  1. provisionally sold to RickSanchez
  2. As new, unfitted. Cures the "clicking axle" problem. Includes rubber boot, grease and ties. Grease tube has split but contained in plastic bag. Torqen sells these for £200. I bought for £135 from KarateChimp on here, but all I want from you is £100 Selling as I no longer have the car SOLD
  3. Full set of standard Nissan 350z springs, dampers and top mounts / rubber boots for front and rear. Taken off a 350z with 27k miles when the owner upgraded to coilovers. I bought from GeorgeB on here but never fitted. Great condition - original stickers etc still in place. Little bits of surface rust as shown in pics. SOLD
  4. Wiper arms done (to a much higher standard after all the pointers ) and car sold, for an absolute steal, to a very lucky local guy. Hopefully you'll see it around here. Don't know whether I want to as it'll break my heart! Got some bits for sale which I'll put in the "bits for sale" bit. Suspension set and driveshaft spline thing.
  5. Thanks, I appreciate the pointers! Especially as I'm doing the wiper arms next
  6. Mild effort was not enough! After 3 coats of primer and 3 coats of Satin in looked like this: Great from a metre away but bad close up. Learned the valuable lesson that paint doesn't hide bad prep. Sighed a bit, then resanded the piece. Mixture of 320 and 600 again, but mostly 600 and the last bit done under running water - presumably a variation on wetsanding. Very effective anyway. Now looks like this - ready for round 2: The plus side was that I discovered the driver's side was either gloss, or satin + clear coat... need to do some test pieces for a proper match.
  7. Market seems to be a bit slow at the moment so I'm doing a few little jobs and enjoying it (%#@*ing loving it actually) as a second car on nice days. Replaced the battery with a beefier job - that's really improved the starting. This week's job is the scuffed/scratched passenger window switch surround. Looked at a few posts on here of people who'd done similarly, then got cracking. Firstly used the sandpaper we had lying around, then went out and bought some 320/600. A bit of mild effort and it looks like this: Tonight I'll bung on a few coats of primer, then satin black it. Hopefully it'll match the driver's side which a previous owner has redone - if not I'll have to do that. I got my primer and satin black from Amazon, brand is Hycote. Think it was £11 for 400ml of both. Then it's wiper arms.
  8. It's been a lovely few years but now the zed is up on Autotrader as I need an estate for the dog. I don't have enough posts to put it in the for sales section here sadly, but here is the link: https://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201801253099508
  9. Dibs please! I can collect an evening this week that isn't tuesday, or a weekend day/evening
  10. Will you be doing the same black centre section for this one? I really liked that on the old one
