funny piss like smell venting out when the air con is on... any idears... is there a filter hidden somewhere ?

Okay just found out why my car clunks when stopping..my wishbone is split where the two connecting bolts go where the tension rod bar attaches. Okay. Suggestion..can I make a plate and drill two holes for the tension rod bolts to pass through and tack weld the plate to the wishbone or better to just replace the damn wishbone. Say this cos the car is in the garage tomorrow for roll bar bushes and steering rack bushes. Thanks St Leicester

This would be even funnier if it wasn't true ------------------

Hi After a passenger side lower wishbone..it's where the main tension road connects as mines split where the two bolts go through..hence some nasty tugging and clunking/click noises. How much anyone, where and how soon? Thanks

This thing:? Its spooking me out ------------------ ->Glen

I need to replace my rear spoiler and was thinking carbon fiber would look really nice. Does anyone know where I should look. I know Avalon and Stillen do rear spoilers with CF inserts but I want one that is the same as factory except made out of or looking like carbon fiber. Thanks for any tips

I know what it is mate,It's birds that have been sucked into your intake,Just open your bonnet and scatter a loaf of bread in,that will shut them up they are starving mate they are just telling you to feed them,while you are at it throw a little corn in the boot for your chickens,and check under the back seat for eggs LMFAO . ------------------

Hi Guys/Gals Okay..still got clicking noise and creaking from Front passenger side brakes..now I have a tugging and clunking from same side. Any suggestions as to what it is would be greatly appreciated... thanks all.

My 200SX is faster than an MR-2 and it weighs more ! The optimum engine size depends on the weight of the car and the performance criteria - it's all down to physics. The 300ZX is not a rally car, hence it has a 3-litre TT engine for high top speed and lots of power. A 2-litre engine is usually better for racing (eg. Subaru Impreza) because the car is lighter and won't go at excessive speeds. A bigger engine provides less proportional power to increased mass, but the optimum engine size depends on the car's overall mass and what the performance criteria are. Engine size is a limiting factor, but engine design also plays a big part.

-despite recent problems,which were not seriouse ive just took my car for a spin and fooooooooooooook its quick! had my boost banging on a bar and my boost gauge was happy to read 16+psi,ooopss think my boost controller is set too high?mind you i no you are all gonna say ,jay ya nuts ,ya gonna need another engine? so im turning it down asap! must say tho it did run sweet! jay

After a little drive today I noticed green water, which I think is coolant, dripping from the front of the passenger side. It looks like its coming from behind the intercooler. The radiator water level is fine, but I will keep my eye on it. Any ideas what it could be? Had the coolant bottle broke or could it just be a split pipe? Any help please. Thanks. Stuart

Not really Z related, but can anyone help with Insurers who do more than 3rd Party on Q Plates, or is this impossible ??? Thanks, Phil.

Hello Andy. I bought a few bits from you a while ago and was hoping you could help me again. I need a Nearside front upper wishbone, my car failed the MOT because the bush on this was worn to excess I wouldn't normally put something like this on second hand but I need a Quick fix temporarily. If you can help me drop me an email or reply here. Cheers Lee

call me

I'm no engine/car expert, but surely a 3-litre twin turbo has more potential power than a 2.6 ? litre twin turbo. Is it that the skyline has a less cramped engine bay ? Why aren't there 1000+ BHP ZX's ?

Mac - are the vents in the side of your front spoiler standard with it or did you add them afterwards? Are they for drawing are through the intercoolers or just for looks? Who from and how much?
