    Any update on what this issue was? as I have now got the same issue with my car

    Hi! Yes turns out the ABS sensor wire was being stretched. No idea how, the strut clip was a little bent out of shape. Car is lowered no idea how it happened then but that was easy 6000 miles ago... Either way I removed the wire from the strut clip altogether and it solved the issue as I restarted the car. 

     

    I used a friends snap-on code reader to locate the offending side and corner. I did panic it was going to be a £630 sensor from Nissan but lucky in the end it has been fine for the last 1000 miles. 

     

    Hope yours is an easy fix.

  2. I have an ABS light, Anti Skid light and a Traction OFF light all on the dashboard at once. I was just driving into town for fuel and they came on randomly. Turned the car off and back on again and they disappear. Drive another random length of time 2 mins - 50 mins and boom they reappear. Any advice? Tried to Google it but everything says "check brake fluid" ..... Is it ABS sensor? Mileage is 59,000....

  3. Hi all, (not sure if this is in the right place but I'm struggling to find current info)

     

    I have a 370Z in Black and want to look at fitting a carbon rear diffuser... There is a particular style like the Evo R version but open to others ... My question is are there any UK suppliers? Do Tarmac Sportz still retail them? Any info would help.

     

    I have seen some eBay items but they are all shipped from China etc and quality questions etc.....

     

    Thanks in advance

  4. Hi, I just returned from Donington MSVT track day yesterday 14th Jan in my 370Z! First time its been out since August and on lap 2 my clutch pedal stuck down half way and would not return to the top! Car couldn't be pushed at all even though i did some afternoon laps the issue just got worse until i called it a day at 2pm.... checked my clutch fluid before I left and the stuff was black :'(

     

    Enjoyed the drive around but feels a bit of a waste.... will have to go back again when its sorted. I'm assuming its the CSC, maybe just fluid, but with 57K on stock clutch it looks like its all going to get upgraded...... 

     

    If you have not been yet hope it goes well!!

    I was looking at them too, i tried to find a video on them couldn't find anything. 

     

    I hope they sound good, please update us on the fitment and sound. 

     

    BTW any of you guys running de cat pipes with them? 

    Hey Ranj, nope not running decat, I will do a rev up video and a cold start video so you can hear the noises and will drop a couple more pics on after work tomorrow.

    None so far. Buddy.

    Also fitted mine today and I can completely agree that they are a remarkable improvement over the stock unit. A lovely burble at low revs and really enjoyable sound in the higher rev range.

     

    Ive done about 40 miles and some motorway and I agree there is no noticeable drone over the tyre noise in 6th at 60, 70, 80 + . If I were going to be picky I would agree that the fitment is not perfect. They do indeed stick out alittle more than stock and it might be something I can address at a later date. For now I do have some videos and pictures and will upload them soon. Just some quick ones before I had to and I quote "turn the bloody car off and come inside" :boxing::lol:

    I have just bought them. Seems a great price but concerned about fitment & noise levels/drone.

     

    Will update when fitted.

     

     

    I have also ordered a set and they have arrived. Quality build and they look awesome. I won't get them fitted until Tuesday so if you get them on before update. I will load a few pictures and videos also for anyone who might be interested in them :thumbs:

  8. Hi Guys! 

     

    I currently have a 53 plate GT and i'm in search of interior from the 06/07 facelift models.

     

    I have the heater controls, AC control module and gear lever surround inc hazard switch, gator and heater control surround.

     

    I'm missing the hand brake long large section with heated seat controls, storage etc and also missing the dash storage and 3 pod section. I'm also aware now that I need the knee pads? or not i'm un-sure.

     

    Can anyone help?

     

    Many thanks!

  10. So I've got my BT module for the cradle in the 350Z... '03' GT. 

     

    I've connected my old iPhone 6 which I understand has Bluetooth 4.2 and it connects fine and handles calls great. 

     

    I then (try) connect my new LG G6 (Android 7.0) which I understand has Bluetooth 4.2 and it connects for 5 secs and then disconnected, repeat and again it just disconnected. 

     

    Does anyone on this forum know of a reason why the LG G6 will not remain connected through BT connection but the iPhone 6 works fine?? 

     

    Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

  11. I agree, I have no BT module and there is no guarantee it will even work with my phone if I get one. I'm using a tape aux to play music and answer calls but not with my steering wheel and we'll that's not really hands free is it! Not to mention the wires..... I don't like wires......

     

    Let me know if this gets some traction and the cost involved?

    Dyno readings mean nothing in isolation, it’s the difference before and after that’s key.

    Yeah I understand that but would I expect my 350 to have lost as many or less horses. What have others experienced on the Dyno from stock to not? I would hate to think mine has lost, say 40bhp, since 2003 after 78K :scare:

  13. Yeah good idea. I will look at Geo from local MOT centre, his son has a 350Z so should be a safe enough bet. 

     

    Once springs are changed will get it booked in. I've ordered the Tein set. Erm if I change my wheels to same diameter but wider track eg. 8 to 9.5 at rear will I need geo again?

     

    Thanks guys

  14. Good shout, glad I asked! I would of had no idea they were not KW  genuine.... I will put some money away for next year and look at the Tein Coilovers and like you say adjustable front and rear camber and toe arms. You never know it could be a bargain for coilovers but it could be a risk and at the moment I don't have the time / funds to deal with correcting my geo.

     

    Much appreciated advice!

    You would be well advised to find out exactly what you are getting here, as there is very little info in the advert.

    Usually you get what you pay for and these are definately on the cheap side.

    The advert states that the brand is KW which they are certainly not, unless I am missing something.

     Also it does not state if they are true coilovers or not.

    Might be worth a punt, however that will depend on your expectations.

     

     

    Thanks Alex! For that price expectations would be fairly low, just to get the car sat where I wanted and the ride height and stance. Wouldn't be looking for major adjustability or track times, but would a set of Tein S-Tech Springs 17mm front / 15mm rear work better for similar but less money?
