Si, you were curious as to what the wheel would look like once fitted. I got round to finishing it today. I covered the normally silver bits in faux leather that Si from Hide n seat kindly donated to me.

Hi all, I've had this sitting in my garage for the last few years and before I do anything with it, I would like to know what type/make/copy blah it is? It came off my Jap 89 TT import which was shipped over here in 2001. Really like the style but not too sure if i want to fit it to my other car. Any help appreciated.

Has anyone put a mishimoto radiator into their zed? if so how did you get the radiator in? its a tight squeeze to get it past the turbo pipes!

I have just offered my 99 spec bumper up to my car would seem not to fit do I need to remove or buy a new bumper support the big black plastic bit were the spot lights are ?

Yes....sorry, another cat question. So, I'll be putting an exhaust on my car soon, and I know the MOT rules changed recently (Jan I think). My engine (NA), is from a 92 car, in a 90 shell. Both are imports. I read somewhere, that even if you don't need a cat, one has to be present at the mot!? I found this - Car that needs cats - - 1992 for normal UK cars; - 1992 for imported cars that were officially available in the UK; and - 1995 for imported cars that were never officially available in the UK However, I also found a flow chart that stated that if the car wasn't on the database (and I believe import Zeds arent?) then they are…

ok am just moving the battery to the boot at the mo what amp cable do I need will this do it http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/390319344786?_trksid=p2055119.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Well, when i first got the car, the pot was empty, so i topped it up, give it a bleed and all was rosy and dandy, with how my car has been recently, i removed the cap to the clutch slave and low and behold, completely bone dry again, now i know i have never had a leak that has shown its self under the car / engine, there doesnt seem to be anything else out of place on the system, and having a read a thread on the aussy forum (that never got solved) i seem to be having the same issue, although, unlike them where they lose complete use of the clutch, i can still use mine, just the pot is empty and its rather well solid to use. So, quick one this, where the hell has it…

Hi does anyone know if the oil pump can be fitted without taking the engine out? Can it be changed by removing the sump leaving the engine in position? Thanks Dan

Hi, I'm looking to give my car a good service and was just wondering what oil and coolant recommendations people have for my twin turbo z? Thanks.

How do I check the injectors are 100%

I recently needed a bonnet, as some of you may have seen. Brian answered the request and last night I popped up to his luxury man cave to retrieve it. What a top bloke! Real credit to club spirt, even sorted me out with some fruit pastels and some other bits. Proper gent. Good karma is due to him I must say. So yes, thanks mate!

Where is the best place to get the above as Ive spotted them on the bay but they need modified to suit, so going to give them a miss. Want nice ones but not at rip off prices to match the clear lenses I got for the rears. Cheers

Does anybody know if the plug/connector on the cruise control ECU changed from series 1 to series 2 or auto to manual? I have a couple of ECU's here that the plug from my JDM 93 man TT won't marry up to. One is from a JDM series 1 auto TT and the other from an unknown UK spec, both of which have the same socket but my plug is slightly too big for them. Joel.

Hi all, My friend has bought a 300zx JDM 3.0 N/A manual, and in less than a week the car struggles to start and seems to make a nasty sound from under the belt covers (i think on exhaust cam sides) Seen a video online where the belt was shaking and jumping causing it to do so... could that be the reason?? What can be done? what could it be? how much would it cost? and who would you recommend in southampton? Any advice would be more than appreciated!

Hi guys seems that number 1 injector isnt working,does anyone know where i can buy a injector?TT model
