  1. Interesting point on the cold weather the Russians had to contend with, the overly complicated panzers died in the cold
  2. We'll only use the car on the odd weekend, the car is not much more use than the van in this weather as it jus spins up!! Iv never had traction control off before either in wet although I never see the point in having it off unless track days
  3. P3had coolant flush or so I was told by JAPEX
  4. Everything and thanks for the banter guys haha
  5. Would leaving you 350z outside do much harm, I know it's not as good as garage but generally how well do zs cope with British weather? I would feel so much better if it was in a garage🌞
  6. Hi Guys Im looking for the jacking points I know of the lips to fit the winch jack but im after the proper ones to fit a trolley jack?
  7. Silly me I forgot to type in the rest
  8. If you can say yes, yes, no, no to all these questions then you should not have to pay a penny but some could be a pain, most important thing is that they know. 1) Is the Exhaust made for a 350z and 350z only? 2) Is this a stainless steel system? 3) Does this improve the performance of the car in any way? (from old cat back this should have no affect) 4) Does the system breach the road traffic noise regulation? (i.e is it chav boy racer) I only know of this because I spoke with an insurance underwriter at Swift Cover, The resonated Cobra mid pipe and back box fit the above criteria and at no expense on insurance.
  9. DO an insurace quote, if it says FAIRLADY Z then it an import. uk cars should be 350z
  10. Awsome stuff, i done this but after a few thousand miles they began so slown down again, this time i got myself some motors that are aftermarket and they fit perfect and spin up like a turbine. Go-parts.com 350z cooling fans
  11. my screaching comes from the A/C area after its warm?
  12. If you happen to have a HR your twice as likely to write you car off if you drive through pond at speed. (horror story from JAPEX Performance)
  13. My car is the HR Think my tensioner is adjacent to the cooling fan LHS. Looks prity tight as the lines Match up?
  14. awesome z, my 313 might have to have alloys done gold.. Good look
  15. I have this low level screech on ac clutch pulley.......once I engage the ac clutch by turning the ac ON the screeching stops further more once i placed some well aimed wd40 the screech stopped altogether, I can't see wd40 lasting log, I was thinking of injecting some grease but unsure what would suit best or if such a move is daft. possibly some copper slip grease???
  16. Thanks Alex Checked it out all was ok, when I turn AC on the pulley clutch engages and sound goes, I sprayed some wd40 into the groves at front and has since stopped, may possibly need to inject some copper slip Greece?
  17. So I have had a few small problems with my HR, one being the A/C compressor makes a squeezing sound on and off. Sound goes once you use talc. How can I tighten the AUX belt. I'm quite happy to take out the fan deck to assist job. I'm just guessing it needs a tighten.
  18. So guys after repairing fans before I took them out I noticed the mentioned below. At first I thought it was because previous owner could have tampered with them but you can't get it wrong if you tried. I have spoken with a mechanic at Nissan and he tells me a batch of HRs have a factory fault whereby the RHS fan turns opposite direction to the LHS resulting in hot hair being sucked from engine into rad, he says it's never caused major issues only when the LHS fan fails. So check and get back to me, it's a simple fix just identify the ground wires and reverse polarity.
  19. Ok guys thanks I'll check it out this weekend, is there a wiring diagram on this forum?
  20. No they are oem as no aftermarket units made for the HR
  21. Well thats just it i just unplugged them, i think it was doing this before i removed them.
  22. Guys I have refurbished my fans as of recently and all runs up to speed and temp needle stays below half all month long no issues, however I have notice RHS fan blows air into the radiator from engine & LHS fan sucks air through the radiator. What could I have done that’s daft, it could be remedied as I have new fan motors in post for piece of mind. Also japex during serive said its strange but engine is cooling fine. P.s engine is the HR
  23. Its just the pain of having to go through all the processes, I feel your pain its every drivers worst nightmare, however im sure things will work out for the best its just the time at all takes up. Keep me posted on how things end up.
  24. Another success story as I managed to refurb my fans and they are grafting hard. Thanks for this forum allowing such knowledge to be passed on. Saved me 700
  25. Hi guys Iv noticed a squealing coming from my belt pulley, check it out and tell us what you think.
