When re-sealing them, is it best to fit them not to tight until the sealant sets then torque them up? or should I torque them immediately? any advice appreciated.

Hi i have had my zed for a week now and when i bought it i had a fair bit of smoke on idle however i was given PCV's with the car which i changed and gave me a reduction in smoke on idle, i changed these roughly 250 miles ago but i still have some smoke on idle (from O/S exhaust) BUT when i leave the air con on auto there is no smoke? there is also no smoke on slow driving nor on fast driving????? also the idle is a bit all over the place some times its at 1100 then 1500 them some times 2000 and with air con off it varies from 900 to 1200 rpm its really confusing me???? any help be good?? only smokes when idle is at 900 rpm! and only from the drivers side exhaust.

this isnt a for sale just wondering what you think been looking on piston head and theres a couple of n/a's for sale in worse condition than mine with higher milage is 2500 too much for a decent n/a everythings in good working order bar some vibration(with ill be mentioning)and the sterring wheel and 1 headrest is a bit worn 90000miles

Hi, right the car has remote central locking, so did'nt realise when i bought it but the key starts the car but wont open any doors or boot, should I take it I only got the spare, can you get the original fron nissan or not? its a uk car. Cheers Mark

Does anyone know What larger brake discs is he best to put in and is it really works?

Well, Fast Show at santa pod was Great! never been on the quarter mile before :D Got a bit greedy and had 8 runs :p Heres my times, i highlighted my best and worked out the averaged.

right i got a wee problem with vibration from the middle to back of the car..i took some advice from a local mecanic..i said to him i thought id might be the center prop bearing after reading a few other similar topics..anyhoo he told me to drive to the speed the vibration happens the knock it into nuetrall and see if it still happens if it stops then its not the bearing.. tryed this today and the vibs never stoped.. everything seams to be in order with the rear end tyres good allignment/balencing good..bushes are ok and everythings tightend up what do you think?

the item i told you about yesterday the guy lives 5 minutes from me thats auction snipe for ya :)

since im starting a new job my weekly income is going up quite a bit i dunno what to do im getting quite attached to the N/A but should i spend some money on it or sell up and get a TT..if i was going for a tt it have to be a manual(sorry lee) any opinions bear in mind the insurance on the NA right now is fantastic and with fuell prices being what they are im in two minds plus it have to be the right tt not just any old shoe quite fance the swb tt

Pictures as promised mate..

Basically I need a set!-what's available nowadays?-can you still get SPL,Powertrix etc?-a bit worried about the jap-bay ones!:ninja:

put a battery on it and a half turn is all it took to start!,been stood outside over the winter,hasnt been running for around 6months...Ive promised myself now to get it done up for the summer!lolThis year for sure. The tyres were flat on two rims,and wouldnt take air 'cos theyd come off the bead,had to remove them to re-seat them,so while i was at it,i tried on some wheels to see what look im going for.The chrome Workmeisters are 19x10,the gold Rays are 18x10,ofcourse its on a woodenblock so you have to 'squint ' to imagine what itll be like dropped to the ground on coilovers!:hammer:

Finally now spending some decent money on my ZTT, started by ripping off the bumper and one of the wings to be sorted and clean up and install new BOV's, then ended up with a nice suprise i did not know about!:

Just driving our people carrier back from town to Blaxton and you were headed towards the Finningley lights turning in between Blaxton and Auckley?
