  1. Still for sale? Is this a type HL rail?
  2. After a quick blast with Mark on some damp B-roads I can vouch for the TC system (change of trousers required shortly after lol). The way it cuts the throttle/torque is superb and makes the oem system seem rather antiquated. On track and road I can see this being mighty useful. I think I'd best get saving!
  3. Christmas price drop! £420 delivered or £400 collected.

    Silver ARB??

    As are Whiteline's with yellow bushes.
  5. Photos updated after a quick clean of the damper threads to show more clearly that they're in good working order .
  6. I'm selling these coilovers off my Z as I need to return the car back to stock height for maxmium clearance (on their highest setting they don't quite go to oem height). These coilovers have been on the car for just over 12 months and perform very well (they're used on Japspeed's drift cars which implies they're rather durable!). The damping is adjustable but I would describe them as a stiff ride even on the softest setting. There's a bit of the usual corrosion on them as can be seen from the pics but this is only cosmetic. I don't have the c-spanners or instructions, but apart from that everything else is there. The spring rates are the standard 8/6kg to the best of my knowledge as they were purchased by the previous owner. 30 way Adjustable front dampers 28 way Adjustable front dampers Adjustable ride height Adjustable pre-load spring tension 8kg front and 6kg rears spring rate with black powder coat finish All inserts come with fitted rubber boots to protect the damper and keep clean Zinc plated steel top mounts I'm based in Cheltenham if anyone is interested in collecting, otherwise I'm looking for £450 including delivery (UK).

  7. Great advice. This will stop you slumping even slightly in the chair and help maintain good posture.
  8. This . I'm lowered about 40mm and need 2" blocks, but that's with a low clearance jack. It'll depend on the jack you've got and your drop.
  9. I jack from the front, much easier and quicker but you'll need to drive onto a couple of blocks of wood to get enough clearance for the jack.
  10. That'll be me . They're my second set of MeisterR coilovers as I regretibly sold the first set off my old Z to Wasso (who incidentally seems very happy with them) rather than keeping them for my current Z. Looking forward to getting them fitted.
  11. I had the Shine rear spats and side skirts on my old Z but the fitment wasn't great. I'm not sure if it's improved at all in the last few years? Are there any other replica kits that fit well?
  12. My rear bumper now has a few war wounds after an incident coming off the ferry a few weeks back and now the neighbour reversing into it! I'm after a rear bumper to fit my 54 plate 350Z, ideally in sunset orange and ready to go on. Failing that, I'll consider other colours that could be resprayed if they're in good condition. Chris
  13. From reading the service manual it says not to use a power bleeder, not sure why. Also (from memory of the manual) the procedure is pump the pedal 5 times and hold, open nipple, close nipple, release pedal, wait 5secs and repeat.
  14. Yeah, it's not meant to come off but you haven't got a choice if you wanna spray it properly. With a lot more patience than me you might be able to slowly pry most of the rivets off. It was a much bigger job than I anticipated as I wanted an OEM finish, but damn does it look good . Such an improvement over the nasty light grey.
  15. Just done my headliner and plastics. I had to break most of the rivets off; they're damn near impossible to remove without snapping. I think I saved maybe 2 out of 7. I applied a little superglue around the edge, but you might not even need that. The 2 clips on the back of the sunglasses holder hold this entire piece in place and gravity ensures the headlining hangs off the plastic. The only reason I superglued it was to stop the two separating if someone pushes up on just the headlining. Same goes for the microphone that sits next to this.
  16. I was led to believe spacers shouldn't really affect alignment. Someone correct me if I'm wrong. I'll PM you shortly with details of someone else who is selling these.
  17. No longer needed as I've bought some from robin c .
  18. I use the Meguiars NXT Polish as well but the misting soon comes back. Anything you can then seal it with to prevent this?
  19. Clarkie34 by any chance....? And no I've not seen this thread , despite seeing these in the flesh and very much Rare as rocking horse poo and a great price GLWTS That's off my old Z Still miss the Azure colour. Wheels are provisionally sold pending payment.
  20. The time has come to sell these, as much as it pains me to see them go! The reason for selling is that I want to do some trackdays and it seems criminal to use these wheels for that, hence I've gone back to the standard RAYS. Here's the spec: 5ZIGEN ZR+520 in Hyper Gun Metallic Front: 19x9J +20 (Falken 452 245/35, 5-6mm) Rear: 19x10J +20 (Falken 452 275/35, 5-6mm) PCD: 5 x 114.3 They easily clear the Brembo's and sit perfectly flush on a standard 350Z without any need for arch rolling (and therefore no rubbing) with this width/offset combo. They're wrapped in virtually new Falken 452's with approximately 5-6mm tread all round. As far as condition goes, I've had them a few years now hence they've picked up a couple of stone chips and some minor flaking around the stud and centre holes, but apart from that they're in very good condition as you can see from the photos. One wheel has some minor kerbing. They don't come with the 5ZIGEN valve caps as some little scrote stole them about a week after I'd had them fitted! I have the 5ZIGEN centre caps (which were an extra) however two of them have warped slightly and don't fit tightly anymore (see the photos). I don't actually like the centre caps so I've removed them altogether. Wheels are often quite a personal choice but I can't say how many positive comments I've had about these and how well they transform the look of the Z . Any questions, please ask! I'm looking for £1050 collected from Cheltenham or add £50 for delivery. One centre cap (one of the two that has warped) has also faded slightly (top right): The two caps that have warped: How they look on a sunset: How they look on an azure:
