Does anyone know where I can get an uprated clutch fork? Mine has snapped since fitting the ACT paddle clutch and I'm a bit worried about using a standard Nissan one again @ £40 :eek: Already got a stronger pivot ball as I thought that's what had gone :nono:

I know this is a 300 forum but........ Driving along the Hampton Court Way yesterday my eye was attracted to a blonde lady in a blue Supra. The car had a high rear spoiler and BBS-like wheels 18" I reckon. The lady......blonde hair and a lovely smile :D

i've been browsing for wheels i like and can't find many but came across some really tasty ones. they are 19x7 but also availible in 18x7.5 but like the sound of 19" :dance: would these go straight on they are the correct fitment also whats the biggest tyres i can fit to these eg. 265? also what profile would i go for the best ride, fitmant and not scrub? One other thing if i was going to get a set of toyos what model are the ones to get? Oh i just lied one other thing promise this time :tongue: has anyone heard or used http://www.performancealloys.com in nothern ireland????

Just overheated twice within 10 miles. Drove home, 4 1/2 miles temp gauge was hot as I pulled into the drive. Put about 5 litres of coolant in. Drove back to work, overheating again, really wet on the top right hand side near the radiator cap, also onside wheel arch very wet. It's a new rad cap, I suspect this is the problem, but could a dodgy rad cap, if it's releasing it's pressure too easily empty a radiator in under 5 miles?????? Or could it be a symptom of something else? Thought there may have been a lot of condensation coming out of my exhausts this morning - am desperately hoping it's not a head gasket. How do I check this? Cheers for any help, …

Is there any info anywhere on COMPLETELY removing the abs system, not just disabling it ??

hi guys wonder if i can get some advice, are the jap standard front alloys the same as the UK ones? if not what difference is there and woould it affect the car if I put 2 x jap alloys on the front? thanks

I know ive seen a link translatig the jap fusebox into english with pics but i cant find the link anywhere ...anyone know where it is please as can understand a word !!

This is exactly what I was describing happened to mine when I put the skyline brakes on then started to really use them, why my ABS has the fuse pulled at the minute and is soon going in the bin.

My car has door mounted seatbelts and ive heard that there is a retraction device of some sort when you switch off the ignition, anyone got any info on this, or know where i can find out more A couple of times now ive shut the door and the seatbelt hasnt retracted either by the above method or on the usual springs, and its only a matter of time before i catch my paintwork with the buckle :cry: :confused:

Hi just wondered if anyone on here's got this front spoiler. going to be purchasing one soon and im seriously tempted. but is it O.T.T? i dont think so, but i'd love to see it in red.

trying to get a hold of one any ideas :headvswal

:headvswal Another fault to go with my nice shiny hicas light. Moving the car on the drive earlier and realised I have no reverse lights at all!!! checked fuses and all ok. It's an auto box so does anyone know where the reverse light switch is and is it easy to get to?? (probably not knowing these Z's) Only had this car a week and have an ever growing list of probs!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've seen these on Ebay? What does everyone think? Anyone else purchased them? Yampiedog

I am a little concerned with the illumination given by my headlights. They seem very dull, has anyone else suffered this or do they have suggestions on how to improve them?

hi guys the trim on the exterior of the pillars (you can see where the chrome is visible on the pic indicated by the arrows ) has come off, is there anything I can use to apply on them or where might I get the replacements from (cheap as poss ;) ) thanks Lee

Asked this before, then got sidetracked, anyone know where the wiper relays are, specificaly for the intermittant wipe cycle? and should the cycle change as your driving? ie sweep once, then maybe sweep three times, then pause between swipes change, its now beginning to realy annoy. :headvswal :headvswal

Dear All, Driving home this evening and I started getting this weird buzzing noise from above the small panel behind the two interior lights in the centre of the car. Sounds like there's an electric motor in there or something but I've no idea why there would be one -- seems a bit of an odd location since there's nothing up there apart from the lights and the centre strut between the targa panels. Anybody got any ideas? It's driving me nuts. I'll see if I can get it open on Friday since I'm planning to fit my new stereo then so I might as well disassemble a bit more of the interior whilst I'm at it. ;) Thanks, Bart
