never had a car with cruise control before,can someone tell me how to use it?:confused1:

Hi All, I have eliminated the hicas and have a lock out bar in place. Im thinking of replacing the hicas arms is this all i have to replace?? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Nissan-300ZX-Fairlady-Z32-Rear-Hicas-New-Ball-Joint-/280487836118?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item414e60b9d6 Cheers Dan

hey everyone, ive got the dreaded fuel leak and my car stinks of fuel every startup. could anyone tell me what id hose i need to buy? cheers :-)

I've read that these keys are like gold dust... Where can you get them from??

Is there anywhere you can get a DIN pocket with flip lid to fit the zed? I want to get a boost controller (I'm thinking Apexi AVC-R Black Edition) and I dont want to mess around with the interior too much adding bits on here and there so was I thinking of fitting the boost controller into a DIN pocket but one with a flip lid so that I can pull the lid down when the car is parked. Any thoughts?

Did the Z32 originally have a 2 din stereo unit from factory? :yes: Cheers guys.

Hi, I've just realised that my Toad ultrasonic sensors have been pushed under the interior trim, one is pretty crushed the other has been ripped away from the wiring. Anyway, I figured I'd go to the breakers and find some nice ones; snip them and wire into my current wiring. My question is will this work, does anyone know anything about ultrasonic sensors, they're all pretty much all the same right?

Fitted a courtesy light on my SWB as only the LWB's have them :clap: Just go on ebay and buy whichever takes your fancy, mine is here http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/FIAT-SEICENTO-INTERIOR-COURTESY-LIGHT-2001-2004-/190484028868?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item2c59bb9dc4 Wire it in to the relay behind the passenger seat, it will then come on and off when you open and close the boot as there is a switch incorporated in the boot lock mechanism. Don't forget a security measure also, as with the voltage drop if some loser opens the boot the alarm will trigger immediately. I might spray the surround of it black when it warms up :thumbup: Anyw…

checked that i had a sare tyre earlier and it looks like something of a morris minor, horrible narrow yellow thing! then i thought id just test if all the nuts were done up tight but cant get the supplied spanner/wrench onto the nut because they are so tight to the wheel. need to do something bout it sharpish or i'll be buggered if i get a puncture

where is the best place to buy the fog light replacement ducts from? seen some on fle-bay but are they any good?

ive just had my first drive in the z for 3 weeks . these things certainly know how to put a smile on your face . for sheer feel good factor these cars are awesome . the only downside was the petrol station . £1.32 a litre for optimax.

Managed to fit the four bluye LEDs in my dash without taking it too pieces! Only the bottom left hand one was slightly awkward :clap:

anyone know where i can get a tailgate/fuel flap cable,im assuming its just he one as the end has snaped of.cheers guys

have a jap spec tt with belt slots in the door cards.do the uk cars come without them or are they all the same?:helpsmilie:

some of my window and roof trims are cracking and revealing the bright chrome work underneath. how do you strip all the black plastic coating off ready to re-paint, some of it just crumbles off in the hand but alot of it is still well stuck on..

is it possible to fit one without taking the front bumper off? Because the guy who fitted the bodykit took the gaps out and i dont want to ruin the bodykit. cheers Jo

Not sure if this is normal, or someone could help me with the issue, but my car is building alot of pressure in the front water hose, so much so that it gets bent out of shape is rock hard and the car overheats, now im not sure if this is normal for the hose to get rock hard. hence this post, now if this is not normal, might it be the thermostat causing both problems? no water leaks, radiator is new, and heater matrix has been bypassed as it began leaking, also there are no kinks in the matrix bypass pipe causing and loss of water cycle.

Hi guys, merry Christmas to all! As a Christmas treat for me, whilst I was running the engine and checking the coolant, my car decided to lock both doors. Unfortuately I only have 1 set of keys and they were in the ignition. Hmph, disconnected the battery and the PTU to stop the engine etc and went to find my spare remote locking transmitter fob. It did nothing. So, I swapped the battery but of course this needs the fob to be resynched with the alarm. This didn't work either, totally dead, presumably because the igntion is still in the 'on' position the remote will not operate the central locking... So, the only option I can think of is to shove a screwdriver in…

Well got my rust free tail gate, which I have been looking for ages for one, I have a set of standard perfect rear lights and a power steering pump, so Iam nearly there ready for spray then on the road. Mark:-)

Does brand really matter? Ive asked for a postage estimate. Mark

My Car is finally away to the car park in the sky, I have a final picture taken by the wife as I was working, for me sad to see but hopefully in the future when finances prevail I will deffo get another. I have just subscribed but more than likely wont be around as much. I have wings/bonnet/targa tops/doors which I will list soon as well as a radiator and some other bits n bobs. Cheers John

I have an after-market wheel to fit (which currently has a Pulsar boss attached) and I'm looking at this - http://www.racerbits.com/servlet/Detail?no=558 Does it look to be ok for a N/A without cruise of air bag? Horrible centre badge I know... I've had probs in the past with boss's not cancelling the indicators etc...no tag on the bottom to cancel them.
