Passed a nice looking black 300 on the way out of castleford on friday about 5pm, I was in a white tt zx heading towards the Mway - you was heading towards castleford - I didnt get a good look as you flashed the lights on the way past and due to the speed but seen enough to spot the nismo type grill between the lights. i tried flashing back but ended up hitting the indicator instead! Nice motor from what i seen!

Needed to make a claim on my insurance for windscreen yesterday, MOT due in 3 weeks. Insured with Adrian Flux through the club. Only to find out today that the maximum ammount they will pay for is £500 and the windscreen costs over £1300!! What the hell do I do now? :rant: You lot had better check your policies as I am rather annoyed, but I guess you get what you pay for.

Anyone? Cant remember the specifics i was a bit intoxicated, i was in a white manual tt with awful bodywork and moved on quickly cuz they'd run out of high octane.

Hi , fitting gearbox how much oil & what type/sort is best, Thank-you martin

Alledgedly, you can buy these connectors from RS Components, or something very similar in a material that is better to the Nissan type, i.e. more flexible and less prone to breaking. Does anyone know the type, part number etc., or even if this is true, and not a myth. Mine are well cooked and very crisp, so replacement is on the cards.

Does anybody know the rough weight of these? I'm selling them and need to tell the courier. Havn't got any scales around here. Also the weight of rear calipers + discs. Regards Dave

having just spoken to a couple of nissan dealers.... (trying to source alternator bearings...) they reckon they have to be ordered from Japan - and it takes about 3 weeks and costs £48 i dont think i can have the car off the road for 3 weeks... thats just ridiculous... does anyone know where else i can try for these bearing things.. xx

http://www.fumotovalve.com/ Check this out, it looks really good. The mazdarotary forum is orgainising a group buy and I was wondering if we should join them? I wasn't sure if it would protrude too much bearing in mind the position of the zed sump drain plug? Obviously the photo is an rx7. Anyone any thoughts, if it worked it would make oil changes a whole lot quicker. Dave

Saw a white zed with blacked out rear lights and two red stips on each door (england flag) Saw it at about 3:15 at clapham common, stoped further foward to let someone out i think then headed towards Clapham South. Looked stock from where i was standing. Anyone one here?

Hi I hope that the crash you were involved with on the M40 on Sunday about 5pm didn't do too much damage. I was the silver Zed who tooted on the way past. Hope that you and car are both fine. Spencer

Anyone look over my log file (attached zipped up). It looks lean? Am I losing power/damaging anything. Does everything else look ok? How do I fix the lean (if its running lean) as its got an aggressive fuel map so I would have thought should run rich.
