After 5 years of trouble free motoring using the Z as a daily drive it's failed the MOT for brake pipes. Took it to my usual friendly(seem to have a bit of interest in cars) MOT station only to discover that the guy who ran it has sold up to some bunch that want to make some money flogging repairs and tyres. It failed on corroded brake pipes, although I think they probably mistook some of the brake pipes for power steering pipes as a few days later they started leaking power steering fluid! So it's Z off road, do the job right, replace all the brake pipes and power steering pipes! Looked at it decided it's not a weekend job so have bought a super duper '98 Honda…

Please help!! Anyone know where I can get hold of a wiring diagram for a clifford 650??

Anychance can people put up a few pics of there rear skirts fitted. Nice to see a few rear skirts as im not to keen on mine. makes the Z look dated :( Plus its a nice excuse for people to show off there cars

I guess this comes up from time to time and a search will produce some stuff, but................ I have some bog standard pretty awful speakers in my Zed. I have an Alpine header which is excellent. I want to change the 4 speakers (no tweeters anywhere I assume?) So what is a good combo? I want good bass response from the rear set and a pair of good range 2-way spks for the front. What's the smart money on? I don't mind enlarging the apetures a tad to acommodate slightly larger ovals. cheers Chris

Need some assistance, Front web of the crank reads f1101, I assume 'f' means front? Rear web of the crank reads, upside down!, 100111, where is no 1 cylinder on that? The block has no 2 stamped for the mains, and the pistons, so thats simple. Checked out Courtisey nissan; http://www.courtesyparts.com/z32/oe_pistons-rings-rods.html Thats no help as these nubers are stamped in a different position. Anyone confirm for me please??
