has anybody got the little black box which fits inside the drivers door for the electric window. not the part where the buttons are but the black box down from the switches is that the relay box? 300zxTT, 1990 jap import.

dont fucking believe it. just finshed working on the Z, packed up for the night, jumped in the supra 24v turbo manual to go home and wrapped the rear end of it into a flyover!!!!!! Then to top it all off my fiancee had a go at me the minute i walked through the door! what a night. Think i sussed the cause of it. its called "BEWARE THE SPARE TYRE" had a flat this morning so i put the spare on but didnt realise that the rotation of the tyre was in the other direction! wow what a loss of traction. never had that before. How pissed off am i!! anyone got a rear bumper for one? going now to nurse my pride cheers Latz [This message has be…

I belive these are the turbos from the Cosworth Sierras/RS200s. I've read that these can produce approx 500Bhp+ on a twin turbo setup. So how come no one uses them? We hear alot about HKS GT25??, Greddy TD0?, JWT and others, but if these can be got from a cossie and built to spec by Turbotechnics or the like how come they are not widely used in the jap performance market? Are they quite large an therefore difficult to fit? Trev

I'm tearing my hair out trying to find the right part number for a serial cable from a Cisco 805 Serial Router to a BT Kilostream box. I know it's a male X.21 interface on the Kilostream end but 3 cables I've been sent have the wrong connector for the Cisco box. It has a mini 26pin female connector on it... Anyone know which cable I need? Need one by wed 9am.

LOOK ------------------ [This message has been edited by MAC 1 (edited 25-02-2002).]

Connected thin wire to middle connector, and with ignition on, checked voltage.... 8.3v. Ok, so loosened bolts and moved tps. When rotating anti-clockwise, the reading jumped to 12v. Moving back, and it jumps back to 8.3v. No in-between! Both tps connectors look clean. Any ideas??? Knackered TPS????

My other half's MX5 has a valve problem on cylinder 2 - diagnosed by low compression and emissions problem on the MoT test. Runs OK and still within tolerance so not a major problem yet. Does anyone have a feel for a reasonable labour time for sorting it ? Cheers Dave

If anyone;s in Farnborough today, avoid the Total garage on the way into town from the Queen's Head Hotl roundabout. Went in today to fill up. Put fifteen quid in (from empty) and petrol starts pouring everywhere (floor, side of car, me) - seems the fuel pump broke and didn't detect the back pressure. Went into the garage, they couldn't tell how much had been spilt so they couldn't refund. Mad?? I was bloody fuming .

C5 OOL, white Twin Turbo (not sure what spec) frequently seen in the Aerospace Business Park - you in this club? Mine is usually parked in the multi-story behind Systems Union house. James.

Not sure if any of you have already seen this, but I signed up a while ago and if it helps, then all to the good. http://www.intel.com/cure/

Oh, say hi to your missis for me......she's really patient. I'm just waiting for the weather to warm up and I'll be out with the tooth brush m8. Can't let Jeff down now can I? You'll be doing the same I'm sure. We should do another Derby meet perhaps next month...hopefully it will be warmish. See you soon, Van
