Alloy wheel repairs in scotland just called after TWO WHOLE months of fixing my wheel its finally finished.. wooohoooooooo no more driving around with one odd wheel and i can finally get my tracking done. cost me £170 in total. I wont be side smacking a kerb anytime soon i tell thee. will let ya know of the results when it arrives. oh and heres a pic of the wheel before.....

Having insane trouble finding places that sell gauges. Where can I buy Prosport ones like ta, Jay

at the moment i have adjustable shocks & coilovers all round, but the ride is rock solid, you feel every little bump. i want a set of springs thats going to soften the ride, but not too soft so it bounces all over. any suggestions guys for those who have tried different setups ?

i need to replace one of my wiper blades. Are there any blades that show a serious improvement over the cheap halford refills? Did anyone try these flat blade ones on ebay in the end? http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=105770&highlight=wipers any reports?

can someone tell me what the std rolling radius of the z32 is? i.e with std wheels and factory recommend tyres.... The question i have is if my rolling radius is LARGER will the speedo be showing FASTER or SLOWER than i am acutally going and how much difference does it make in mph per cm increase/decrease. I am actually running a HUD with digital readout taken from the ECU but i guess the same rules apply as it takes the factory rolling radius when it calculates the speed from the wheel rotations. Just want to know so i know i am safe when going through speed cameras!

Spot the difference competition :nana2:

I know there are threads about this but was wondering what the best glue to do it with would be. I am having the screen replaced and thought I might take the opportunity to glue the peeled dash down. Anyone got any idea how long this will take as the fitter no doubt will want to get on with fitting the screen. Darrell

Anyone any ideas?-------------- Zed starts fine ,no problem ticks over fine although does hunt slightly ,no problem otherwise,drive to lights about 500yds ,stop---tickover lumpy like a plug is misfiring or something---drive on no problem---- 11 miles, stop everything fine still hunts slightly but not lumpy.It would appear that once the engine has warmed up the problem lumpy thing goes away.The misfiring thing only happens when the car has been parked outside in the evenings NOT after the car has been in the garage.Have checked the usual things ,plug top wiring connections etc all SEEM ok.Any help or ideas would be greatly appreciated. :bow: :bow: :bow: Chaz :…

Hi Guys and Gals - Like most of us I am working to a budget.

Hi Guys, new member here. I am from New Zealand, and I drive a 89' 2+2 TT. I belong to the NZ 300zx club, but you will see me on tt.net, 3zc and aus300zx too. so yeah...Hi from down under! PS: Still trying to find my way through this forum, appears though that I can't send pm's and also set a signature? FAQ says its in edit profiles but :confused:

Just got them last week, they are made by Jenvey, 45mm bore, 30mm tall. They're very compact and feature an ingenious lever and spring system which is very compact too. The levers currently face up but the bodies will be turned around so they face the engine, clearing the plenum floor for a low profile. The 2 banks will have to be preciously matched and I have yet to find a way of doing so. Some modifications to the lower manifold are required. Typical add on is the increased runner lenght, up by 50mm since the original plenum floor also serves as the runner end and the extra 30mm and 19mm from the velocity stacks + the new plenum floor (5mm) lengthen the system. Thi…

Plugged datascan in and get a code 34 - car started 0 times with this fault when engine is running. If I reset ECU and just put ignition on then i get a code 55. Minute I start the car it goes back to "code 34 - the car started 0 times with this fault" I have a 1Meg resisitor in the det sensor plug. Does this mean I still have a code 34? Thanks

Ive been using search with no avail, i cant remeber my speedo unit being taken apart, but I have no Dash Lights, the Aircon display dims when you switch the light son but no dash lights. I tried clicking on the dimmer button but nothing. Any ideas on fuses and stuff to check??

I'v given up on the idea of polishing the lip of my alloys, its just impossible to get in there properly due to the spokes being raised. So i'm gonna paint the spokes gold and the lip a bright silver. Anyway my question is this, once i have sprayed the lip can i put masking tape on top of the basecoat, to enable me to paint the spokes in the gold colour??? Once i have done that i can laquer the whole wheel in one go. Anyone had experience with this?
