    W Brace

    PM received and replied to. Unfortunately fresh out of preowned rust free "W" braces. However Nissan are showing in stock and are available from CMS at £206.47 including vat. Alex.
  2. Lub the knuckle with WD40 or similar and scrub the splines with a wire brush Lock the steering wheel from turning. Remove both bolts from the knuckle. Gently slightly prise open the slots in the knuckle. Knock the knuckle up the steering column shaft until it clears the rack. Then knock the knuckle downwards and remove the knuckle. Reassembly is the opposite of above. Do not use excessive force when knocking the knuckle up the shaft. Make sure that you lock the steering as you will damage the clock spring if you turn the steering column when disconnected from the rack. Alex.
  3. On a R/H/D 350Z, Bank 1 is the driver's side and Bank 2 is the passenger side. Bank 1 sensor is straight and Bank 2 sensor is angled. Alex.
  4. You require the correct tool. Source as above. Alex.

  6. It may be the servo as well as many other things, however you are only guessing. Why don't you get a specialist to check your car to get an informed diagnoses. Servos, actuators and all parts to fix this issue are in stock and good to go same/next day. Alex.
  7. Further to my previous post. If the car suddenly stopped with a horrible noise and the engine will not turn over by hand, by that I mean using a socket and breaker bar on the crankshaft bolt or put in 5h gear and with handbrake off rock the car to see it the engine turns. If there is no movement you may have a seized engine. Alex.
  8. PM received and replied to; Possibly ABS Actuator failure. In stock and good to go same/next day. Alex.
  9. Doubt if it will be an IPDM for a multi cyl. missfire. PO300 What is your issue and what is the expensive and frustrating history. All parts are in stock and good to go same next day, however I would not be prepared to provide the parts as a process of elimination in case you "fry" my parts. Loan of mechanical parts is fine, to help with a diagnoses, however electrical parts are a different story. Alex.
  10. Might be fuel pump. however a failed fuel pump would not stop the car from turning over. A clicking sound suggests that you have a battery, starter or earth issue. Check your engine oil. Check that the engine turns over by hand. Check the battery terminals. Alex.
  11. I have never personally fitted the Taiwan compression rods however I have inspected them in the past, and decided that they were not an item that I would be comfortable selling on to forum members. The castings, and in particular the ball joint fitment was all inferior to genuine Nissan rods. As I said in previous post: "You pay your money and take your chance". It is usually always the case that you get what you pay for. However please crack on, and be the first and let us all know how it went by posting up your experiences, that is, if you still have your arms and legs intact after your front wheels fall off and you wrap your car round a tree. I totally get where you are coming from in that older cars sometimes do not justify forking out top dollar for OEM parts from Main Dealers. Alex.
  12. Well you did say "thoughts anyone" in your original post. All my posts are based on informed personal experience so please except my comments in the same spirit in which they were given. If you do not want replies to your questions then why post in the first place? And yes, they are available from a UK supplier who ships direct from Taiwan. Alex.
  13. If swapping from JDM to Brembo you will require lines, pads, rotors and a hardware fitting kit. Alex.
  14. It is the rear sensors that you can turn off and not the fronts. The fronts must remain functional as they serve a completely different function to the rears. Alex.
