How many zeroes?
I'm hoping there was a typo there.
Merry Xmas anyway
not a typo...pieces like this are always expensive
and much, much less labor costs vs replacing the entire hub assembly
we sell the Moonface Racing Roll Center kit, which replaces that exact piece. I have this fitted to my own car, as well as several members here.
Other than that, only other option is finding a used hub someplace. No one else sells that bushing by itself
they are $500US shipped for the set
Seibon and Varis don't belong anywhere near the same paragraph, let alone sentence
But Chris is right, some weave imperfections are a bit normal
cutout is off...perhaps a dremel could even it out a bit?
was going to suggest painting the silver piece black..it would be hard to spot then unless youre right out on top of it. Or, if you want a less permenant solution, get yourself some vinyl sticker material in black, cut a square and trim around the Z, then place the carbon piece over it.
those are endlinks though, not ball joints
there are a few examples of ball joints on the Z, so need to know what they are saying is split
fits in the bottom of the hub on either side. If one has torn, do yourself a favor, replace both...it's only a matter of time, as the rubber does get crusty over time. These need to be pressed in/out of the hub.
There is another one at the top of the A arm (where a arm bolts to hub arm)
There is another ball joint on the lower transverse link as well (I just replaced mine with NISMO units not long ago as my stock ones were torn). This arm is the one lower one with the bend in it in the picture below
you need the later models a/c control module, the entire waterfall center piece (upper, middle, lower pieces), shift boot. Not to mention but the new pattern they use on the plastic is not found anywhere else on the previous year cars...so it looks out of place as well. Overall, it's expensive for such a minor change
there are no aftermarket top mounts that I've ever seen for the Z. You can ask KW, but I seem to remember the Clubsport mounts not being useable on the V1-V3's
tremendous amount of volume gets you very good rates !
Nate - are you after 18's or 19's, or either? Second, pm me your budget and I'll be happy to go over options with you
KW does not offer any for the V3 coilovers unfortunately. Did you sell your stock suspension? If not, then you'll need to transfer those upper mounts over.
shipping most 19's to the UK is around $300 US, door to door...we do it nearly every day of the week, all throughout Europe
another good option....very good wheel and even less $$
official NISMO products are called V1
given the very fair pricing on the genuine urethane NISMO parts (front lip, sideskirts, rear "spats" and spoiler, and the perfect fit/finish, it hardly pays to waste time with the replicas
pretty common issue with age, especially if the car is used year round
don't forget the Turbo XS full catback system deal we have (includes y pipe!) in the traders section
What exact bracing are you after? There are TONS for these cars, from lower arm bars, to sways, front "J" braces (nice NISMO piece I have on my car), etc
quite common actually - the sensors seem to have a shelf life of 40-80k miles on many cars. I replaced mine earlier this year in fact. When the sensors stock working, the VTC also stops working too. So car will feel very very sluggish down low rpm's, but feel fairly normal in the upper end of the rpm range
thankfully they are not expensive ($75 each here in the US). As preventative maintenance you might also want to replace the crank sensor too (same price). All are quite easy to get to, and can be done yourself - I can walk you through it if you need
if Im to visit all my new gf's in 2009, I'm going to accumulate quite the frequent flier miles!
So far my trip has me going to Spain, Tanzania, Brazil, Greece, Belarus, Belgium, Malta, Dominican Republic, Chile, and Turkey
