I'm considering making an offer on a secondhand 'ARC' oil cooler for an R34 GTR I'm guessing that the sandwich plate is going to be different however I think that the 'HEL' sandwich plate that I've already got for the Z32 would be compatable, as the braided hoses look like a fairly standard fit any suggestions?

How do you test a PTU 2? Thanks

I`m there Sunday if anyone wants to meet up. http://www.cpop.co.uk/

right has anyone run a Z on 10w-50 oil before? my whole cars been stripped back, new gaskets turbos, feeds and various other mods, ( its not finished yet as have run out of funds to get the last few bits, ) have been offered some Silkolene pro s 10w50 at £36 for 5litres oil on a group buy with my other club and wondering how the Z would cope with it.

Standard suspension front top camber adjustment not possible i was told, but it is apparently ?

After finding my plenum gasket was actually just silicone sealant, not to mention other really naff and totally unproffesional short cuts,( basically no gaskets/rubbers had been renewed when engine work was undertaken so have been gradually rectifying all this) i thought i`d delve deeper as i`ve been hearing a blow from drivers side area for a while. So after a lot of cursing and help from a mate finally managed to get this blooming turbo pipe off as i could see there seemed to be a lack of gasket..what a suprise..silicone sealant..again! What do you think i should say to the guy who owned the garage that carried out the work at the time and whom in my opinion is ulti…

Dogpole, Shrewsbury (Creative Audio)?

After reading the flash code from my ECU, it stated code 34, which is Det sensor, i then tested the O2 sensors using the ECU, the right one was fine, but the left one was reading lean (with ocasional blips to rich if the revs were blipped). my logic tells me that, if the left o2 sensor is saying lean (due to it being f**ked) then the ECU would put more fuel into the left bank, (hence my majorly over fueling) which would then possibly cause pre ignition (detenation) which would then come up with fault code 34. Does this sound possible? has anyone have any sources for any o2 sensors, its a manual twin turbo import. my local nissan place told me £117 + VAT, and the…

Decided to have a look at the rust on my rear drivers side arch and when cleaned up the area around the spots of rust i decided to see how far the filler from a previous repair had gone - it looks like the whole panel has had a light layer of filler with some thicker bits where it has perhaps been dented causing the rust in the first place. What would you do if you had discovered this (see pics) on your zed? Whats the recommended repair procedure? The car will be resprayed within the next few months anyway. Its got me wondering where else there's filler on the car! Look forward to your opinions. Cheers, James

hi all just fitted new hi flow rad on the zed, now heres my question the original clip (on left of rad) that the bottom hose clips into does not fit the bigger core rad so as i'm using silicone hoses not a hard pipe kit i'm left with the bottom hose blowing in the wind what is the best way to secure it?

Excuse me if this is in the wrong place, can't actually find a place to meet ups tho. I've come from the MR2 OC where they have monthly meets, regular drives out etc - is that the done thing here or is it less formal? Would love to meet up, see some other Zs.... Jane
