Hey, someone told me that we can uprated our climatisation system to recharge with the new gas. Do you know what we have to change on our car? Thank for replying

As a non z owner and not knowing too much about cars just trying to get to find out as much as poss any feedback would be gladly recieved cheers

I've just been offered a full Skyline R34 front Brembo setup including 'uprated' discs. What do you think these might be worth ? Additionally, what would my std Jap Import front calipers be worth ? They're the smart aluminimum ones rather than the cast iron UK spec jobbies. I hear that the 200sx guys use these as an upgrade.

Further to the other thread(s) on how to repair your peeled dash... yesterday I noticed that due to the heat the dash was pretty flexible. I was worried it would peel of even more!! So I wedged a blanket between the screen and the peeled up section to hold it down. In the evening it stayed down :) Probably won't last long without appling glue (as mentioned in the other thread) but I reckon with this heat, now is the time to do it as the dash will press down nice and easy when hot.

See by a friend yesterday. White 300zx Parked up in Torquay. Bodykit (thats possibly been smoothed and blended). High rise rear spoiler.

anyone on here drive a black TT, big exhaust/s, dump valves, that got done by a silver skyline with 18" rims recently in w.London??

Very tasty black Zed in plymouth driving from town towards stonehouse. High spoiler on rear, maybe gold alloys. Dave

Hey all. Ok firstly i had another post on this page. Basically i've been told that my coils may have been burnt due to a bad ptu by some helpful chaps on this forum :) What basically happened woz that one coil in particular would keep burning out. By putting another one in, in this process another one got burnt and then another in the same coil area. I got told in the end by the mechanic that one of the wires must be shortcircuiting. He checked the wires the other day and hes saying that it must be the ignition control. This is where i come to a problem. 1) Do you guys think it is still the PTU causing the burnt coils? 2) Could the ignition control be a possibilty?…

hi guys does anyone know where I can get the replacement gas refill for the R12 gas in my Zeds aircon, in the somerset/devon area? :confused: cheers guys Lee

Right come on all you traders what specials you got lined up for us all then?? :hyper: :hyper:

Hi all my insurance is due for re-newal in a couple of week's and i got a reasonable quote back but i wondered if there were any of you on here that currently have your import insured on a classic policy with limited mileage. My import is now 16 years old now and i only use it mainly at weekend's so i am looking for a classic car insurer that would be willing to insure a 16year old Jap import? Any help or link's would be appriecciated. ;)

As the title.... I need to recover a drive with 160gb of data :headvswal Are there any good software packages out there that anyone can reccomend. Thanks in advance Rob

Just wondering if there are any differences due to the speed limitations on Jap spec cars. I know the import Scoobies have different ratios. Does this apply with the fairlady? Ta

Anyone know where I can get a single gauge mount? I've already got 3 pillar gauges. Don't want to make my dash look like a christmas tree but, would have to pay the garage to remove one of the other gauges so I might as well Just get a single mount. Needs to be a smart one , preferably that matches the 3 pod mount. Any ideas? Cheers Dave

What do you think caused that? i checked the water level this morning it was fine,any ideas thanks. :headvswal

Hello Chappies, had my car MOT'd yesterday and it nearly failed due to corrosion (read: leaking) on the down pipes. The garage has managed to patch them up so that the car passed but it has given me the perfect opportunity to fit De-Cats. I have searched on the Forum for info on the Cat removal but i am unsure of how much work is involved. Is there anyone out there that can give me a blow by blow account of how they removed theirs. I've been told by the garage that they are unsure what to do with the AIV hoses (pre-cat) and also the sensors just after the cat (Temp sensors?). The De-cat i have includes the turbo elbow and my car is a 91TT J-Spec. Any h…

Should I be getting any noise from my tubs? I only get a real noticeable whistle on wind up, even gentle acceleration when cold and then that's only heard for about a minute or two.

My Uk 1993 TT has a head gasket problem and I just wondered how much it would be worth in this condition. It's a series 2, in really good condition, leather is immaculate, brand new turbo's,standard car,original nissan mats and targa covers, no mods, full service history with nissan manuals etc. I've spent over £1500 on it recently and can't really afford to spend any more. Any one any thoughts?
