Er, I found out that Ozzie hails rom Zimbabwe Chris
But yes, some cracking photos from Bruce, and with a fixation on my rear end
Be great if he could meet up with in Wales with you Will where the ZEDS really add to scenery
Ebized ?
Had a 276bhp and then a 296bhp and now the 370, which is quoted as 326bhp (Europe) and 332 bhp (USA).
Not sure where you get the 287 figure from but here are the official fiqures for the 350 series (the PS and BHP fiqures are often confused):
VQ35DE: 276 BHP = 280PS
VQ35DE Revup: 296BHP = 300PS
VQ35HR: 309BHP = 313PS
Many thanks for organizing the meet Paul and and for the convoy Darren. Good to meet you and lots of other members and I think Will and his passenger Bruce enjoyed some spirited driving in the run down from Horsham
Weather did put a little dampner on the day but good to see 17 Zeds (and 1 GTR) turned up
Just a few pics to kick off and before the rain arrived so a few late arrivals got missed out, mentioning no names :
At the Horsham meet
At Port Solent
But really looking forward to seeing the pics that Bruce took
Craig I'm in Epsom and could do with your help to .....
Seriously, what a tremendous gesture and glad to hear it got sorted with some midnight oil being burned there and as Neil has just said that's what this forum is all about.
Welcome to the forum
Just posted this earlier today on a another newbies thread:
Noisey thrust release bearing - very, very common issue and normally nothing to worry about - see here:
viewtopic.php?f=9&t=16709&hilit=thrust+bearing
As regards the metallic noise - might be best to get someone to listen from the passenger seat and see if it is coming from the front or rear of the car.
It could be a number of things, but for starters I would check between the disc and the backing plate to see if a stone or something is lodged there. And while checking that area make sure the pads and shims are OK - the inner pads are known to wear more.
It might be a wheel bearing although you don't normally hear the symptons associated with wheel bearing noise as 'metallic'.
The convoy already set up by our SE meets organizer set up on 23 July

Could maybe link up at Midhurst if you don't want to travel to the meeting point at Horsham, ETA about 14.00-14.15 I would guess
A new member has a brake issue - see here:

If anyone can recommend an outfit that way can they let Tay know via that thread please.
