  1. During a recent track day we had the rear left calliper (Brembo) bind up and it overheated. The gold paint is now dark brown, the red brembo lettering is burnt black! 

     

    The calliper now leaks fluid along the seam between the two halves. From researching online there's a little o-ring between the two halves and I guess that's failed. It also seem a nightmare to find. I found these US websites selling them:

    Can anyone link me to a UK supplier or someone that can post to the UK reasonably quickly? 

  2. Hey everyone,

     

    First time 350Z owner and first time forum poster. Bought as a dedicated drift car but I’m not sure what vehicle I should select when looking for parts, especially on eBay. 

     

    Take this short shifter: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Short-Shifter-Quick-Shift-Kit-for-Nissan-Fairlady-350Z-Z33-2003-2007-Models/323386930468?fits=Car+Make%3ANissan|Cars+Year%3A2007&hash=item4b4b5cf524:g:eJgAAOSwN91barfM

     

    If you go through the make and model selection in the Compatibility section, there are 3 different ones available.

     

    Nissan 

      350Z

        2007

          Z33 [2002 - 2008]

            291 HP

          Z33 [2002 - 2009]

            301 HP

            313 HP

     

    Looking at the car I think I have the Rev Up engine, it’s not the HR as no dual air intake and the front of the engine looks like a Rev Up from images I’ve seen on the front engine cover with the markings. Question is, which is mine in the 3 listed above for parts compatibility? 

     

    My guess would be DE, Rev Up and HR for the 3 power figures, but is that it? Would that make mine the 301 HP one? The compatibility check results do change depending which one you select so I need to be sure!
