While I was working on my car today, a guy came in offering a water based solution that acts like Radweld but cos it's water based, you don't get the sludge build up. It fills the leak and then the rest stays in the cooling system untill it's flushed next. Also said it's a solution for a damaged heater matrix. Anyone ever heard of anything like this?

Has this place become really quiet? Has everyone gone on holiday or something? I have noticed that it has not been as active these last few days or so...

Right then was at a cruise last night (got stopped by cops and giving a formal warning WAHEY!) And my mates were loving the Blow off valve in my car but they kept referring it as a Dump Valve and i kept having to say NO ITS NOT!!!! So my Question is What is the difference or is it the same thing?I though dumpvalve was more linked to the Exhuast system where as blow off was more to do with the Turbos but then again i am a Mechanical Idiot :P Let me know lads its good trivia this :) Thanks Munny P.s Any1 going to Ultimate Street Car Nxt wkend?

this ebay firm import lots of spares and are london based. looking to poss by box but I have seen many of their adverts and they all state box has only covered 30k which makes me a tad suspicious as well, they all can't have done this. I'm not slagging them off as you can only comment as you find and just wonder what others think of their service if used. cheers

Spotted a nice 'H' plate with gold wheels (I think), driving through Maidstone town centre during the River Festival on Saturday afternoon; looking good! I was going the other way in a black cherokee, so if you saw me and missus giving you the thumbs up you may have wondered why! :D

Well after the other week http://www.300zx.co.uk/forums/showthread.php?t=97530 I didn't change the tyres because it looks like I've sold my blue car and the guy doesn't want the wheels, which had almost new Bridgestones on and I will put on my little red. So went out on Sunday in Little Red as it was nice and Sunny, but it started to rain on the way back. I know how shit these tyre are so I was going really steady and it just begabd to about face on a long cambered bend. I hadn't eased off, touched the brakes or anything. I was doing about 40 on a bend I would normally take at 60+ in the rain with my TT. I really believe that there is something fundementally wr…

it's probably a long shot but has anyone purchased a turbo flange for the stock z32 TT. I'm using the engine in a project kit car and need to change route of exhausts. I'm looking to replace the cast elbows from the turbos and intend on trying to purchase a flange that will allow subsequent pipe to be welded to it. failing this I shall just have to opt for some to be plasma cut. also does anyone know the full specification of the stock z32 turbos please. I know they are t25 but there is a few variants in the t25 trim all the best paul

I wasn't going to put any phots up until I'd finished doing some little jobs and gave it a wash but I took some for someone tonight so thought I'd post them. I've got some replacements trims and other bits to make it pukka. I got it from the guy who was off to Miami . It had no MOT so he didn't get much interest and had dropped his price from 4k to £2600 as he was leaving in two days. I said I would come with the cash to look if he put it through the MOT. It failed on a tyre and front brake pads so I went up to take a look :) It had loads of history including £2700 for new turbos, a new oem rad £270, and a load of other stuff including the original dealers letter and a…
