Im gonna get a breatheable car cover, maybe a stillen one or covercraft....just wondering because they allow evaporation, do you think you could put the cover on a wet car or are you supposed to dry it off everytime?? Dan :cool:

Im boiling down to the last stage of getting me bits for a rebuild, just deciding on me choice of tubs to put on. my t25's lasted a year after a recon got bord with them. im looking at getting 500rwhp with poss a bit more poke in them, this will be my daily drive, im more interested in faster acceleration than overall top end power. I may as well do the job properly as im going to keep the car for a while. top of my list so far is JWT 530BB (best price on these?) Uprated t28's (not to sure on these) PE 1420 (need more info on these + a best price) HKS GT2530 (need more info on these too + best price) If you could recommend any more that wo…

Hi, Sometimes, especially when I am at 30mph or below, the speedo stops working, and then will start again when it feels like it ?? Also sometimes the steering goes heavy, as if there is no power assistance ?? Any help greatly appreciated. Alan.....

Grey with high level rear-In gedling today!!!

Does anyone know if nissan do a brake master cylinder overhaul kit. I recon my m/c has died brake pedal went spongy and i found that the fluid was all aerated tried changing the fluid but somethings pumping air into the system

Help guys, I've tried eveything i know how to do. The problem is that when i try to put heaters on you can hear the engine rev slightly as per usual but the rev's soon drop and the heaters don't come on. Any ideas? Cheers Paul

do Zcentre bumpers come ready to be fitted (ie with holes etc) or do they need to be drilled and prepped?

anybody knows how to take the brake fluid tank out to change the seals? thanks

Not Mine - Mines not even running at moment :) But my wifes 200sx is smoking (I will post on the 200sx board when its back up) Just a quickie really - after driving it (fairly quick) I pull up at a junction then whilst on idle (about 10 secs after stopping) I get plumes of blue white smoke. Does this sound like turbo has gone or turbo seal? Any other ideas? I dont notice any smoke whilst moving it always seems to engulf the car when I stop. Cheers

hi folks, could do with a some advice please. was driving my 94 celica 2.0 auto on m25 yesterday. had done about 20miles when suddenly started to get a rumbling through steering at about 75mph. thought i had a puncture so pulled over to check but all seemed ok. when i pulled off again car was fine up to about 50mph but under any load i.e acceleration, above that could feel a juddering. the more power i put on the worse it got. felt like the whole bloody car was shaking apart :( when i eased off it stopped. only seems to be at speeds above 50mph??? the engine seems fine throughout, not missing or anything. thought maybe driveshaft ?? any ideas would be greatly a…

Just had a call from the garage investigating the cause of my serious clutch judder ... Grasshopper Pro Sport who I paid best part of 1000 quid to fit a ACT clutch and Fedanza fly setup that would give me better clutch performance but with almost stock feel, actually fitted a 6 paddle ACT clutch and refitted the knackered stock fly wheel!!! :mad: :mad: When I picked the car up it felt wrong and so I turned round and went back to them, and they said "needs run in for a few miles". The original stock Nissan flywheel is knackered which is part of the problem, plus one of the bolts has sheared and so the "casing" (not seen it yet so not sure which bit) is coming…

Hi please help,my engine 'seems' to keep flooding. it idles very rough then eventually stalls. so i bought some new plugs took it for a drive and it ran fantastic, started it up next day... ...it was crap again. so then i had various split hoses changed, tuned up, and even another set of spark plugs, driving it home from garage it drove fantastic, gets in it next day... ...crap again. ive had various codes on ECU and by cleaning connections seem to have sorted them, the only one that still keeps cropping up is '12'(air flow meter) plus the car wont run above 2500revs "so it is the AFM" i hear you all cry... thing is when the AFM is NOT working car seems to idle fine (…

Hi all, just about to pick up the beast and was curious if I can fit twin BOV's to a TT auto.? If so, is Apexi the one to go for? best price i've seen is £330. are there any others out there? anyone got links/info? This will obviously paired with an apexi filter £130, but was just wondering if it's actually worth fitting them to an auto, and will i get the unmistakeable "pu-chuust" of a nice dump valve???????? Any takers??? BacE :cool:

I was changing my wheels and noticed the rubber gaitor round one of the rear shocks had split. Is it worth replacing or is it more trouble than it's worth and I shouldn't bother? Cheers

hi I own a UK spec 300ZXTT UK spec 1993. Unfortunately, i went through some flood water in the dark and sucked up into engine. SQUASH! One broken engine. Fortunately my car insurance covered the replacing of the engine & turbos. But, only with Nissan parts at Bob Juliers Nissan Dealership. Car has only done about 6,000 miles since. I am looking at increasing the power of my 300ZX. i currently have a Scarab exhaust (Z Centre) Plus a Stillen Air filter (which does not fit very well). I have spoken to a company called Hyper SR (http://www.hypersr.com) They recommended the following mods: HKS front mounted intercooler De-cat pipes Iridium plugs…

does any know where i can buy a wings west front bumper? is there an outlet somewhere who might just have one on the shelf. any help would be much appreciated.

Does anyone know where I can get the HKS 2530 turbo kit, the only places I can find are in the states and I can imagine the import tax on those items will be massive. Cheers Eddie

Im looking at making the pipe work up for a dual intake there are so many variations though :headvswal I have to trust intakes ready to go on just got to figure out what else i need. I have read that people use two MAF sensors why do this? looking at pictures all i need to do is make two 90 degree bends adapt the maf to one then the filter, then weld a tube to the equal lenght as the maf for the other side. This right :confused: thanks

I know that most people go for proprietry exhaust names (like Mongoose :bow: ) but I've heard some good things about Powerflow exhausts. Plus they're guaranteed for the duration you own the car. This will be my first upgrade :hyper: ETU (Estimated Time to Upgrade!) 2 months. So... anyone have any views ??? Mark
