might have to change the exhaust

Don't forget to smile when you pass those little white vans

Got to be one of the coolest stretch limo's around. Bet the ladies have fun getting in and out.......................no, I meant I bet their escorts have fun watching the ladies get in and out

Speaking from experience there Dave The red does look to have a good depth to it - better than when Nissan first painted the car I bet.

Clip on 10pm National BBC news last night about the blades being made at H & W and tonight they are showing them being shipped out to a Cumbrian farm and assembled - so it does look as though we are going to see Andrew at work

What are you waiting for viewtopic.php?f=56&t=52396 I'll let you off this once forgetting his name

I think a sequel to "Behind the scenes" is required now to explain all viewtopic.php?f=13&t=44081&hilit=beavis

It is

Thanks Dave One that got left behind during the split:

CJ/Neilp This thread started as a 370 query and the issues with the 350's are not necessarily the same. Unless you think otherwise, I suggest you start another thread

tut tut Al - you forgotten already - see last post viewtopic.php?f=56&t=50423

What a plonker

Following on from what Neil has said......... and nicked from another thread the brake bleeding procedure is: Bleeding Brake System AFS000U0 CAUTION: While bleeding, pay attention to master cylinder fluid level. 1. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF position. 2. Connect a vinyl tube to the rear left air bleeder. 3. Fully depress brake pedal 4 to 5 times. 4. With the brake pedal depressed, loosen the air bleeder to let the air out, and then tighten it immediately. 5. Repeat steps 3, 4 until no more air comes out. 6. Tighten the air bleeder to the specified torque. Refer to BR-25, "Components" ,BR-31, "Component" ,BR- 38, "Components" ,BR-44, "Components" . 7. In steps 2 to 6 below, with the master cylinder reservoir tank filled at least half way, bleed air from the front right, rear right, and front left tires, in that order

The MX5 is still for sale Yes, had a few time wasters but no sale, I now have three cars, of which are all two seaters are you saying you might need 4 seats then

Same for me and makes the lbft torque a shade over 300 at the fly whereas it is about 260 at the hubs and I see from the dyno thread the two are variously quoted, which of course can distort perceptions. Mark @ Abbey certainly shys away from set percentage calcs between the fly and hubs as there are a host of variables - i.e. see here: http://www.rndengineering.co.uk/page_p1 ... horsepower

The fact their other 2 listings for a lip and rear spolier do include the words Nismo style, you would certainly hope that the one Sparky has won is genuine as the ad does not include the word "style" , although just what the damage is another matter. I would take a screen shot of the ad just in case.......

Perhaps there ought to be an emphasis on minimum sentences being set in law - issued maybe when someone pleads guilty, and then a sliding scale up to a maximum which the Judges, Magistrates, prosecution and lawyers can see up front will apply in particular circumstances taking into past record etc. But something needs to be done to deter these brainless morons who are putting two fingers up and laughing at the system as it is.

The MX5 is still for sale

I had a similar sympton with my first (2004) ZED when I first got it. Turned out to be a rear pad sticking - supplying garage clearned out both rear calipers and copper greased the shims/back of pads and problem solved. Suggest you check that first, as a whole cheaper fix than the clicky axle repair and I have to say with the axle issue, and having heard several, you usually hear a series of clicks not just one - get someone outside to listen as you move the car back and forth to help identify the actual noise

So you like the "fangs"? I didn't when the 370 was first released and although on the darker colours they are less prominent they weren't for me on my chosen colour. I also decided to 'match' the wrapping at the rear - having seen a few painted examples on the US 370 forums helped convince me. Beauty of the wrap is that with the aid of some hot air you can remove it. But after 18 months I certainly have no plans to do that and it is as good as the day it was done - well done the guys at rgva (Trader on here). Not sure if you have seen my thread after I had it and the exhaust done (an essential 370 upgrade), but here it is: viewtopic.php?f=103&t=31681&hilit=wrapping On the face of it the car you have spotted looks fine and with low mileage - obviously subject to the usual checks. Likely that the tyres will need replacing soon - check the tread and for a decent set of tyres you need to budget C£1k although a set of Falkens 452's might save you £400, but the sidewalls are really too soft, unless you are soft with your right foot

I got your message

If its any comfort, it treats the mods in just the same way

It was back in May he apologized for not being able to spend time on here and address member's queries and from his lack of posting that situation appears to persist. So lets see his answer and then the question of locking the thread can be reviewed.
