Is it wise to remove the liners?? since I have had the car back Really peed of with the noise of the fronts rubbing agaist the liners!

 

Reason being the size of the spacers to clear the massive front calipers!

 

What do you guys rekon?

Personally, I would try to keep them as they do offer a degree of protection.

I understand what you mean about the noise though. Maybe they could be modified as opposed to removed?

I would keep them on for the protection they offer.I have 25mm spacers on the front and at first they were rubbing on full lock but by pushing and bending in the fixings around the edge there is now no rubbing.

i would deffinetly keep them on matey, reason being i have found rust on the reat arches lip,

 

the reason i have found is that there is no liner in the rear and stones have finnaly cut through the inside of the arch this lets water spray up, as there is nowhere for the water to drain the water settles around the arch lip causing rust bubbles

as far as im aware, there is no arch liner in the rear, ive owned 5 300zx's and not one rear arch liner in sight. fronts however. yaw ive not got any arch liners on my fronts, the only issue ive found is the relays in the drivers side wing getting crapped up / wet, the other reallllllllly annoying thing is you get a built up of small stones between the wing and the body work of the car that will only shift if jet washed.

Doh my fault for not making a clear post LOL

 

yep the rear on mine rust as there were no liner so im sure the front will also be the same if you remove the liners as ther are quite a few holes under the liner relays also, maybe you can modify or bend your liner a little to clear the tyres?

I need to space my fronts out but as soon as i do it will rub like a pig :(

is there no way of modifying your arch liner to accomadate the wheel offset? im not sure if it can be moulded with a heat gun maybe?

not for me no. the intercoolers are in the way.

I have removed the front part of the arch liner, mainy because of tyre rubbing, but the larger IC's fouled as well so I just binned them over 1 - 1.5 years ago

Same here........... Also for the SMIC's to have more free flowing air at the rear, air easier to exit, rather than the exiting air hitting a plastic wall (the inner front wheel arch lining)..............
