My starter motor housing snapped about a month ago, so I phoned Intapart for a price on one, £60+carriage+vat. I managed to glue mine back together until it came apart again today. I phoned Intapart to order the startmer motor and the lady tells me £100+everything, so I told her I was quoted £60+. She askes me to hold on and the manager gets on the phone and tells me the price is now £100. I told him the guys name and tel. ext. who quoted me the original price and the manager tells me it's my word against his and I'm making it up that I phone before. I know some people have had good service from these people, but I just think the manager has a shit attitude!! Vi…

So whats next

I can't find anyone that still supplies the AB Flug Bumper & Headlight kit that I have (or did have until it got smashed). I'm sure I originally saw it on Takakaira.com under AB Flug but its not there anymore! There is one that looks like it but it doesn't have the thinner "Porshe" side lights so its not the one. It was originally on the site for about £1550 (complete kit). It may have been discontinued. I need to find it fast guys before the insurance co replace it with a stock one. Warren, you know every Z contact on this planet? Help Andy

Hi All, I contacted Veilside concerning a 300. Kind of glad i didn't judging by some of the postings on here.. I have one question though. I heard that Veilside in Japan and the States is a very good Tuning Company with a good reputation. I take it they are in no way linked with the company in the UK? And if this is the case are these people allowed to trade under this name? Just a thought..

When I brake hard I get steering vibration, which gets worse the harder I brake, so I’m thinking the front disks are becoming warped. I’m going to use this opportunity to upgrade the disks; can anyone recommend a suitable replacement for use with the original calipers? CheerZ Herman

My '91ZX has gradually suffered from a reduction in the number of miles I get from the rear tyres, until now its down to only a few thousand miles. Has anyone suffered anything similar, I have tried different makes of tyres but found only a negligible difference, with last set being Pirellis only giving me 2000 miles. Ash My driving is mainly motorway and in rush hour traffic, so isn't anything too ridiculous !!

Something on the interior trim of my Zed has been rattling like a b@st@rd recently and driving me absolutely insane and this weekend I finally fixed the little sucker - hurrah ! There were two problems, firstly the upper rear seat belt mountings have a metal plate through which the webbing runs, this was vibrating and causing one of the rattles. I removed the bolt and put a thin rubber o-ring in just to take up the slack. Secondly, in the boot, the cover for access to the rear lights had become loose over the years and so I used an inch or two of that 5mm thick sticky draught insulating stuff (that normally goes around window frames), once again to take up the slack…

Its my B-Day 2morrow, u lot gonna chip in and buy me my 19" rims i've been after for sooooo long!. I have worked out at an average number of 200 members on this forum (probably wrong!) which mean all u have to contribute is a mere 15 squids each!................lol, jus kiddin.

I have a set. Theyre a lightweight ally, 17" 9 or 9.5j on the back and 8.5j fronts. Spoke with Johnny from gps about them and he told me that theyre £800 each new. They have decent rubber on too. They are a 3 piece split rim with 5 spokes painted black and polished dish. The backs have a deeper dish then the fronts. They got studs running round the edge of the rim and aslo round the centre caps. Will post some pics up soon. At 1500 ono squids, theyre a fraction of the price of what they wud cost new.

Dear All Thank you for your prompt responses to my last message. It is nice to be talking to people who share the same interest and know what they are talking about through experience. Z32s Are pretty sparce in Swindon. My next question is how reliable are stock UK Z32 TTs from when they were first produced to cease of UK production? Are there any major things to look for in each year of production? Regards MJ

If I had a spare £4500 i would get a set Paul.

Hi all, Having been to the AutoSport exhibition at the NEC last Friday I saw a fair amount of aftermarket mirrors with integrated indicators (a la Merc). Most of them were M3 stylee jobbies but I did see a couple of other types as well. Unfortunately none look like they will be a simple replacement for our standard Z mirrors. This reminded me that quite a few months ago I saw a pic on this forum of a Zed (in Japan)with standard mirrors but with integrated indicators Does anyone else remember seeing that pic and if so can you point me in the right direction as to where to find the real thing. I'm not interested in non-standard mirrors (like the M3 type). Thanks…

Just a play with a spare dash any thoughts? liven`s up the place a little I thought without too over the top..colour is actually pearl cherry red (same as my zed) looks better in the flesh as such. Jeff TT
