a34 birmingham near jewellery quarter white ??????

looked very nice, tagaras off - must have been a bit chilly!

Just bought a new Nismo gearknob, have had a little trial fitting with it and it seems that it's gonna leave a gap between the bottom and the gaitor. Have been thinking of a few different options but just wondered what people had done who've fitted after market gear knobs, and if they got a replacement gaitor which one did you go for? Cheers.

just want to say thanx again to greg and Daves Zed for the info and help and thanx to slick pete for the new belt you gave me today. Its working a treat for now :dance:

Hi all, I am a new comer to the world of the Z car and bought my first car a couple of months ago. A 1990 Fairlady Non Turbo, Jap import. First the power Steering pump went, now replaced. Then the Charging light stayed on on the dash, checked the battery with engine running, only 11v. I assumed the Alternator was going so bought A brand new one. Fitted it today and still the same problem, Charging light stays on and 11v at the battery. Help please I am gutted!!! Stu

Is there a left or right or do they fit both side :confused:

Feel free to call me an idiot as this is the second time I’ve been caught out like this. There I was getting more and more worried about an increasingly wobbly back end: have the shocks gone, why can’t I get the HICAS fixed, have my bushes dribbled and can I please keep this damn thing on the tarmac where it belongs. http://www.event-tyres.co.uk came round on Friday to junk the F1s in favour of a pair of Falken 452s and when I drove home – what joy. Much much better back end. Still needs work but no longer shimmies over bumps or feels like it’s going to spit me off the road at any time. All because the nuts were properly tightened. (Unfortunately they managed to put …

not sure if it's english :wack: But hope you understand what I mean :dance: Someone in France is telling me he can make my oil pan modify for around 150£ but he has to send it in UK. Do you know who do that in UK ?

how much would it cost to fit and spray a 99 spec front bumper and remove the rear spoiler and fit a tail gate skin? :) just a rough price will do!! regards, nick

Ppl, Are the Tagra blinds the same between models and years... i.e will blinds from a 92 jap spec fit a 94 uk spec and so on. Cheers Neil

just fitted the apexi induction kit . didn't fit straight away . had to take out the two plastic covers to get it to fit . is this correct . any one have any pictures of how it should look when fitted . i did get instructions . but they are in japanese . [not to good on japanese] so any pics would be great . cheers :dance: :dance: :dance:

Just to make sure im right, can someone tell me how to loosen and remove all the belts at the front, fan, alternator etc? Thanx

Hey everyone, got a lift home last night from the rac :cry: but its ok, the cars still in one piece, i just need to tighten the fan belt up (unless its stretched too much) Question is: How do i tighten it up?

Jaffa! :duffer: hope you have an awesome day! :dance: x

Can anyone tell me what the resistance value would want to be if I was to use this LED type, and run 12vdc through it? If I was to run more than one LED in parallel, how would this affect the resistance value? All help appreciated :bow: Edit, also how could I run some LED's, on a separate run, brighter then others on another run?

Does anyone know of a product that removes adhesive left over from velcro etc on the dash without damaging the dash? I had this really sh***y velcro holding my head up display, and it melted in the summer sun and fell off! I now have some better stuff to try and want to clean all the old s**t off first, tried a few things without no success.

what shall I do???? ok, most of you who have been around the club a while know of all the problems I have had so I won't go in to them. now I have spent so much on it iv completely lost count and I don't know whether to keep putting money in to it or just buy another one. all my car actually needs is a new engine then the rust off the arches sorted (its getting worse) then I want a wide arch kit and some nice wheels. alternatively do I just but one done already that I like??? I don't really have any particular price that I don't want to pay or anything, would just want a minter. what do you all think?

right heater matrix has not been bypassed but i have no heat i need input - any ideas :cry:

Right only had the car a week and it is my first zed, 1991 Jap spec TT. The idel on the thing is rough as hell will not idle smooth when cold or warm and smells very rich. Will fault code the ECU tomorrow morning but what do I need to adjust / look at first? also the car is fast idling when warmed up when coasting (holding clucth in while moving) and also when you pull up to a set of lights / junction any ideas?

Bit of advice on what to buy. I want to lower the Z as am sick of you all calling it a 4x4. Whats the best way of doing it? IE what do i need to buy? Seen these http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=010&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&viewitem=&item=200066119153&rd=1,1 or these second hand. http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=001&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&viewitem=&item=110077339475&rd=1,1 What do you guys think?

I bought mine about a month ago (friday before chrimbo) and have been planning to complete the car from scratch to what i want, after talking to quite a few people and spending the day with a bodyshop looking at all the options to get this car the way I want it doesnt make sense money wise for me to do it to the car ive got :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: I dont have the money for a showcar or to bring it up to the level of some of the members on here, I thought it would be cheaper then it is and is my fault for not doing my research first. I am not a fan of the pearl white so it would have to be bare metal resprayed as i wouldnt be happy with just a colour change, I tho…
