Trying to get the car ready for Japfest, all the bits I'm doing are going well. The problem is the paint, there is two weeks to go and it's not even at the painters yet!! Do I push him to get in done in 10 days as really wanted it done :confused1: Or get some Halfords tins and just paint the bumpers to match the bodywork until the proper paint with colour change???

Hi guys, Can anybody tell me if the EGR valve has been removed and a plenum bypass has been done? Also, how would I go about cleaning this up, plenum and block etc while this is sitting waiting to be put in? I bought this with everything on for £500 with tubs and all! 35,000 miles only... Guy paid £4000 for the engine but the car was rotten. ..... Now I've got it lol :gunsmilie: Just got to wait for my mate to get an engine off his engine stand *licks lips* Thanks for the help, Ant

The perspex strip on my uk was ok but quite scratched, until an hour ago, after trying to remove really delicatly, got to the last blue clip and CRACK. So go to remove my spare with break light of my jap breaker. This already was cracked. I now have 2 x rear perspex strips, one with brake light and the without. Both have split to the right of the light, in a vertical crack. a very clean break, when put together, all that is visible is a line, looks like a hair, its that thin does anyone know if the can be bonded back together, or glued with heat. I know Carmad may be looking at mocking one up. These are super fragile, but i was being careful, obviously not e…

Hey Guys, Wondering how hard it is to change the ac compressor part!

I'm going to make the most of the long weekend to give myself a good start on the black Z. Obviously the main reason is to get rid of the slow NA engine... and convert to Twin Turbo power!! :tt1: Over and above what modifications I had in the white Z, it will also now be sporting a lightweight Fidanza flywheel, lightweight crank pulley, Apexi AVCR boost controller, NA rear diff, new exhaust system, japspeed decats, Apexi multichecker to monitor the engine, Apexi super airflow converter, Apexi turbo timer, Apexi rev-speed meter, Greddy boost gauge, HKS oil temp gauge, HKS oil temp gauge, remapped ECU, braided clutch hose.. and probably a couple of other bits I've…

...g plate import, 2002 imported, i like it..lots haha...rd with black leather, manual box, it has one odd alloy, have to sort that, but everything else seems spot on...fancy cat back stainless system, lightweight propshaft, turbo timer, adjusteable dump valves, induction kit, unusual bonnet/nosecone and skitrts, pics to come....if i stop driivng it long enough haha..had it at mates garage and he says he has never seen one as solid...

Nice car who ever you are, I was in the silver vectra estate...I give you the thumbs up as you passed!!! ;-)

I personally prefer the LWB Z, Why do people prefer the SWB model? Is it just down the personal preference?

Hi, i'm fitting my new exhaust system tomorrow so had a look under the car today and noticed that the decats dont have the fittings for the 2nd set of sensors (after the cats)I'm guessing the car will run ok without these fitted? and there will be no warning lights permanently on?

Hi everyone, I am having a bit of bother removing my gear knob on my 1991 twin turbo uk spec!!! Its black and plastic and i cant budge it!! Any ideas?? cheers ed
