Very curious to know what silly things people have done over the years, be it by accident on purpose or just plain stupidity. For example: Like last week while on the way to the tracking garage i tryed to show off doing a U turn but ended up hitting a kurb and bending a wishbone , i just fitted new inner hicas bushes which also bent. was literally right out side the garage so ended up just limping home. Wont be doing that again too soon. :mac1: :mac1: So what you guys done? and come on i know you lot are far from angels :rofl: :rofl: this should be interesting.

I'm about to place a fairly large order with Cos in the States, and amongst other things I'm buying 2 Stillen Front Lips, one for JD's V8 and one for my new NA which, aside from this and a set of Volks Racing 18" wheels I've just bought, I'm going to be returning to it's former OEM glory days. John's definately going for the Type III extension (always been a fan of the Type III stuff myself, even had the sideskirts until someone unceremoniously ripped them off :rolleyes: :( ) and up till today I was as well, however, after reading the polyurethane bumper thread (and the bumper options thread prior to that), I'm beginning to wonder about the GTZ lip. So...does a…

Of all the sports cars I have driven, I find the Z32's steering is not as good as I would like. How do I achieve a sharper turn in? I can't see any guides for improving the feel. Has anyone tried any mods to help?

went all the way to barnsley this weekend to see my sister in law only to find a filly kitted zed a few doors away in a sort of goldy pearl colour, i was gonna knock on the door but i was too p***ed all weekend, also on the drive was a gold subaru legacy, is this anyone on here

In a que to get on the M32 this morning, saw a silver 300zx with Lambo Rear lights and strosek front bumper. Looked very nice.

I tried posting this int Help Advice section but didnt get much of an answer so ill try here. Ok i know people say to just cut and wiring in the 2k headlights into the old headlight loom as the connectors are different. But there must be a wiring loom that the 2k zeds had to fit the 2k headlights that would be a simple plug and play method wouldnt there?? I know its probably the hard way to do this but i dont want to cut wires on my $2000 dollar headlights if there is a plug and play method. The other idea i have is to have an adaptor made up that will connect the old 2 connector headlight loom into the the new single connector 2k lights. All i need to know now …

Spent tonight Getting rid of the dreaded tweed.I'm high as a kite and ther's glue everywhere,light switch,door handle,toilet flush,the dog.....!Our lass is not pleased. :rofl: :rofl: :slap:

Helllllppp .... anyone know if you can replace the 2 threaded bolts sticking out from each front wing (right next to the headlamp) that secure the front bumper? One of mine has snapped and I reckon the others might go the same way. On the inside of the wing the "head" of the bolt is just a round black smooth disc, but without prising it out I cant see how it fixes in place. Can you get replacements from Nissan or am I going to have to try and find a way to fix a new bolt in there and maybe weld it in place??? Cheers Rich

picture if you will, a good condition but completely stock Z32 TT LWB Manual with T-top roof. Now add to that a full polybush kit, lower/stiffer springs/dampers (a la KYB kit) SPL adjustable camber arms front and rear, adjustable torsion bars, strut brace front and rear and uprated anti-roll bars front and rear. Add to that a nice new set of superlight 18" alloy wheels and some very sticky yokohama tyres and what have you got? no really.... what have you got? just how good would all that be? could it keep up with a modern sports car on the twisty bits? would it be usable as a daily driver? anyone got a full monty set up on here?

To All, I need some help with my drivers side door....This may make a few of you chuckle but I de-handled my door and installed a solenoid. I got it to work great but for some silly reason I was messing around with the door latch and when I shut the door, although the solenoid works and IS catching, It doesnt open!! Normally when this happens you can often push a few latches etc and hey presto....it opens but no joy...could it be a faulty door lock mech...?I know it is not the solenoid, I can manually push the door latch... Help! regards, G

This is not one of the best of examples, very dented and scratched bodywork, but very low miles of 22,500. Exterior Grade was D, (very poor), overall Grade 3.5 but only because of the low mileage otherwise this a Grade 2.5/3 car... anyhow it's one of the first i've seen in a while, even from the pic you can tell the bodywork is not that great!! Interior does look good:), the car itself is a 2+2 TT Auto... Lot's of dents and scratches shown on the body diagram!!

These any good? Bushes has anyone here gone as far as replacing all the bushes with upgraded ones how long did it take? looks like a bugger to press all the bushes in?

Hi folks, I've just had a wee service on my car and found out that my air filter was clogged badly and my air flow sensor connections were corroding. This is a K & N system, so i need to replace the air filter as it's beyond repair and to replace the sensor. I've been using more fuel than is normal and been told this could be the reason for it. Where is the best place to get a new filter and air sensor.

Hi ya can anyone help me? I have an auto tt but whenever I accelerate hard the trottle sticks open for a little while not much fun when i wanna slow down. does anyone know what this could be?
