heyho Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Finally getting around to replacing my W brace as it has just come up as an advisory on the MOT (and it needs replacing anyway). I'm looking at the ultra racing rear lower 4 points: https://www.torqen.uk/nissan/350z/suspension-steering/braces/20746-350z-ultra-racing-rear-lower-brace-4-points-rl4-1259.html Has anyone fitted this. And is it a straight swap for the OEM. Regards bolts (I am expecting some to be knackered when they come off there are two type listed: https://www.torqen.uk/nissan/350z/suspension-steering/braces/5596-350z-nissan-oem-w-brace-hardware-kit-74870-cd200-hwk.html Is this correct?

zelda Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 I've fitted that item to mine and it was a straight swap. Not sure about the bolts though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EcoFriendlyAL Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Had both front and back from Torquen, good fit but mechanic had problems with rusted up nuts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ridz Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Just had my W brace replaced with an OEM part, and can also confirm that the main difficulty is removing the rusted bolts, so it would be prudent to order new bolt set. The Nissan part number for the bolt set is Z1123422 Hope this helps 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have drills & taps handy The frustration I have is getting under the bloody car lol. Will have to take it to the local garage so he can put it on a ramp and pay for labour. If it wasnt for health and safety and insurance I'd buy a dissused garage and hire it out by the hour for people wanting to do work on their cars - 'fixyercaryerself.com'. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
