.........My old leather will be for sale soon!! What will I expect to get for my leather once removed from the seats?? (It's black and 2+2) It's in good condition apart from the usual drivers side bolster, it's scuffed and the hole is about that of a 5p, but I have some spare leather to get that repaired so it will be like new (2nd hand new ;) ) So, what would i expect to get for leather with bolster damage (drivers side only) and supply of leather to get it repaired by whoever buys it ? And then how much if I got that repaired and sold it?? Cheers, Matty.

Hi all, I’ve been reading the threads about PCV as looked like it might be my problem but they all seem to be mentioning smoke as one of the main symptoms. My Z starts ok, but then the trouble starts. The engine seems to really struggle to idle, hesitate/splutters a lot although it doesn’t stall. If you try to in crease the revs quickly it will stall, although by blipping the throttle slightly you can gradually build the revs up. But moving the car anywhere is practically impossible… Previously I had trouble with starting when warm, but seems to have developed into this now. Any ideas ?? Ash

help .......fitted the indiglo dial kit from Vijay , everything works ok light wise but now the speedo has stopped and the hicas light is on and the steering is really heavy .........any ideas people ?? :cry: :cry: :(

How do you change the washer jets? Can the old ones just bve pulled out or are there any clips. Not near my car just now, so cant have a look. Cheers

Has anybody fitted one of these, if so can they recommend a size or Brand. Im looking at binning the stereo and box underneath and fitting a LCD screen. I may wire this up to either a laptop/computer in the boot or an xbox. This way I can have a 120GB MP3 Collection / SATNAV / Videos etc. I know you can get expensive popout screens etc but Im wondering about some of the LCDs on ebay.

Got new jap spec headlight bulbs from www.elta.co.uk. I got the site address from another post here. They had 55w and 85w H3c bulbs. I got 55w as a direct replacement for mine to see if they work. I hope I have got the right things. They seemed fairly good value at £13 for two delivered and they came really quick. Better than pissing about with a soldering iron.

I've done a search to see how these have been installed but can't find any instructions as such. Has anyone got a link to instructions on how to fit the fan so it comes on via temp sensor.

Can someone please post the link to "How someone fitted PVC hose kit" can't find for the life of me. Cheers Rossy

This is a simple method,which is quite obvious in some ways,and probably been covered a hundred times, but will post it up anyways .. ;) My leather was well cracked,and with the cracks being white they stood out like a sore thumb.. I bought a SMALL tin of dark blue dye ( or whatever colour your leather is ) called dyol which was a quid ! ;) , diluted a very small amount of the powder with water,stuck a poly-bag on my hand and clothed the entire interior with the dye,it sits on the leather,but dyes all the cracks the same colour. left it for 10 mins,wiped all the seats with a clean damp cloth,then nourished it with auto-glym cream leather polish. th…

Hi there people, I haven't had time to search around yet as i'm at work. Is this site for Z31's aswell as Z32's? If not can someone point me in the right direction. Dont get me wrong... I LOVE Z32's and will have one in the next year or two but cant afford one over here because i'm only 19/20. So the insurance companies wont touch me (it was hard enough getting insurance on my 200SX). In OZ you dont need insurance... and i'm going back at the end of the year. Anyway back to my question. I want to know if the Z31's ever came out with the digi dash over here. I owned one in OZ with a digi dash. I have a Nissan Sunny ZX coupe... in Japan they had the digi das…

Will i be able to see them by getting under the car?

If anyone's interested, I know where there's a twin Greddy T67-25G kit for sale with manifolds and wastegates! Supposed to be good for 1200RWHP :shock: Maybe just a little OTT!

I have a Momo race steering wheel, it's got no air bags so that is fine, but where can i find a boss kit for the Z oh its a 1990, thanks
