinite paste wax I did 2 coats of each product to ensure I didn't miss any. With cleaning the car as well this is getting on for 8 hours. I've done it over a couple of days. My question is how often to reapply any of the above? If the egp is keeping the srp and glaze protected and then the collinite is supposed to last a year will I be wasting products waxing every week? For example if in 2 weeks time I put some poorboys or srp on it will it go through the collinite wax and get to scratches or will it just cover scratches that's happened since the wax? Hope this kind of makes some kind of sense Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
  2. I wouldn't mind this, I'd be camping if I come. Put in for a days holiday on the Saturday as I'm supposed to be working until 7 so fingers crossed Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
  3. Are these still available and is the price still £15? Are they are good match to the steering wheel controls?
  4. If you get one with a motorised screen it'll catch on the top. Mine did and I had to cut/file about 3mm from the top of the facia. I contacted in car tech where I bought it from. They got the same facia and stereo out the back and checked, confirmed what I was saying and updated their website to reflect this Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
  5. I wouldn't sell......but my 350 is pretty much the same as yours 04 with 66k, it's had wheels refurbished and just had a load of paint. I wouldn't sell for less then 7k but between 6 and 7k us where I think it would be. I'd keep it in the family and get a manual 300zx tt I've always liked them Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
  6. These are not cheap, £115 is the normal price for them. £115 from mtec, h-dev and loads of other places. I got mine on a GB for £75 direct from goodridge.......That's cheap. Only thing it could possibly be is to have stainless fittings instead of zinc Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
  7. Thanks for response. Mainly driving is commuting to work with a fairly fast drive every other weekend or so. I also wanted low dust so think the red stuff is the perfect pad but unfortunately I can't stretch to them at the moment. Got my car back from paint shop a month ago, then sons birthday I need 2 new front tyres and need new discs so just wondered if I got the £38 brembo pads if they would be worse then oem? And also are mintex pads considered a performance upgrade or just as good as oem? Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
  8. I want to change my brake pads. Are the oem pads you get on a 350z the brembo sport pads which cost about £120 for the fronts or the normal brembo ones that cost about £38 for fronts? If they are three £38 ones, what are they like compared to mintex and ebc red stuff? Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
  9. Yeah don't think that'll do it. My wife was only saying a couple of days ago I spend too much time on here, the next day and I can't get on!! Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
  10. Just tried again and this is what comes up Internet could not load the web page because www.350z-uk.com took too long to respond. The website may be down or you may be experiencing issues with your Internet connection. Check your Internet connection Check any cables and reboot any routers, modems or other network devices you may be using. If it is already listed as a programme that is allowed to access the network, try removing it from the list and adding it again. If you use a proxy server... Check your proxy settings or contact your network administrator to make sure the proxy server is working. Says this every time but there is no problem with my Internet. I've tried it on my tablet and another phone and doesn't work on anything over my wifi Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
  11. Not yet no, I tried beans but that didn't work so I didn't think custard would work? Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
  12. I haven't used my tablet for months. I'll charge it and give it a go. If it will work on another device how do I fix it on my phone? Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
  13. might be temporarily down or it may have moved permanently to a new web address. That's what I get when I try and join on website. Trouble is i don't get a 4g signal at home so can only access it when I'm not at home Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
  14. Lol bit extreme selling the house, I'll put it to the wife. On tapatalk it says the forum is not supported, then says please sign in. I try to and then nothing happens. Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
  15. I know this is in the wrong place but wouldn't know where to put the thread Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
  16. As above really, since Wednesday night I have not been able to get on the forum whilst connected to my home wifi. I am at my mums now and I'm obviously on it fine and when I'm out and about using my mobile Internet it works fine. I can still go on other forums and use the Internet fine when I'm at home just won't let me on this one. Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
  17. Thanks for the info guys. I think this is going to give me a right headache but I'll give it a go Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
  18. Just fitting my pioneer head unit which so far has taken me ages but is going fine. I've got a reversing camera that fits into the numberplate light. I haven't really got a clue how to wire it or where to run the cables. Anyone know of a guide to help? Also could do with a guild on how to take the interior plastic near the handbrake out so I can put my USB leads to the cubby the original Bluetooth is in. I've had a look but can't find either. Any help would be good. Thanks Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
  19. I'm going to be fitting my new pioneer stereo next week. It comes with a hdmi port but no lead. Is it worth buying one and putting more cables through the car? Does anyone actually use a hdmi on a stereo, I can't imagine sticking a Xbox to it. It already has 2 USB ports and it has mirror link Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk

    Tyre wear

    Thanks for the offer Mike but I'm going to go for what I've already got on the back. Hankook ventus v12. Not a bad tyre and certainly not the worst but I want them all to match as the back have only done 5000 miles. Ideally I'd get all 4 done for mpss but having just spent a load on bodywork and paint, and I'm fairly sure I need new front discs as I get a peddle judder when I brake I just can't afford all 4. The car is not actually lowered, well it all looks stock from what I can see. Looks like I'll be getting wheel alignment looked at then. Is any one place better then an other?

    Tyre wear

    Got a bit of uneven tyre wear on both fronts on the inside. Has the previous owner set it up like this to improve handling or is it totally wrong and need doing. There is only about 2.5mm left on the tyres anyway. If I put spacers on will this make it worse? Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
  22. Lol, I wondered where that was going. Not a fan of srp then. Funny how some people hate it and others think it's awesome Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
  23. My work is 6.5 miles away. If I go there and back for 5 days and don't use the car for anything else I get 23mpg. That's 2 miles at 50mph and 4.5 miles on 30mph through town. Although when I go work work at 4am I'm not exactly stopping and starting but am on the way home Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
  24. I've had my car parked in the garage for a week now since I had the nismo kit fitted and sprayed, as well as rear bumper, boot and bonnet. I want the paint to look as good as it possibly can as will never be as mark free. The car has also had a full machine Polish. I was going to wash it, give it 2 lots of auto glym super resin polish. 2 lots Poorboys diamond white glaze. 2 lots of auto glym extra gloss protect. 2 lots of g3 super gloss paste wax. Does this sound about right? I also have a new bottle of auto glym hd cleanser. It it worth using this before the srp? Am I doing things in the right order? Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
  25. Thanks Jay, it doesn't look bad I suppose. The spoiler is genuine nismo usdm. Which when I bought it is thought it would touch but it's only the jdm one that does. Looks like it's been debated a few times before, check this out https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/37924-genuine-nismo-v1-rear-spoiler-sold/&ved=0ahUKEwjeqq_ossXMAhUCIcAKHSmuDjwQFghEMAo&usg=AFQjCNEatNKphfWUZ8rbd_b13AMEYlFzKA Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
