Did you notice oil in te spark plug chambers? Simply putting 98 in the car won’t help if it’s mixing with 95 from your last fill up. Highly likely it’s a misfire, but if that was the case you SHOULD get an engine check light if it persists. He car feeling better after an ECU reset is because t...

350Z Bleeding coolant lines
Just thought I'd share my experience changing out my thermostat this morning on the 350Z: I can't confirm for sure, but I think my thermostat was stuffed and to be safe ordered a replacement NISMO low temp thermostat to replace (as well as new fan motors and a temp sensor just to be safe). Using goo...

I’m just going to revive an old thread just because I’m bored and to help those who stumble along it asking the same question:
Short answer:
Polyurethane bushes / mounts, the rubber mounts were made with comfort in mind. Do the differential bushing and then the subframe with “collars†and you’ll notice a huge difference in suspension / chassis flex under heavy acceleration and cornering.
Go for a staggered wheel setup, I had 9.5 and 10.5inch rims, the large 275 tyres in the back kept the ass in line when putting the power down transistioning through corners, try doing that with factory mags and you’ll end up drifting. I wouldn’t touch the factory suspension (shocks / springs) if you have the track model or atleast a lot of money to do it right, some aftermarket kits a rubbish and can’t be set up properly and also require supporting mods such as adjustable camber arms / toe arms - at this point stiffer suspension will put a strain on your stock rubber mounts, bushes etc so keep that in mind and upgrade all those as well.

Your message came through 6 times haha. I ordered the Z1 Motorsports urethane bushing kit and removal tool, I’ll give this a go myself with the help of YouTube :D Sent Autolign an email and got no response. Might call them later on about some other bushings that I don’t want to try replace mysel...

Windscreen Rubber seal
Has anyone found or sourced replacement rubber weather seals for the bottom corners of the windscreen? The ones that always seam to go dry and brittle at the edges

Re: Daytime running lights and highflow cats on a 2005 DE
Looking at ordering some day time running lights to replace the ugly reflectors in the front bumper. Any issues with them? Does anyone know of a seller in NZ? Also is there much difference in the DE vs the HR style for mounting? the HR ones look so much better is all. The other thing i'm looking fo...
