Well its obvious, you have to love them to own them.

 

BUT

 

Every day i drive it, it gets better. My autobox is improving every change, smoother and more responsive.

 

Went out over the weekend and gave it some rice, so you would have thought that the fuel consumption but it would be abysmal... however this tank has been the most economical ever

 

The vibration my car had at speed has also just pretty much disappeared!

 

So whats changed?? Fitted an Apexi air filter over the weekend, amazingly seems to have massively improved fuel consumption?!

 

Also fitted smithys big brake kit to it, (so it stops much better as well!)

 

So i've come to the conclusion that the K&N on it was shite, and it must have had a binding brake somewhere.... to induce the vibration which felt just like propshaft bearings.... glad i didnt buy a new propshaft!!

Melling with an angle grinder and MY CAR! Arghh

 

 

Also some pictures of my new Apexi Air intake (i just about managed that my self!)

 

 

350Z brake setup?

350Z brake setup?

 

Looks like stock calipers, larger discs and extension brackets. Much better value for money if you ask me. :)

 

Did you grind off the Nissan logo?

lol no it was like that already.

I think it was from when the previous owner fitted the alloys, in an attempt to not require spacers. He must have ground it of, realised it wasnt enough and got spacers anyway.

Either that or its had a new caliper of somthing thats been ground of for some reason.

 

Just smithys big brake kit

 

New Mintex 1144 pads

324mm DBA Wiperslot Skyline GTR Disks
