Same as mine I believe. Mine are branded Japspeed but I think they are all the same manufacturer.

I think you earned the right to brag a bit mate. :lol:

Jesus! We will have to change your name to ToughNut. Didn't realise you'd been through that recently mate and am genuinely pleased your ok.

There has already been an attempt.

Yeah. All the way from the hard line and retainer on the body to the caliper.

My Evo brembos use stock fitment lines. A banjo style fitting. I brought a full set of braided lines from Driftworks.

You my friend will die the day your hands give up. :lol:

So say it was obviously going to happen is dismissive but it was always likely. Hopefully it's positive news for Britain.

There were a few dirty looks.

This maybe of help? http://stores.ebay.co.uk/conceptua-tuning/Z32-300ZX-Fairlady-/_i.html?_nkw=Hicas&submit=Search&_fsub=2566119012&_sid=216314002 Alternatively... http://www.driftworks.com/driftworks-total-hicas-eliminator-kit-for-nissan.html

I think your right there. From memory there's a small offset difference, few mm. I seem to remember someone using a pair of washers to adjust the offset on the calipers to use 350 dis s which are cheaper on the skyline calipers.

Welcome and you that. We mostly cater for the later 300zx model the Z32 89-99 here. So the experience may not be as heavy as other places. ZClub.net and http://www.300zxclub.com are probably better technical sources for you. However this club is UK based and active so it would be great to see your Z31.

Depends on what you want or enjoy to an extent. A Z32 will never be a compentant as an R35, when I say competent I mean over all. Sure you could be faster, both on the straight or through the corners, but by that point your Z32 will have suffered many compromises whilst the GTR is still sat there with all it's luxury. That said it's nearly 1,75 tonnes of car stuffed with air bags and electronic wizardry, if your so inclined a Caterham 7 would be more fun. Hell we all know how fun a 60s mini with 100hp 2" off the floor is. The R35 is a stonker of a machine, it's what the Z32 was in its day and then some. The question of does it have more driving pleasure depends on the individual. I know a chap who has a 2.8i Capri and a DB9, guess which he prefers to drive the weirdo. :lol:

From what I've read. VG30DETT Engines with the serial lower than 619550 may have soft valves. Other than that to prove 100% its head off, the desirable valves have EG stamped on them.

Enjoy the GTR Dan they are ballistically fast.

Brembos should be red. No arguments there.

Whoops!

40P is the designation for pre 96 turbo heads. NA ones are stamped 30P till 93, at which point they become 10Y. Late style turbo heads are labelled 48P. The poo heads will still be labelled 40P but I believe the engine serial is within a set range. You will find this behind the drivers side head.

So it's back here safe and sound?

I'm now officially in my 30's, not sure when that occurred. It's the wife being 25 still that pushes up the policy I think. That and her hatch is a "sporty" (apparently) one.

Question. Why are you replacing the fly wheel in the first instance? Obviously the clutch plate and friction disc wear but is there a known issue with the fly? Obviously we all know a light fly reduces rotational mass, blah blah. That comes at a cost though, that rotational mass is there for inertia helping you pull away etc. I'm not saying you will ruin the street ability of the car that's nonsense but the gains you will gain may be of no real world use to you and the cost a touch worse in some scenarios. Do a bit of reading. You've already been advised a good one which is great but for anyone thinking of cheaping out it's a component not to skimp on. A poorly made flywheel that's let go is like a hand grenade and could see you or your passenger loose there legs!

Only because they are insured as classics with mileage restrictions etc. If you were to insure one as an everyday car, to drive to work etc it would be a lot more. When I turned 25 and was eligible for a classic policy the insurance dropped to about 5th of normal policy price I was paying. My wife's 100 odd hp hatch back is about 450-500 a year for both of us. It's a cheap car to insure.

One or two of them I recognise but just cannot place. Frustrating lol.

9. Brake flexi cable retainer clip

Il try the ones Dave didn't get. 23. Interior trim retaining clip. Boot lid centre panel? 21. Spigot bearing 19. No idea 15. Gear box mount to body bolt 11. No idea 10. Hub nut 2. Drive shaft bolt, maybe a flywheel bolt.
