Going past B&Q Junction 3 M18 heading towards Carr hill about 11.00.am.Saw you leaving the roundabout

My rules are: I know the road There are limited cars on the road The weather conditions are good. We all know what we are talking about here, in my view if you are nailing out of these parameters you are a fing idiot!

Have to say it's the dogs danglies :dance: only problem is I find myself revving at the lights like a boy racer! A lot more fun now i'm getting used to it. To be in control of the power for a change is very satisfying! I'm still fond of the smooth auto power, and I wouldn't knock autos, if nissan had made them better i'd still have one, but the manual really is a fun car. Gave her the hollies tonight on a long straight into a tight curve and frightened the shite out of myself lol, if I keep this up I'll be needing a new engine too :cool: :)

Think mine are on the way out. If you listen beneath the car and rev it a bit, there is a farty/nasty spluttering noise coming from them on return. It may be o2 sensor. are there 1 or 2 on each one? if mine are shot, i'd rather replace them than bypass . Are they expensive new? cheers Mick

what would cause one of the little pulley's to seize? Dont know how long its been like that, the car has been running pretty crap so took it for some TLC and found one of the little pulleys were seized? is is something i did wrong, or didnt do or just something that happens. :( :( Its since been oiled cleaned etc as a temp measure and apparently I need to get a new bearing ... :rolleyes: oh and by shite, one of my wheeels (thin strip on the inside) was down to steel :wack: Never trust a woman and a car :smash:

made it home finally after the 600 mile/12 hour round trip to pick up nice shiney wheels, sorry i was a bit anti social but just wanted to get back on the road! cheers again, nick :duffer:

just pasted this into google and spotted a pic of my car on there, quite chuffed that someone has been using the pic of my car, albeit without a spoiler bumper and arches cut lol can anyone find the post on aus.com where they have used my pic

Hi Gang.. I've recently gone to great lengths (along with the great help of others on here) to locate, and buy both a GRP SE Bonnet, and matching headlight panel.. But I think I may have made a boo boo. I have been informed that a Strosek front bumper requires a 'special' narrower headlight panel than standard fitment :confused: :headvswal Looking at some pictures of my wide arch zed tonight, it looks like it's quite likely the case :( Can anyone definately 'in the know' enlighten me further?.. And if that is the case, is there alternative styles available in this narrower fitment, and if so.. Where from? Thanks all!! GUMBALL :wack:

I have the cable and software but does anyone on here sell the activation code for it? Thanks.

Anybody have any idea which fuse is for the aerial - save me breaking my back checking everyone. lol

I reckon funkysi might be able to help with this one.... Im after pics of 99spec spoiler on a SWB....only really seen them on the LWB, including my previous TT so wanted to check how it looks before I go ahead ..oh and If anyone has a pic of it in bayside blue they can have a special prize ;) LOL

Hey folks Just bought a 300zx N/A off don who is also a subscribed member of this site,one fo the problems he mentioned to me was a fluctuating speedo,ive repalced the speedo head and that problem is now sorted however the odometer is playing up,i read somewhere about cleaning the unit and gears which ive done but to no avail,occasionally the power steering stiffens and the odo works when it pleases,im now stumped so wondered if anyone could shed anymore light on it thanks in advance Paul

hi guys gonna be needing a few bits for engine rebuild im guessing piston rings have had it im hoping bores are ok anyone know the best place to source em or am i gonna have to go to nissan also gonna completly strip top end and check tollerences does anyone sell full rebuild kits?

Had My Z32 about 6 months now. It came standard with trust/greddy cat backs. Read the sticky's here I think I'm gonna be ok but wanted to make sure before I go ahead and part with more cash. I am thinking of adding apexi air funnel and decat pipes.Question is will I need to have ecu remapped(if that can be done on stock jap '90 ecu) or have an AFR Regulator fitted. Thanks for any help in advance

my car had one of these fitted in japan but the actual controller had been removed. the soloniod under the bonnet was still piped up so i managed so source one on ebay and plugged it in. everthing lit up but i have no instructions and don't know if i need to do anything else before i try it down the road. help

Anyone seen it? Just happened to pick it up while I was at noble the other day. 1660bhp escort and guess where the power comes from a VG30DETT !!!!!!!!!!!!! gotta be the most powerful z32 engine I have heard of and its not even in a Z!

Hi all. I am havig a vibration problem under braking and think that it is the bushes and arms etc. I have had a full set of tein street coilovers fitted so it isn't that and have adjustable upper arms. What else can I replace on the front while the bushes are being done? A ist woould be great so I can order them. I fairly certain it isn't the brake disks wharped as they are also fairly new. Darrell

Hello Well on my way home my car cut out and then did the missfire thing again. It has been sat for the week as i have been away i warmed it up for ten mins before i drove home ( slow drive ) it was also raining any ideas ? I think somone said on here about the air filter getting damp or something like that it has an apexi air filter on it if that helps or could it be a problem with my maf. It only seems to do it when it is raining or after rain any ideas?

Hey chaps, (and chapesses). Anyone know of any companies supplying aftermarket body panels and sills for Zeds? My sled needed a bit of welding to pass it's annual MOTty. I've decided to replace and would welcome a point in the right direction from any member who's done the same. TIA.

Tonight at around 6pm, had just gone passed the crash east bound towards J19 Was it you!?!?
