  1. Edit I have the nuts that came off (with the flimsy castellation tin hats that are the root cause of the problem) but I must have reused the washers. You need to add as many washers as necessary to bring the new castellated nut far enough out that the cotter pin fits properly into the castellation rather than on the edge. That's why the kit comes with 6. I think/must have used all 6 plus the original 2 as well. Sorry can't help with measuring them.
  2. I did the fix myself a couple of months ago using the Torqen kit, it's an easy job. I might have the old washers in the garage to measure up, I'll have a look later.
  3. Nothing to do with zeds, but I gave the car a run out to British day at Refuel on Sunday and it was heaving with sexy machinery.
  4. The quality of Chinese EVs that I have seen would make even Austin Rover turn over in their grave. The Chinese have invented disposable cars.
  5. My take on it is no brand considered the consequences of covid, a cost of living crisis, the end of 10+ years of free finance, and consumers not wanting EVs. They were all convinced the gravy train would never end and they all got it completely wrong. How most Chief Execs still hold their jobs is mind boggling.
  6. They're not building anything to make me want to go into their showroom. Its all mumsy pretend SUVs. And expensive. With awful depreciation. And most touch surfaces are flimsy plastic crap. That goes for most manufacturers not just Nissan. But mostly for me its about not having any compelling reason to buy a new car, since covid I now mostly work from home, so I now just have a 20 year old Toyota 4x4 for daily stuff (shopping, tip runs, carting the dogs around) and the Z for a toy. Car designers have forgotten about creating desire, without which my wallet is staying closed.
  7. I see you've already met her then 🤣
  8. If I'm going to spend £10-£12k on a bodykit, paint, and air lift I'm going to need a long run up with the Mrs! 🤣 I can see it costing me a new kitchen...
  9. Cool. I saw this picture at the weekend and now I'm in 😍 😍😍 Doing some thinking... 🤔 Is it the Amuse kit?
  10. Found the answer, air lift gas 5 preset heights
  11. I've never fitted air bags before, with the h height type is it possible to have 3 positions - down, mid /drive, and high? Or is it up/down?
  12. Is it per car or per person (if I have a passenger)?

  14. You could always bolt the bits to the van for the trip through customs 😂
  15. Hire a van and take a trip on a ferry?
  16. That crossed my mind, I was expecting something worth the effort of importing... body panels made from unicorn fur or something
  17. Refuel @ Cullompton, Easter Monday cars and coffee Its £5 to guarantee entry and parking as the paddock fills up quickly on the popular meets I plan on going, if anyone else is interested it would be good to meet / chat Zs
  18. Screw that idea, the guy doesn't do PayPal and won't send me bank account number so I can cash transfer, and I'm not giving out my card number to a total stranger. Guess I'll have to think again, or go with GTR if I can find it in red carbon.
  19. Is it a strip to stop wheel liner squeaks against the body? In any case, you can remove it, clean/paint/seal the wing, then glue it back right?
  20. Thank you, just watched a youtube video, then this popped up on my search: IN STOCK - 2009+ nissan 370z - red carbon automatic fiber oem shifter knob shift knob Bit pricey though @ $280 shipped, although it says they refund $75 for your old shift knob. Wonder if I can get the bottom black gloss bit wrapped in a bit of leather with red stitching so it matches the wheel exactly. Would look epic together.
  21. New steering wheel from Torqen... well I was getting bored 😎 The quality is top class Anyone know if there is a matching shifter? Haven't found one yet

    Lip kit

    Whats the difference between the Amuse vestito kit, and the fly1 AMS kit, apart from the AMS being half the price? They look very similar.
