When out driving in the rain the other day, I noticed that there was a damp patch on the driver door arm rest. I traced the the trickle of water and it seemed to be coming from behind the trim at the top of the seatbelt. The window and roof rubbers all seem to be in good condition and there are no splits or cracks. Any ideas of where the water could be getting in?

Well at last the day arrived for me to collect the RX7 from Southampton. What a shit day to collect it, pissed down the whole time, so all I can say is it feels real quick. The engine in these are so smooth, and the gearbox is real sweet. The car sounds awesome. Car has HKS EVC Boost controller, not touching it assume it sets correctly, and leave well alone. Blitz turbo timer, HKS boost gauge, and shift light controller. The interior is immaculate, and the seats look like new. The 17inch split rims look like new, and the rubber is YOKO's finest all round. The car shuold be ready for registration by the end of the week. If anybody wants to be first on th…

Anyone know a decent bodyshop in Bucks that won't rip me off? I need to get a new front bumper sprayed, but I can't get time off to head up to PPS until the end of November!!

Help, my 300zx won't start. Last night because I've been having overfuelling and cat overheating problems I pulled the connector blocks off the PTU to check for corrosion etc. They were that loose they practically came off in my hand!! I cleaned them and game them a squirt of WD40 and pushed them back on properly and now the bloody car won't start!! Any ideas would be greatly appreciated as I am already late for work. Cheers, Tim.

After a chat with mark (topless) he discovered something pretty darn cool! My number plate on my z is just A233........... but if the 350z is gonna be called the Z33 my plate would match the car very well indeed! Ive seen cars with plates printed with 2's as z's so i could get it printed to read A Z33 Just a thought................... LUKE DUKESTER ------------------

Just read in the Enthusuaist's Companion that the stock alloys are FUNCTIONAL as well as attractive. They are designed to cool exposed brake calipers. Cool. Don't the Japs just think of everything !! Think I'll stick with me stock ones and just get them reconditioned !! Anyone know of a good wheel reconditioner in the Northwest ?

Dave had some fun yesterday look ------------------ KEEP IT SIDEWAYS;).

first zed i have seen since we moved here 5 months ago. was going through the city centre, guy saw me, anyone on here? would be nice to meet some local zed owners as i feel rather out on a limb here steve

Smithy whats the score on those Apexi air induction kits m8, how much longer? week, 2 wks??. Just that my friend who ordered one as well thinks that I've just ran with his money and is giving me stick now. Seems to be taking a long time doesn't it?, what method are they sending it over by air, sea or snail (hehehehe )??. Cheers Tony

Basiclly they have to go buy the weekend or my Mum, who is sick of having them in her garage is going to sell them at a local car-boot sale where i be lucky to get a fiver. They are unused and still boxed MiM 8200 five spoke wheels without tyres. I'm led to believe that they will fit early VW Golf's but don't quote me on that. Come on guys any half decent offer gets em! There must be someone here who is rich enough to own a Zed and a bemmer. Cheers Ian

I mentioned this to a couple of the guys at trax yesterday, basiclly i want to put some jap style grapics down my doors, tuners names and such like, but instead of using normal coloured viynl a want to know if anybody does a glow in the dark, luminous, viynl. i know it will be more expensive but the effect at night should be sensational. Thanks in advance Ian
