Having spent half an evening with Matty lad and hearing his recent account of selling his car, we went for a drive in the rain (nothing new there then)soooo.. 1# Start car,imediately settles to nice bubbly tickover. 2# Select reverse and the auto box responds smoothly. 3# A full turn on the steering wheel and the power assist quietly manouvers the wheels around. 4# Select drive and power away,with smooth changes between gears. 5# Sitting comfortable, clad in leather seats I viewed the smart stereo. 6#Having completed our journey Matty skillfully parralell parked (Still had to catch bus to the kerb lol) 7# 3.0 V6 continued to tick over smoothly and the…

"VAN, you have to keep me posted about the Firebond classic insurance on the 91 UK TT. I have one." Stuart, Got my quote from Firebond today.....£1,450..arse. Bloody rip-off- hangon, I'm paying £1700 (Tesco) at the mo, d'oh. I'm changing to CIS, £1200. You have to bear in mind the following in my case; 1. No NCB ( had a slight crash with a cavelier in front whilst in traffic, in my Sunny at the time, phew...but then I didn't own a Z then so ...) 2. Car not garaged but kept on private drive. 3. I'm a youthful 31yr old ( unlike you old codgers ;-) 4. I'm Single (more prone to keeping eyes on ladies than road I guess and so more risks) Bes…

I know a few of you guys have gone down this road and sorted things out and I want to do the same before the bad winter and having to slam my brakes on yesterday on the M25. 1. is it possible to tell if your disks are warped just by looking at them or line up a staight surface against the surface of the disk? 2. what and where are the bushes that wear out. Can you easily tell if they are worn and how difficult are they to change? Thanks Vijay

Hmmmmmm!!! Some will laugh, some won't! But don't shoot the messenger we were livin' in a democracy last time I checked!!!

johnny have you got the offsets for the blitz wheels yet???

Hey guys, I'm considering getting an ALC fitted to my import TT but would like to know how any of you have experienced the difference in shift-performance. Also, is £240 too much for a new one? I thought I saw one advertised on here (many moons ago) for about £90?! Let me know pleaZe. Cheers, Danny

Hi guys, Fitted the new dampers-ok-, but where on earth do you possition the electric motors ??? Motors work fine in turning the 90 degrees required, and fit on the bracketry fine but you can adjust the damper shaft & motor shaft. Im conserned in case 1's going stiff as the other going soft. (doors open there, but how else can I explain it) UK car all std (new) bits. cheers harve

I'm going that way in a couple of weeks and wondered who is up that way, maybe for a beer? [This message has been edited by Jez (edited 26-09-2001).]

What are the dimensions of a brake pad, and disc combined into one large rubberised condom?

My laptop has NT loaded. It s a bunch of cr*p. I want to reload windows 98. I do not have administrator rights for NT (at least I can't remember the password). How do I do it?

Anyone got front disc's for my 90TT, the one's on it are warped. C

Been looking around for a tech doc on removing the upper & lower inlet plenums (ok manifolds.. whatever!) and I can't seem to find one.. Don't suppose anyone has a link do they? Cheers! Az ------------------ Yes.. I know my back wheels *were* on backwards.. They're not now, 'k? ;)

My head light bulb went last night and the Nissan garage couldn't help due to my car being an import. I was going to order 1 but I really needed to use the car so we went to Halfords. Purchased bulb 453 (has the spade terminal on a wire) and soldered another terminal to it. It took about 3 mins to do and cost around £4 and it works fine. Just thought I would mention it as I looked on some previous topics on this and it seemed that some poeple had problems doing it.

My friendly police constable wrote to me this morning wanting to know my details for an intended prosecution of EXCESS SPEED (well fancy that?) in a variable 60mph zone on the M25 at 22.34 near colnbrook. My beef is that the M25 was freeflowing with only light traffic (it's 10.30 at night) . absolutely no reason for any speed restriction to be in place. After previous similar nights, same time, same place, same restriction, same absence of traffic, I ignored it. Can I require the police to provide just cause why the restriction was in place. Or prove that the system was not a) faulty b) being tested c) left on to catch motorists and make even more money for the …

Hello, I'm tying to find a heater core for a 300ZX year 85 to 89. I found this one in the states: http://www.heatercore4u.com/2-558.htm but I would prefere to locate on closer to London. BTW, I don't own any 300ZX I just need that heater core for a watercooled computer.

You have mail. Jeff TT
