Just a quick question regarding your car's flares. Given your car started life as an ARX, are they ARX flares or Axis flares? I think the overall shape of both are the same, but the main difference is that Axis flares have a rubber gasket that goes between the fender and the plastic flare - you can just make it out in the image below. My guess is that because the Axis flares are painted, the gasket stops vibrations between the flare and body that would otherwise cause the paint to chip on the flare (ARX flares being usually unpainted). I assume you have ordered the black Axis fender from eBay. Hopefully the gasket on a black Axis is not black (It's hard to tell in the second image) as that will stand out on your lighter coloured car.

For what it's worth, I reckon when it's finished it will look great. A gold Axis will be very unique - unless the one below is not yours in pre-accident days, in which case it won't be so unique .

Tie rods and tie rod ends

[bigkevracer]

350Z parts?

[adambruv]

Sure are,

Anyone know how to remove this tie rod ? I cant seem to get the little part off the end ?

[slippylotion]

Just use a flat head screw driver and hammer to straighten them out. Then use 2 spammers to undo it.

[adambruv]

Yea I realised you just bend them back and it un screws then put the new one in lol

oh.... when my car was new, it failed the Vic roadworth on the drivers side tie rod... Ben at Northshore sorted out the parts, but they were the 350Z part, plus a conversion kit for M35.. Extra packet in the package.

[bigkevracer]

Cheers Nick. Figured as much. Hard to tell what is and isn't the same 4WD to 2WD in these things...

Josh, is that the same Valium that gets rid of the cigarette smoke smell from your car?
