  1. I did 210 miles with my washers froze yesterday, inc getting stuck in traffic on the m5 and they didnt defrost
  2. There is ABP in Crewe and TDI North in Warrington, there are not 350z specialists by any means but i think they can get hold of quite a few bits. Other than that i think we'll just have to make a day trip out of it!! If you do find anywhere else, let me know bud +1 Had good reports about TDI north
  3. You are supposed to say the 53 plate looks the business but I guess Mark has let you off this time i knew that
  4. i had 20k on mine and pads looked good, until i took them out and they were crumbling with pieces missing
  5. reset the ecu, did you have power loss or did the car cut out ? could be the cps on its last legs sounds like the ecu has received a signal it dint like or lack of signal and defaulted to safe mode
  6. classy
  7. Cs and i use redstuff, much better than oem and a bargain
  8. nice one

    Bleeding Brakes

    Give the nipples a squirt with wd40 a while before you do them, brembo's are well known for snapping the bleed nipples when trying to undo them
  10. 58 plate..sweet
  11. Low mileage or not, the oem pads are known to break up with age, any scoring on the discs ?
  12. nice zed and too damp to even polish never mind clay bar
  13. I'd just like to say i have had silkolene pro s oil off opieoils and i found it to give a smoother tick over, quieter engine and cleaner revving this is with a popcharger and aftermarket exhaust ps. excellent service, fast delivery
  14. nice celica, i've had 2 ...excellent build quality, i ran one from 18k miles to 138k and apart from the usual brakes and tyres it needed a battery !! same clutch, exhaust etc
  15. i would put a multi tester on it before plugging anything into it
  16. http://www.aclassinfo.co.uk/mypage.100.htm 15 -20 is just nipped up, slightly more than hand tight i've got a few torque wrenches, got one from screwfix that works for lower settings
  17. Cant you just convert the settings ? thats what i do, from imperial to metric
  18. i changed my nissan burgers for the Z badges and i can see people in the rear view mirror making the shape of the Z with their hands
  19. read somewhere he is trying to cover up a receeding hairline
  20. as my sig, gunmetal with an oil plate like this
  21. The standard pads on our Zeds are made by Ferodo, so I’m led to believe, it’s only the caliper and other working parts that are Brembo, not the pads and discs… Thats right Thanks for confirming bud… BTW, re: our conversation yesterday, waiting on prices for the DS2500 pads… Once with me, I'll send a PM your way... cheers ps. just a word of warning about the oem ferodo's, we have had quite a few instances of them breaking down with age, literally chunks coming lose, although they look to have plenty of meat on them it can be deceiving, until you take them out i changed mine at 20k miles and they looked good on a visual inspection until they were removed
