Hi everyone still here and while I've been free I've managed to sort a few things out on my z. Currently have completely removed both sides down pipes and cats today. Relatively quiet easy apart from the tight space and only snapped two pins. Questions is do I need to replace the sensors on both sides or am I ok with blanking them. Also the sensors that were in the cats there's no place for them so can I cut the wire or can I completely remove the sensor including wiring. Will there be any warning lights I'll need to address after. Another thing when removing the passenger side down pipes I removed the battery to gain access from the top and disconnected a pipe to make w…

as above . if anyone has one please . thanks andy

I'm wanting to buy a consult kit for my zed, which kit is best do you guys think? Price is not an issue, I want functionality to be able to view/change parameters etc. any advice appreciated.

Hi. I know Nismo and Tomei are the best injectors in the market. However these are very expensive. Is it worth to look for cheaper ones like Deatchwerks, Aus or Jecs? Or should I stay away from these? Thanks

I understand there is no definitive answer to this question, and it all depends on engine condition, fuel, maintenance etc. My car has the mushroom air filters, a mines ecu, a FMIC and a decat exhaust, everything else is stock including injectors and turbos. The car has a boost controller on already and is currently boosting at 10psi. Is there any room to increase this? Obviously I know the higher the boost the higher the risk to everything but was wondering if anyone here with a similar setup could say they have safely ran X amount of boost for the last X amount of time without issue.. Thanks, Dan

looking at gt252 tubs 63.ar 360 thrust bearings ect and t25 flange so i can bolt straght on with 2.5 inch devorced exhaust pipes. apart from z1 anywere else i can find out info or purchase in this country. so far 1.695 dollar for pair without the downpipes. were else do trade on here please

Sorry to anyone bidding on it but i thought this was awesome and i wasn't going to miss out on it - definitely going on the desk at work :D I realise Danny at DTA used to sell them probably cheaper as well but i haven't seen anywhere else sell them since :)

Would like a copy if any local papers took pics at coventry, something to keep.

Assorted pictures from a typical British summer's day in Coventry - wet, then boiling hot and humid followed by what must have been the heaviest rain I have ever driven in! Big thanks to all the organisers, helpers and everyone who attended and made it such a great day.

Was there a certain spec that came with out a badge on the nose?

UPDATED PCS BELOW Just one pic i managed to get while waiting for the ferry on sat after my manic day

I was just wondering what people thought about what front light look best for my black zed. So, generally I was thinking of either spraying the insides chrome/silver, or maybe black. What's do you's think?

Where is the best/cheapest place to buy the outside trims?

Hi all,just want to say first off cracking day at Coventry despite weather and it was great to meet the SE/SC/SW guys and get to my first z meet for years. Now i need some serious advice.On the way home i thought id poodle along and stuck the car into cruise control,all was ok for about 20 miles,it then made a loud crunching sound.I turned cruise control off and the crunching went and was driving normally again,after a few more miles i noticed the car was accelarating but not changing gears at all..it would rev,accelerate but not change gears. I decided to pull off the motorway to investigate and stopped at end of junction.As i pulled away the gears sounded really gr…

What/where do you get new engine bay bolts from, and do you replace them with. Only ones I could find where 24k gold hex bolts

So after all this rediculously humid weather, I wanted my air con regased as I've been sweating my b0ll0x off. Took it in today and I had a feeling they wouldn't be able to do it but thought, worth a try. They told me it was running ILLEGAL c12 gas and so I weouild have to go to a specialist to have the whole system replaced!? What is the true story and where can I get it regassed (in essex/suffork) as I can't live without my air con!

Hi all, I've forgotten which way round the coilovers should face on the front. Does the longer end of the bush face the leg or the nut facing towards the front of the car? The coilover looks really close the the suspension leg if the longer end faces the nut but want to make sure. Thanks Dan

Can anyone tell me the overhang on the stock spoiler, not sure the one I've got is a copy of stock. Looks bigger to me?

...who attended Coventry. Hi folks. I just want to day a huge thanks to all who attended Coventry yesterday. It was truly epic seeing so many Z32s in one place. Shows and meets are only successful because you, the members, make them so. So again, I thank you. My thanks to Ian Greenfield, Harby, and JaiKai who went above and beyond throughout the day with helping me to make sure all was going to plan. Even the weather sorted itself out for us.....Until 4 pm anyway! I tried to get around to see everyone. My apologies if I didn't get to speak to you. And for those who didn't get a goodie bag, please PM me and I'll see what can be done. And …

I guess ya all know who ya are and it was a succesful day me thinks cosidering the weather :clap:

Got off to a bad start at 5am, maf dead, was working fine last night, so changed it over quickly and although better, a bit lumpy but the engine was knocking a little at the top end. Checked the oil and topped up half a litre. Waited for the 6am ferry only to be told it was cancelled and the next one was 7am due to the mezzanine deck on another ferry collapsing last night, hence delays and backlog. Got off the ferry, stopped for fuel and started my journey, as i got up the M3 the knocking was getting worse and the power was very poor, so i pulled in at tesco service station at the bottom of the A34, where the car died and wouldnt start. Had to wait for RAC to come and d…

Myself and Slick Pete were chatting today about how we got over 50 Zs back at the Ferrybridge meet in 2006, and how we got over 40 cars today at Coventry - how many of you were at BOTH because we could only think of four or five owners ourselves included...

Just to say thanks to all those who made coventry happen today, my first proper meet and I loved it. Well done guys a great day out! :thumbup:
