What size speakers can I fit in the door inplace of the original speakers Stuart

Ok, I was thinking, I'm currently looking to upgrade my 200sx (my 2nd s13) to a 300 ASAP, and I was wondering how many people have also followed this route ? Herman

Could anyone tell me how much (approx) I could expect to pay for a Good UK 300TT Man or Auto ? There seems to be plenty around but no consistency in pricing, for instance, I looked at an Imported 300 NA MAN with no history, at the weekend but the bloke wanted 6K for it! Any ideas would be appreciated. Herman

I'm in the (long) process off pulling my engine out to do the head gaskets/turbo's. I removed the exhaust system yesterday, the right hand side came off fine. But I can't get the bolt for the cat temp probe on the left hand side out of the cat. I could keep it plugged in while doing all the other work on the car but it'd be a pita. As i'm going to drill in an exhaust temp dial, do you guys reckon it'd be ok just to cut the hose and cap it off? Oh the nut is practically destroyed now. any ideas? cheers.

I have put up a post on the Empeg forum for how I managed to fit my Empeg into my Z. It's not the most straightforward thing in the world so I hope some people may find it of use. If you do not have a second head unit, you may want to ask Craig how he fitted his as he has a much simpler way of doing it if the Empeg is your only headunit.

Hi can anyone tell me what the parts numbers are for the center bearing kit and the rear gearbox bush mount. Emailed Courtesy but they require more info on the gearbox mount, I've been advised to replace both to remove the vibrationsssssssss!! cheers anyone

Was it you? I was in my Z but was parked in lots of space by Roseby's, saw you drive in and you parked opposite Powerhouse. Just curious..... Matty. ------------------

GuyZ I need to get my bodywork sorted on the old TT. Looking is age a bit now (1990). What should I expect to pay for a respray and spoiler fitting. I have some quotes but they seem rediculas. What have some of you guyZ paid. Would also quite like a big spoiler. Is the Z Center the only place for your car to be seen? I know they do an excellent job but I live in Woking Surrey. CheerZ for any help. Tim

My drivers window rattles when it's down about 1/3 way. Is there anything that can be adjusted, I'm gonna look tomorrow but just wondered if anyone else has had this problem. Vijya

underneath the dash on the passanger side, sort of behind the glove box is a round unit of about 6 inches and I think it goes through the firewall. It has a connector with 2 wires coming out of it. On the opposite side to the connector it has a small ribbed plastic tube coming out of it, but the other end is not connected to anything. Is this right? Cheers Vijay

And another day bites the dust working on the Z... Changed the spark plugs - jeez thats a job and a half isn't it! Trying to prise the balance tube out of the way.. Not to mention finding that every single one of the clips on the coil pack plugs is broken Fixed my stock boost gauge (tap the needle and it came back to life).. From opening the door, to having put it all back together again in 23 mins flat.. Not bad eh? Still have that elusive leak from the driver side.. it's dripping off the AIV flexible hose - looks like coolant, but *could* be PS fluid (anyone ever known PS fluid to be green? light green, almost clear).. Hard to tell, it feels oily, but…

Has anyone else got a noisy fan in the overhead T bar section which pulls air over the air con sensor. It really bugging me, I took it out and cleaned it and oiled the bearing but it still wirls away as soon as the ignition is on, not major loud just enough...sound like the window is open a little, any thoughts on if it would effect the temp / climate control if I disconnected it??? Jeff TT

Do you guys have any parts available in the UK that aren't available in the US? If so, shoot me an email and we can do business ------------------ Later, Phuong - EatRiceZone.com

Hiya all, can anyone tell me what the elec. fan does in front of the smaller rad cause this weekend it's come on all the time. I've not heard it before. Popped the bonnet up & wiggled the yellow connector on the water outlet pipe to the rad and it stops & starts, obviously dodgy connector, but I was wondering whether it should be on all the time or whether I got an overheating problem or not. Please, anybody with any ideas cheers.

How easy is it to remove the standard cloth seat trim for cleaning? Is it possible? If so, can I just bung them in the washer with a bucket of Bold? Ta. Jonny Clark - Belfast

Just bought a single disc Panasonic head unit but need somebody to fit it. At the moment the standard radio cassette and single disc cd player is still in the car so i need this removed and the necessary rewiring done. Any suggestions or help appreciated, P.S i live in slough so anywhere close would be good.
