I think my bonnet catch squeaks will try a bit of tape! Talking of turning the music up, my music box is original Nissan tape/radio/cd. Seen better days. Halfords are doing a 12 CD/tuner JVC for £149 from £199 has anyone seen this & any comments about the quality of this system?

Brakes
Hi Simmo Thanx for info will change bushes first. Always torque wheel nuts! Ben on the brakes side I ordered mine from Strano Parts but you can get them from B19rks or Z centre I think. I would speak to them first My pads for your info: AXXIS PBR metal master, semi-metalic. Front only $55 + $38 shipping took 10 days! I also had to order one set of shims from nissan £20. Think you can do better with help from this forum though. Job EASY if I can anyone can. You saw Vjays reply thats what I used!:)

front brake pads
So do they just warp! is this a norm for a Z. Never ever had a warped disc on any other car. Never had a Z before though! This could be more work! Want to take car to Germany on the 1st Oct. New engine sounds sweet though!

front brake pads
Cheers Rich! do you think getting new ones a waste of time. If I clean the old shims & copper grease um? Think it makes sence really! If me pads are worn would that cause my brakes to judder as this has just started to do. Worse at higher speed no judder from below 20mph. Or are my discs in need of changing?
