Hey, Does anyone know where i could go to, to get a set of solid engine mounts made up or off the shelf? Cheers Ste

Anyone used these before? Just got some the states for my clutch and brakes, not convinced that the top bleed pipe in the clutch is the correct size but will soon find out!

Hi all, Does anybody know of a decent supplier of skyline parts?? it's for r32 rb20det gtst.... im looking for engine gaskets and hoses + possibly some other bits n pieces. cheers Jay

Hello, I have a '90 TT that seems to have blown a hole into the water gallery on cylinder 5. Have done a compression test and found all around 10.7 but with cylinder 5 low on 9.1 bar and a pressuried radiator. I have two questions, one does it seem a reasonable diagonsis and two what are my options for a gasket set, currently considering Z1 due to exchange rates is there anywhere else closer to home that has a similar price? Any words of wisdom would be good aswell about things to remember! Cheers Ste

Im looking to order quite a few parts from Z1 however i am a little worried about duty etc when the part comes over here. Does anyone know how this works or how i might get it cheaper lol :x:

Hopefully someone can shed some light on this :D , I have the chance to buy some R33 rear brembo disks and calipers from a 95 R33 GTR, now question is will they bolt straight on like the front's? Also has anyone done this conversion on a ZX?

Just received my new coilpack connectors and injector connectors I got from ebay. £70 including postage from the US, bargain. Wondering if I need to use a special solder for electrics or will normal solder do ? Fill.

how much do you think I can get for my N/A J-Spec front and rear bumpers? both in excellent condition gunmetal grey?? thinking of ebaying them to help fund a bodykit! NOTE. not trying to get round the sale rules as they arent for sale yet! lol!

Where can i get new PCV valves from please?

:rofl: :rofl:

I'm 99% sure that the Apexi Neo can run twin MAFs like the previous version, but can someone confirm before I buy one?! Rich

HB Mr Shader :D :duffer:

Guys Just a quick question. Oil cooler hoses in my Jap TT Manual are knackered. It appears that the existing pipes have been somewhat overengineered as they consist of: --10mm Outside diameter nozzle fitted to car - (8mm inside diameter) -- anodised push on grub screw connector -- 10cm length of 10mm inside diameter braided hose -- anodised adaptor converting 10mm inside diameter hose to 16mm inside diameter hose -- 50cm length of 16mm inside diameter braided hose -- anodised elbow hose end to fit to rad A local auto pipe company are going to quote me for some new hose and hose ends. However my question is what internal diameter hose shou…

Parked up in the layby...

Can anyone help me please I face a dilema. I want to buy one of the following cars a Nissan 300zx tt, Toyota Soarer 2.5tt and a Mitsubishi GTO tt. I'm doing some backround checks on what they are like to own and what power the standard internals can take before they need forging for example I have been told that the Soarer can handle upto 500bhp and still remain reliable before a forge or Supra bottom end is called for, I'm starting with the 300zx tt, Please help as out of the bunch it's a 300zx tt and Soarer I'm most interested in. Once again Please PLease Help. Arthur :hyper:

Just realized I posted this in the wrong section. Here goes again. My new 300zx has a cold start problem. It takes 2-3 longish cranks to get it started. I read on another thread that the fuel pump check valve may be the cause - fuel draining back into the fuel lines. I've tried priming the fuel lines trick (ignition on and off a few times before starting) and that seems to work. So the question is do I need to replace the pump and check valve or can I repair or just get a new check valve? I'm not sure if it's an integral unit.

hi chaps ive just seen a pic of a zed with rear arch extensions ( not a wide ass conversion ) and wondered where you get them from or what they are called i think someone on here has a pic of a zed with these arches on but cant find the pic any ideas or help mucho appreciato

Is the 2+2 Rear hatch the same as the 2+0 ??

Can anyone give me an idiots guide to fitting these?

Ok, had a problem with the rear brakes....keep on binding/locking turning the discs glowing red. Pads have been replaced and all pistons in calipers working properly....the problem has now been traced back to the rear balancing valve below the rear boot carpets i believe. Nissan want silly money for you...is it ok to source a 2nd hand one from a N/A or TT for my N/A?????
