... Made some great progress today test fitting the new Rad and the additional Autobox oil and engine oil rads as well. Still work in progress but... It all looks pretty good with FMIC taped in place temporarily - I need to do this as I am starting to fabricate the (stillen) bumper to supply enough air to the right places now. Just awaiting delivery from Dan of the BELTS and the injector seal kit and then it will be a case of taking two days off to finish polishing the plenum - lol!!! :nana2: If anyone is interested I can post some pics... :D;) (tease) :slap:

as a just incase option. what are compatible geraboxes and or what needs replacing /swapping over on a box are rb25 boxes the same , how hard would it be to fit another "nissan" box to the z etc etc

Spotted you this morning, i was southbound in my 300. Al.

Well my bodykits will be getting removed, so when it goes back on will need to be a respray on the white. So what i was thinking is if anybody has any good ideas on a colour to change the white 2? I was thinking just staying white and having it a sort of ice white, like a nurinburg vxr or an audi white.. whats your thought?

hi everyone, could someone help me with a bit of advice,what is the difference between the n/a and tt auto boxes,also has anyone get a standard centre rear light lense for sale,thank's for any help.

really is the wrong time for this to happen to me! i have a noise in my z. yesterday while pulling away from a set of lights (sensibly not hard ) i had a bang from under the car. pulled over and couldn't see anything unusual or oil etc so carried on my journey. (gears changing fine etc) well today been doing a little driving around shopping etc and there is a noise that has developed under the car. this only happens in first gear when coasting in gear (clutch in or out) and sounds like a rapid timnny knocking noise! you can feel it through the gear leaver if you push forward and hold it in gear. also if you do a slow gearchange while rolling into 1st the no…

There was a car at Jae today which had a carbon bonnet with bonnet struts fitted. I have been told that you can not fit a bonnet strut to a carbon bonnet as it will damage it. However this guy had not attached the strut to the bonnet but had made a bracket which was fixed to the brackets which hold the bonnet on. Very good idea and a solution to people wanting struts on a carbon bonnet.

Well...Just got back. What a fantastic weekend, even though I'm knackered. Firstly I want to say a huge CONGRATULATIONS to JASON FARROW, for Winning BEST CAR OF THE ENTIRE JAE SHOW, Which is an awesome achievement, as the competition was strong. and This is great news for the ZED, as it means that a 20 year old car can still show the new boys how things are done.

How long to take out the damaged one and replace on a 1990 tt, what does it entail ?

Might be of interest to somebody?????? Good deal or a bad one??????? What do you guys think??????

Been Looking at colours to spay the yellow Na I've got, I was looking at the Lime Gold concentrate which I could mix up with my own laqure. Has any body tried doing this and would it be cost effective?? Or would I be better spaying it the pearl yellow it already is?? (which I really am not keen on) any other ideas?? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/HOUSE-OF-KOLOR-KANDY-KONCENTRATE-LIME-GOLD-2oz-KK02CO3_W0QQitemZ270372210042QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUK_Body_Shop_Supplies_Paint?hash=item3ef370857a&_trksid=p3286.c0.m14

been trying to track down a few running issues today and made a bit of progress. changed the plugs as it had a set of pfr6b11 s in but this has not improved the idle really. so i made up a pressue tester. first major leak was from the n/s turbo feed (the concitenered section) this is never under boost so i doubt that this will help much. there are no other leaks from the front. there are several at the back-one i think is from the idle valve area which i have removed before so i will take this off again and re seal up. i also noticed a bubbling noise which i guess must be coming from the cam covers as the crank case will be pressurised. i do…

I'm hopefully going to get my 99 spoiler fitted soon. Is that something I need to tell the insurance about, seeing as it's kind of stock? Guess the safe thing would be to ring them and explain what it is and see what they say. Have other people had to declare it as a mod?

Hi all, Wheels balanced, followed by alignment and still she pulls to the left :) and brakes unevenly. What else could it be. New tyres on the front, rear look even. Running on 225/50/16's. Could this be a steering rack issue? Suspension related? The steering wheels predictably shakes at 80mph and nothing has changed since the balancing/alignment last weekend. Any ideas? Thanks, Alex

I wonder if anyone can confirm if my ECU is an unmodified stock version off a 1994/95 TT auto? [ATTACH]50391[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]50392[/ATTACH] Also, does anyone know what this setting is on the side of the ECU? [ATTACH]50393[/ATTACH] I'm seriously thinking about changing to a JWT ECU and swap the whole thing out. Is this the way to go or is there a cheaper way that achieves the same outcome? Many thanks, Alex

nice picks lovely zeds and great weather wish I was there:)

hello can someone tell me what the detonation senor circiut is fault number 34 it came up on ecu checked again came 55 dont under stand :bow:

fitted my carbing strut bar the other day and im concerned by the threads on the shock turret mounts... as you can see, the thread isnt into what i would class, in my line of work, as 'in safety'. 1.5 threads should come through or its a no go. should the carbing have a different type of nut to fasten it down? cheerZ

Im interested in a car Clicky which looks good on paper. I've chatted to the owner, he seems like a straight up guy, etc, etc. He informs me that the only current issue with the car, aside from a couple of rust bubbles, is that the overdrive currently isnt working. More specifically, gears 1-3 are fine, but it wont go into fourth. He doesnt recommend I drive it up motorways or A roads accordingly. He knows a guy who works for a transmission specialist who can supposedly fix it for £150-200 who he says would do a very good job. Has anyone experienced this problem before? Does the price sound reasonable (for the fix job)? He says he'll take me to his local tr…
