350z brake upgrade
lol no, Brembo are a large manufacturer of high end Brake setups for performance cars, but AP Racing are more popular in Racing. This is true. Which is the better manufacturer ? - I don't have an opinion (or care :p lol), it depends on the application I suppose.

350z brake upgrade
Yep, 4 is ideal. Just avoid 5, its not compatible with 3,4 or 5.1 fluids or associated ABS systems.

You know exactly that I mean....or at least I hope you should after the last time we went into this.

350z brake upgrade
lol, are you actually having a serious argument with me over which manufacturer of brakes is better ? XD But no, not rubbish at all.

350z brake upgrade
Brembo are a popular Standard manufacturer fitment, and make a very large range of Calipers. AP Racing are the big name in Racing.

For Stopping distance - no ....for heat dissipation and fade resistance - definatly, yes ;)

350z brake upgrade
yeh, but their not big compared to my AP racing setup :p , and he's got access to a 350z breaking. Alan is right though, the EVO setup is a great brake upgrade option in terms of size and cost, if you dont mind getting some brackets fabricated. The calipers are available very cheap as they are not as well known about as the GTR/350z brembo's. There are plans out there for the brackets, Alan probably has a copy ?

350z brake upgrade
no, you would have to either look into a relocation bracket, or do what others have done which is to cut and reweld the mounting points on the hub.

Much better to buy the Calipers and Discs. They are substantially larger calipers than the stock Z items, and you dont have to go about getting brackets as they just bolt straight on. Forget about fitting the rears though.

new b piller?
Im intending to wrap mine too.....but IF they are available, them MJP is where to get them. (Details in forum traders section). MJP is by far the best source for Z oem parts in the UK.

How much would you pay for..................
wow, yeh. I take it back. 49 300zx items...most of them shitty little parts with excessive prices.
-
How much would you pay for..................
lol But what that really is, is an advert that he is breaking a 300zx and to contact him for more parts and prices. I doubt he actually expects to sell that item, its just ebay insist you have to actually physcially list an item for sale, you cant just advertise as breaking.

Stiff Gearchanges
You should also check a couple of things first : -- The nut and bolt on the shift pivot was not done up too tight that its pinching the bushing -- The bolts used either through the pivot or to mount the short shifter are not too long that they are making contact with each other during certain shifts. Both I have seen with short shifter installs, causing tight/stiff shifting issues. *reduce mechanical advantage.

Price is reasonable for a 1 off job.

What is this sensor?
Exterior temp sender for the Climate control display. If you get rid the display will no longer show correct outside temp, but climate control will function as normal without it.

what is your 0-60mph ?
Average is about 5.5 secs. I believe Car & Driver magazine achieved the fastest official stock measured time using a SWB TT Manual with 5.0 secs.

Fitting boost controller
You can just cap it off (which is what that pic is recommending), or you can T them together. There is about 3 gazillion Boost controller fitting guides for the Z out there if your stuck. The Aus300zx.com tech section is probaby the best allrounder.

Fitting boost controller
You can have multiple boost modes, but most people with Boost controllers set their max boost and leave it, just like Boost jets. Except compared to boost jets you get Quicker boost spoolup, no boost spikes and consistent boost in all temperatures. As well as a Built in boost gauge and buttons....Mmmm..buttons...:drool:

htc desire phone
oh, Im not reccomending the iPhone 4 when your looking at the Desire. Just replying to the usual iPhone trash talk that comes up whenever anyone mentions any mobile phone. Some sort of paranoid dislusional addiction that affects all other smartphone owners it seems.

htc desire phone
iPhone4 - 960 x 640, 326dpi Desire - 800 x 480, 240dp As for quality you have the iPhone 4 comprising of two sheets of class encompassing an aluminim chassis , versus the the plastic Desire.

htc desire phone
Replacing your stock firmware does nothing for the Inferior screen and overall quality difference though. the Desire is'nt exactly different though, its probably the most popular smartphone. You can prefer one smartphone over the other and you can dislike Apple as a company, but to call what is regarded as the benchmark leader for smartphones, and by far the highest quality of any smartphone.....as a doorstop, is the most rediculous comment I've ever heard. :rolleyes:

htc desire phone
Its not a bad little phone, we looked at them when looking for a new phone for the Missus. Its a decent middle of the range smartphone. There are some smartphones that you could rate next to the iPhone, the Desire is not one of them though.
