Bam

Definitely interested in these - will pm you now bud

Yeh I did put a lot of money down in the raffles to be fair, but still quids in!

Now I just need to win a Delta Integrale from Dream Car Giveaways and I'll have made all the money back 

I built a new PC recently, 10700k, 64gb (got a good deal lol) of 3200 ddr4, and I was fortunate to win not one, but two(!) MSI 3060 Ti's

I believe the Zakustech and Tarmac Sportz ones are made of ally (other than the carbon ones), not heard any bad stories...yet? 

I could very well be interested after seeing a prototype mate 

Not quite what you're after, but orange with rear louvres. Pics of a guys zed off the Tarmac Facebook page

A bit random, but does anyone have an OEM backbox handy they could measure for me please and provide the dimensions, for it to fit in a box?

Trying to source a box big enough to courier one in but the exhaust is at a friends garage and I can't get hold of him

Sorry forgot to update this. Ordered a new OEM set from dealer last week

How much were they from the stealer?

I enjoy watching your videos, they're always very detailed!

Can I ask what the song is called at the beginning and end? Random I know but it's proper catchy 

Wow this is an incredible amount of attention here, and it looks absolutely fantastic because of it! Hats off to you sir 

Definitely a no from me, whilst I can appreciate the work gone into it. 

I really don't understand the abundance of big gay wings I'm seeing on the Facebook pages, especially on almost standard cars? Am I alone in thinking they look completely out of place and just generally, a bit sh*t?

Hiya mate, that is a beautiful looking 350. Saw it for sale on Facebook, did you not buy it from that guy directly then?

Because I’d like to think the intelligence level of the forum is somewhat higher than that of a parsnip?

I like parsnips. 

I've bought some Lamin-x film for mine, but I have read reviews about it creating hairline cracks in the lenses where the film traps heat in the units..?

Haha uh-oh, from reading all the previous discussions on various forums I thought I may be opening a can of worms with this topic 

2nd dibs please incase Harry changes his mind

VERY debatable if these kits actually do anything. Look nice though.

 

If you think you have a grounding issue causing issues then clean all the current grounding points first - Nissan kindly built the cars to work well without need for extra grounding straight out the factory 

Yeh I've read a lot of discussion on them to be fair and completely understand the reason behind the arguement!

Will be cleaning up the ground points as I go along anyway, but we've got some 4AWG at work just going spare so I thought I'd make a set up just to rule any grounding issue out

Found this, will be similar for DE also 

 

 

That's great, thank you!

Does anyone have any links or saved pages, or even hard copies of an installation guide for a grounding kit for the DE?

I know they have mixed reviews, but I'm currently making my own kit up to attempt to sort out a hesitation problem around 1.5k revs. I've read about bad earthing contributing to problems like these so just gonna give it a go.

I've searched the forum but all I can find are broken/deleted links.

Cheers

Congrats! You win the top prize of being my go to guy/gal when I get stuck with my car lol. I’m not the most competent when it comes to DIY/car stuff lol. I’ll keep my eye open for you on the Littleton roundabout on the A350 if you go to work that route 

 I'm not overly great myself mate but I'm happy to get stuck in when my car isn't needed for a couple of days  If by Littleton you mean Semington then yes, keep an eye out!

Welcome, blue coupe 350 from Westbury here! Drive to Devizes for work every other day 

Sorry you did literally just say that!

Ok thanks Alex, will see how this fares and contact you if and when needed. Thanks again

Yeh I did have to prise them off, cleaned them up and lined them up with the stainless one. Bit of a mish but we'll see how it pans out 

Oh I didn't realise, I thought they were for fast road use  too late now I guess...at least they'll be easier to come back off if I have any issues 

Thanks for your help mate  Out of curiosity, where can I buy these shims from? Is it weird that they're not already with the pads and bonded to them?

As well as the pins, R clips and the spring plate, all that you require with the DS2500 pads are the anti squeal shims which you will have to purchase separately if you want to fit them.

Ah bugger, ok thanks Alex much appreciated.

I assume the stainless shim is anti squeal? I've ended up building them together with the other shim that was on the original pads now, like so. Think this is acceptable or no?

Quick question guys: sorting the rear brakes out (Brembos) and **** me it's like they've never been changed...the inner pads were basically welded to the discs  anyways. Both inner and outer pads have the stainless clip that fits on the back of the pad, all good.

But all 4 pads also have this metal backing clip as well, and the outer pads have the little spring clip as shown in the photo also - I assume it's a wear indicator? The big shims appear to be bonded on, the stainless ones just fell straight off. Do I need to prise these off and re-use them? I'm using Ferodo DS2500's and there is a little square recess where I could place the little spring (wear indicator?) clip from these old pads. Any thoughts?

And me!
