Who has fitted one of these carbon / wood dash kits ? Any good, any pics anyone ?

I am about to remove my manual box but I have it in my head that a few years ago when I was goin through a cluch changing phase (fitted gearbox on and off about 4 times due to different clutch issues) I never drained the oil but yet removed all lines. I did do a gearbox oil change but only when happy with clutch. Can I remove the box without draining? I do expect a bit of spillage when the bottom line is removed. Think I'm loosing it. :pinch:

This colour is taking over my life!!!!:ohmy:

could you please email me at znut@300zx.co.uk and leave your contact details...... cheers

Hi, If I decide to put a tt engine in my n/a will it fit straight in or is the bulkheads ect different? Thanks Mark

ive just upped the boost on 91 auto and every time i accelerate or over take it drops down and the tail end keeps spining out, i have a few mods (decat down pipes, mongoos system,hks filter,impul high power ecu and boost upped to 14psi). i have 255 conental sport contact 2 tyres on 17s and standard shocks and elbich springs. i hear a better suspension set up can give you more traction? any ideas? its a bit dangerous:lol:

I know the title doesn't really narrow it down, spotted a White zed outside a pub in Forest Row, Highgate?!

Would it be best to put on my PAS pump and alt. before the engine goes back in or is it easy when the engine is in?

Saw you I was going clockwise, wash your car Dude! UK spec Lwb, in the Fast lane!:scared:

ive been told my cars had tt calipers fitted its an ,na,anyway to confirm this.

mine went out long time ago not wired up correctly with invertors,has anyone managed to find an alternative?

Yes! I know it's been a long while since I've been on the site. If I'm honest, once the car went last August it just didn't feel right some how. I ended up getting buried in work to take my mind off the fact that I actually let my car go. Anyway, It's great to see the site still going strong. Noticed quite a few of our old members have also sold their cars recently. I hope to meet up with some of my old North East mates through the summer. Might even bum a lift to JAE '10 for the day in the summer to catch up.

Mate of mine spotted a red TT zed with high level spoiler last week filling up at BP garage in Basildon, anyone??? He ran up to it thinking it was me but mine's still off the road.:lol:

A while ago, there were a number of posts suggesting that some of you were going to paint the sections that go across the roof (either side of the glass panels) glossy black. Did anyone actually do this and do you have photos of what the car looks like with these painted black, both with the panels in and out?

Zs been garaged for a couple of months. Took it out tonight and had frightening problem with headlights. All seemed well on dipped headlights, went to full beam - still fine. A few minutes later, switched back to dipped and had no headlights at all!!! Flicked the stalk a few times - full beam always reliable but dipped only returned one time in 4(ish) flicks, the other 3, no headlights. The only reliable way to return to dipped lights seems to be to pull the stalk right up (headlight flash) and when I let it go, I have dipped headlights. Too dark to look tonight - will try tomorrow. I'm guessing it's the stalk. Sealed unit? Any way to use contact cleaner? E…

Recognise anything at the start of this video? ;) [YOUTUBE] [/YOUTUBE]

Why oh why is it that when I want to buy something from blokes on this site I get the same answer..." make me an offer ". But when someone wants something from me they ask "what do you want for it mate". In Yorkshire we have a system called buying and selling for a set price. If you are selling something and you want £10 for it you say " the price is £10 if you want it give me £10 ". This also has the opposite affect so if one wants to buy something one knows the price ie £10! If we could roll this system out to the lesser counties business would become much less complicated I think :clap::thumbup1::biggrin:

If I decide to keep the car as a n/a, what is the most bhp, which can be achieved. and will it be pretty quick, I know it wont be a fast as a turbo just wondering. Its an auto but will be doing the manual conversion Thanks for the advice Mark

Have Teain monoflex on the car at the moment. Intend to use the car a bit more this summer now I've sold the 350z and find the Tein's a little to harsh. So need some suggestions / advice to keep it firm but a little softer and more country road friendly. Whats the standard set up spring rates? Options I guess are Eibachs and std shocks or new coilovers but softer spring rate. Anyone know std spring rates, Eibach rates, other coil over set ups?
