HB mate :duffer: :duffer:

As cars in the air, I wobbled th rear wheels side to side. They rock and can see movement which I guess is on the ball joints. I assume there should be zero movement? If I need new bits, I may just put the brace on and get rid of it. Oops, wrong forum :wack:

Well as i have prety much decided/finallized the exterrior, i turned my hand to stuff for the inside, been looking at alsorts of different gadetry and the like, read the thread about the greddy informeter, and it got me thinking, if i can do away with an abundance of gauges and get a few of the electronic gadets. the probleme i having is working out which one's i really need and which one are usefull but just look trick? obviously a boost controller has a very usefull perpose. i have a few in mind if anyone has any thought's on these i'd be greatfull: Apex'i RSM Apex'i S-AFC Apex'i AVC-R Greddy Profec b2 Greddy informeter Also if anyone…

I've had a bit of bad luck. Car ended of the road and the front does not look good. including steering. So I'm looking to import a car for parts. Does anyone know of a internet site that seels 300zx parts cars??

Saw you today, around midday. Driving down the high street. High level spoiler, split rims (red centres). Seen it before too.

This morning just before 9.00. I was in my Z on the way for an MOT and passed him, so we almost had a mini convoy there for a few miles :) Your car looked as good as ever Jack :cool: Gaz

Quick question. About to put a set up on Ebay and was wondering if Z coilovers were compatible with other Nissan brands. I'm guessing the R33 might be? Cheers, Leigh

Coming up Anston Avenue at 8.30am :cool:

my alternator is fairly un-noticeable without any load, but as soon as you put lights or screen heat etc is seems to make a semi loud crackling sound like the hamster inside tripped over and all of the coins fell out of his pocket... its been doin it for some time and i havent had any probs... lately iv been using it less and less and the battery has been gettin low, so, when i last drove it i gave it a run for about 25mins to recharge but a week later its too low to start the car... one thinks that maybe the alternator is only just producing enough juice to keep the car running but not to charge the battery? ...i guess this is a silly question until i do an amp…

10" wide wheels on the back without any mods to the body work, has anyone done it ?, if not what's the widest i can go ??? i have 8" on the back at the moment and there seems lots of room for another 2"... What about the offset, what will it have to be ???

i have a uk tt series 2 auto in need of a new alternator, how limited am i to what alternator i can fit..?... any difference between jdm, n/a, manual, year??? thanks in advance, joel

Thinking of carrying out a manual conversion. Can anyone advise on potential problems like can all bellhousing bolts be accessed? Haw difficult is it to fit pedals etc.

hi guys does anyone here know the part number for the nissan 99 spec front bumper?

3 Starts ago Now is that LEFT as in inside the car (passenger side) or outside the car (drivers side) ??? CheerZ Paul

right im as scatty as they come.... cant remember if the zed had central locking when i got it or not (whats the standard??) had my alarm fitted with central locking a couple of months ago and they had to fit some motor thing with the alarm ... (so more than likely didnt have central locking - who knows) anyway - now when i lock the car with the alarm, my driver door locks, but the passanger one doesnt. I popped into Sextons where they fitted the alarm few minutes ago, and the guy reckons its not anything to do with the alarm, but its a 'car fault' so something is up with my door locks..... stumped! Anyone had problems like this b4.... what did u do? :c…

Just wanna say a big thanks To Mark and especially Martin for all the hassle i caused them in trying to get my car recovered and repaired. The car developed a water leak from one of the hoses which was surprising as i knew i had most of them replaced......i urgently needed the car repaired as i was in the process of getting the I.C.E fitted Mark sourced a few much needed parts for me and i couldint even say thank you for how quick he got them for me Martin stayed up till 3 in the morning (YES THATS 3 IN THE MORNING) for the arrival of my vehicle on a tow truck and worked on it while he was ill, a great guy and mechanic may i say........to top it off he stay…

mm I'm strugling with the wheel diameter size, as the program for calculating the size from the tyre size only goes as low as 30 series and my car is running with 25 series, unless someone can give me the exact mm diameter for 315/25/19?? richard
