The low warning metal clip should be fixed firmly to the pad, usually by rivets. The damage is done so just bend it out the way with a large screw driver. Never ever seen this before and I've changed thousands of sets of pads. Drive carefully on way back to garage and read the riot act once there. The pad with the warning device should also be on the inside pad. Shocking level of service.

Thank you ZEUS. OP: PM received and replied to. Plenty in stock, new and very clean pre owned. Alex.

Hi Sasho, thank you for the PM which hit my inbox at 13.19 hours. However I have been playing in my man cave all day and just opened your message when I got home. OP: PM received and now replied to. Colin, PM received thank you, and also replied to.

A leak down test is an option that some use, however it is quite time consuming. (Plenty vids on You Tube) I prefer just to carry out a normal compression test followed by a controlled wet compression test as it is quick, accurate and efficient.

A dry compression test as per the video will not provide the information that you require to establish if the piston oil rings are worn or broken. The compression test will only provide the condition of the compression rings or valves which have absolutely nothing to do with oil consumption.

Definitely replace as you will have damaged the internal side wall. Not worth the risk. What price is a life ?

The oil filter does not come with the washer, but it is available separately.

evilscorp is looking for one, however I guess that you already knew that.

Glad to hear that the issue is sorted.

15mm will work on the Nismo mk 1 or mk2

I never saw the "V" or the "V2" on the tag: :lol: So we have established that it is a Vortech and not a Pro Charger right: Good luck with the fix.

How did you work that one out mate as from the images it is very similar to the self contained Pro Charger C2 ?

In that case just drop into your local friendly Vortech dealer

Here you go mate:

Sam, I have an SSV 350z DE Kinetix Racing Velocity Manifold Intake Plenum which came of my 350 DE when I upgraded to the Cosworth plenum. Half the price of new. Drop me a PM if you are interested. Alex.

Is that a Pro-charger C2 ? First vid noise is a combination of bearing and bolt rattling off body. 2nd vid is bearing failure. If Pro-charger it will have to go back to them for recon. If you require an introduction to Pro-charger let me know as I have contacts within. Alex.

For peace of mind, as has been said, hook up to a mechanical gauge to get a true reading, simples.

Tein S springs listed for the 350 coupe will be fine on the 350 Roadster.

Why not ask the parts supplier to provide a tutorial ?

Brembo brake conventional method is NSR-OSF-OSR-NSF Remember 2 nipples per caliper and do not let the master cyl. reservoir run dry. Never used a vacuum bleeder on the 350/
