I've finally got around to sorting my central locking out. It doesn't activate the passenger side one. In short, what has happened is that, at some time, water has got into the control unit on the drivers door and shorted a few resistors out, and I'm assuming has blown the pcb board in there, so it doesn't work. The alarm control works fine, as it has a separate actuator to do this. What I'm after is either someone who is prepared to breath life back into the pcb, or does anyone have a replacement unit? The part number for the unit is 8058037P00, it is located in the drivers door (RHD) at the bottom of the locking mechenism. TIA

Hi to all, need a question answered if poss..I'm changing the oil in my diff and need to know how much it takes to fill it ( I have removed the cooler system on it - only the uk tt's have these..) ) Would this mean the amount of oil to fill a diff would be the same as a jap tt? as it never had a cooler system on it anyway. I'm asking just to be on the safe side. There is a marker on the diff itself which basically says full ( as such ) Any recommendations also on the kind of oil and where i can get me some would be much appreciated !! Mark

I performed an oil change myself at the weekend on my TT. Changed filter with an OEM part and used Magnatec 10-40w. Have checked the dipstick and the right level of oil is in the car. When i fire her up the pressure initially rises to between 4 and 6. after driving the car, the pressure drops then when i pull up and idle the engine, the needle drops to below the 2 mark. Any ideas on what i need to do or is this ok??

Anyone had Rotor Disc brake discs fitted ? My front discs have only done 2000 miles and have started to warp.

a nearside front headlamp bulb from please? A friend who looked at it says it looks as though the whole lamp has to come out in order to change the bulb - is this right? Thanks in advance guys :-)

When i drive, I can feel a slight clunking / movement (very slight). What should I look at, is this ball joint, suspension or something else?? Also what suspension upgrade would be recommended and also the cost for parts and rought cost for fitting?? thanks

What pistons and conrods would be sufficient for a big build, i'm doing this bit by bit and need to look at replacing these soon the rest can follow later. I want to build the car upto 700+bhp but need pistons and conrods which can take the stick. what are Wiseco pistons and eagle rods like. They must be Cheaper than Jun, Greddy etc. for a reason are they amble for this kind of build. Reason why i don't just get Jun is because i'm on a budget and by the time you take everything into consideration this soon mounts up.

Hi, ive got a 98 200sx s14a, was looking at some 300zx's and noticed how much they are, was thinking of maybe swapping!! Im only 20, I pay 3k insurance on the 200sx! Just wondering if anyones swapped from a 200 to a 300 and if they have what are the differences like in insurance? :bow: :bow:

I have been looking around at 300s for a while now with a view to buying one in the near future. If possible I would prefer a UK car however all of the ones I have seen advertised, without exception, are imports. How easy is it to find a UK car? or is it better to buy a cheaper lower milage jap import? Cheers :)

ok, as in some of my other posts (sorry if this is starting to bore people!), i shall be removing some of the less mandatory parts.

All Is anyone running an Apexi Oil Pressure gauge? I fitted the greddy sandwich plate on saturday so all I need now is the Oil Pressure sender unit that never came with the gauge.....(Ebay) I am guessing that I'm gonna have to contact an Apexi retailer as I'm gonna need all the correct wiring too.... Just thought I'd check if anyone has a spare sender unit/wiring.....
