Does anyone know if the boot blinds can be taken apart and bits changed over,got 2 bad ones but could make 1 good one if so:D cheers paul

I've De-spoilered the Z (the foam type on the S1) and need to fix the perspex strip onto the tailgate, so although it will be fixed to the back by the clips it will still rattle around so i need to know what the stuff is i need to "glue" the strip on? I'm sure it's a black substance that comes in a yellow tube but i could be wrong.

as above white z with kit and white rear lights incl center panel nice;)

going up sittingbourne road it had been a month since i'd driven the car and forgot where the stalk was to flash my lights so just made myself look a complete numpty by waving like mad.........lol :eek::eek: think the first three letters of reg was MDZ

Just put new discs on the rear of my zed, preperation for mot as the cars been of the road now for a while, anyway doing the discs themselves was straight forward enough, i have to install new pads aswell, never tried this before, read a few guides on the proceedure, is it really necessary to replace all the shims etc.... can i not just slide the new pads in??? and also noticed that the inboard pads have less wear on them than the wheel side, are the pistons seized???? Oh and another thing anyone got BMC cap floating around?? cheers all.

White uk spec going past aldershot town football club at about 8 ish last night anyone on here? I was in my black golf waiting to pull out of readan road.

Right. Seen one advertised. BUT, how the heck do I tell if it's genuine or a mock-up short of taking it apart? (Garage would not be a fan). read an archive file on here which seemed to suggest a few points but also said specs could vary so gauges/interior/stickers were not always reliable! :wack: however, it has engine-bay plaque, badges and bodykit & exhaust looks correct, wheels aren't, but IMHO how many Z's have original (even special edition) wheels???

due to a few personal problems at home i may be selling my pride and joy, its a TT import done 105000 miles and has just had the 120K kit provided by DTA and fitted by Andy duff, i was thinking of putting it for £2000 and see what i get knocked down to, just a thought at the moment but its more than likely gonna happen.:cry:

Just looking through ebay and found this! Going cheap for a 99 spec gearknob!! http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=150265030644&ssPageName=STRK:MESE:IT&ih=005

Does anyone know how I can remove the dark tint on my rear lights? They have a few coats of the spray tint and then laquer over them?

Does anyone know anyone in the Nottingham area who will pass my Z through an MOT with dark tinted rear lights and an "illegally spaced" number plate (although completely legible)? It is due soon and need to get it sorted if not. Thanks

New to zeds so be kind :) my car has mph clocks but the needle goes up far to quick so assuming its still kmph. What do i need to correct this? thanks

very odd....happened yesterday i looked out of the kitchen window and noticed the drivers side headlamp was on....when checking the dash etc everything was set to off....so fiddled with the indicator stalk and light switch and it went off....but came back 2 hours later.....did the same thing again it went off....any ideas what the hell that is all about?

http://www.alloywheelrepairs.net Reason I ask is that one of my front wheels has developed a slight flat spot on the inner part of the rim. Not noticable from the outside, but I am getting mild vibration around 70mph through the wheel and is difficult now to balance. Because my wheels are forged not the cheaper cast type, the flat spot can be rolled out quite successfully. The guy I spoke to here says it's an easy job on my rims, especially where the deformity is. Just wondering if anyone's used them? The guy that refurbished my rims doesn't have the facility to go into that detail with them unfortunately. So found these guys on the internet. Seem…

Where do I get metal ones? Does anyone know how much?

NA which I bounced over a curb about a month ago. Ever since the engine has had a vibration worst at about 2000 RPM. running on 6 pots and nothing seems to have come loose and engine revs very freely. any thoughts what it could be.

Severaly beaten with the ugly stick Nice wheels though.

Hey all My radio is doing strange things, It starts and then dies, if I pull the 10 amp fuse out of the car under steering wheel it comes back to life as soon as I turn it on and start the radio it dies again? If I chnage it for a 15 amp fuse if lasts longer but eventually dies as well? Any ideas?

Just thinking, what performance figure difference's are there between stock and 500bhp z, for example, 0-60, mid range, top speed, is it a huge amount of difference?

Turning into Church Road Hanwell London yesterday evening........?

just bought some of these, should arrive in the next few days, do you have to do that heating up of the original lights to get them off the car, and what do you use to reseal the 99 spec lights so that water doesnt get in

Just been going through some of my old back up discs and found some of the z run so thought i would post up some of the pics :) Mike

Hi! I have purchased a Zed, and when I will go to buy the car, I want buy Wheels alloy too. And, the question, it is possible put the 4 original wheels over the seats and inside the trunk? Thanks:bow:

anyone got a pic of these fitted, do they get rid of the big bush at the front of the car????

Where the seal meets the plastic moulding in the bottom corner of the window has been tampered with or melted on my Z. Is it possible to replace this seal and is it an easy job. Would it be a nissan only part?
