  1. hopefully just discs but it's worth getting it checked before you fit discs
  2. Never been convinced about that reason as I found the 370 rear wheels fit fine on the front (I've tested in the event of an emergency) What it was useful for though was taking the disc off the hub - just remove the sleeve and then screw in the bolt that will separate the disc from the hub Otherwise, removing it completely is no issue. Just what I read Colin and I cant think of any other reason, you did try the wheel without your spacer and with the stud in ? off 370z.com "I began with removing the front wheel, and then removing the "idiot bolt" on the rotor that prevents you from mounting the rear wheel to the front of the car. I forgot to take pictures of the removal of the caliper, but the DIY on this forum is great." "It just unscrews. It's there so u don't accidentally put a rear wheel on the front." "That bolt is not needed. It is there to prevent some unknowing person from putting the back wheels on the front." agree it can help to remove the disc but why would the rear not have one if that was it's purpose ?
  3. Add you're location to the for sale thread Alfie, always helpful especially for larger items
  4. Ave a good un
  5. Just take the bolt out and all will be revealed Just a bolt and sleeve iirc
  6. Just remove it, it's there to stop people putting the rears wheels on the front etc As the front and rear are different size wheels Hth Paul
  7. its not always the discs , they should measure the disk for run out, measure the disk for thickness variation and check that theres no pad deposits. If theres run out you then need to check the hub for stuff on the surface and then measure the run out on the hub.also the wheel nut torque should be checked and debris behind the wheels can be very costly to throw discs at the problem how many miles on the car gstraw ? as above tophooker knows what he's talking about
  8. Can make it worse Dan, chat to Darren and Tophooker. Darren tried it with DU11 FVC but it made it worse. I don't see he has much to lose at this point Chris
  9. +1. Try the bedding in procedure, with these cars not being used as much as they should sometimes it causes corrosion on the inside of the discs ( happens quite a lot on porsche's due to lack of use) Its free so try it
  10. Warped discs, need them skimmed or new discs Congrats on the car, looks I have read on another 370 with the same problem they had the discs skimmed and the wobble came back, new discs and the wobble came back and they then had to have a new hub and discs to cure it, they were lucky it was under warranty ! Hopefully this isn't the case, if discs are needed pm R35Lee he was breaking a 370 with 2k miles on it
  11. a bit pricey but has low miles @ 43k looks very good from the pics prefer this ......... http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/82066-immaculate-uk-350-for-sale/
  12. someone is going to get a great car glwts
  13. +1 best and budget don't go together
  14. Pm the op as he said he isn't on here very often, with a pm he will get an email alert
  15. I use a karcher on my drive way, brings it up a treat
  16. what a numpty, who would take his advice ....oh dear
  17. That's my other thought, maybe the on track experience wasn't a fair one considering it would probably do 2/3 track days a year and be used on the road 95% of the time???or would that just make it even more bland!? Never thought I'd be calling a GTR bland! Shoot me! M3 CSL would be good that's true, I did love my E46. I know it sounds spoilt and hard to please but when you've saved your hard earned and put this much money into a car, it's got to be the right one! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk It doesn't sound spoilt at all, I think you're expectations rise inline with you're budget and so they should at the end of the day it's you're money and no matter what anyone elses opinion says, it's yours that counts
  18. just the gearbox
  19. the advantage with the likes of a hks super hybrid filter is that they are washable
  20. looks great but agree with the black grill
  21. +1.
