FT as they say in the trade or 1 dugga! :rofl:

sleeving is a last resort and very expensive.as far as im aware ive never heard of home sleeving kits.sleeves are not car specific but ordered by size and machined by an engine shop to fit then bored .most engines can take a .5 overbore and the manufacturer will state the oversizes in their manual.if you have any doubts on the condition of your block have the machine shop run a mercer gauge down the bores to check for uneven wear.the pots may be in tolerance and just need honing.

your welcome bud old trick of the trade thats got me out of a S**T situation a few times.

karl you could try infinity in Yate just outside Bristol.I know some people with their exhausts and they were very pleased with the quality and price.

it al depends on what other mods you intend to do and what psi you intend on running.the stock pistons are only good for 380-400bhp.as the crank and rods are forged anyway they have been used up to 450 and beyond so ive heard.the sport 500s are capable of this sort of power with other mods like injectors,exhausts,intercooler etc.if you just want a more reliable faster spooling turbo that bolts on with no mods then the sport 500s are a good choice as they give plenty of scope for further mods in the future.

you could weld an m8 nut to the end of the stud.works a treat even when they are seized.

kh3 is probaly a uk code.mine j spec grey looks different to uk greys.mine is kh2 as well.

fitting a brembo 350z upgrade to my car and was wondering if id need a skyline spacesaver to accomadate the larger discs if i should get a puncture??

Do you know where knole lane is?

I live 5minutes from there.those two cars belong to friends of mine.my cars a grey jap tt manual.the yellow zed is an impul 932s quite a rare car.

whereabouts are you in Bristol.I live in Brentry,north Bristol.

sorry my last post had a stutter in it!!!! :wack:

when you want the want the engine done pm funki si he knows someone. ;)

you shouldnt need a zed mechanic to sort this any decent old skool fix and not just replace mechanic should do be able to do this.the fundamentals of a g/box are all the same its just the gear train layout that varies.

from what youve described id say layshaft bearing but this is not a usual z32 fault.

Thanks for your advice.

Hit the wrong currency button bud.its getting late!!!!

The gtr upgrade smithy sells uses skyline discs with an adaptor to move the stock caliper.Im going down the other route using 350z 12.75" track rotors and a caliper bracket.all sourced from the USA.both are a vast improvement on the stock set up.

si when you say b+b is that Billy Boat exhausts.surely they cost more than $500 or have you been searching for bargains again?

sorry i dont taff.its a manual and it has targas.cracking car and its just getting an engine rebuild. :dance:

what psi boost requires the use of cometic head gaskets.my new tubs will run 22psi according to Z1 in the states.i planned on using stock ones when i rebuild the engine as ive been told they will take it.????

I have a mate who has one.came with a chipped ecu,induction kit and cat back exhaust oh and a very hard suspension set up.his car is a 932s swb tt in pearl yellow.

on any renault 16v youll find an e torx bung at the front of the block next to the cast web for the gearbox .youll need a pin that drops into a drilling in the crank.

get it shipped to your relatives then have it sent by the good ole us parcel service its very cheap if your not in a rush.takes about 5-8weeks.it will probaly halve the shipping cost.the import duty wont be much.budget on about 10% of the value in british pounds.

thanks for that bud.much obliged.
