The gauge hasn't worked for a while now, so finally got round to buying a new sender switch which still hasn't worked, before I call a auto-electrician to go through the wiring just wondered if any of you guys have had the same experience and solved it??

This is the 'tool' in question Pete with two spare valve caps, you unscrew the valve cap with it then screw the same part of the tool where the valve cap was

Well with Wales well and truly on its way and this year I'd decided was the year my zed needed some serious TLC iv had my nismos refurbed! Wanted them going back to exactly how they were when they left the rays factory only difference was the hidden valves as I couldn't source the original black ones. This is the second instalment after my suspension overhaul found here http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/82380-full-suspension-overhaul/ Next is a near full on re-spray which is underway (look out or my next post) Finally will be my new ice install, wether this will get done before Wales I'm not sure now, (if anybody has any ICE for sale pm me) After refurb

Only got them on last week dan, and not finished setting them up properly yet, not easiest job so haven't done a alignment yet

Cheers guys my bracing kit was actually Dans and it is the full 4 piece set, Tbh with the amount of work done I have noticed a big increase in the cars capability yet but I'm yet to push her as need to get the ride height Perfect still and damping, Another question when setting the coilover height up I noticed that the zed will drop 5mm on the drivers side when I'm sat in, now do I set front and rear the same height both sides or allow 5mm on both drivers side front and rear so when I'm sat in the car the car is perfectly matched when I'm driving? I know adding a passenger would screw this up but still.... Which is the proper way of setup?

Well..... It's been a long time coming but decided this year is the time to spend some cash on the zed, its been a while now since I have so decided this month to get all the suspension sorted as I only ever dropped the car on springs! Big thanks to mits (CS) for supplying the parts and very quickly! Thanks also to the other traders that helped out 👠Then in april im having most of the car re-sprayed and the nismos refurbished back to looking as they did when they left the factory, then lastly some new carbon parts for the interior and a full new sound system can't cope with the Bose any longer! Not sure if this will be done before Wales but the paintwork and wheels shall be done! Suspension wise iv gone with Eibach anti roll bars Whiteline drop links Superpro compression bush Superpro damper to compression arm bush BC coilovers Already on the car is the summit racing strut brace kit, SPC rear camber arm/toe bolt & whiteline rear diff bush kit Be interesting to hear what settings you guys have found the arb's most effective on and what rate of damper setting you found the best, I know this is purely individual but would be good to hear! The original dampers and lowering weitec springs will go up for sale soon also Few pics of the work done needs hell of alot of cleaning under there (I know)

I had the same problem but was easy to diagnose as the main bush into the subframe was leaking oil, contacted Nissan and they won't sell the bushes has to be the whole rear subframe which is crazy! I went for the whiteline solid bush kit the mechanic said it wasn't to bad to fit and noticed a little difference when it was first fitted with quicker response when applying some right foot

Cheers guys, just be glad to get her back! Picked the grommets up from halfords (thanks for that info) so ill get them sorted when car goes into the Bodyshop. Just needing the part smashed on the picture lee top right on the strut brace, if you could pm me a price and ill PayPal you as a gift cheers, I'm sure all the others are ok but not 100% until I get the car back from auto windscreens
-
Update glass is out but they won't get the bloody window seal until at least a week on Friday, Nissan have no stock in the country at all!!!!!! So got to come from Amsterdam still why its going to take two weeks is crazy!!
-
It's down at auto glass until the seal comes in, one bonus exhaust sounded awesome with no rear glass
-
Glass took out today, but they didnt bring new seals and when we tried to get mine off it wasnt looking good so decided to have all new seals but won't get them until middle of the week!!
-
Looks a really good job!!!

Got home to find the neighbours chicken shed had got airborne yesterday with these bloody winds and in the process ripping down the electric cable to our house! With a piece going through the windscreen and scratching alot of panels in the process including one of my nismos! Not happy!! Need the piece that's smashed in the boot on top of the rear strut bar in plastic if anyone has one for sale and now the wipers bent might as well get rid so wheres best place to get a bung if anyones done this already cheers How she was till yesterday, gleaming !!!!!!!!!!!
