Hey guys , since i had my engine rebuilt i never had my speedo working and i finally got ' new' u.k clocks fitted yesterday from jeff , i had previously noticed that on a track place the revs would cut off at 4.5k at high speeds around 120mph , but it would get there in a blink of an eye. I never had this issue , i ordered a chip from the u.s to match the spec and bloke who tried fitting it just knackered the whole thing so i asked jeff for a chipped ecu and because the car has been running well i never really noticed such thing, so now im thinking could it be a limiter on the ecu itself? I can't really see anything else. Cheers in advance guys

Wish it was a real one but unfortunatly not. But was dragged out to local sunday market and picked up this. Made it a worthwhile morning out.

working on my zed today and i found an exhaust blow could not find the blow. so i took the hole exhaust of and striped of the lagging thats meant to act as an heat shead and found the exhaust down from the turbo bend was like a sponge. full of holes everyere, went up nissan whilst picking up new nuts and bolts ect asked for a price 595 quid. took it to me mate power and performance and he welded up a new stainless steel piece in 40 pound later and two hours on route home.

The Z is going white, so carbon GTR-35 bonnet vents or not?

Hi all, I have just put a aftermarket front bumper on and now the indicators don't work. I had to take off the bar behind that the fogs are attached to which had a wire with a block on the end of it, I have attached that to the plastic under guard. That is the only wire I have moved as far as I know. Anyone got any ideas? Cheers James

Hey guys, I am planning to change my tt back end to a na one. Was wondering if its worth keeping the tt parts? How much would tt subframe with diff and all the other parts sell for? Everything on the tt is really good except the hicas part has a slight play. Or is it better just to scrap it? Also any key tasks that might be worth doing with the swap? Bushes etc? Also wats better bushes or locking collars??

Hi, My car was recently dyno'd and setup by turbonoz and the max it ran was around 18psi, final figure which it was set to was a max of 17 and then 14.8 (1 bar). Recently i have noticed that no matter what setting i put my max or peak boost remains 14.3-6 and for the last few days my peak boost has come down too 14.0 psi.
