I'm gonna be fitting hid's for my dipped beams.....but what do I do about the front fogs? they are old school yellowy colour...do I need another hid kit or is it just a specific bulb required?

Can someone please remind me of the bulb spec for the dip beam on a Jspec, is it H1bc? And any HID kit recommendations? my ageing eyes and the standard candles mean night driving is terrifying these days!

I have GT525 turbos, if i remove the dump valves completely (dont have a set of recircs) would my turbos be able to handle the extra strain when they stall as the butterfly closes? Second question. My after market boost gauge, is now reading just 10psi on full boost, nothing has changed, no settings have been fiddled with and the car still feels like its boosting at 18psi, yet the gauge is now showing a max of 10 instead on full boost ? There is no det sensor wired up, so cant see how it would be in safety mode, though i will check engine codes just to make sure.

Can I say a big thank you to Ian and Ian jr for helping me find a decent car. They have taken time out of their own lives to help a fellow person on the forum whom they don't know but have the courtesy to help a stranger out. Well if there is such a thing as karma, both these guys deserve bucket loads of health wealth and happiness. Cant thank you both enough, so hopefully this thread will show some appreciation of your friendship and helpfulness. Hope to actually meet you both soon. regards and best wishes Derek. someday I hope I can repay this to you both.

Hi guys as some of you know I bought my first z only in January this year, I loved it so much I've just put a deposit down on a twin turbo one and picking it up next week :) therefor my old one must go, it's a lovely car but I can't afford to keep both. I've advertised her for £2999 on here in the classified but now I've dropped the price big time to just 2k! The links below if anyone's interested please let me know and pass the info on to anyone who you think may want her. The quicker she goes the sooner I can begin tuning my new turbo!!

Does anybody know what the best high temp sealant, (instant gasket) to use on the exhaust cam covers ?

Ok done a good few targa drain tech threads but last week with a poorly zed showing lots of electrical issues and auto gearbox issues it all looked very connected and with the trusty camera on hand all was soon revealed. The auto box was not changing gear at all well, first to second was a huge shift at way too high revs, a previous check on the ConZult revealed a very high reading on the TPS ( throttle position sensor ) that could not be altered what ever adjustment was made to the tps, this would cause the gearbox to be receiving conflicting information, the car horn was also not working from the steering wheel but would intermittent start sounding when the car…
