how do you get the variable cam pulley off? is the 19mm nut left or right hand thread? it seems pretty tight.

i polished the zed yesterday as it had what i thought was a lot of road film and greasy spots on it... only this morning i go out there to find its re-covered in these small stubburn sticky spots that i have to scrub like fook to get it off... my first question is, wtf is it? i dont park under a tree but i park near this bush... ... my second question is... what do i use to get it off? a clay bar or an electric polisher... etc? cheerZ Joel.

Guys & Gals, I'm due to move to Arizona this year and have been looking on eBay.com for my next Z32. However, have you seen the prices of them over there!?

If I were to buy a full set of leather seats, all manual (both drivers and passengers). in Black. Average condition - no rips or tears - minor wear on the drivers bolster... How much should I pay for them as a guide?

I looked to run my temp sensor wire and boost pipe for my pillar pod through the inner wing but that looks a PITA. There is a small plate on the left hand side beside the brake pedal would I be right in saying its where the clutch pedal goes through the bulkhead. I am guessing it wouldnt be a problem to drill a hole for the wire/boost pipe. Anyone verify this for me or is there any easier place to run them. Cheers John

Hello all, I recently checked my auto gear oil which was over filled I have just drained some off so its at its correct level, Iv been having probs before with gear changes 1-2-4-3-4 when driving hard the oil is very brownish colour obviously in need of a change, because of this would the gear changes be due to overfilled/dirty oil? theres no bits inside the oil which is good! and how much gear oil do these zeds take? on a uk tt that is!! Cheers for your time....
