  1. I should add that it is possible to run a rear wheel on the front and put the 350 spare on the rear, in the event you did have a front puncture and your suspension set up was OEM, and in that way a spacer would not be necessary, but no doubt the anti-skid light would be having kittens and I would only do that in a dire emergency what with the hassle of having changing wheels around.
  2. Yes, but you need spacers on the front to clear the calipers.
  3. Didn't you spot the dropped jaws - by the time the brain kicked in over the testosterone you were gone..... You would get lots of waves if you found yourself in North Wales this coming weekend
  4. Do it in two sections Andy (both Saturday and Sunday) and as the 370 holds 5 stored routes you one left over for your trip up to Moreton on the Friday
  5. I see there are 5 today, including two of our regulars - Ian and madmikester - happy birthday to all
  6. Just read this thread and tickled me when I saw these But then I do qualify for both Back to the serious discussion........
  7. Same as the 370 when I tried an auto. Surprised to hear Ferrari have done that. Oh, an another excellent write up Dan - if you get fed up with your day job you ought to turn your hand to being a road tester journo (might upset most manufacturers though if a Ferrari gets so many less than excellent scores )
  8. Have a good one James
  9. List update - LAST CALL IF YOU HAVE ANY CHANGES TO YOUR DETAILS Wales 2014 list - for updates.pdf Thanks
  10. Good thread idea But moved to the motorsport sub forum, given its purpose
  11. Without doing a count but using gut reaction, I would say that around 40% of the forsale ads, when first submitted, get disapproved because there has been a clear failing with the rules. And yes we are still seeing ads being placed in the wrong sub-forum - the two 350/370 parts for sale were created to meet member's wishes Then there are those where items are being offered for free - they might not not tick all the rule boxes, (and certainly on price alone ) but we try to use a bit of commonsense. And yes, if the thread turns into a bidding/auction style event then it is likely to be locked. But it will be good to see what the membership feel about how the rules are being applied
  12. Don't believe the owner is a member on here but his car is well known to us http://www.350z-uk.c...hl__silverstone
  13. That is almost certainly the thrust bearing - quite normal and I suspect that given your starting issues you are just paying keen attention to what is going on with your car, which you have never had to do before, but the bearing noise has probably been there all the time
  14. Thread locked then
  15. Moved to 350 subforum
  16. The sluggish wiperrs might suggest the battery is on the way out - not sure how old your ZED is but we are hearing of more battery failures (obviously) as the cars get older. Do the headlights also brighten up when you rev the engine? - another sign of a weak battery.
  17. Not unusual for sensors to "trigger" when you engage reverse - what is different now for you? With the sensors I had on the previous 350 - they are a dealer fit so they can vary up and down the country depending on which installer they have used, you could ease out the sensor from the bumper and by pulling the wire behind after a few inches there was a push/pull connector that linked to the wiring loom, which would mean you can stop the noise immediately. And just maybe there might be enough slack to do a wiring repair whilst pulled through the sensor holes nearest the exhaust? Just a thought...

    Warranty

    I changed the exhaust in the first few weeks of picking up my 370 in January 2010 and had the car serviced at Motorline, Tundbridge Wells for 3 years, who I and others have found very fair and helpful. Nissan agreed to a gearbox change just before warranty expiry and the exhaust (and some other non OEM parts) didn't get thrown at me as an excuse not to do the work. Quite sure it would only apply if a non OEM part was seen to directly affect any failed OEM part(s), so you should not worry.
  19. Is there an age limit there? Now that does tempt me.
