  1. Of course it is not okay to jack on the plastic diff air duct. Just think about if for a second.
  2. to the forum:
  3. The CSC is uprated mate, but remember and use uprated fluid. I have never heard or experienced any of the issues that Dave6188 has had, which lends me to believe that it may have been a fitment issue in this instance.
  4. If your door locks work with the key, park it up and remove the battery and put it on a trickle charger in your garage until such times as you want to start using the car again. Jump starting a very flat battery that has been totally discharged, that has been sitting for a few months will not work I am afraid.
  5. I can supply as all parts are in stock. I am based in Perth so may not be geographically suitable for you regarding fitment.
  6. Why don't you start your own introduction and welcome thread? to the forum anyway.
  7. Make sure that you have no exhaust leaks and then get your Up Rev tuner to switch the sensors off.
  8. Concept is good; Straight ahead is good: £20.00 is good: I would buy.
  9. Only the rears;
  10. 500 - 700 bhp depending on how good the forge build is. However all that is futile if the tune is not good.
  11. In stock and good to go same/next day mate. Just drop me a PM if I can help further.
  12. You have PM:
  13. If Keyser can not help, I have in stock and happy to supply but only if Keyser can not help you.
  14. to the forum.
  15. I will take that as a polite no then:
  16. Banana arm ball joints perhaps if you fitted the bushings to the old arms. Also, perhaps worn drop links. Could be numerous things but very easy to check.
  17. Just unclips: Complete mirrors or just the mirror glass are in stock and good to go same/next day: just drop me a PM if I can help further.
  18. Choice of brand new or preowned in stock and good to go same/next day. Just drop me a PM if I can help further.
  19. Providing the fit is good on both then the choice would be purely personal. With the fibreglass, you would have the choice of paint finish, however nothing beats a good carbon weave IMHO. Fibreglass is usually cheaper however you would also have to factor in the prep. and painting cost.
  20. to the forum.
  21. Go to an alignment specialist and ask them to check over your complete suspension, steering, hubs and bearings etc.and only then. get a 4 wheel alignment done. Best avoid the fast fit tyre guys and go to a specialist who understands geometry set ups. Sounds like a lot of expensive guess work has been going on.. Where are you based?
  22. to the forum.
  23. Manual transmission cars with the older style three-finger Long or Borg & Beck clutch pressure plate designs, apply increasing pressure as the clutch pedal is pushed to the floor. This produces maximum forward thrust on the crankshaft while attempting to start the engine. Diaphragm pressure plates go “over centre” at full release which applies only limited forward thrust. So the technique for a car equipped with a Long or Borg & Beck clutch is merely to start the engine in neutral. This eliminates potentially excessive wear on the thrust bearing. However, the modern diaphragm type clutches which are in the 350Z do not have this issue so it is quite safe to start the engine with the clutch pedal depressed without worrying about wear on the crank half moon bearings. However, I accept that if you have no safety concerns, then I see no reason why not to carry out this mod, I get your point, but I doubt if you would experience less wear on the thrust washers with the switch being fully active than without, but whatever you are comfortable with. Good luck with your build.
