I use to have an OEM spoiler on my tailgate with no brake light. I have since remove the tailgate and installed on with a perspex panel which has a brake light installed. Now ive reconnected the wiring looms which were in my old tailgate but were not used however the brake light in the perspex panel is not illuminating? Anyone got any ideas?

just been to see a series 2 93 import zed... the seatbelts were not on the doors, it had the series 2 heater pod with the blower direction as apposed to the series 1 OAT, it had dual electric seats, so that was all good... my concerns are that... the brake calipers were the series 1 alluminium calipers with the heat dissapation fins and not the cast iron series 2 calipers that were on my uk spec. also, the ptu looked different to that of my series 2 uk, although i remember sum1 saying that my series 2 ptu looked different to their series 2 ptu. could sum1 be so kind as to put up a pic of what a series 1 and a series 2 ptu should look like? is there some …

Ok, had this for a while now but really could do with fixing. My darn drivers window does work at all. It used to work if you help the down button and hit the inside of the door but now nothing. Does anyone know how to fix this as its apparently a common problem

Well that's it, after 4 1/2 years of owing the most wonderful car I could ever hope for, it's gone. Sold for a pittance and definitely heartbreaking to see it drive away. Big Zed shaped hole on the driveway this morning. Told the new bloke about this place, said it was invaluable for whatever you need to know about the cars. Although I haven't been the biggest contributor over the years I certainly appreciate you all being here. So what's replaced the Zed? Well, something with a bigger engine for a start! 4.3L V6! No turbos though. Hasn't arrived yet, but it's a Jap import (from the States originally). It's a Chevy Astro Van, perfect for shoving mounta…

Hi Guys, my car has decided to sometimes not rev above 5k,sometimes its frine(usually when your trying to show people the fault),i've checked the plugs and they seem ok,tonight i got a loan of a working PTU but still no difference, its like i'm hitting the rev limiter,i thought at first it may be boost related but no matter if i'm at 1bar or 1.5bar as soon as it hits 5k it splutters, i've never had it out in the wet but i have another AFM to try incase,any other ideas? rather dangerous when you pull out to overtake and it does it. thanks in advance Paul.

does anyone know of any cleaning product that will get the black crud off my standard alloys? i dont want to be spending loads of money on all different products when they dont work. cheers Nick

I am trying to track down my old 260z 2 str..........i sold it back in 93 and had the chance to buy back about 5 yrs ago but the guy would not return my calls to finalise :headvswal . I carried out a hpi report last year and it came back written off! but when i purchased the car in 89 it was accident damaged, and i never done an hpi report so hopefully this means nothing. I spent well over 10k on this car to bring it back to show condition as well as uprating the engine [with a turbo] brakes suspension etc etc. So if any body can help me let me know. Dave
