Front and rear ARB

Have checked this a few times now and the plenum is tepid when before it was hot and the upper plenum / throttle body is now cold to the touch after 40 mins of driving .
I wish I had done a before and after heat test on the plenum / throttle body as would be good to see the difference but it is much cooler to my surprise .

Did not know they did a turbo ?
Alan

Very good to the point you can see most stuff with just the side lights .

Sorry just read the above

What was the clutch set up you went for ?
Alan

Good points but I still think that the rattle would bug be .

Can you send PM again don't think it has come through
Alan

Mouthwash I was going to keep the clutch OEM as the rattle might drive me mad .
I thought the Akebono was a good upgrade ?
Alan

Not going S/C or turbo so just one last upgrade .
Brakes or a bit more power ( and clutch )

Just going on from my build thread the car is nearly done to how I want it ( there are all ways more things I know ) but I have one last spend that I have said I would do but not sure what way to go .
http://www.350z-uk.com/topic/97284-gm-350z-gt/
I have some more suspension pats coming to finish the old bus off but one more of the below I have aloud and just want to get some thoughts .
Option 1
Torqen big brake kit ( 6 pot ) will need to check this fits but 6 pots does sound nice .
Option 2
Akebono big brake kit bigger discs than the above ( 355 front 350 rear vs 356 front 330 rear ) and cheaper but only 4 pots front and 2 pots rear .
Option 3
Replace clutch & DMFW ( clutch is not slipping but is on 91K ) + fit DC sport S/S headers when clutch is done to save on labour .
I have changed the disc and pads and lines on the Brembo set up a few months ago but then headers will only gain around 4-6 HP
Any thoughts welcome

Very nice bud,
Quick question - How did you find the seafoam? Worth doing?
For £ 20 for x 2 bottles on Ebay I think so .
I put one n the fuel tank 3/4 in the oil ( ran for 100 miles ) and the last bit in the crank but only a little .

KONI VS BILSTEIN
in 350Z General
Posted
I have had some Bilstein B6 dampers on order for the last 2 months and now they will not be in until the end of August .
Has anybody had the KONI yellow sport as I may have to look at them to go with my TEIN springs .
regards
Alan
