Black z today in Pompey BEAUTIFUL BEAST VERY POLISHED THE BEST I'VE SEEN MINE

I've had some number plates done for my car and they look shite :mad: I asked to have the front one 25% smaller as this seems to be a popular choice which would make it about 39cm wide as apposed to 52cm? The one I've got back is 32cm and the lettering is still the same size! Has anyone else had this trouble or is it just me? Can anyone recommend anyone please that does show plates, thanks

Hi all, Have my gearbox off and the inside of the bell housing is covered in sooty oil i can understand the soot due to the clutch but why is it all oily, could this be due the rear main seal!?! What are signs of a failed seal? Cheers.

Hi all, In my Zed I have a Sony CD Changer, model number CDX-5N51W. I think it came from Nissan as an option. Problem is I am missing the cartridge where you put the CD's into. Anyone know where I can get one as there is none on Ebay. Maybe they were only sold in Japan? I could just get a new Changer and Stereo but am just after a quick fix for now. Can anyone help me? Thanks, Justin:)

As above what the best route to go :confused: A full stand alone ECU or a piggy back ECU :confused: Pro and cons for both please Neil

Hi All, I have looked at all of the posts that appeared when i did a search on Steering Wheel Vibration.. Ok - so by the looks of it mine, which is the steering wheel vibrating at around 60-80mph and when breaking at speed could be the Tracking, Balancing or propshaft bearings. (Had the discs checked when i had my front pads changed).. Just wondered what actually cleared the vibrating up on people cars...what was the outcome? Thanks Ed

Sent away for better 6000 something brill bulbs was told they would exchange easy but the fiittings are very different.

....In particular 350z ones. I appear to have clearance issues (between caliper and wheel) after fitting my golds today. I haven't yet received my caliper bolt washers, but don't think this is going to affect the clearance issue! Has anyone else who's fitted Brembo golds (especially from a 350) had problems with caliper clearance? What kind of sized spacers sorted it?? Also, why are there two bleed nipples (feels painful writing that!!)? Does it matter if I bleed the outer or the inner one first? Cheer, ta and thank you very much!

any one got an expansion tank if i need one got a 1990 tt import and are they difficult to change

I have inquired into prices for a cam belt change and had quotes from £180 up to over £500. Some are specialists, others like JEM and then the rest good reputable garages. How can there be so much difference. A cam belt is a cam belt, a good mechanic is a good mechanic and a V6 is a V6 (don`t take that literally, lol). Never known such a wide range of prices for a job. Any thoughts?

Seeing there has been a couple of posts up about this mod, I have been thinking what a great improvement it is over the stock orange lights. I'm sure a couple of years ago I saw FAQ on how to do this by putting the lights in the oven etc but can't find it anywhere. Does anyone have a link to it? Thanks, Justin
