Ricey Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Actually as its jacked up and your clearly mid job I'll be nice about it. Its a bolt to stop you putting the rears on the front. Whizz it off...........serves no other purpose 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timb2010 Posted August 30, 2013 Author Share Posted August 30, 2013 Cheers buddy. I thought It may have been a bolt to keep the disks located or something that someone had lost the bolt and put a long bolt and spacer on! Stress over.. JUST REALISED I FORGOT BEFORE PHOTOS!!!

jumping350 Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 (edited) you may have to get someone to press brakes or jam something in disc hole or disc will just spin as you try to undo that bolt on the fronts Edited August 30, 2013 by jumping350 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timb2010 Posted August 30, 2013 Author Share Posted August 30, 2013 (edited) All done and dusted! Looks a lot better, not driven yet run out of time! Thanks for the help everyone and "longsh07" for the Eibach spacers. I wedged a rubber coated screwdriver into the vented disk area to stop them moving forgot to ask, Will I need to get my tracking (4 wheel?) setup or checked now I have spacers on? why is there a smaller wheel nut on every wheel? - to counter weight the locking nut? ( I did search!) Build thread to start this weekend now ive done more that swap the wiper blades!!!!!

longsh07 Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Might be worth doing but I cant imagine it will be out my much, I never got mine checked and I dare say most others wont have either. Also the smaller nut is a new one on me, mine were all the same size Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whizz it off...........serves no other purpose Often said, but it has another useful purpose - see my post on here http://www.350z-uk.c...ubs#entry875546 Has anyone actually tested the suggestion it will stop (OEM) rear wheels being fitted on the front?
