  1. Then again its also down to colour with the Zed. The silver/oranges do tend to be cheaper unfortunately. Also the problem with the 350 is every bloody car is listed as a GT these days.....
  2. For 8K i would be expecting an 04-05 GT model in great condition with Rays and possibly sat nav if that floats your boat. Low mileage and a good service history
  3. You can get 10mm & 15mm hubcentrics from Project Kics. I was quoted £100 per spacer for them though I can imagine you can get the spacers but wouldn't the thread on the hubs push through past the spacer and hit the wheel. Meaning you can't get the wheel onto the spacer correctly?!? Easy to picture but hard to type I know some wheels have holes in on the rear but not sure if all do. I'm really struggling to understand this. I can't really see why you should need to fit longer bolts, if anything I'd have thought shorter bolts, , surely 10mm or 15mm hubcentric spacers would come with nuts that would fit flush to the spacers anyway? The wheel itself is bolted to the nuts on the spacers, if the back of the wheel doesn't have the holes for the nuts to fit in then it doesn't really matter what size the spacers are. In this case you'd have to fit another standard spacer on top of the hubcentric one, as I did with my wheels which don't have the holes on the back of the wheels. Pete The spacer below is bolt on (Hubcentric) so uses the hub studs to secure the spacer then has its own built in studs to secure the wheel. If this design spacer was infact 10mm thick instead of 20mm then the hub bolts would protrude too far out and obstruct the wheel from securing on the spacer. This 10mm spacer uses the existing studs from the hub (in this case i believe longer studs have been added)

  5. Well yes really, the wheels already have the correct bore size (66.1). So all you need is some 20mm 5x114.3 hubcentric spacers.
  6. Yep spigot rings can go on a hubcentric spacer but not a normal 5/10mm one. Really? Pete Yep, you may be able to run an 18mm one for example but as far as normal sizing goes i believe 20mm is the smallest you can get away with to cover the hub bolts. Any smaller and the hub bolts could hit the alloy,
  7. If you can buy a forum members car you are onto a winner
  8. Its a scam, believe this car was on eBay a few months ago probably by the real seller though....
  9. Need spacers on the front or they wont clear the Brembo's. 20mm minimum
  10. If you mean hub diameter of 71mm and 67.1mm then you need a spigot ring which will go from the aftermarket alloy wheels size (Usually 73.1) to the hub diameter size. With 15mm you will need longer nuts on though! 20mm is the minimum hubcentric spacer you can run.
  11. Fixed! The problem was indeed the passengers side front bearing. Very easy to fit if you don't have Eibach spacers which have nuts made of cheese..... Once these were off its just two 22mm bolts holding on the caliper and four 17mm bolts holding on the hub. I bought my bearing from Import Car Parts - http://www.importcarparts.co.uk/parts_info.asp?id=7775&cat=87⊂=120&sec=0&var=0&dc=&gen=&searchKey= Was only £137 with 24 hour delivery. Genuine NTN Japan Bearing manufacture who make the bearings for Nissan anyway!
  12. Thanks! Bearing should be here tomorrow so will update the thread then if i get it on
  13. He said to me no Nismo sticker and the paint isn't a great match for Azure so yes definitely over the odds!
  14. Just don't drive like a tool and you will be fine
  15. Will keep you updated on my situation then Cheers
  16. This is in the servicing section but it seems no one reads that bit... I have a rumbling noise which kicks in around 40mph and sound like an old plane. So I believe it's the wheel bearing as everything else is in order. My question is am I right in thinking if I go round a left hand corner so load the right hand side of the car and the noise stops its definitely the left hand side bearing? There is a very slight movement in the front left bearing and none in the right so this makes sense so I just wanted to check! Thanks in advance. Adam
  17. Just ordered a front bearing, am I right in thinking if I go round a left hand corner so load the right hand side of the car and the noise stops its definitely the left hand side?
  18. Hello, I have a rumbling noise from the left hand side of my car at about 50mph. It's not too loud but seems a bit OTT for just tyre noise. I have checked the front bearing by moving wheel at the top and bottom. There is a very small amount of movement. Would this cause the noise? No moment on the steering wheel which I thought there would be if it was a front bearing. Tyres are all the same with level tread of 6mm. Cheers for any advice. Adam
  19. Tried to PM you taffy but your box is full. Did you ever get to the bottom of this? Mine has just started doing it, all tyres are the same with an even 6mm of tread and there doesnt seem to be any play in the bearings. Sounds like it is definitely coming from the left hand side of the car though.
  20. Also have OEM Backbox and mid pipe, can ship. PM if interested.
  21. And now he i saying it is B17.... It doesn't have a nismo stamp!
