Brake pads
Hi, I've got some Metal matrix ones and I'm very happy with them, not too pricey either. Otherwise Smithy has a group buy going on for those Carbon/Kevlar ones

Do you have the shims between brake pads/caliper? They make a big difference. Also worth checking if your pads need changing soon...

Got back to the car last night to discover my slow puncture had become a serious pucture, so changed for the spare, drove 5 mins up the road and the spare went POP too :mad: Not surprising for a 14year old tyre I guess! Then had to wait 3 hours for a lowloader to take me and Louise home. (all of 4 miles..) Thankfully the lowloader operator was very good, no damage to the car at all by using various bits of timber to avoid scraping :bow: Anyway, decided to get some nice new rear tires, a can of foam, and chuck the spare in the bin :D

You should be getting around 0.4V on idle, and I think it's around 4V on WOT. Don't know which wire it is off the top of my head, do a quick search or look at AndyP's site in the links section.

Suspension bushes!
Agree with John, just had mine done as my subframe bushes were leaking, so I had Poly bushes all round and they make a huge difference, car feels a lot lighter, with only a slightly firmer ride. You do get to here the diff whine a bit more though.

Clear lenses

Is it worth getting a 1 peice prop shaft?
My current propshaft has worn UJ's and a duff centre bearing so this is actually cheaper than a replacement for me. 1-piece will transfer torque better and will also save some HP due to it being about a third of the weight of the stock one. I've gone for the c/f 1-piece to avoid the whip that you can get with a 1-piece of this length. I personally think that if the 300ZX was built now it would be 1-piece carbon one, but 14 years ago it wasn't really an option!!

Is it worth getting a 1 peice prop shaft?
