Yep it’s almost off now. Managed to secure it for now cos was concerned it’s their to protect fuel carrying items.

Cheers Alex, always an asset for this forum.

Got a 2004, 350z and noticed this cover hanging loose. Anyone know what it’s covering?

SOLD

Nice job! the problem with me is AGE. Im 75 and my getting under car days are long gone now. I can still do it but then suffer aches and pains for days after. Nope the money I’ve saved doing my own work over the years is now being spent in old age. 😂

Yep been there done that 👍

Ooops so Sorry! I’m not a very good spuller🤪

Yep I noticed them but Tarmac are cheaper and then I noticed Nippon are cheaper again for the kidney braces. Looks like I’ll go for Tarmac to get everything in one go but solely because their about £50 cheaper for the kidney braces and hardware. UNLESS TORQUEN CAN DO BETTER (for a poor old pensioner with a bad back and sore leg)😂

Thanks Davey, Tried Alex but he doesn’t stock the W brace kidney brackets any longer. Never heard of Kate performance so will take a look👍

Anyone got experience of buying parts from this company who can recommend/warn me Thanks

Been to Stagshaw this morning to firm up prices for the W brace, if I supply the parts he recons it’s will only be a couple of Hrs Labour at circa £80/hr so not bad. Now to find a decent price for the kidney joints and bolt set. can anyone confirm that all that’s required for the W Barack job is A W brace 2 kidney joints A bolt set ?? and if you know where to get a decent price for these I’d like to know if you don’t mind. Thanks

The guy’s name is Josh, nice guy. His ball park was £550. They keep the car for about a week while they fully steam clean (must be stem cleaned) the underside, then after drying time treat with a rust inhibitor, then apply the Dinitrol to the underside and box sections. There were several Landrovers on their forecourt and a six week waiting list. Had a look at one on the ramps in process and it all looked good. I got a good feeling about him, his guys and the place and felt they’d make a good job. I’m booked in for beginning of August. By the way they can replace the W brace and kidney joints if required, don’t have a price for that as yet.

Im in Newcastle. My W brace needs replacing as well so I’ll ask Stagshaw if they can do that while there on. The guy to contact is called Josh and at the moment they have a 6wk ish waiting list. I’ll let you know what his quote price is when I visit on Monday.

PS..just made contact with Autospray Darlington. The guy I spoke to said he did mainly Waxoyl but could do Dinitrol but was unsure of the Dinitrol costs. He gave a ballpark of £500 but was open to a discount if more cars involved. Having talked to the two companies mentioned, I got better vibes from Stagshaw.

I’ve been doing a little more searching and found “Stagshaw” (mainly Landrovers but do other cars as well)who are the main Dinitrol agents apparently. There based on Queensway South on TVTE. I’m calling in on Monday for a quote but the guy said a ballpark figure would be £400-£700 depending. By the way Thompson’s/Waxworks of Morpeth are out of the under sealing business. Rang Auto spray for ballpark cost but no contact yet. as
