  1. Please do not post the istructions on the forum or I will be in serious trouble, only supposed to give out these with UK dealer supplied units, I am doing everyone a favour here, if you pass it on to others privately no problem but must not become public.
  2. Got the new truck sorted today, had a play around with the graphics machine, didn't come out too bad.
  3. is it OK to fax the instructions to you, info is on another computer I can't access at the moment but I have a hard copy ready to go.

    brake pads

    Not very good for normal road use and very harsh on discs. Wow this thread could go on for years I'm just after something not to harsh on the discs,also doesn't put dust all over my wheels(or should i say less dust),and finally a reasonable price? Then Redstuff will suit you fine £99 full car set.
  5. You wanna see me on a night out. (Customers car by the way, not my pics.)
  6. We only use the hub centric spacers which bolt on to the hub using the existng lugs and the spacer then has it's own new lugs for the wheels. These are specific bore for the 350Z so no spigots to centralise the wheel, absolute perfect fit. We have had them on a numbr of cars and have checked bearings etc with no issues or signs of advanced wear. How much for a set of these spacers Phil? The Eibach, which we prefer, are £185 for the two pairs including delivery.

  9. Before and after shots with spacers, just for your info (20mm all round) before after
  10. I have a brand new HKS F-Con IS you can have for £300, you will still need the harness though. Actually have two in stock. DS2500 pads are now reduced to £175 inc delivery
  11. What is your best price on the wheels.

    DS2500 pads do produce more dust than standard, not drastic but nevertheless more.
  13. front disc 324mm dia and 30mm thick rear disc 322mm dia and 22mm thick Not sure of the relevance of piston size but fronts are 4 pot rears 2 pot.
  14. what, for a car that sees the track twice a year or similar? bah, not in my case they aren't... it's all about what you do with your Z imo Sorry don't agree, the additional confidence on the road is well worth the extra, of course if you never really drive the car then I can accept your point.
  15. Ferodo DS2500 are without doubt far superior to the EBC and definately worth the extra cost. W have now reduced the price of these as well to £175 for a full car set.
  16. No problem they are in stock and ready to go, next day delivery included in the price.
  17. For £185 you can have a full car set of Ferodo DS2500 pads and fit them yourself in an hour. Hiya.. are these Ferodo DS2500 worth paying the extra £85 more than redstuff? Any knowledge about the difference with stopping distance compared to standard pads? Redstuff are an improvement on standard but the DS2500's are in a different league. It's not so much about stopping distances more about feel, stability, brake pedal modulation and the ability to repeatedly abuse them without fear of them dropping off in performance.
  18. have these in stock £30 each or £55 for two, only in chrome at the moment.
  19. It is advisable to keep the pad material all the same from a performance point of view, however the standard pad is a Ferodo material albeit a lesser grade and you can get away with just changing the fronts. You will still see a marked improvement as the fronts do most of the work.
