I need a rear bumper registration light any idea on where and which would suit as I'm stumped.

as above got caliper assembly & rotor off + tie rod ball joint, just got the lower ball joint & kingpin lower nut & the actual removal of the hub & steering knuckle assembly to go..... Question is how do I separate the assembley once the king pin & the lower arm nuts are undone ? do I need spring compressors or is it a case of a long bar pushed down on lower arm & lift off??? Hope this makes sense..... Cheerz Jamez

For those that missed it yesterday I smashed my bumper so it looked like this But today I've been busy and it now looks like this I'll update more on the progress as I go along.....

Ive had 5 zeds in the past including my current one...1st was a manual in 2001 then 3 auto,s and now my latest S2 manual.Ive always been the 1st to jump on stage and fly the flag for the slush boxes but after a good run tonight in my latest manny i can honestly say they are a complete diferent driving experience and bring the car alive like you would,nt believe.Far more sure footed in to bends and out the other side and the power delivery is like night and day...fantastic:thumbup1: For anyone thinking of getting rid of the Auto and converting or changing car then my advice would be to do it and re-kindle the love for these great cars as they were meant to be...

hey guys, for some time iv been needing a new compressor for my air con and i finally got a second hand one of eBay. My question is how hard should it be to turn by hand? because when i got mine it i had to use a socket to turn it. iv repaired and gassed ac systems loads of times before but never on a zed and I'm positive i should be able to turn it using one finger. iv since filled it with pag oil and loosened it up but still not 100% about fitting it and contaminating the rest of my system if it eats itself. any suggestions would be appreciated thanks :D

If anyone was going to put a pair of vents into their bonnet, where do we think the best place might be to position them...? Would they be better at the front or at the back (either side of the bulge) so as to evacuate some heat from the turbos a bit quicker? Any thoughts?

Just seen a J Reg silver zed on station road, I was in my van, looked a nice clean one :)

In an effort to try and reduce ever spiralling costs Bob has decided not to have Ben and the Eurospec guys provide full "on Event" support, although they are still preparing the car beforehand. When Bob first started out on trackdays I just went with him and we did all our own work. This time I am delighted to announce that I have enlisted Paul. (111Mattin111) to join me on the team. This will allow Bob to focus solely on driving.. As I am now over 65 I felt the need for some extra help especially if we have to do multiple wheel changes on top of the usual stuff so Paul fitted the job description perfectly.:thumbup1: Im sure he will be a great asset . Paul will …

My own stupid fault, not checking where I was driving. I'm so pissed off with myself :mad: :cursing: :censored: :cry: :hang: [ATTACH=CONFIG]73342[/ATTACH] Definitely not repairable this time, can't cover it up with duct tape for a while and then get it bodged, it is well an truly gone. I'm not even sure I even picked all the pieces up, indicator's ok, and nothing else is damaged, but the ****ing things only a couple of months fresh :cry: :cry: :cry:

Hi! I had helpful responses to my last request for advice (thanks guys) but made the mistake of burying a second topic in my post. Seemed a good idea to make it a topic all on its own! I'm OK with my brake set-up generally (floating Brembo discs and AP 6-pots with Ferodo DS2500 at the front; grooved discs with standard Nissan calipers at the back; braided lines and Dot5.1 fluid) but the pads on the back are completely anonymous and look standard. What do people use on the back for fast road/occasional trackday use? The Ferodo website is completely silent on Z32 rear pads. I've think read I've read that the rear calipers are the same as the Skyline or somet…
