What sort of d/l speeds are you getting (in Kbytes/sec) & for what cost? Reason I ask is that I've been on NTL broadband for around 8months & had always assumed that I was on their slowest service which is 64k/s because I was getting d/l speeds of around 64-80 Kbytes/sec. Have now found out that I was actually on their 600k/s services because they quote the speeds in kilobits rather than kilobytes & they had actually failed to charge me for the service. I am now back on the 64k/s service which is not much faster than dial-up & TBH it's sh|t. I need a faster connection quicksmart so do I start paying the £25 a month for the 600k/s service …

1990 TT 300zx Basically noticed a strong smell of what seemed like oil when I stopped car after about 40 minute drive. There was also a boiling noise coming from engine somewhere but I couldn't locate where it was coming from, so not sure if it was water or oil. That night on the way home I noticed that the oil pressure gauge went through: start car, goes up to 5 or so (5/8th), then settles down a bit and increases with engine revs as you'd expect, but settled lower and lower. After about 10 minutes driving it's not moving, just sitting at around 2/8th irrespective of revs. It does this everytime I start it, so I'm not using it at the moment... I …

Anyone know where I can get set of ducts to fit on uprated intercoolers. Tried SE-Nissan but they only do a kit.

Chaps. What bushes should i be looking to replace. I heard i may need to.

How much to rebuild a gearbox then?

Has anyone got a pass to download the ROM Editor from http://WWW.925STYLE.COM that I can borrow? I've filled out the form a few times now, and even tried emailing them, with no success. Oh, for anyone that's interested, as of last night I'm running a manual veilside ECU on my engine. As the car was once an auto i'll keep an eye on things and post accordingly, initially everything seems fine! cheers, Ben.

Check this out http://www.mkivsupra.net/bbs/ Search for:- Registered Nutter Spec A good friend of mine that has far two much money!!!!!

Has anyone ever raced one? I know I never have, they never want to play. They just seem to be one of those cars that just arn't driven fast. Mike

I will be there!!!!! Could I suggest we park in the car park nearest the road? It's like a big overflow area. This way it's far enough away from the pub to not annoy the regulars and also allows us to congregate in one area. I hopefully should have an MR2 turbo, pos a WRX and a pulsar in tow. I was hoping my friend with a 1200 bhp supra would be there but alas it is a whole load of mapping away from being up and running. Anyway he should be there in his modded pulsar. Ah also I would be glad of a ride in a modded or stock 300 in order to give me a comparison to my stock, freshly imported 300. Just to make sure im running the power I should be and noth…

Anybody out there got a Nearside Rear shock absorber for sale. Mines decided to explode so looking quite urgent......

Anyone got contact details for someone that would make up non standard (illegal plates). I just need the letters altered slighty!!!

Mine is a jap import and came with 4 225 tyres on 8 half inch rims. Anyone else got the same or have all you chaps got 245's on the rear???

Chaps, what do we think. I want a cheapy power upgrade. If not a bleed valve, perhaps some other cheap way. Just to tie me over till i make my first mill!!!!! And any ideas on what power I would gain?

Not sure if this counts but i whipped two chaps in their Astra GSI's last night when they finally made it to the next set of lights i was grimaced at by a big black man in one of the astras!... oops! Ten mins later i had had a much better challenge made by a very friendly chap in a p plate 200sx, and when we pulled up at the lights down the road he told me that my car was "too rich for him" bet he didn't realise that he his car will have cost him twice what mine did! P.S This was at around Midnight on quiet roads, so no children etc were endangered by the way.

Howdy folks, anyone out there know where there is an online copy of the Z32 manual? I'm sure there used to be one on this site somewhere. Specifically, I'm trying to get information on the throttle position sensor; what it looks like, where under the bonnet to find it, how to check to see whether it's faulty, how to replace etc. I've still got some peculiar probs and am slowly working my way through all the ideas you guys suggested. Although, the problem I had with the tickover alternating between one day being constant at 2000rpm, and then the next being normal but the revs fluctuating/dipping whilst cruising at any speed has, for the moment at least, disappeared, just l…

Dont suffer the same fate as this poor chap for the sake of £40... http://www.scoobynet.co.uk/bbs/thread.asp?threadid=145546

Mmm anyone actually done turbo`s removal without removing the engine?? need some definative answer as removing the engine although a straight forward job kinda like open`s a can worms with brittle loom issue`s etc after refitting.:confused: Anyone got thought`s on it ??? cheers Jeff TT

Hi guys, need some help in assisting a fellow zedder who has fallen victim of a main dealer continually changing part in the vague hope of curing what sounds like a single lifter noise problem Right 1994 UK manual chap bought it with what was described as one sticky lifter that was occassionally noisy. After all manner of oil changes and flushes done at his local Nissan dealer the problem pesisted, so on their advise all 48 lifters were changed at a cost of £2200 !!!!:eek: Guess what when he picked it up?..........yep it was still ticking!! 9 months and a whole lot of legal threats and papers have done nothing (Nissan have some big unbeatable legal d…

I just bought one and need some help with it, does anyone know?. Cheers, Kash

Yeah, alright... stop looking at me like that! So I was watching some afternoon kiddies TV in bed yesterday - it'd been a long night. There's some tasty female presenter waffling on about something or other - I didn't have the sound on to start, cos hey, ya know - I didn't need it. Then she starts demonstrating a pair of inflatable speakers and I'm all: no way! But it seems to me this could be a pretty neat idea. I'm missing some heavy gut-shaking bass in my motor, but I'm not about to start adding tonnes of extra weight just to get it. If anything, I wanna chuck out weight. And besides, I still need enough space to jam in a couple of snowboards. So... an i…

Hi me again. Someone responded to a request I made earlier last week about the drivers door electric window switch panel/assembly. I read your email, but (bless him)...my little boy managed to completely knacker my computer the other night and I lost your email. Could you please resond to this again. Many Thanks. Chris. PS: You quoted a price of £15 whole English Pounds...thats all I can remember of the email...lol

Hi All, I was wondering if anyone could help me out on this one. I read an article in Jap Cars magazine and it states you can adjust the stiffness of the dampers using the handbrake!...Is this correct?...If so how do you do it.? Many thanks. Chris
