Hi guys, I’m after a little advice, I’ve recently purchased the Unorthodox Racing Pulley Set along with the associated belts etc. as I looking for ways to increase hp whist at the same time it just happens I need to swap the alternator belt anyway. Hence as to why I bought this kit. However, I’m now not sure whether this is a good or bad thing to do, the last thing I want to do is put additional pressure/stress on the crank or even other engine components themselves. Has anyone had one of these kits fitted and are they any concerns I need to be aware of? Generally is this a safe and effective modification? Cheers guys

Hi to you all! New member looking for his first SWB Manual n/a so TT.! Anyone know of anything around?? All help much appreciated! Thanks Dom

Evening all i just wanted to ask peoples experiences with their manual gearbox specifically how much torque they are running through it, hard shifts, launches ect ect. Has anyone opted for a different gearbox entirely after a certain power level uprgraded their gearset?

Hi, It’s probably been asked many times before but I’ve done a search and can’t find much. I can’t get my eBay cable to work with conzult. The cable is installed and showing at working on my pc but I’m still getting error 2 unable to connect no matter what I do. I’ve tried using all the USB ports. Anyone got any pointers?

OK before I ask the question...…..I'm never going to sell my car, its an automatic, I never race it or traffic light drag it, its a cruiser, a GT, I love it for it's style, its rarity, the laid-back driving position and lots of other reasons :-) It's market value to me is meaningless (much like a friends DB6 that he says he will be buried in !!) and truth-be-told few of our cars are truly OEM. I've thought about the possibility of changing to a different auto gearbox but got slapped down :-) So.…I'm wondering about changing the diff ratio to give it longer legs. It's 3.6....something at the moment. The other family car - a BMW 1 Series - is also an automatic wit…

Hi is there a supplier that anyone knows of that does a good deal on either replacing the Plastic windows in a convertible hood or alternatively a complete replacement hood. If anyone knows a reliable supplier that discounts to club members that would be even better Thanks for any info Best Regards Marc

I've just fitted bigger smic's, the original air ducts will fit back on. Will they help with the flow of air or restrict it as obviously they're much smaller? Should I leave them off? Thanks.

Having just spent a King's ransom on my car over the last year I'm damned if I'm going to let something as trivial as winter stop me from enjoying Nissan's finest !! That and the fact that my Mrs said if i wasn't going to actually drive it then what the hell was the point and I could forget about using her car now mine is sorted !!! However something that is cramping my pleasure is the legendary appalling headlights !! I'd be grateful to get any recommendations on the best bulbs I can use. It's a '95 TT JDM. Dipped beam, high beam etc please. I'm hoping that the latest possibilities available are a considerable improvement. Much appreciated guys. Just out i…

Hi everyone I have an issue with my 300 that is causing me a bit of a headache my car is a 3.0 v6 non turbo auto. When accelerating from a stand still the engine hesaties for a couple of seconds as if it was going to stall then it goes as it should I have been trying to find the issue for a few months now and it still doing it. One thing that I noticed is when the car is on idle the sound comeing out of the drivers side exhaust is normal but the sound comeing out of the passenger side exhaust sound very different its popping and banging. Can any one shed any light on why it's doing that or what could be causing it. Also one other strange thing is the e…

Evening all. I recently acquired a new cluster, which was advertised as some sort of UK/JDM hybrid. Now it has a UK speedometer, but what i want to know is if the odometer will read in miles or kilometres. So, question the is, is there anyway to tell by looking at the cluster, whether it will count in miles or KM's? I've taken some pictures of the odometer on the off chance this will help answer my question. Thank.

Hey everyone, I thought you all might get a kick out this abomination 300ZX which is going to be featured on "Wrench Everyday"'s YouTube channel. Anyways if you want to know the short of the video, a YouTuber named Tavarish who has a few project cars he features rebuilds on, including a a and a just to know a few, has just purchased for his second more budget friendly YouTube channel "Wrenches Everyday" a sad looking 300zx with a twist, its a VH45 powered 300zx but this car is a total mess, the original owner sold the car for $1500 USD as an unfinished project car which the owner was planning to install a diesel turbo onto his VH45 swap and then ma…
