Adrian, looks just like a case of neglect and lack of maintenance, nothing a bit of grease won't fix.

Could be numerous things including the steering column coupling.

As above ^^^ 85 will be fine.

Low mileage pre owned engines in stock and good to go same/next day.

I will have a pair of SPC front camber arms coming off my 350 beginning/middle of May. Alex.

No: Closest to front of engine.

It screws into the R/H cam cover beside #1 coil pack,and a breather hose leads from there. You can't miss it.

They are the same thing, just different terminology and I told you where it is fitted in my last post. ECV = Emission Control Valve.

Ditch the shell fluid and refill with a recommended tried and tested brand, suitable for the VQ35DE. What oil brand were you running prior to this issue ? Remember and empty out the filter as well which should be OEM. Also check that the ECV is working as it should, you will find it screwed into the cam cover.

Best to buy hub centric spacers with the studs attached.

Direct from Autodata: Clutch Plate, Cover and Release Bearing R&I 3.50 Flywheel R&I 3.70 So total of 3.70 hrs in total as you have to remove the Clutch kit to get to the fly. Most round it up and charge 4 hours for the complete job.

Good news in the end, bill wasn't that bad Sorry, got to disagree, £408.00 equates to circa 8 hours labour. Did you also get a P3 and a brake upgrade ?

He hit a kerb and got a puncture.

They probably unnecessarily removed the exhaust and cats etc. Name and shame to save other forum members similar pain. ~ I done my cats and exhaust in about half hour lol. still not 9 hours worth! Could run into may extra hours if they snapped the cat bolts and studs. Perhaps they had to do it twice if car would not start after fitting the fly incorrectly. Alex.

Race 2 was up there with the very best over the past years. However, need a bit if clarity, as still a bit confused with all the new regulations. Strategy will certainly play a bigger part than ever this year.

I believe that the 370 torque is 98 ft-lb. Best nip mine up a touch then !! Might be a plan. 80 is less than your wheel nut torque.

You should have got a written quote before instructing the job and if you didn't, then you only have your self to blame so I guess that you may just have to suck it up. £200.00 is the going rate for a clutch and fly swop out, so circa 4 X £50.00. Alex.

Ewen, I know at least three guys in here who had the Whiteline droplinks, some from yourselves, others from ZManAlex, some rusted or corroded badly, in one case they've snapped. Lots of reviews on US forums also don't rate them very well do a quick search here: http://my350z.com/forum Adrian, I have never sold the Whiteline drop links. The only links that I sold were genuine Nissan OEM or PowerGrid adjustables. Alex.

114 ft-lb is not exceptionally tight for the thickness of the bolts. The reason that it appears to be is because you are not getting in the correct position to apply the torque.
