Sorry to keep harping on, but I read this Interesting Artice! It's annoying when you think about the amount of money being pumped into keeping us all at the speed limits but it doesn't seem to be making much difference to me. Tim :-(

Just got back from a week away. Did anyone else spot the 2 seater Z in a film called "The Secret Life of Us" on Channel 4 on the 11th July? Didn't watch it all but I think it was one of the stars who was in it with a girl. Showed interior and exterior shots. First one i've ever seen on TV.

Hi Guys, I just recently bought myself a lovely '90 TT (silver, auto, jap-import) and have been flying high ever since. Had been looking around the US based BB's etc until ViJay introduced me to you lovely bunch of people. I'm based in Birmingham but work in London on a regular basis so I get to do a lot of cruising up and down the M40. I absolutely adore this car - always wanted to have one ever since it came out! I do have some questions that I would appreciate some honest answers to: 1. I am not best pleased with the brightness (or rather the lack there of) of the headlights. I have been looking around for replacement bulbs and came across some 30% brighter ones…

Ask local nissan for a price for new front discs....Is it an import? we need chasis number,type,model,inside leg measurements... Surely UK and Jap discs are the same... If I fit myself how long and how difficult. Hope to see all at JAE on saturday...driving up from Farnborough M3... Steve in the black Z with roof off(weather permitting).

Now that I've corrected the duff TPS, I made the stupid mistake of being smug and believing my car would now run peachy forever. WRONG!!! Driving home last night when I developed a misfire as I was coming up my road. Turned out that the whole of the driver's side bank of the V6 was dead. You could pull the coil inputs on every cylinder and it made no difference. Checked the sparks by pulling the coils out and holding them near an earth. Checked out OK. Listened to the injectors with a metal bar. All 6 sounded the same. Wiggled every wire in sight with no effect. The fuel rails are mutually dependent so I ruled out fuel starvation. The throttle was…

Just thought I'd let you all know I'm back and I had a superb time in Gran Canaria!! Miss me? Nah, Didn't think so.......(sulk) Matty

Hi Chaps Did Nissan UK recall the Z32 89-93 to correct the faulty PTU's Just wondered as over in Aus they are going mad at Nissan Australia and need amunition from other worldwide Nissan recalls. Ta Glen.

Just travelled back from de Wales(aaaaiiiii...check it!) and as you come out of the roadworks where they are replacing the ARMCO(stuff you bounce off when you fall asleep to stop you crossing the carriageway and killing innocent people on the other side of the motorway! LOL!) there is an overhead sign. Nice little SPECCY twat has appeared since Friday! Bastards! BE CAREFUL ALL! So if you are going through Birmingham keep your speed down and eyes open. Tim :-(

Hi guys sorry about delay but I have looked into in car camera / video gear and having looked at some very expensive stuff eventually looked at budget gear and found the actual result quite similar. The links below are example pics only to give you all an idea but the actual equipment I have priced is slightly different in appearance but the same technically. Basically a permanantinstallation would follow the usual video in boot ( 12 v power supply required) a loose lead for quick connection to a monitor or portable tv. (for viewing recordings and setting camera up) and the actual camera secured to the passenger sun blind fixing. It may be preferred though to…

Dunno whether anyone is interested but this guy has copies (US/PAL/JAP) duplicator.uk@btinternet.com Tell him glenlewis@newyorkcity.com gave you his email address. Not expensive either Glen.

Anybody heard of "trust" products, particularly induction kits? If so, know who imports, where they are based? Thanks Russ

Has anyone had their wheel balanced 'on the car'? If so, were there any differences in the wheel balance from having them done off the car?

Morning people, I'm getting a little worried. When i take a left turn, i'm getting a clicking sound btu when i do a right its ok. Any ideas on what it could be? I think it might be the CV joints. If thats the case, does anyone know how much hey cost? Cheers Mansoor

Seen : One silver Zed with raised spoiler and rear tail light conversion heading east towards Jcn 5 of the M4 at 5:30 this morning. Was this anyone here.....?

Conforming to my reputation in my workplace and amongst my friends as a mine of (useless) information, I found the following information : http://l2.espacenet.com/dips/bnsviewer?CY=gb&LG=en&DB=EPD&PN=US5755101&ID=US+++5755101A1+I+ (I know its a big URL, but trust me) The information is something I came across whilst searching for an idea I had on the patent database. It explains the operation of one of the designs in quite good detail. You can search for the patent description on anything at : http://gb.espacenet.com/ Basically, if its interesting (and a gadget) it'll be protected (and described) in a patent. Post a reply i…

Hi guyZ, Just to let you know that I have finally got my O2 sensor replaced along with the PCV valves, fuel damper and fuel pressure regulator. Took about 8 hours to do the lot O2 sensor was the passenger side one and the injuries to my hands will not let me forget the difficulties for a month or so now... PCV valves were also a bit of a bitch and while I'm on it, the fuel parts were too. So why am I telling you all this??? Well its because the car now drives better than ever Also, just to say, if you do replace either the fuel parts or the PCVs, get all the appropriate tubing as well. When I took the pcv hoses off they literally fell apart in my hands.…

I've change the wheels on my Zed, so I have a set of good condition standard ones open to offers.
