guys before trying to fit these could someone tell me the 'A' measurement i need to know if these will clear my 18" wheels or will i need some spacers? any help much appreceated :)

Yup that's right. My tyres are catching on the arches, so I need a way to stiffen/raise the rear end. I have just bought these tyres so I'm looking for the cheapest & easiest route. I have fitted some G14 spring assisters but they don't lift enough.

Hi! Had the Z for a month or so now, love it to bits but the bloody sqeeling of the belts was driving me nuts, so bad I almost sold her! Just sorted it out now, back to being a good bitch! The only niggling thing in her now is a sticking drivers seat belt.:p

...when youve got a Z engine bay! :rofl: :rofl: :rofl: + =

My oil pressure goes up from cold but reads zero when been driving about 10 mins. any reason for this?

...located at the back of the engine bay in the centre - wiring has snapped at the top and the bottom. any idea what it is? im pretty confident its not the idle control switch as thats yellow and situated further along.

anyone going to be there. ill be there from about 8.30

Anyone know how to identify the difference between auto and manual 300zx standard turbos and what the difference is between them other than 'bigger/smaller' ? Help appreciated!

Right guys i have been thinking about Performance of the Zed and mods in the Future.... So what is one of the main Restriction for power on our cars.... INJECTORS!!!! As turbos max out at 18psi, what holds you back is our Injectors which max out at 14.5psi! So next size up = 555cc injectors which seems excessive on an slightly Upgraded setup and requires specific chip for fuelling etc etc!And have you seen the f**king price of them!! Robbery or what!! So having a browse i see that the 350z (not a typo) injectors you can have Nismo 440cc injectors for around 1/2 the price for a set of some (300zx)Nismo 555cc injectors! Now as the injectors are only a small amount bigg…

I'm starting to think of the benefits of registering the V8 as a kit car. You need 8 points to retain your age related plate but i can sort of say that i don't quite meet that: chassis or body shell (body and chassis as one unit - monocoque ie direct replacement from the manufacturer) (original or new) = 5 points suspension = 2 points axles = 2 points transmission = 2 points steering assembly = 2 points engine = 1 point Chassis i can't say has changed tbh, it's the same although the front subframe is a one off. Suspension is aftermarket (springs and shocks) but ultimately it's a standard setup. Axles are the same BUT the hicas has been r…

Looking around my interior, the worst item is definitely the worn interior door handles. Read on here that the best replacements are the Terrano II chrome handles. Is this correct and are any mods/additional bits required? Where's the best place to get them and how much should I pay? Thanks.
