Spotted you around 16:00 on Uxbridge road heading towards the town centre, I think the Mrs was driving. :)

Saw you coming up the slip road onto the A40, westbound, we flashed each other :dance: , then stopped side by side in the traffic light. Just wanted to say hi and was wondering if you are registered on the forum? :smash: Z

Hey guys, just bought some beautiful 17" wheels from wheelmania. They are second hand and were originally on a Supra. The tyres are, 235-front 255-rear The guy has told me I'm gonna need spacers for the front pair 10-15mm thick? Is this right as sounds like a lot? Also will I need longer bolts for this? Ta in advance

Has anyone got any pics of their engine bay, after fitting the above ? The pic on Smithy's site is quite small

Hi All :cool: I know this is VERY much a long shot but............ Does anybody know where I can buy a set of centre caps and the holding pins for the Autostrada Modena Ferrari Replicas??? I have one cap and pin left, but the missing wheels are really starting to bother me :( :( :( Even a good replacment set would be fine. Does anyone know any alternatives or ANY caps and pins that would fit? Even longar shot, but if anyone wants to part with theres I would pay silly money for a set. Anyway, any help as always is very much appreciated :bow:

Hello, I'm from holland and drive a 300zx TT LWB and yes I've got a problem :( A week ago my car wouldn't start. Appears that my positive side of the battery was loose. I reconnected the cable and started the car. Problem now is that my "Check Engine" light came on and the car drives like shit. And when I only turn my key on +15 my fuelpump starts to prime, but when I take out my keys completely.. IT STILL KEEPS PRIMING. It won't stop till I start the car. :wack: I went to the dealer and did a Conzult check.. No problems there. "check engine" light came off, so I was pleased... BUT.. Then suddenly it came on again.. .. And everytime I remove the p…

Eibach sells 2 part # for the 300zx pro-kit in US : US Turbo : 6320.140 US NA : 6319.140 As everybody knows, US turbo model is a 2-seaters US NA is a 2+2 Eibach doesn't make a kit for Europe. The overall weight and weight balance is clearly not the same on our EURO Turbo 2+2 than on US models. Which part # do you use on our Euro cars ?

I can not recall the last time i had an enjoyable drive in my car, there has always been something or another, got in it today to go to work, and missing and farting like a twat.. back firing, clouds of black smoke from the unburnt fuel, and generally pissing me off.... time to burn the fooker, ive thrown enough cash at it over the last 7 months, and im about all lost of interest in the ******* thing........ ive just stood for 20 mins in the chuffing snow, trying all connectors, coil packs the lot, and still the ****er wont run tidy.

Hi Guys :dance: I have bought the bits and peices and am now wonderingif I should send her into a garage or do the following myself: 1) Change discs and pads 2) Remove gear oil tank, clean and refill 3) Fit new fuel lines and filter 4) Full brake bleed and fluid change 5) Stainless steel brake hoses I could do all the above easy on my other car, but feel a bit intimidated by the zed :( I also noticed that the brake bleed needs another part to be emptied besides the calipers, I have never done that before and dont know where it is on the zed. :cry: To make matters worse I have the ferrari replica wheels and dont even know how to take …

At the risk of looking stupid , is there any chance of the powers that be putting up a list of what all the abbreviations that are used in the posts mean , for the uninitiated ? I mean the likes of nos , cas etc...some I can figure out , but the others mean nothing , unless I do a long and boring search through all the posts , which is a bit of a pain . A simple list of abbreviations and their meanings would be most helpful for the technically challenged amongst us :confused: Just a thought , and if there is one already ...."Must pay more attention " :rolleyes:
