Everytime I have to remove my wheels, I have a major problem getting the centre caps off as they seam to have kinda sucked on. Thought about applying vaseline or some kind of silicone spray to stop them from sticking. Any ideas if this would work cos it would be a nightmare having to try and get them off if I had a puncture :( Cheers Vijay

Hi, Is there anyway of making the spare wheel fit with aftermarket brakes? I've used the A.A before when I had a front wheel puncture but have heard of people having problems with roadside people as they should have a spare wheel that fits. Any suggestions? I suppose the tyre inflator in a can is an option? Vijay

Does any one know the internal diameter of the bottom rad hose i hope its 34mm as ive just got a hks t peice for a HKS water temp gauge of ebay it says s13 s14 skyline no mention of zed in auction thanks taff. :)

Do swb models hold the same amount of fuel than the 2x2 model i know the tanks are in a diffrent place just wondered if they are the same capacity thanks taff.

Oh bugger! Thought my new wheels were laquered on the rims but they aren't, they're bare aluminium!!!!!!!! Does anyone have the same problem and if so, what wheel cleaner can I use (and where can I get it) that won't eat in to the aluminium. Wonder wheels is my usual choice but it's acid based. Does any one use a polish after cleaning? HELP!!! The roads are getting salty. Andy

In Januarys 07 Jap performace magazzine there is a full feature on testing different intercoolers available for the Scoobies. This is an indepth test repot and one of the coolers they used was an ebay jobbie. It was good to see that whilst at 1st the Ebay one seemed to operate a fraction cooler than stock, it actually LOST power. Just for those who often think about using Ebay coolers cos they look good value! cheers smithy

Hi, Might be a silly question, but when braking do the rear wheel brakes come into use? When I brake it just feels like the front wheel are doing all the work... Thanks. snx.

On the way to work this morning the condensation on the rear window was taking absolutely ages to clear. Not sure if my electro strip things are broken I don't think so though as I was getting lines where the condensation was clearing. Anyone else get this? I'm wondering if its due to the amount of water inside the car due to over night targa drips. Cheers, Al

Hi, I have a 91 UK car with standard cloth/tweed manual seats that i am replacing with retrimmed jap seats - the drivers has electric adjustment. I have taken my old seats out and was hoping to find an unused connector underneath for the new elec seats - does this exist. I can't believe Nissan put two different wiring looms in depending if elec seats was specified or not. or will I have to wire it up myself? Thanks Phil

Hi, Can anyone tell me what these parts are? First one was found behind the bumper. The next part is in behind the wings (both sides). Cheers Vijay

Well I've got a few things that need doing/finishing over the winter before next years show season. These include, and in no particular order...... 1) Rear crankshaft oil seal replacement. 2) Change autobox fluid. 3) Replace left hand O2 sensor 4) Replace left hand Cat over temp sensor. 5) Sort rear steer problem?! 6) Move autobox oil cooler. 7) Fix drooping front bumper lip. 8) Minor remedial trim repairs for the interior. :smash: I think that should just about sort it all out, should even run better after that. Should be in time for the ZClubs France/24 Hour La Mans trip next June! So what's other peeps sorting over the winter??
