Just wondered how bad it is for a z, been reading other forums and most of them say steer clear? anyone got any experiences from using it? noticed small leak from rad....

Is their a way it can be adjusted to fit flush, its seems to really stick out and it doe'nt look bent to me. Cheers

Just need to fit the last few bits. Then i can do some data loggs and see how lean/rich i am running with a computer hooked up. Had to drill a hole :S scary but ive sealed it up nicely and but a gromet on both ends :D Pigeon crap welding anyone :( These are the wires outputs il use to hook up to the laptop. I find a better place for them later. Gauge:

Tvr cerbera is my next car if I ever get board of the z ( very doubtful ) I have been looking up some facts and found that the cerbera is astonishly quick, especially the 4.5, 450bhp i think 0-60 in 3.9 and a top speed of 190mph, no turbos, just raw power, how would this compare to a modded z with the same power? I suppose mpg would be about the same, dont no about reliability though, TVR do have issues.

Hey, I'm looking to rebuild a VG and need to find a reputiable engineers shop to do some precise boring/honing, anyone have any recommendations?? Also anyone with facilities to check block condition, things like cylinder condition and thickness - as i don't want to go to the trobule of build a duff motor! Cheers, Ste

My problem is that the engine runs at just over 1000rpm which is to high, when I press the clutch pedal in, the revs increase to 1500rpm then bounce around a little then creeps back down to just over 1000rpm and sometimes when I press the accelerator slightly the revs drop, this happens more when it is cold and damp, any suggestions?

Hi Got my engine out and the garage tell me these could do with a refurb. Anyone got any ideas of a good engineering company that they have used to carry out the work and an idea on price per turbo? Thanks Andy.

With grey rear spoiler. Near Fratton Park. Looked like a 2+2 TT. Woman driving it.

Well someone was supposed to be selling me and autobox and torque converter for 200 quid this morning, so i booked it into the garage for thursday, ive booked the car being collected today. And now ive been let down by the box seller :cry: Is there anyone up in scotland with a box that is selling kinda cheap, oive only got about 200 to sprare, as the rest i decided to put towards my holiday spending money :smash: I need this quicker than ASAP, so please post if you have something, help me if you can :cry:

Some twat has hit my z....:rant:parked outside mine last night, must have reversed out and caught rear wing/bumper behind wheel arch...clipped my alloy too:headvswal Not very happy, just took couple pics will post up tmw. Havent tried polishing out yet but its not looking good, very pis*ed off and on the search for a white car parking near here with a scrap on it:mad:

i'm looking at getting an electronic boost controller can anyone recommend a good one which isnt to expensive. Also the same with a turbo timer thanks

As title suggests i would just like to know what side skirts are on thie car in the link. I know if you read what the author of the pic has written he is claiming to have designed them with his/her brother, however they also claim to have created the front and back bumper both of wich seem quite farmilliar. anyhoo all help appreciated and full credit for the condition of following motor! http://www.supraforums.com/forum/showthread.php?t=498918 cheers, J.

Hi Does any know were i can get standard fuel injectors for a non turbo 300, in the UK without paying nissan prices? Been quoted £125.00 + VAT each.

Has anyone succesfully found a spare wheel, eg space saver, that will fit over big brakes ?
