  1. My P3 is due so I was changing the clutch fluid just as a matter of course. Though mine has never went spongy in stop/start traffic so I'm wondering has the slave/line already been done.
  2. Fair enough, I've never encountered any problems with my clutch pedal in traffic etc. How heavy/long would you have to be in traffic before you would notice the issue? Or is there a way I could check if the slave has already been changed?
  3. What's the need/benefit of changing the external slave?
  4. I'm going to change the clutch fluid in my 350 but I'm having trouble finding any good recommendations. Would something like RBF660 be suitable? Also what's the thoughts on a braided clutch line?
  5. Fair enough, was more just checking that it's a somewhat reasonable assumption that it's doable by the average mechanic
  6. I was wondering this too, messaged I'm quite some time ago a few times and heard nothing back.
  7. Just curious if anyone has fitted aftermarket seats and retained the heated functionality. Something like this which has "Heated" as an option, is it just plug and play? https://www.sportseats4u.co.uk/corbeau-rrs-sports-road-seat/prod_1124.html
  8. So it's better to keep it in place then? Does the Nismo lip etc go over them or replace them?
  9. My 350Z still manages to have the wee plastic stock lip on the front bumper, but due to the odd scraping moment it's now sorta loose on the bumper. How are these removed, do they just pull off? Hopefully you can see what I mean on this photo, you can see the plastic grey part below the front bumper that doesn't quite go the whole way across to the end of the bumper.
  10. There's no super available down South at all, 97 RON is available in NI though. If I'm going down there on a long trip I fill up as close to the border as I can to make it in one tank.
  11. I should be able to join in for the North sections at the very least, don't know if you want to leave me off the list as I won't be doing the whole thing though.
  12. Thanks, I'd just requested a callback on your main site before I seen this!
  13. Just a few queries from the linked form you provide. In the type of cover section SD&P and Commuting are listed as two separate options but there is none with SD&P inc. commuting like there normally is. Does the Commuting option automatically include SD&P as well? The section were you put the date your existing policy expires does not have a 2018 option, my insurance is up in Jan, is there any way around this?
  14. So what's the thinking on the rear subframe corroding if it's made of aluminium? Has anyone come across this before? I'd also recommend Dyna Tune, I've even travelled over from NI to get some work done there.
  15. I've came across some threads on random forums that say the 350 alarm is a Thatcham Cat 1, is this true? Just interested in terms of any possible insurance discounts.
  16. The thing I've seen loads of "guides"/YouTube videos or talk on American forums about how the 350 is a good starter car as they seem to think that it is low on power. I don't know where this comes from but it seems to be the standard thing for 16 year olds over there to think that it's a great starter car because of this.
  17. Shame they never gave us a before reading to have any idea what the gains were, they only gave a before/after N2O reading. Dunno about you guys but I've been really disappointed with the 350 videos, only going to be the three of them and they didn't really do anything to it of interest. Seems just a crap forced promo vid for NFS, especially compared to their other build series videos which are great.
  18. 218 at the wheel after the mods, 283 with mods and N2O.
  19. Fair enough, I had thought the aftermarket ECU would have freed up more HP than an UpRev. I was just comparing it to my car which got 240hp at the wheels with just HFC, panel filter, and an UpRev.
  20. Did 218 at the wheels not seem low for a stock car nevermind one with headers/exhaust and a stand alone ECU?
  21. Could they just have been over tightened?
  22. The panel gap on my rear lights seems to start off normal and then gets progressively smaller towards the rear of the car, is there some sort of rubber washer etc. that may be missing that's causing this? My car: Normal:
  23. Mine has an upRev (DE) and peak power is at 5600 RPM, I believe mine drops off as I still have the stock exhaust system in place. I set the shift light to come on at 5500 RPM so I know I'm at peak power.
  24. That's great, many thanks for your help. The can I have at least has a long 8" nozzle on the end so hopefully that'll be of some help.
