I noticed some nasty oil leakery when I removed my splash guards - thought it could be the dreaded turbo oil feeder pipe or something smelly and $$$ Turns out the pipes for power steering had loosened - quick nip up of them with a 10mm wratchet and no probs They seem to work a little loose in the same way as the petrol pipes over time so next time your bonnet is up get that 10mm socket out and tighten em all up folks.

My auto box seems to be playing up recently - when I accelerate it has a bit of lag before the power kicks in. Could it be that the torque convertor is slipping, or that something else is wrong?? Any ideas?? Jay

I was coming down the M1 on Thursday in the middle lane just about to pass a recycling container truck on the insdide lane. Next thing I know some shit flies off the back of the container and hits the front of my car. I pull over, see the damage, then chase after him to pull hum over. I show him the damage and he says sorry, don't worry it will be sorted, so he writes down the name and number of his manager and said just phone him and explain what happened, so I thought no problem I'll do that. I ring the guy and he says he'll have to speak to his driver and assures me I won't be fobbed off. I rang him about 3 times that day and he keeps telling me he can't contact his dr…

Saw a black 300 in preston the other day with split rims and an hks exhaust. Bit rusty mind! just wondered who's it was

No, it's not a reference to the Z headlights. If you want to see your Z in a whole new light use a torch at night to inspect into the deepest recesses of the engine bay and under the car etc. You see stuff you can not see in daylight. I can read the S/no off my turbos. Try doiing that in daylight even with a torch! Hope it helps...

I thought I'd try a 0-60 dash on my Z. Loaded the car to 4k dropped the clutch, rear wheels squeal a bit, revs go up deep into the red zone 7500+, and i'm going nowhere! Clutch slipping like mad. Rip into 2nd , hit redline and clutch still slipping. I'm doing maybe 15mph now. Then the smell of the burning clutch. Oh bu^$er! Then i try the launch control. Set to 3500 revs the engine bogs a bit but clutch grips and I'm away. So my RPS clutch needs a wee bit of attention me thinks! There is no adjustment right?

Anyone know if there is a way to get scratches off a windscreen. After waiting about 2 months to get windscreen from japan got it fitted. Next week after, the fucker froze so i scrapped it with an ice scraper and scratches appeared right in front of vision. Bloody annoying or what! Really show up in this sunlight.
