  1. Dear God that is frighteningly cheap for what you get.
  2. Thanks Guys, just how I like it explained - very simply
  3. I`m not sure they reviewed the road noise very well
  4. I`ve got CSC2 on the back and Toyo on the front. The CSC2 are pretty good and have lasted ages, but the Falkens get good reviews here and are considerably cheaper. If I get the same performance but the cost is cheaper there is no argument really
  5. Now I am a little confused! Are the HEL lines a single piece calliper to hardline also?
  6. Have you thought about reducing the profile of the tyres (RR front to rear ratio the same obviously)? When I got my Rotas from Phil, he put a lower than stock profile Falkens on (lower RR) which firmed up the side walls and gives less flex apparently. Might be worth a go if you stick with Falkens. NO issues with TC as the front to rear ratio of RR remains the same. Exactly what Falkens are they then? I have a lot of respect for the advice of Phil and am perilously close to buying a full tyre set.
  7. Got me worried for a moment there was wondering what i had missed +1 +1 !
  8. I'm sure there was something on the telly about it being a myth that is is too cold to snow. After all, if that were true it would never snow at the Arctic/Antarctic!
  9. Oh my god, thats my wife!
  10. A SHORT LOVE STORY A man and a woman who had never met before, but who were both married to other people, found themselves assigned to the same sleeping room on a trans-continental train. Though initially embarrassed and uneasy over sharing a room, they were both very tired and fell asleep quickly, he in the upper berth and she in the lower. At 1:00 AM, the man leaned down and gently woke the woman saying,.......... 'Ma'am, I'm sorry to bother you, but would you be willing to reach into the closet to get me a second blanket? I'm awfully cold.' 'I have a better idea,' she replied 'Just for tonight,...... let's pretend that we're married.' 'Wow!...................... That's a great idea!', he exclaimed. 'Good,' she replied. .............'Get your own f****** blanket.' After a moment of silence, ......................he farted. The End
  11. No way mate - I can do that myself, I have very mobile eyebrows :cool: I can do a mean Rodger Moore impression, only less fat and boring I hope
  12. Yeuk, it's that old man wood effect again
  13. Indicator of Price Adam? - I know you'll ask so - GU24 9XA ACT Heavy Duty Clutch ACT Streelight Flywheel = $1098 shipped And for a NA car (i.e. no heavy duty required)?
  14. Very interesting. What sort of ballpark figure do you think we are talking about here. I fancy some braided lines but if the cost is going to be twice that of a goodrich set them there is no point me wasting the time of your guys.
  15. looking forward to the new year celebrations in China Town. Always good fun here, especially as i can look out of my window and watch the Lion chewing the lettuce from a grandstand seat
  16. You could always PM Fletch as he is the guy that will know that engine inside out (probably literally). he may be able to advise if the belt is likely. I have some cracks in my Aux belt so once Fletch is up and running in his new pad, I'll be on his doorstep with the work to replace mine. But back on topic, get someone to rev the car whilst you listen under the bonnet. You shoudl get an idea of where the problem lies. Oh, and find a better mechanic. You are paying them, so you don't need to take a crap attitude from them.

  18. Almost right on the reset procedure. You don't need to start the engine, just turn the key so the ignition is on (lights on the dash come on).
  19. The other day i dropped a pay-and-display ticket down the back of my speed/rev pod. I normally have the steering wheel adjusted to the top position but I had to lower it to it's lowest to fish the ticket out. During this time I had the ignition key in but not quite on (just enough for the radio). Put the steering wheel back and started the car and the airbag light came on! What's that all about then?? Just from adjusting the steering column down then up my airbag is disabled? I`ve done the airbag reset and everything is now fine again but it does seem a bit odd!
  20. I`ve used Adrian flux many time over the years and have never had a much of a problem with them. They often beat other peoples quotes
  21. Hey Fletch, don't forget to build the price of a new kettle and a biscuit barrel into your costs
  22. Yeuk! Far too graffic!
  23. Hi Simon You don't need to pull the Bose, just the centre console. It's very easy, allow 60 mins to pull it out and put it back although once you have done it, it only takes about 15 mins! You need a 15cm blade X-head screwdriver, preferably with a magnetic tip. http://liljerk.morpheus.net/350Z/dash_removal/
  24. Fletch worked on my car at ESR with the following work: P1 servicing P3 servicing MOT pre-check Full suspension change (shocks and springs) Steering alignment Full exhaust system Brake disks and pad Various engine work All work was done to an exceptionally high standard and I have been very pleased with the professionalism on each and every job. As I live locally I am happy to offer to have any of the work inspected for quality and I would not hesitate to trust Fletch with working on my car in the future. Chris
