Random Little Question Thread
Im getting used OEM suspension from a 350Z or a g/z combo, I am still trying to figure out exactly what Im looking for. (Unrevised/revised and all the combos possible)
Ive taken a quick look though, and it seems they are usually in the range of 80-120 for a set. So if I can get camber for all the wheels for like 300 or something that would be good. It may turn out that I only need it on one axle too.
Correct me if Im wrong - I only need a camber kit if I cant get the camber within spec as is, right? So I could just get springs, go get it alligned, and if they say they couldnt align the rear, I could just go get rear camber. Is that correct?

And over 1-2" you'll need aftermarket toe bolts also because the stock ones have hardly any adjustment (rear). Those are cheap though.
This guy needs camber kit and toe bolts.
Dunno what you were looking at but IIRC around $400-700 for front AND rear with toe bolts.
$500 limit to drop your car? No sir, that won't happen unless you do it improperly. Save up more money.

My parking brake doesn't work on my 03 5AT sedan. I found a writeup on here, but it was for a 6MT with the handle. Mine is the foot brake. Also, none of the pictures loaded in that writeup. I found the part int he service manual about adjusting it, but I have no idea what it's talking about. Can someone point me in the right direction?
If I can get front and rear with toe bolts for 400, I can do that. That is actually close to my spend cap because used oem springs are fairly cheap. Can anyone show me where I can get camber + toe bolts front/rear for around that price?
If the 350Z upper control arm is different like I'd suspect it is, you could try to get one of them with the 350Z spring for the front. pure speculation though, I have no idea if they're different.
Dual climate wont work?
Ok. Just swapped my display unit and now my dual clumate wont work? All the wires on the wiring harness seemed to be fine. What could the issue be?
P.S. I tried searching first

if only your DCC went out I'm guessing its most likely a problem with the AC board itself, if you have an OEM stereo then gear up for a boatload of other stereo/AC problems until the thing just flat out dies... may i suggest you turn your temp to 75 and put the fan speed on the second notch. when it dies your ac settings will be locked in place. mine was blasting 90 constantly
as for a solution? if you're rockin OEM, go with a double din(not metra) setup. if you're already rockin a double din, try out a new AC board. and btw, when it comes to circuit boards, try not to touch the semiconductors(resistors, transistors, ICs etc.), the grease from your fingers will get on them and as they are working(and giving off heat) the grease will heat up and can fry the component. that could be what happened to you idk.
My cousin has his stock ones off his 350Z so we can compare and see if that's an option (would be a really sweet option, considering stock 350Z suspension parts should be pretty readily available)
I was trying to upload a picture of what I found under passenger kick plate, but the upload is failing. Can anyone point me to a comparison of 2003.5 / 2003.0 ECUs so I can tell which one I have?
^If you unplug it (you have to flip the arm/latch to get it to come off) look at the connectors on the ECU itself. If they are black, it's new... gray is old.
I unhooked a black latch and pulled it across, that slightly lowered what I think is the ECU and it is gray. Am I SOL?
