New thread started as I can't seem to update a post on the General Forum as it now seems to be called "bitching, backstabbing and bad language forum" - ROFL Nicest colour - Jeff's Best interior - the yellow Z by a mile (and a few thousand quid lol) Best wheels - the yellow Z (Andy Ingram's a close second) Best gadgets - tooleys Best looking Z - I liked tooleys, especially the front Worst looking was definitely Warren, by a long way Nicest blacked out lights - the black Z against the wall near Harve's And a special award to the car that left the nice neat line half way through the photo session goes to....err, that'll be me then …

Craig has someone hacked the site? or is it deliberate action by you. Either way, I fell on the floor laughing as I logged on. The funniest thing since I joined this forum! MMMMMMwwwwwwwwwaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh

The front page is just full of rubbish. And I dont blame Craig or who ever did it for changing it. Because it is getting like that. The internet is a very unstable medium to comunicate. Things can be taken the wrong way very easily, but over the past week or so, thing have been getting very bitchy. What the hell is going on? I know there are some people who are here more than others and dominate the converstaion more than others. I dont mind that. People like Timmy Turbo and MAC1 post more than most and most of thier posts are funny comments, sarcasm and other stuff like that. Thats up to them. I read most posts, and if it turns in to playful or not so playful banter or…

With all the infighting a back biting I think we're all in need of some light relief. Come on guyz we're all here 'cause we love the Zed! Tim

Hi guys, Someone tried to steal my car about a month ago and failed, now the logbook and keys have been stolen from my house. Luckily my car is parked at a friends house at the moment, but I don't know what to do! I'm going to put a clamp on it while its waiting there, but what can I do to get back into my car? I haven't got a spare set of keys :-( I assume that all I need to do to get a new logbook is contact the DVLA, but how do I go about getting into the car without the keys? Can I order a replacement set? Some people really suck :-( John

On Takakaira they list a HKS AT Upgrade Kit for the auto Z32(HKS part no: 1601-RN007). http://www.takakaira.com/performance/hks/main.php3?index=drivetrain Does anyone have any specs or info on this kit? Like what power rating it upgrades the auto box to? Works out to be about £1000 without VAT and delivery(or fitting) so it must include clutch packs/bands and stuff I think. Is this the kit companies like S.E. use to upgrade autoboxes? Ta, Trev [This message has been edited by Trey (edited 02-04-2002).]

does any one know what size they are? cheers aki

Hi, I just want to say I enjoyed the meet in the Midlands, I thought Danny did a good job, I thought the company was great and the cars looked a lot better than Mine (wait til the paint job)! Z owners are perfectionists of course and Nissan Main Dealers wouldn't fart for a tenner. The area was nice, the pub was nice and I had seconds (so f**king what, I suffer from low chest syndrome).Maybe some people blew of some steam, but we are all only human, and therefore unlike Z32's (eeerrrhheemmmm) perfect. All the Best, Mark H

Calm down, calm down.

I was under my car today refixing my plastic under covers and took the opportunity to check everything was well but on close inspection to my left turbo i noticed oil round the bottom of it I would have taken this to be a seal on my turbo leaking but after getting light into there i could see there was oil above the turbo near were theres two jubilee clips,The car drives and boosts well and has no smoke at all out the exhausts the only other related thing is when i put the heater on hot it smells abit like burning oil I did think this was my heater matrix which ive just had replaced but the smells still here. Anyway has anyone else had similar problems or any ideas. …

Hy Z Fans, i have a problem with my stage 3 (JWT)ZX TT: During acceleration (0.9 bar)if i get higher than 4500/min my car starts jerking. It feels like missing ignitions and only occours if the engine is warm. The failures are only very short therefore about every second once or twice. what could it be? Does somebody have expiriance with this fault? Could it be related to the power transistor unit? My ECU doesnt show me any Problems (Code 55) Thanks Guys Andy

I have a 90 automatic twin turbo ZX. The problem is that when you put the car into drive and set off, the revs climb quite high. It goes between 3 to 4000 rpm, before it drops into the next gear. The fluid level looks ok, warm and cold and also clean. Could it be the cable needs adjusting? Sometimes it seems as though it cant make its mind up which gear to go in! It also at times "Tugs" as it shifts gear. Also at times its like there's no power..then a minute later everything is fine! Its crazy. Other than that it seems fine. Any ideas? Thanks

Anyone any good with alarms. This has got me beat at the mo. Just got an alarm from off the internet and it has 2 neg. pulses for the locking and unlocking. Realising that there is no motor in the drivers door I have mananged to get one of them and fitted it. Now the problem starts with the central door locking interface which is a microscan an0012 which I have also had to buy, as it only seems to have 1 wire to connect to the alarms armed output. So where the f**k does the disarmed output wire go? Am I missing something? Should have just put it in garage and got someone else to do it!
