I have read lots and lots of info on HICAS and its removal on this site and it has been very useful. What seemed to be lacking (or at least I could not find it) is a clear list of who supplies the HICAS eliminator bars, what sort they are and how much they cost. Who has bought them and where from?

i have I have been doing some research on FS5R30A/RS5R30A manual gearbox from Z31/Z32 Turbo; I have been working on converting from an H paten to a Sequential gearbox by removing the side of the box and removing the gear stick shaft and replacing with a sequential unit. I know it a bit mad but hay why not...! “Flappy paddle shift”.......! Right does anyone know the bell house bolt hole dimensions for above gearbox/ room under transmission tunnel, and does anyone have a gearbox which gears or bearings have gone which I could buy, if you can help please email me @ iain.knight@tesco.net :smash:

I have a problem with coolant leaking for the last few days, getting gradually worse. Today it decided to pour out, I managed to get the car up and look underneath. I managed to take a photo of where it was leaking from:- This is a view from the underside of the car, sorry if its not to clear. I dont think its the thermostat leaking as I have checked around the housing. Any ideas would be most appreciated. Thanks ZX_Steve

Ive seen this car twice now, A few days back with a lady driving into the Shell petrol station Horsham Road, Littlehampton, then yesterday, zooming away from the Rustington golf centre A259 to wards L'ton. Think its on a H plate, very tidy, no rear spolier, but going like the clappers. My van wont keep up.

Anyone know where I can get EGR blanking plates for the plenum? I'm installing Smithy/Leon headers with no EGR hook up so the EGR must go. Z1 has them in stock for $45 but it will cost another $40 for shipping. I know a few people have made their own, maybe someone made a couple extra or would be willing to machine a few. Failing that, do any local traders carry the 300 degree kit?
