Hi guy´s!! I have a little problem... The stock recirc valve has been deleted? This is my car now... And the installations in other cars..(but I don´t see much...) THANKSS!!!

I bought back the Blue Flame exhaust from my old Z (thanks Pete:bow:) and had it fitted yesterday..... ......plus I bought a black strip for the rear spoiler from MJP, along with a new "twin turbo" badge. I stuck them on this morning - I reckon it does look better by finishing off the shape of the rear lights:cool: It was pretty fiddly to get it smooth though and I reckon I could have done a better job if I'd tried a bit harder! And I know it's a bit dirty but it's going in to have the the driver's door painted on Thursday so I'll clean it when I get it back!! Richard:hyper:

Called Nissan but they said these parts are no longer supplied and cannot be ordered. So tried the local scrap yard and amazingly they had a Terrano II in. Even more shocking was the fact that it had 2 chrome handles still fitted! Lucky or what? Removed both handles (still in plastic housing). £20 for the pair. Would have taken any others if available to help out any other members but will keep on checking regularly as I know most people want them! The question now is: how do I fit them? The handle seems to be secured in to the surround by a pin that seems to be embeded in to the plastic. Any advice before I start to destroy the thing?

Saw you yesterday, 2.10.09 7am. Nice looking with vented nose panel. Al.

Hi guys. I need some info from the brake gurus on this site as im not to good with this: Well i have a chance to get hold of some aston martin vanquish brakes at what i think is a good price, £400, what use think? I need to know about how to go about having brackets made up, is this easy to do? Can anybody on this forum make me brackets? Also what discs should i then go for? Also again, most importantly do you think they will fit inside my 18" GTR alloy wheels? I think these would look really smart on my car to be honest so im very tempted by them. Some info on them; BOTH ARE 13CM FROM THE CENTRE OF MOUNTING HOLES BOTH BACK AND FRONT ARE …

Hi all, spent the day washing and waxing the Z today and there are a few areas which are seriously letting me down. I got rid of pratically all the swirl marks and minor scratches and scrapes, but there are 4 areas in particular that I have issues with, mainly due to fading. I have called them the 'plastic' parts of the body though there is prob a better term for them somewhere. They are; 1 - The lower part of the front bumper, its also cracked but at least if I could get it sprayed or do something to it it would make it look miles better! Is it better to replace or spray? Can the bottom piece come off seperate or is it all part of the front bumper? In other words to…

Hiya mate any chance i can have a quick word with you.... can you pop us your number and email it to me on faisalzx2000@yahoo.co.uk Cheers Fas

Hah!! Made you look!!!! Thought I'd post an update on my rear end as I cleaned it up a bit!! I removed the wiper and squirter as you may have seen. I have since decided to ditch the grommet idea for the rear screen and instead have used Tiger Seal. All I did was place some tape underneath the tailgate to sop the tiger seal from dripping through, injected the tiger seal into the hole in a thin layer and allow to set. The next day i removed the tape from underneath then layered some more seal into the hole, this time strengthening it with a metal plate to give rigidity. The following day I filled in some more so that the seal was proud of the screen and the…

Hi A question for all you auto electricians out there, I have got a Boost gauge with a boost nipple out the back and 3 wires Black, Red, White, Instructions say connect Black to earth, Red to ACC (ignition accessory feed) and the White to the pos (+) of the battery. When i wired it up i only had ground and Acc feeds so i wired up the red and white together My one complaint to the supplier was that although i could now see the outer gauge numbers, i could not see the needle. they then sent me the instructions and said "have you wired it up correctly" obviously i hadn't so i spent today re-wiring it, However still no needle illumination, thats another story..…

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?
