Does anyone know on where to get hold of some springs and is there a way to test the solenoid while you have engine apart to check it works properly, any ideas? Also how do i know if i need new springs? Do people generally replace them? or have they got a long life. Engine is on 70,000 mile?

I have relised something today, Autogauge gauges are utter sh@t! i now have 7 of the same Lumiglow gauge They match my dash in style and backlight colour perfectly, but keep breaking all the time! Either the backlight packs in or the gauge packs in ! what gauges do you have?

As title says, What recommendations do people have for rubber on the stock UK wheels ? Currently have Hankook Ventus on the rear 235/45/16's and 225/50/16's on the front - not sure what make. Choice of tyres for the rear appears quite limited based on mytyres.com - but just sounding out what other people are running ? Thanks, Prof.

Does anyone confirm exactly what are the differences are between a TT manual head and a TT auto head? Thx Lee

I was rudely awakened at 02:11 this morning to the soft and sweet sound of my horn going off!!! This isn't the 1st time it's happened, it went off a few weeks ago so I took the horn push out and it was silent again, for about half an hour :headvswal and then off it went again. This time I just left the fuse out and decided that it had to be the relay, had that checked and was told that it is fine. Put it back in again and the horn had been working as it's supposed to for the last couple of weeks until last night. Could it be an intermittent fault with the relay or amI going to have to go chasing wiring?

Just out of interest is it possible to change the gearbox ecu with a j spec one and add the gear hold as i'd really like to have it. I HATE having an outo but my legs knackered froma bike crash so clutch isn't a good idea anymore. Only other thing i've seen is a paddle type upgrade to the auto box

I reckon this would be a useful mod to stop fan air escaping but not really interested in the SS bling (and the price that goes with it!). I was thinking of knocking one up in ply or something but need the dimensions. Can someone with one PM me the dimensions please??

5 bloody newsagents yesterday with no luck so I had to go back to that hellhole on the North Circular that is Tesco's this am. Sorry about the quality of the jpgs as the *&%^ scanner will only do pdfs so the jpgs aren't native. After I have beaten up our IT manager later, I'll try again. Or you could even buy a copy! (support the press supporting us) Quite right too :D Thank you Ian, Classic Car Weekly http://www.classic-car-weekly.co.uk/ and, of course, Craig David. PS - just found out IT manager is skiving today so you're going to have to buy copies, you cheapskates ;)

Your mailbox is full buddy :nono: , might wanna think about deleting some stuff!!!! :D

I used to be in the motor trade and still have my contacts. Got a call today, one of them has taken a 300ZX TT auto in PX and wondered if I might want it. Of course I shot down there to find a rather tired looking old G plate. I started her up and she runs on 5 and theres no water in Rad and the HI-cas light is on cause theres no fluid in the pot. I've done a search on the site looking for something completely diffrent and saw the very same 300 for sale for £4000+ by "Antf" back in 2005. Looks like Antf looked after and loved his 300 but the owner after him doesn't appear to have kept it up.Shame Still thinking about whether to have it or not, havent f…

I let the wife take the zed for a spin last night and now she is stealing it to go to work in tomorrow. I get stuk with the laguna estate :rolleyes:. I think i might end up having to buy her one so she dont pinch mine.

My ZED started to missfire last friday :rant: , (was fine on thursday when I parked it up) noticed it as soon as I pulled away from the house on friday morning. It seem to miss more when it is started from cold but is still very lumpy at idle when hot, feels like it is holding back until revs get up over 2500rpm :confused: . I have tried looking for an error code the old fashioned way came back as 55, I have read on other post this mean no errors :confused: . I would be very greatfull if anyone could help as I have blow this months budget on the car all ready so don't want to start throwing parts at the car just for the sake of it!

does anyone know where they sell the bulbs for the projector bit of the headlight i believe they are H3C but ive been to RING and most of the car stuff shops near me and they try to fob me off with ones that dont fit ive had to send off to japan for them even the ones off fleabay came back wrong i only unearthed this problem due to a bulb going faulty and found out that the previous owner had fitted standard fog light bulbs and made a crappy earth lead up and earthed it on the bulb holder which has now burnt through i dread to think what could have happened anyone else had this problem or is it because my zeds an import
