  1. Any main reasons for this Alex, im only using the car for street / track days, so a relatively mild setup, but would be happy for it to have a bit more of a harsh clutch feel than standard. I would have thought the Nismo item would be good, they are normally quality bits. Adrian, only recommending the Exedy Clutch and Fidanza fly set up as I have them all in stock mate and all good to go next day. Seriously mate, I doubt it there would be much difference between the Nismo and the Exedy/Fidanza combo. The Exedy has a stock feel to it and is ideal for your requirments as will the Nismo probably but I have no experience of the Nismo. I have sold literally hundreds of the Exedy / Fidanza kits with no complaints. Alex.
  2. This is a replacement set of manifolds that I have received from HKS as I have had issues with the originals. It is a pig of job to do insitu. It has all been stripped down for about a month and I have just been waiting on the parts from Japan. Would probably have been just as quick pulling the motor.
  3. Not the most pleasant of jobs, but as the replacement HKS manifolds have now arrived, it is time to get my hands dirty again.
  4. Stick with the the Exedy and Fidanza Adrian. viewtopic.php?f=38&t=27436
  5. Sounds like gearbox idler gear or Dual Mass fly on way out.
  6. I was gonna remind you to record it Stew but it slipped my mind. A well deserved title for Turkington but awesome show from Plato at Brands. Goodbye Vauxhall
  7. Yes they do and I have them available at £100 for all four corners. (Brembo Fitment)
  8. Yes Lee, thank you Anna, I can help you with this. You have pm. Cheers, Alex.
  9. Hi mate, there is no such thing as a best pad, but probably the best all round pad for dailly use and the occasional track day would have to be the Ferodo DS2500s. I am just up the road from you in Perth so I can ship same day or you can collect. Drop me a pm if I can help you further. I am asumming that you are running the Brembo set up. Cheers, Alex.
  10. Pm me your full model and VIN number and I will tell.
  11. My absolute pleasure to be able to help you out Clark
  12. Extremely interesting, great work maxi-glasgow
  13. Stick with 5W-30 mate and the Genuine Nissan oil filter, part # 15208-9F600 Alex
  14. Hi Mike and welcome to the forum mate Hope that you get your car back on the road very soon and then you will find that your jaw will ache for months.
  15. At 22% Sandy that would probably be an unsecured personal loan. A conditional sales agreement or similar will have a much lower apr but he won't own the car until the last payment is made. Any garage keen on a sale should be able to negotiate a decent apr with there finance company. A higher initial deposit also generally helps cut a deal in situations like this.
  16. Hi Alex, I take it the small ones are for non-Brembo fronts and rear and Brembo rear? Yeah, probably but just trying to generalize mate as it gets to complicated listing makes and models. The 350Z non Brembo front may fall into the small category but the Brembo rear definately does. I don't envisage a guy with a JDM brake set up wanting to spend circa £85.00 on Titanium shims and likewise Titanium shims on the rear Brembos are not really required if you have the correct brake set up and bias for your car and properly installed. But all types of shims are available in Titanium and all I require is a footprint of the pad if I don't already have the shape. They are all manufactured to order and takes about 3 days to turn round. At the moment all I am stocking for next day delivery is the Brembo 4 pot front and the front 6 pot pad shape ST-60 which fits the majority of BBK. Please note, these are not anti squeal shims but bespoke Titanium shims manufactured specifically to reduce the transfer of thermal energy. They will greatly reduce the heat transfer from the rotor to the calliper thus reducing the boiling of fluid and brake fade and the melting of calliper piston dust covers and piston seals and in severe cases the discolouring of the callipers themselves. Cheers, Alex.
  17. Chris, Your front Brembo callipers will be shipped on Friday mate with the titanium shims. If any one else is requiring the Titanium shims then just drop me a pm. They will be in stock and available for shipping from Friday. These are not imported and they are manufactured in the U.K. Prices as follows. Small.......£75.00 for a set of 4. Medium....£85.00 for a set of 4...Brembo Front 4 pot. Large......£95.00 for a set of 4...BBK Front 6 pot. Alex.
  18. Could be any number of things but if you require a clutch kit then I have them all in stock good to go. viewtopic.php?f=38&t=27436 Cheers, Alex.
  19. If it is a private transaction then you must get the car checked over by someone who has a sound knowlege of the Zed. You also must get a full HPI check carried out. Ideally the service book should be fully stamped and up to date with all servicing receipts and documents which will then give you the opportunity to check out the validity of same stamps with the appropriate garages. You should also be looking at the history of the car before it came into the U.K. You should also be looking for proof of ownership and clear title. Be very careful indeed when departing with your hard earned.
  20. TTBOMK the service data held within Nissan and BMW are different. BMW have a Nationwide U.K system which includes all BMW dealers where as Nissan only operate an inhouse dealer system. ie you would require to know the name of the dealer where the car was serviced.
  21. Time to call these guys and relocate to a new home in the sticks. http://www.pickfords.co.uk/ I know of a wee but an" ben that would be just ideal.
