Hi, I completely bodged my door and dash trims a couple of years ago with a kit from Leatherseats.com. So I now want it done properly. Can anyone recommend a good Car Trimmer in East Surrey/West Kent that does a good job and is reasonable in cost, please? Cheers Pilch

I currently have 225/45/17 which are lame as i get hardly any grip. I am looking to change it to 245/45/17. Would there be any problems with the speedo, i tried using some calculators and they say its about 2.8% difference. http://www.alloywheels.com/tyrecalc.asp What do you guys think?

Hey Guys, Might sound stupid but is there any way that you can mod the original exhaust to give good deep sound?? Cheers!

Anybody know where I can get a new one of these from? thanks, Dan

Who was it that does flocking? My mate wants his dash done, and i cant think who does it! Cheers

Can you please contact me on xxxxx. Thankyou.

Can someone post a couple of pics of what is under the boot carpet please. I've nowt so need to sort what i need and in the right place lol. cheers smithy

had a N/A front bumper and an older gentleman driving it i believe :) Seen this Morning at around 8'o'clock on the way to work. Driving first in front of it then next to it. :)

As above really, got the chance of one, I reckon at a not bad price. 3.0, 24v, 205 PS, big luxo-barg for the motorway. Just fancy something different. Any thoughts or experiences would be appreciated.

Hi, My driver's door drops a few mm when opened and resultantly has 'chaffed' a gouge out of the 'B' pillar. Can I loosen the top hinge where it bolts to the 'A' pillar and knock it forward a little bit to adjust without too much grief? By grief I mean having to remove wings or any other ancilliary parts. Or can/should the hinge pins be replaced? TIA.

Only noticed it this morning, hasn't done it before. Only comes on when I apply the brakes. What could this be? It doesn't happen all the time when I brake. Doesn't seem to have any effect on the cars behaviour at all.

quite alot of us with this sill problem as a number of threads popped up smithys sounds the best to me as this looks an expensive job from main dealers,i know if when removed the problem could be even worse and pricey all depends on your budget i suppose and many of us dont have the luxury of z specalists garages near by.

Is anyone wanting rear sill repair panels,Im going to be making a pair in afew days(next week at this rate!),if anyone is interested let me know and ill knock out some for them too.Ive seen the guy on ebay selling his,he has the swage line in his,i wont bother as i wont be cutting that far up as things arent THAT rotten lol,so no need for it,if you really need this swage,i can can add it extra.Cant say a price,its time and lime,as Ive not made them before,will be cheap though! Just a rough head count so ill know whether to bother or not,I make an sell a small batch run of repair panels for various classics now and again.Zed rear sills are no prob.

Well all back together, but on wrestling with the plenum, i chipped the paint on the rocker cover :thumbdown: Will have to mask everything off and prep and repaint that part, i cant be arsed to take it all off again :glare: All back together with new injector loom on, still got to finish the throttle cover project, but theres plenty of time for that when the engine is in the car. Need a few new hoses here and there with some new clips to finish the look.

I have got two Nissan replacement injector looms, three connectors on each one, but only two wires coming from them, where do they connect to on the old loom, I can't see where they go. Have looked in FAQ with no luck, can someone point me to a fitting guide. cheers Paul

As per the title, what was the factory stereo install on Fairlady & UK z32's???

I've decided that it is going to be at least 6 months till i get my zed back on the road, and i was wondering what you guys suggest to do before it goes off the road. For example, i remember reading that someone suggested filling your tank up with petrol so that evaporation doesnt occur leaving condensed water all around the tank. Ive also disconnected the battery to save that going dead. What else would you guys recommend??

finding it hard to get a inlet gasket for the top of the engine on its own can i use Rubber Gasket sealer of some type as ?

this from conceptzperformance says all panels available

Well I drove the car to the mechanics this morning, via the petrol station to make sure it had enough in it for the MOT. I thought I'd test out the dump valve and exhaust and now the throttle is alligned properly etc. WOW that car is powerful now. 2nd gear at around 20mph, no clutch movement, just foot down, spools up a little, then BOOM wheels spin like crazy and the car snakes up the road! I can't wait to get it back, although it might kill me :helpsmilie: Granted it's a little greasy out there this morning, but it WOW! Looks like will get her back either tomorrow or Wednesday, just depends how much rust is actually behind the sills for him to repair before he…

Need this gasket, anyone have it...... http://www.frsport.com/Nissan-T25-T28-2-Bolt-Turbo-Compressor-Inlet-Gasket-SR20DET_p_1137.html
